4.1 Windows Clients

This section describes how to configure Windows clients for Internet access via the WN-300ARM-VPN.

The first step is to check the PC's TCP/IP settings.

The WN-300ARM-VPN uses the TCP/IP network protocol for all functions, so it is essential that the TCP/IP

protocol be installed and configured on each PC.

TCP/IP Settings - Overview

If using the default WN-300ARM-VPN settings, and the default Windows TCP/IP settings, no changes need to

be made.

 By default, the WN-300ARM-VPN will act as a DHCP Server, automatically providing a suitable IP

Address (and related information) to each PC when the PC boots.

 For all non-Server versions of Windows, the default TCP/IP setting is to act as a DHCP client.

If using a Fixed (specified) IP address, the following changes are required:

 The

Gateway must be set to the IP address of the WN-300ARM-VPN.

 The

DNS should be set to the address provided by your ISP.

If your LAN has a Router, the LAN Administrator must re-configure the Router itself. Refer to

Chapter 8 - Advanced Setup for details.
