TCP/IP Settings
By default, the IP address of the wireless router is 192.168.2.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. It is recommended you set the network adapter to ‘Obtain an IP address automatically’ so your PC could automatically acquire an IP address from the wireless router. You can also manually set the TCP/IP properties of your PC’s network adapter so that your PC can communicate with the wireless router. You can manually set the network adapter by following these steps:
1. Right-click the My Network Places icon (e.g., Windows XP) and select Properties in the menu. The Network Connections page appears.
2. Right-click the network adapter icon and select Properties in the menu. The Local Area Connection Properties appears. (Note: If there are several
network cards on your PC, you would need to identify which network card is connected to the wireless router.)
