Chapter 5: Macintosh Setup

This chapter provides information on using Macintosh computers in your network. The instructions given here are for system software version 8.0 or above, which comes with the TCP/IP Protocol preloaded and supports DHCP Addressing.

5-1 Hardware Connections

Connect your Macintosh computer to your NetComm ADSL Modem Router. If you have a newer computer, there will be a 10Base-T Ethernet port on the back. Older computers will need to have an Ethernet card installed. Refer to your computer’s User Manual for instructions on Ethernet card installation.

5-2 Computer Network Configuration

It is assumed that your computer’s system software already has TCP/IP installed. You may manually configure your computer with a fixed IP Address (for example 192.168.1.2) or have an IP Address dynamically assigned to it by the NetComm ADSL Modem Router’s DHCP server.

5-2.1 Dynamic IP Addressing using DHCP Server.

1.From the “Apple” menu, select “Control Panel” and click on “TCP/IP”.

2.In the “TCP/IP (A New Name For Your Configuration)” window, select “Ethernet” in the “Connect via” location from the drop-down list.

3.In the “Setup” area:

-Select “Using DHCP Server” in the “Configure” location from the drop-down list.

-No other data needs to be entered.

-Close the window.

4.Click “Save” from the file menu, then “Quit” TCP/IP.

5.Restart the computer.

5-2.2 Manual Configuration of Fixed IP Addresses

1.From the “Apple” menu, select “Control Panel” and click on “TCP/IP”.

2.In the “TCP/IP (A New Name For Your Configuration)” window, select “Ethernet” in the “Connect via” location from the drop-down list.

3.In the “Setup” area:

-Select “Manually” in the “Configure” location from the drop-down list.

-In the “IP Address” location, enter the IP Address that you want to assign to the computer (for example 192.168.1.2) .

-Enter “255.255.255.0” in the “Subnet Mask” location.

-Enter “192.168.1.1” (the NetComm ADSL Modem Router’s default IP Address) in the “Router Address” location.
