Configuring Client TCP/IP

Note: These settings may be changed to suit your network requirements, but you must first configure at least one computer as described in this chapter to access the Wireless Barricade’s Web configuration interface.See “Configuring the Wireless Barricade Router” on page 27 for information on configuring the Wireless Barricade.)

If you have not previously configured TCP/IP for your computer, refer to“Configuring Client TCP/IP” on page 13. The IP address of the connected client PC should be 192.168.2.x (where x means 2–254). You can set the IP address for client PCs either by automatically obtaining an IP address from the Wireless Barricade’s DHCP service or by manual configuration.

1.From the Windows desktop, click Start/Settings/Control Panel.

2.In the Control Panel, locate and double click the Network icon.
