Reference Manual for the RangeMax Wireless Router WPN824
C-2 Preparing Your Network
202-10072-01, March 2005
For the initial setup of your router, you will need to connect a computer to the router. This
computer has to be set to automatically get its TCP/IP configuration from the router via DHCP.
Note: For help with DHCP configuration, please use the Windows TCP/IP Configuration
Tutorials on the NETGEAR RangeMax Wireless Router WPN824 Resource CD, or in this
appendix.
Internet Configuration Requirements
Depending on how your Internet service set up your account, you may need one or more of these
configuration parameters to connect your router to the Internet:
Host and Domain Names
ISP Login Name and Password
ISP Domain Name Server (DNS) Addresses
Fixed IP Address which is also known as Static IP Address
Where Do I Get the Internet Configuration Parameters?
There are several ways you can gather the required Internet connection information.
Your Internet service provides all the information needed to connect to the Internet. If you
cannot locate this information, you can ask your Internet service to provide it or you can try
one of the options below.
If you have a computer already connected using the Internet, you can gather the configuration
information from that computer.
For Windows 95/98/ME, open the Network control panel, select the TCP/IP entry for the
Ethernet adapter, and click Properties. Record all the settings for each tab page.
For Windows 2000/XP, open the Local Area Network Connection, select the TCP/IP entry
for the Ethernet adapter, and click Properties. Record all the settings for each tab page.
For Macintosh computers, record the settings in the TCP/IP or Network control panel.
You may also refer to the NETGEAR RangeMax Wireless Router WPN824 Resource CD for
the NETGEAR Router ISP Guide which provides Internet connection information for many
ISPs.
Once you locate your Internet configuration parameters, you may want to record them on the page
below.
