for configuring the DWL-2100AP. The default IP address for the DWL-2100AP is
192.168.0.50 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. You will need to assign your
computer a Static IP address within the same range as the DWL-2100AP’s IP address
for the purpose of configuring the DWL-2100AP. See the Appendix if you need
assistance in assigning a Static IP address for your network adapter.
