Network Connection
LAN Connection for a DhCP Environment
The procedures to set up the network using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) are described
below. Since an IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS are automatically allocated when DHCP is
selected, you do not have to enter them manually.

The terminals (the position of the port and the type) of the external device may differ depending on the
manufacturer.
If the IP address allocation by the DHCP server has failed, turn the external modem off, turn it on
again after at least 10 seconds and then try again.
For the connections between the external modem and the Sharer (Router), refer to the owner’s
manual of the corresponding product.
You cannot use a manual-connection-type ADSL modem because it does not support DHCP. You have
to use an automatic-connection-type ADSL modem.
