Chapter 4
PC Configuration
This Chapter details the PC Configuration required on the local ("Inter-
nal") LAN.
Overview
For each PC, the following may need to be configured:
TCP/IP network settings
Internet Access configuration
Wireless configuration
Windows Clients
This section describes how to configure Windows clients for Internet access via the
WBR-3600 Router.
The first step is to check the PC's TCP/IP settings.
The WBR-3600 Router uses the TCP/IP network protocol for all functions, so it is
essential that the TCP/IP protocol be installed and configured on each PC.
TCP/IP Settings - Overview
If using the default WBR-3600 Router settings, and the default Windows
TCP/IP settings, no changes need to be made.
By default, the WBR-3600 Router will act as a DHCP Server, automatically provid-
ing a suitable IP Address (and related information) to each PC when the PC boots.
For all non-Server versions of Windows, the default TCP/IP setting is to act as a
DHCP client.
If using a Fixed (specified) IP address, the following changes are re-
quired:
The Gateway must be set to the IP address of the WBR-3600 Router
The DNS should be set to the address provided by your ISP.
If your LAN has a Router, the LAN Administrator must re-configure
the Router itself. Refer to Chapter 8 - Advanced Setup for details.
