Local PC Configuration

By default, the HM210dp/di acts as a DHCP server that automatically
assigns all required Internet settings to your PCs, i.e. the DHCP clients.
The predefined IP address and DHCP range is as below:

LAN Port IP Address 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask

255.255.255.0

DHCP Range

192.168.1.3 – 192.168.1.34

The following instructions assume that your PC meets the following
prerequisites:

1. Already is connected to the LAN port on the HM210dp/di through its

network interface card (NIC).

2. Has the appropriate Ethernet adapter software installed.

3. Has the TCP/IP protocol installed. If not, refer to Microsoft

documentation to install the TCP/IP protocol.

You need only to configure the PCs to accept the information when it is
assigned. Follow the instructions that correspond to the operating system
installed on each PC.
