APPENDIX B
Setting Up Your Computer’s IP
Address
Note: Your specific NBG6604 may not support all of the operating systems described in this
appendix. See the product specifications for more information about which operating
systems are supported.
This appendix shows you how to configure the IP settings on your computer in order for it to be able to
communicate with the other devices on your network. Windows Vista/XP/2000, Mac OS 9/OS X, and all
versions of UNIX/LINUX include the software components you need to use TCP/IP on your computer.
If you manually assign IP information instead of using a dynamic IP, make sure that your network’s
computers have IP addresses that place them in the same subnet.
In this appendix, you can set up an IP address for:
• Windows XP/NT/2000 on page 113
• Windows Vista on page 116
• Windows 7 on page 119
• Mac OS X: 10.3 and 10.4 on page 123
• Mac OS X: 10.5 and 10.6 on page 126
• Linux: Ubuntu 8 (GNOME) on page 129
• Linux: openSUSE 10.3 (KDE) on page 133
