Static IP Number Management
Some users may require a static IP number for the WLAN connection in the office and a dynamic IP
number outside the office.
If you are using Windows 98SE/Me/2000, it is necessary to manually change the TCP/IP properties
of the Sony Ericsson 802.11g Wireless LAN adaptor:
1. Select Control Panel Network and Dial-up Connections.
2. Right click the WLAN connection and select Properties General Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) Properties.
3. Enter the static IP address for use in the office or select Obtain IP address automatically for
use outside.
Under Windows XP, this situation can be automated:

General Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties.
2. In the General tab select Obtain an IP address automatically.
3. In the Alternate Configuration tab select User configured and enter static IP address and any
other network parameters that are required.
