TCP/IP Configuration

After configuring the Wireless Network Adapter network adapter

properties, the TCP/IP address for the network device needs to be

configured.

1. From Control Panel, launch the Network properties window.

2. Select “TCP/IP .Wireless Network Adapter ”and click

Properties. Depending on the type of network the station

connects to, Gateway and DNS Configuration information can

also be required. IP configuration information (DHCP or

assigned IP address, Gateway and DNS server IP addresses)

is usually obtained from the corporate IT staff. For a

simple demonstration, the station is assigned a static

IP address.

3. From “TCP/IP Properties,” choose “IP Address” and select

“Specify an IP address.” Input an IP address and subnet mask.

Assigning an IP address and subnet mask allows the station to

interact with the AP or other stations in the same IP subnet.

4. Click OK to complete the TCP/IP configuration, and re tart the

system for the changes to take effect.

5. Choose Start >Programs >Accessories >Command Prompt to

open the DOS command prompt window. Type “ipconfig” to

determine if the TCP/IP configuration has taken effect. To test

IP connectivity in ad hoc or infrastructure mode, use the ping

<ipaddress>command. When a TCP/IP connection is

established, the LinkMon utility can be used to monitor the

Wireless Network Adapter operating status.
