Universal Dual Band WiFi Internet Adapter (WNCE3001)

This screen shows whether the Internet adapter is set to get its IP address dynamically from the router (this is the most common setting), or is set with a static IP address.

Get Dynamically From Router. The wireless network router assigns an IP address when the Internet adapter connects to its wireless network. Most networks are set up so that the router automatically does this.

Use Static IP Address. Specify a static IP address. This is not usually necessary. If you set this up, you should be technically experienced or have a technically experienced person help you.

-IP Address. The static IP address.

-IP Subnet Mask: The subnet mask associated with the IP address.

-Gateway IP Address. The LAN IP address.

-Primary DNS. The primary Domain Name Server (DNS) address.

-Secondary DNS. The secondary Domain Name Server (DNS) address.

Enable internal DHCP server after connecting to Wireless AP. Most users should leave this check box unselected. In rare cases, some routers do not provide IP addresses to equipment connected to the WNCE3001. Select this check box to have the WNCE3001 assign IP addresses to the equipment instead.

Manage Your Configuration Settings
