Internet. 

 

1)  Setup your network as shown in the setup diagram below.   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2)  You then need to set your LAN PC clients so that it can obtain an IP address automatically.

server available on your LAN. If there is another DHCP on your network, then you’ll need 

to switch one of the DHCP servers off.

address
