•Get Dynamically From Router. The wireless network router assigns an IP address when the Internet adapter connects to its wireless network. Most networks are set up so that the router automatically does this.

•Use Static IP Address. Specify a static IP address. This is not usually necessary. If you set this up, you should be technically experienced or have a technically experienced person help you.

-IP Subnet Mask: The subnet mask associated with the IP address.

-Gateway IP Address. The LAN IP address.

-Primary DNS. The primary Domain Name Server (DNS) address.
