Click Use.the.following.IP.address and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet as

your network or the LAN IP address on your router.

Example: If the router´s LAN IP address is 19.168.0.1, make your IP address 19.168.0.X

where X is a number between  and 99. Make sure that the number you choose is not in

use on the network. Set Default Gateway the same as the LAN IP address of your router

(19.168.0.1).

Set Primary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your router (19.168.0.1). The Secondary

DNS is not needed or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP.

Step.5

Click OK twice to save your settings.
