Connecting With Static IP Addressing

Network Setup for Windows 2000

1.From the Start menu, select Settings Control Panel.

2.Double-click on the Network and Dial-Up Connections option.

3.Double-click on the Local Area Connection option.

4.Click the Properties button to open the Local Area Connection Properties menu. If the computer is not currently connected to an active network, Step 3 has already opened the Local Area Connection Properties menu.

5.Click on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) line item so that it is highlighted.

6.Click the Properties button.

7.Select the “Use the following IP address” option. The IP address, Subnet mask, and Default gateway boxes are no longer grayed out and can now be modified.

8.Enter the following values:

•IP address: 192.168.50.x – where x stands for a number other than 0, 3, 4, 5 or 255

•Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

•Do not enter a value in the Default gateway parameter

The computer must have a unique address and be on the same

15

subnet as the amplifier.

 

9.Click “OK” to save and exit the menu.

10.Open the Internet Explorer Web browser.

11.From the menu bar, select the Tools Internet Options menu.

12.Select the Connections tab.

13.Click the LAN Settings button.

14.Verify that “Use a proxy server for your LAN” is NOT checked.

15.Click “OK” to save and exit the menu.

Use this procedure if you plan to connect with static IP addresses

(DHCP is turned off). Otherwise, skip to the next procedure to connect directly to a computer. For the computer to find the amplifier, the TCP/IP and LAN settings of the computer must be set up. Refer to the previous “Setting up the Computer” procedure for instructions.

1.Connect the amplifier to the router, as described in the earlier

“Connecting the Cables” procedure. Make sure that everything is powered off before making cable connections.

2.Turn on the PC and the router. Verify that the router has DHCP turned off, if required.
