Getting Connected
Now that you have made all the physical connections, you need to establish
communication between the router and the PC you will use to configure it. If
your PC does not have TCP/IP installed and configured on your Ethernet
adapter card, or if your PC has been using Dial-up networking to connect to
the Internet or other remote connections, you will need to change the PC
configuration. Then you will use the AR100 Series Access Wizard on the AR100
Series Internet Router CD to establish communication with the router.
