Step 3

Configure PC Network Settings

The Router can be configured easily using a standard web browser to access the web-based manager. Use the

web-based manager to establish the initial ADSL connection.

Make sure the Router and the Manager PC are connected directly to each other via an Ethernet connection (see

Step 1), and that they are both isolated from any existing LAN. The Manger PC should have a suitable web

browser installed (see Additional Requirements).

The Router will act as a DHCP server by default. In order to simplify this procedure, it is advisable use the

DHCP server function. The Manager PC must be configured to obtain an IP address from the Router. The

following section explains how to do this.

The DHCP server function can be disabled if you prefer to manually set LAN IP addresses on your network.

Your User’s Guide explains how to manually assign IP addresses on your LAN.

Configure Manager PC

Configure the Manager PC to obtain an IP address by performing the following steps:

1. In Windows 95/98, click on the START button,

go to Settings and choose Control Panel.

2. In the Control Panel window, double-click on the

Network icon.
