PC Configuration

This Chapter details the PC Configuration required on the local ("Inter-
nal") LAN.

Overview

For each PC, the following may need to be configured:
• TCP/IP network settings
• Internet Access configuration
• Wireless

configuration

Windows Clients

This section describes how to configure Windows clients for Internet access via the
Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router.

The first step is to check the PC's TCP/IP settings.

The Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router 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 Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router settings, and the
default Windows TCP/IP settings, no changes need to be made.

• By default, the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router 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 Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem

Router

• The

DNS should be set to the address provided by your ISP.

If your LAN has a Router, the LAN Administrator must re-
configure the Router itself. Refer to Chapter 8 - Ad-
vanced Setup for details.
