Setting Up TCP/IP

Congratulations on installing the XRouter Pro’s hardware! In the

next pages we will show you how to enable communication between

the XRouter Pro and its managing and client computers.

Part of the process of enabling communication involves setting the

IP addresses for the computer that will be directly managing the

XRouter Pro’s operations and the client computers that will be receiv-

ing Internet access from the XRouter Pro. These computers must have

their IP addresses configured such that they share the same subnet

numbering scheme as the XRouter Pro’s default IP address. We will

explain this in more detail later in the chapter.

Configuring the IP addresses of the managing and client comput-

ers is a simple process that can be performed through your computer’s

control panel. We have provided instructions for the configuration

process for both Macintosh and PC users. Find the appropriate set of

instructions in the pages that follow.

Windows 95/98 TCP/IP Configuration of Computers

1. Double-click the Control Panel icon in My Computer folder.

2. From the Control Panel, double-click the Network icon. The

network interface card (installed on your computer) appears

along with the network protocol on the Configuration

list.

3. Double-click TCP/IP protocol on the list. If TCP/IP does not

appear on the list, you must install the TCP/IP protocol first as

illustrated in step 4. Clients with TCP/IP already installed may

skip to step 5.
