Configuring the DNS Address
Typically, the DNS address will be supplied as part of the WMC6300’s communication with the
network. Occasionally however, the Network Operator must supply the DNS IP address for an
internet connection. This address must be manually configured in order for web URLs such as
www.meshnetworks.com to be resolved. Complete the following procedure to configure the
address:
1. From the windows Start menu, select Settings à Control Panel
2. On the Control Panel, double-click on the Network and Dial-Up
Connections icon.
3. Right click on the Local Area Connection Corresponding to the Wireless
Modem Card and select “Properties” from the pop up menu.
