3. Have TCP/IP installed and configured with an IP address. 

 

The IP address for each PC may be a fixed IP address or one that is obtained from a DHCP server. If using 

a fixed IP address, it is important to remember that it must be in the same subnet as the router. The default 

 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Using the default 

configuration, networked PCs must reside in the same subnet, and have an IP address in the range of 

192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254. However, you’ll find that the quickest and easiest way to configure the IP 

addresses for your PCs is to obtain the IP addresses automatically by using the router as a DHCP server. 

 

If you are unable to access the web configuration interface, check to see if you have any software-based 

firewalls installed on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the 192.168.1.1 IP address of 

MH-1000. 

 

The following sections outline how to set up your PCs for TCP/IP networking. Refer to the applicable 

section for your PC’s operating system. 

Before you begin, make sure that the TCP/IP protocol and a functioning Ethernet network adapter is 

installed on each of your PCs. 

 

The following operating systems already include the necessary software components you need to install 

TCP/IP on your PCs: 

 

- Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP 

- Mac OS 7 and later 

 

Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or through MH-1000. To configure other 

types of workstations, please consult the manufacturer’s documentation. 

1.  Go to Start / Control Panel (in Classic 

View). In the Control Panel, double-click 

on Network Connections. 

2.   Double-click Local Area Connection.
