Chapter 4
PC Configuration
This Chapter details the PC Configuration required on the local ("Internal")
LAN.
Overview
For each PC, the following may need to be configured:
•
TCP/IP network settings
•
Internet Access configuration
•
Printer setup
•
Wireless configuration
Windows Clients
This section describes how to configure Windows clients for:
•
Internet access via the UniGateway EH-2101W
•
Sharing the Printer connected to the UniGateway EH-2101W.
The first step is to check the PC's TCP/IP settings.
The UniGateway EH-2101W 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 EH-2101W settings, and the default Windows TCP/IP
settings, no changes need to be made.
•
By default, the EH-2101W will act as a DHCP Server, automatically providing 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 EH-2101W
•
The DNS should be set to the address provided by your ISP.
If you wish to check your TCP/IP settings, the procedure is described in the following sec-
tions.
If your LAN has a Router, the LAN Administrator must re-
configure the Router itself. Refer to Chapter 8 - Ad-
vanced Setup for details.
