To connect the Base Station to the Internet, you 
need to set its IP address and make DNS settings.

The [Internet Connection] frame allows you to set 
an IP address for your Base Station, according to 
your network environment. You can also check the 
Base Station’s MAC address for the wired LAN. 
To determine the address to set, contact your ISP 
or refer to the instructions supplied with your 
modem or router.

1

Select whether to assign an IP address to the 
Base Station automatically using the DHCP 
function of your router or modem or to assign 
an IP address manually.
If you select [Automatic IP Address 
Configuration (DHCP)], the router’s DHCP 
server will automatically assign the [IP 
Address], [Subnet Mask] and [Default 
Gateway]. 
If you select [Manual], assign the proper 
values in the [IP Address], [Subnet Mask] and 
[Default Gateway] fields.
At the time of purchase, this item is set to 
[Automatic IP Address Configuration 
(DHCP)].
