TCP/IP Configuration
After configuring the D-Link DWL-A650 Wireless Network Adapter network
adapter properties, the TCP/IP address for the network device needs to be
configured.
1. From Control Panel, launch the Network properties window. Select
“TCP/IP
→
D-Link DWL-A650 Wireless Network Adapter” and click
Properties. Depending on the type of network the station connects to,
Gateway and DNS Configuration information can also be required.
IP configuration information (DHCP or assigned IP address, Gateway and
DNS server IP addresses) is usually obtained from the corporate IT staff.
For a simple demonstration, the station is assigned a static IP address.
From “TCP/IP Properties,” choose “IP Address” and select “Specify an IP
address.” Input an IP address and subnet mask. Assigning an IP address
and subnet mask allows the station to interact with the AP or other
stations in the same IP subnet. Click OK to complete the TCP/IP
configuration, and restart the system for the changes to take effect.
