Verifying TCP/IP Properties for Macintosh Computers
To check the TCP/IP configuration after
you configured and rebooted your
Macintosh, return to the TCP/IP Control
Panel. From the Apple menu, select
Control Panels, then TCP/IP.
The panel is updated to show your settings.
They should match the values in the chart
below if you are using the default TCP/IP
settings that NETGEAR recommends.
If you do not see these values, you may
need to restart your Macintosh or you may
need to switch the Configure setting to a
different option, then switch back again to
Using DHCP Server.
Verifying the Readiness of Your Internet Account
For broadband access to the Internet, you need to contract with an Internet service provider (ISP)
for a single-user Internet access account using a cable modem or DSL modem. This modem must
be a separate physical box (not a card) and must provide an Ethernet port intended for connection
to a Network Interface Card (NIC) in a computer. Your router does not support a USB-connected
broadband modem.
For a single-user Internet account, your ISP supplies TCP/IP configuration information for one
computer. With a typical account, much of the configuration information is dynamically assigned
when your computer is first booted up while connected to the ISP, and you will not need to know
that dynamic information.
