Configuring TCP/IP on Windows 95 or 98

Be sure TCP/IP is installed and configured on your Windows computer. The following is a quick guide to configuring TCP/IP for Windows machines. Configuring TCP/IP in a Windows machine requires the following:

An Ethernet card (also known as a network adapter)

The TCP/IP protocol must be “bound” to the adapter or card

Dynamic configuration (recommended)

The easiest configuration method is to accept the dynamic IP address assigned by your router. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which enables dynamic addressing, is enabled by default on the router.

1.Go to Start Menu/Settings/Control Panels and double click the Network icon. From the Network components list, select the Configuration tab.

2.Select TCP/IP-->Your Network Card. Then select Properties. In the TCP/IP Properties screen (shown at right), select the IP Address tab. Click “Obtain an IP Address automatically.”

3.Click OK in this window, and the next window. When prompted, reboot the computer.
