1. Start to Install and set the IP address
When there are not too man y PCs to support, or the PC/Laptop c annot automatically get the IP from the router, or when the IPs you got are 169.254.x.x., it’s recommended to set the IP addresses manually. The setting steps are as follows: Click “My network” on your PC and select “ Propriety”, then go to “ Local Network” to select “ Propriety”, select “ Internet Protocol” (TCP/IP)”, click “ Propriety”, the followi ng picture will display:
Set the IP address here as 192.168.16.2, subnet mask as 255.255.255.0, default gateway as
192.168.16.1. As for DNS IP settings, please consult with your Service Provider to get the DNS server address and then input it here.
Note 1:Since the Default gateway of the router is 192.168.16. 1, so the last digit of the above image should vary between 2 to 254. In case there are many PC/Laptops to share for internet access, the IP assigned to the PC/Laptop should be different with each other so as to avoid the IP conflicting; Furthermore, while y ou are assigning the IP address by manual, at t he same time, you must set the DNS too, or you cannot open the website even you have got it connected.
Note 2: You can also select and tick the boxes of “Obtain an IP address automatically” and “Obtain DNS server address automatically”, so that it can automatically obtain the IP from the router.
