Assigning an IP Address for Windows 95 and Windows 98 (First Release)

If your network is connected to the Internet, ask your Internet provider or IS department for a formal IP address.

If your network is not connected to the Internet, you can use an IP address in the following ranges: 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255, 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255, or 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255. Use a different IP address for every computer on your network.

If you use IP addresses in the ranges listed above, you may need to change them before you connect the network to the Internet. Check with your network administrator.

Windows 98 (Second Edition) automatically assigns an IP address to itself (for the station it is installed on) if you are not connected to a DHCP server.
