If your computer is part of an existing network (eg LAN), this Install
CD may change some of your computer’s network settings (eg DHCP,
DNS, Proxy settings etc).
Computer networks require an IP address to be allocated to your
computer’s network card. When connecting to Telstra Business
Broadband using the Install CD, you must allow the router to allocate
you an IP address automatically – this is known as a dynamic IP address
(or DHCP).
If you are not sure how your business network is set up, and you are
not sure if changing these settings will affect your existing network,
we recommend that you engage your IT Specialist or a Telstra IT
specialist before running this CD and installing Telstra Business
Broadband. Telstra Business offers a range of specialist IT assistance
through the Business Support Extra service. You can apply for Business
Support Extra by contacting your Telstra Account Representative or
by calling 1800 655 744.
It’s also important to remember that the number of computers
connected to your router wirelessly and concurrently will affect
your internet connection speed.
Please note: before you begin, make a note of your router’s SSID and
WPA security key in the space at the front of this guide. This is the
unique code that your router will use to secure your Wi-Fi network.
If you do want to connect additional computers to your router,
you can follow the Standard Installation option on the Install CD
which provides step by step instructions. Alternatively, follow
these Advanced Installation steps:
Step 1: Load and run your Install CD on the new computer.
Step 2: Choose the Advanced Installation option.
Step 3: Type the router’s SSID and WPA security key (they should be
written in the front of this guide) into the spaces provided in the section
called ‘1. Set Up Wireless Profile’. Once you’ve entered these details,
press the ‘Set Up Wireless’ button.
