Setting Up the TCP/IP
Congratulations on installing the XRouter’s hardware! In the next
pages we will show you how to enable communication between the
XRouter and its managing and client computers.
Part of the process of enabling communication involves setting the
IP addresses for the computer that will be directly managing the
XRouter’s operations and the client computers that will be receiving
Internet access from the XRouter. These computers must have their IP
addresses configured such that they share the same subnet number-
ing scheme as the XRouter’s default IP address. We will explain this in
more detail later in the chapter.
Configuring the IP addresses of the managing and client comput-
ers is a simple process that can be performed through your computer’s
control panel. We have provided instructions for the configuration
process for both Macintosh and PC users. Find the appropriate set of
instructions in the pages that follow.
Windows 95 TCP/IP Configuration of Computers
1. Double-click the Control Panel icon in My Computer folder.
2. From the Control Panel, double-click the Network icon. The
network interface card (installed on your computer) appears
along with the network protocol on the Configuration list.
3. Double-click TCP/IP protocol on the list. If TCP/IP does not
appear on the list, you must install the TCP/IP protocol first as
illustrated in step 4. Clients with TCP/IP already installed may
skip to step 5.
