The simplest way to configure the PC/laptop for use with the 1420 Wireless
Gateway is to use the Network Assistant installed from the CD included with
the 1420 Wireless Gateway.
Configuration of the gateway is done through its web interface. To access the
device, you must create a private LAN with a subnet of 192.168.1.XX. The
gateway will appear on this LAN at the IP address 192.168.1.10.
1. Using the supplied cross-over Ethernet cable, attach your PC to the
1420 Wireless Gateway's P1 receptacle.
2. Launch the Network Assistant on your PC/laptop by double-clicking
on its desktop icon or by selecting it from the start menu.
3. If prompted, select the network adapter that you connected to the
1420 Wireless Gateway.
4. Click on the Direct button to establish a direct connection to the 1420.
When you are ready to remove the PC from the 1420 first open the Network
Assistant and select Normal to return the settings of the PC/laptop to their
original values. To check the connection, proceed to step 5 below.
The PC/laptop address and host settings can also be changed manually using
the following procedure for Internet Explorer on Windows XP. The procedure
for other operating systems and web browsers may vary slightly:
1. On the PC/laptop, install the Java Plug-in found on the CD provided
with the 1420. The Plug-in can also be found at http://java.com/
