Install TCP/IP Protocol on Windows 95
The Windows 95 network configuration depends on the
TCP/IP network software, which is included with
Windows 95. Before you begin you need to know the IP
address for your workstation. You also need the subnet
mask. Check with your system administrator for this
information. Follow these steps to install TCP/IP.
1.
From Windows 95 open the control panels. (Select
the Start menu, then the Settings submenu, then the
Control Panel
menu option.)
2. Open the Network control panel.
3. Select the Configuration tab in the Network control
panel.
4. See if TCP/IP is listed as one of the installed
network components. If TCP/IP has already been
installed proceed to step 8.
5. In the Configuration panel click the Add button.

select Protocol and click the Add button.

8. In the Configuration panel of the Network control
panel, select TCP/IP from the Network Components
list. Click the Properties button.

address automatically
in the TCP/IP Properties

dialog box.

want to restart your computer. You must restart for
the changes to take effect. Click the Yes button to
restart.
