Configuring the PC
To be able to access the modem's built in web pages, the IP address for the PC must be
on the same IP net as the modem. A recommended way is to configure the PC as a DHCP
client and use the DHCP server in the modem to get a correct IP address.
If you are unsure how your PC is configured you can use the following instructions to
check, and maybe change, your settings.
Check TCP/IP settings:
1
From the Start menu select Settings then Control Panel.
2
Double click on the Network icon and the "Network" dialog box appears:
Figur 3: Network dialog box

Select the TCP/IP protocol (together with the name of the type of physical network
adapter installed in your PC). See the above example.
Click the Properties button and the "TCP/IP Properties" dialog box will appear.

5
Select the IP Address tab and verify that "Obtain an IP address automatically" is
selected. If not, then select this button and click OK.
6
You are now back in the "Network" dialog box. Click OK.
7
Close the Control Panel window.
8
If you made any changes, some configuration files will be copied on your hard disk
and if a "Settings Changes" message asks if you wish to restart your computer you
should answer Yes.
