8.4.2. How to configure the computer to work in DHCP mode
Only follow these steps if issues with accessing the router through DHCP arise. The chapter can
be skipped if the computer can already communicate through DHCP and there is access to the
router administrative menu.
a. Click on the Windows start button and navigate to the control panel, click on „Network
and Internet“ and find „Network and Sharing center“, click on it. There should be only
one active connection, otherwise deactivate second active connection as it may lead to
irritations. Double click on the active connection name (after label „Connections:“)
b. The „Ethernet Status“ window opens. Click on „Properties“, and head for the „Internet Pro-
tocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)“. Double click it and select „Properties“. The following window
allows for setting the DHCP mode. If you want to enable DHCP, make sure „Obtain an IP
address automatically“ is selected, as well as „Obtain DNS server address automatically“.
