Networking Basics

Assigning a Static IP Address (continued)

Select Use the following IP address

in the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window.

Input your IP address and subnet mask. (The IP Addresses on your network must be within the same range. For example, if one computer has an IP Address of 192.168.0.2, the other computers should have IP Addresses that are between 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.254. No two computers can have the same IP Address. The subnet mask must be the same for all the computers on the network.)

IP Address:

e.g.,192.168.0.2

Subnet Mask:

255.255.255.0

Default Gateway: Enter the LAN IP address of the Wireless Router. (D-Link wireless routers have a LAN IP address of 192.168.0.1)

Select Use the following DNS server address. Enter the LAN IP address of the Wireless Router. (D-Link wireless routers have a LAN IP address of 192.168.0.1)
