2. IP Settings:
IP Address Mode
Select 'DHCP' to get the IP settings from a DHCP server on your network.
Select 'Static' to use the IP settings specified on this page.
Default IP address
Type in the IP address of your Access Point. Allows the user to set a static
IP address to the Wireless Adapter. This IP address is only used for
accessing the built-in Web server. In order to access the Web server, the
computer must use an IP address on the same subnet of the Wireless
Adapter. It is not necessary to change this IP address to an address used
by the Wireless Network, but it is okay to do so, if desired. However, if
you do so, please consult with your system or network administrator to
obtain an IP address.
WARNING: Any changes to the following IP settings should be
contemplated carefully, documented well, and made only after
consulting your system or network administrator. Failure to do so
may result in being unable to access the built-in Web server and/or
may affect network operation.
Default subnet mask
The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address.
The factory default is 255.255.0.0. This allows the user to set the subnet
mask. If you change the IP address to one that is usable in your network,
you may need to change this setting also. Please ask your system or
network administrator for the correct subnet mask.
Default gateway
This is the IP address of the gateway that connects you to the Internet.
Allows the user to set the default gateway. If you change the IP address to
one that is usable in your network, you may need to change this setting
also. Please ask your system or network administrator for the correct
gateway.
