2. PC Configuration
User needs to configure TCP/IP network settings, Internet access configuration for each system within th e ENRTR-514 Broadband Router’s LAN network. By default, the Broadband Router acts as a DHCP server for server version of Windows, it automatically assigns IP address to each system when systems boot up. For all non-server versions of Windows, the default TCP/IP setting acts as a DHCP client. If user chooses fixed IP addresses for client systems, the Gateway of the client system must be set to the proper IP address of the Broadband Router and DNS of the client system should be set to the address provided by your ISP.
