Using the Configuration Utility (continued)

Dynamic IP Address: Select this option if you would like to have an IP address

automatically assigned to the DWL-700AP by a DHCP server in your network.

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. It is a protocol for assigning

dynamic IP addresses “automatically.” With a DHCP Server there is no need to

manually assign an IP address.

Static IP Address: Select this option if you are manually assigning an IP address.

IP Address: 192.168.0.50 is the default IP address of the access point.

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 is the default subnet mask. All devices on the

network must have the same subnet mask to communicate on the network.

Gateway: Enter the IP address of the gateway in your network.

IP Address

If you need to assign static IP addresses to the devices in your network, please

remember that the IP address for each computer or device must be in the same IP

address range as all the devices in the network. Each device must also have the

same subnet mask. For example: Assign the first computer an IP address of

192.168.0.2 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the second device an IP address

of 192.168.0.3 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, and so on. Devices that are

assigned the same IP address may not be visible on the network.
