Preparing Your Network

All computers must have a 10M or 100M Ethernet adapter card and TCP/IP installed. TCP/IP should already be installed on computers using Windows NT/2000/XP, Macintosh OS 7 and later operating systems.

Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP, Macintosh OS 7 and later operating systems and all versions of UNIX/LINUX include the software components you need to install and use TCP/IP on your computer. Windows 3.1 requires the purchase of a third-party TCP/IP application package.

After the appropriate TCP/IP components are installed, configure the TCP/IP settings in order to ”communicate“ with your network.

The Teledat Router 400 assigns these factory default values if you configure TCP/IP using DHCP:

IP address: between 192.168.1.33 and 192.168.1.64

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (the Teledat Router 400)

These procedures are for dynamic IP addresses. Do not assign an arbitrary IP address or subnet mask to your computer. If you do, you will not be able to access the Internet.
