V-1.

Configuring your IP address

Before you run iQ Setup, please make sure your computer is set to use a
dynamic IP address. This means your computer can obtain an IP address
automatically from a DHCP server. This is a simple procedure, which is
explained step by step in

V-1-1. How to configure your computer to use a

dynamic IP address.


Static IP users can run iQ Setup by a) temporarily switching to a dynamic IP
address or b) modifying the static IP address of your computer.

For b) the wireless bridge uses the default IP address 192.168.9.2 so you need
to modify your computer’s IP address to be in the same IP address subnet e.g.
192.168.9.x (x = 10 – 254).

Static IP users please make a note of your static IP before you
change it or switch to a dynamic IP address.


The procedure for modifying your IP address varies across different operating
systems; please follow the guide appropriate for your operating system in

V-1-2. How to modify the IP address of your computer


You can assign a new IP address to the wireless bridge which is within the
subnet of your network during iQ Setup, or after iQ Setup using the browser
based configuration interface (refer to

IV-5. Administrator

). Please change

your IP address back to its original value after the wireless bridge is properly
configured.
