Connect the local PC to the LAN/WAN port of the Modem Router. Configure your PC to obtain IP

address automatically in the following way.

 Obtain an IP address automatically

1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on your PC.

If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to

Appendix B: "Configuring the

PC”.

2) Then the built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.

Now, you can run the Ping command in the command prompt to verify the network connection.

Please click the Start menu on your desktop, select run tab, type cmd or command in the field

and press Enter. Type ping 192.168.1.1 on the next screen, and then press Enter.
