Configure your PC to obtain an IP address

By default the ADSL router’s DHCP is on, this means that you can
obtain an IP address automatically once you’ve configured your
PC to obtain an IP address automatically. This section will show
you how to configure your PC to obtain an IP address
automatically for either Windows 95/98/Me, 2000 or NT operating
systems.

For other operating systems (Macintosh, Sun, etc.), follow the
manufacturer’s instructions. The following is a step-by-step
illustration on how to configure your PC to obtain an IP address
automatically for Windows OS.
