Configuring the Wireless Client

TCP/IP Settings

In order to access the shared hard disk drive of the ASUS WL- HDD2.5 or to use the device as an AP, you may need to configure the TCP/IP settings. The TCP/IP settings should be on the IP subnet of the ASUS WL-HDD2.5.

Notes:

Change the TCP/IP settings only if the wireless network does not support automatic IP addresses or if there is a problem operating the device. If you are not sure about the settings, use the default settings where the client obtains the IP address automatically.

Changing TCP/IP settings may require rebooting your PC (wireless client). When rebooting, the ASUS WL-HDD2.5 should be switched ON and in the ready state.

The following are the default IP settings of the ASUS WL-HDD2.5:

IP address 192.168.1.220

Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0.

If you set your computer’s (wireless client) IP manually, it needs to be on the same segment as the ASUS WL-HDD2.5. To set the TCP/IP settings, use the Network and Dialup Connections wizard to create a new LAN connection and configure its TCP/IP settings as follows:
