OBTAINING A DYNAMIC IP ADDRESS

Residential gateways and broadband routers will automatically assign IP addresses to the computers on the network, using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) technology. If you are using a DHCP-capable gateway or router you will not need to assign static IP addresses. For more information, see Selecting a dynamic IP address in Windows XP or Windows 2000 on page 53.

ASSIGNING A STATIC IP ADDRESS

If you are not using a DHCP-capable gateway or router, you will need to assign a static IP address to your computer. For more information, see Assigning a static IP address in Windows XP and Windows 2000 on page 51.
