Obtain IP Settings from Your Barricade
Now that you have configured your computer to connect to your
Barricade, it needs to obtain new network settings. By releasing old DHCP
IP settings and renewing them with settings from your Barricade, you can
verify that you have configured your computer correctly.
1. On the Windows desktop, click Start/Programs/Accessories/
Command Prompt.
2. In the Command Prompt window, type ipconfig /release and press
the ENTER key.
3. Type ipconfig /renew and press the ENTER key. Verify that your
IP address is now 192.168.2.xxx, your subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
and your default gateway is 192.168.2.1. These values confirm that
your ADSL router is functioning.
Type exit and press the ENTER key to close the Command Prompt
window.
Your computer is now configured to connect to the Barricade.
