2. PC Configuration
To communicate and configure 802.11n AP router, the PC on your LAN must install TCP/IP
protocol. Make sure the TCP/IP protocol of the PC is configured for Obtain IP address from
DHCP and is connected to LAN (Ethernet) port of the AP router. In doing so, the PC obtains an
IP address of 192.168.1.1 from 802.11n AP router.
The 802.11n AP router assumes an IP address of 192.168.1.1 without network connectivity.
This IP address is used for communicating with the 802.11n AP router via the web UI or Telnet,
with the PC connected to the LAN port.
The 802.11n AP router assumes a DHCP IP address on the WAN side if connected to the
network. In this case user can communicate with the same IP address 192.168.1.1 with PC
connected to the LAN port. PC in the network can communicate with the DHCP IP address
allocated to 802.11n router.
2.1 TCP/IP Networking Setup
Checking TCP/IP Settings for Windows 9x/Me
a) Select “Start ÆControl Panel ÆNetwork”, the window below will appear,
