Figure 3-5: Basic IP Settings page

• IP Settings Current IP Addresses

The wireless USB print server is shipped preconfigured to act as a DHCP client.

If the wireless USB print server does not find a DHCP server in your network, it defaults to

this IP configuration: IP Address of 192.168.0.102 and IP Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0.

If your network has a requirement to use a different IP addressing scheme, you can make those

changes in this page.

• IP Settings Suggested Values

The wireless USB print server is set to act as a DHCP client. DHCP addresses change

dynamically based on which device connects to your network first. Your wireless USB print

server needs to use the same IP address all the time. This assures that each computer can

communicate with the printers attached to the wireless USB print server.

Use the Suggested Values button to let the wireless USB print server assign an IP address in

the range that your network uses. The wireless USB print server will pick a high number that is

unlikely to be assigned in a home network because home networks usually have fewer than

100 devices on the network in the home.
