Windows 98/95: Read the IP address automatically.

Windows 2000: Read the IP address automatically.

Windows NT 4.0: Read the IP address from the DHCP server.

An IP Address Is Already Allocated to the Personal Computers on the Network

Check if the IP address is set in the personal computer by the network manager.

An IP Address Is Not Allocated to the Personal Computers on the Network

Set the IP address on the personal computers as well as the AirStation using the following procedure. (Setting example)

Personal computer A:192.168.100.2 (255.255.255.0)

Personal computer B:192.168.100.3 (255.255.255.0)

Personal computer C:192.168.100.4 (255.255.255.0)

Personal computer X:192.168.100.254 (255.255.255.0)

*The server automatically allocates IP addresses to the personal computers and the AirStation on the net- work. If the device with built-in DHCP server function such as the Windows NT server and dial-up router exists on the network, the DHCP server function may start automatically. Refer to the Windows NT manual or the dial-up router manual if the DHCP server function is operating, or consult the manu- facturer. There is no DHCP server if you are using Windows 98/95 personal computers only on the net- work.
