Chapter IV: IP Address Setting
Using the router to get into the Internet, the PCs in the network must have Ethernet adapter installed
and be connected to the router either directly or through a hub or switch. The TCP/IP protocol of each
PC has to been installed and the IP Address of each PC has to be set in the same subnet as the
router.
The router’s default IP Address is 192.168.2.1 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. PCs can be
configured to obtain IP Address automatically through the DHCP Server of the router or a fixed IP
Address in order to be in the same subnet as the router. By default, the DHCP Server of the router is
enabled and will dispatch IP Address to PC from 192.168.2.100 to 192.168.2.200. It is strongly
recommended to set obtaining IP address automatically.
This section shows you how to configure your PC’s so that it can obtain an IP address automatically

Sun, etc.), please follow the manual of the operating systems. The following is a step-by-step
