Configuring Client PCs

TCP/IP Configuration

To access the Internet through the Gigaset Router, you must configure the network set-
tings of the computers on your LAN to use the same IP subnet as the Gigaset Router. The
default network settings for the Gigaset Router are:
IP Address: 192.168.2.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
These settings may be changed to suit your network requirements, but
you must first configure at least one computer as described in the chapter
i
"Configuring the Gigaset Router" to access the Gigaset Router's web con-
figuration interface (see page 13).
If you have not previously configured TCP/IP for your computer, refer to "Configuring Cli-
ent TCP/IP" on page 47.
All PCs connected to the Gigaset Router must be in the same IP subnet as the Gigaset
Router. You can set the IP address for client PCs either by automatically obtaining an IP
address from the Gigaset Router's DHCP service or by manual configuration. See "Setting
up TCP/IP to Work with the Gigaset Router" on page 50.
