(Network administrators with Dynamic IPs can also follow these instructions.)

If you have two or more computers (laptops or desktops) and want to share files, printers, and Internet access using a DHCP-capable Residential Gateway/Router – or - if you want to connect to an Ethernet network that uses Dynamic (DHCP) IP addresses, then follow the instructions on the next page.

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. It is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses “automatically.” With a DHCP-capable gateway, there is no need to manually assign an IP address.

Requirements: A Residential Gateway/Router connected with an Ethernet (CAT5) cable to an 802.11g Access Point.
