8. CONFIGURING YOUR DEVICE FOR DHCP
In order to communicate with your Router, devices on your LAN (such as PCs, laptops and other networking
equipment using wired or wireless connection) must have an IP address. Your Router’s built-in DHCP server can
issue IP addresses to devices on your LAN; however, your device must first be configured to automatically receive an
IP address from your Router. Typically, networking devices are shipped from the manufacturer already configured
for automatic DHCP, but in instances where you need to configure automatic DHCP, the following sections help
explain this setup. If needed, please check your device’s user manual for details on configuring your device.
8.1 Configuring DHCP in Macintosh OS X
This section provides instructions on how to configure DHCP if you are using Macintosh Operating System 10.
NOTE: Macintosh computers must use the Router’s Ethernet installation. Refer to section 5 “Installing the Router,”
for details.
