SETTING TCP/IP TO WORK WITH THE WIRELESS BARRICADE PLUS

Configuring Your Computer with Windows 95/98/ME

You may find that the instructions here do not exactly match your version of Windows. This is because these steps and screenshots were created from Windows 98. Windows 95 and Windows Millennium Edition are very similar, but not identical, to Windows 98.

Step 1. Configure TCP/IP Settings

After you have completed the hardware setup by connecting your devices, you need to configure your computer to connect to your Wireless Barricade Plus. You need to determine how your ISP issues your IP address. Many ISPs issue these numbers automatically using a networking technology known as Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, or DHCP. Other ISPs will specify your IP address and associated numbers, which you must enter manually. This is also known as a static IP address. How your ISP assigns your IP address determines how you will configure your computer.

1.From the Windows desktop, click the "Start" button. Choose "Settings," then click "Control Panel."
