Select the option 'Make all settings automatically' if you are

not

familiar with

networks and IP addresses, and one of the following conditions is applicable:

– You have not yet used IP addresses in your network but would like to do so

starting now. You are not concerned about the specific IP addresses that will be

used. The access point will then act as a DHCP server and automatically assign

the IP addresses for all devices in the network (LAN and WLAN).

– You do not want to use IP addresses because you are using a pure Windows

network, for example.

If you are not sure whether your network already uses IP addresses, click on

Run

, enter

winipcfg

on the command line and click

. Select your network adapter

in the following window. If the 'IP Address' field contains the value '0.0.0.0', the network

adapter does not have an IP address yet.

Under Windows NT you can check IP addresses with the command

ipconfig

Select the option 'I would like to make the settings myself' if you are familiar with

networks and IP addresses, and one of the following conditions is applicable:

– You have not yet used IP addresses in your network but would like to do so

starting now. You would like to assign the IP address of the access point yourself

from the address space reserved for private use, e.g. '10.0.0.1' with the subnet

mask '255.255.255.0'. You are thereby also defining the address space that the

DHCP server, if active, will use for the other devices on the network.
