[Command prompt].·

 

 

 

2. In [Command prompt] or [MS-DOS prompt] window, input

 

 

 

 

[IPCONFIG] command as follows, then press [Enter] key.

 

 

 

 

Example: In case of C drive being the hard disk:

 

 

 

 

C:\ipconfig [Enter]

 

 

 

 

Check that the IP address is correctly displayed:.

 

 

 

 

IP Address................: 10.0.1.3

 

 

 

 

Subnet Mask.............: 255.255.255.0

 

 

 

 

Default Gateway.........: 10.0.1.1

 

 

 

 

When IP address is displayed as [169.254.XXX.YYY] or [0.0.0.0],

 

 

 

 

IP address is not correctly fetched from the access point. In that

 

 

 

 

case, restart the computer itself. If the display is still unchanged,

 

 

 

 

check the setting of TCP/IP.

 

 

 

 

If [Cable Disconnected] or [Media Disconnected] is displayed

 

 

 

 

without showing IP address, check the setting of network name

 

 

 

 

(SSID) and network key. Also, set the network authentication

 

 

 

 

according to the access point.
