Run . The Run box appears.
b. Type command in the Open field and click OK. The
Command window appears.
c. Type ipconfig at the prompt and press Enter.
Information related to the computer’s network
configuration appears.
d. Check the IP Address. If the IP address is set to "0.0.0.0"
or to an address that begins with "169.254", make sure the
TCP/IP settings for your NIC are set to "Obtain IP address
automatically". For more information, see Configuring
Windows when DHCP is enabled on page 50.
If the TCP/IP settings are correct, power cycle the
computer; this sets the IP address correctly.
If the ipconfig command did not display IP address
information, there is probably a problem with the NIC.
Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation.

the DW6000 by entering ping 192.168.0.1 at a DOS
command line.
