Before all computers using wired Ethernet connection (i.e. those computers connect to this
router s LAN port 1 to 4 by Ethernet cable) or wireless connection can communicate with

for every computer manually), and dynamic IP address (IP address of computers will be
assigned by router automatically. It s recommended for most of computers to use dynamic
IP address, it will save a lot of time on setting IP addresses for every computer, especially
when there are a lot of computers in your network; for servers and network devices which
will provide services to other computer and users that come from Internet, static IP address
should be used, so other computes can locate the server.

and can help you to assign IP addresses to your client computers. Almost all network
computers / devices manufactured after year 1995 are compatible with DHCP, and you can
