The IP Settings (Gateway and Primary DNS) in the WinMAX Server Configuration screen must be set

correctly. To prepare your server for automatic updates:

2. Go to an MS-DOS Command Prompt on your PC and type ipconfig /all then press Enter. Note the

Default Gateway and first DNS Server settings.

3. In the System Information tab, click the Server Configuration button to access the Server

Configuration dialog.

4. Copy the Default Gateway and first DNS Server settings (from step 2) into the Gateway and

Primary DNS fields in the IP Settings section of the Server Configuration dialog.

5. Press Save Configuration. The server is now ready for auto-updates.
