| matches the PC's "hostname". |

|
IP Address | Select the appropriate option: |
| • Automatic - The PC is set to be a DHCP client (Windows: |
| "Obtain an IP address automatically"). The Wireless Router will |
| allocate an IP address to this PC when requested to do so. The IP |
| address could change, but normally won't. |
| • DCHP Client - Reserved IP Address - Select this if the PC is set |
| to be a DCHP client, and you wish to guarantee that the Wireless |
| Router will always allocate the same IP Address to this PC. |
| Enter the required IP address. Only the last field is required; the |
| other fields must match the Wireless Router's IP address. |
| • Fixed IP Address - Select this if the PC is using a Fixed (Static) |
| IP address. Enter the IP address allocated to the PC. (The PC must |
| be configured to use this IP address.) |
