computers, you must have an established Internet account from an Internet Service
Provider (ISP).
2. It’s best to use the same computer that is connected to your router for configuring the
DSL-G604T Wireless ADSL Router. The DSL-G604T acts as a DHCP server and will
assign all the necessary IP address information on your network. See atthe Quick
Installation Guide or the Manual on the CD-ROM for setting each network adapter to
automatically obtain an IP address.
