Assigning An IP Address
The connection you created will be listed in the
Wireless Information
tab as a preferred
network. The radio will search for the SSID and will compare the WEP and
authentication information you specified. If there is a match between your
WORKABOUT PRO settings and the access point settings, the WORKABOUT
PRO will communicate on the network through the access point.
6.2.2 Assigning An IP Address
If your network is not using a DHCP server, you will need to assign an IP address.
•
In the
NETWLAN1 Settings
window, display the IP Information tab.
Figure 6.11 IP Information
Note:
Tapping on the
<Renew>
button forces the WORKABOUT PRO to renew
or find a new IP address. This is useful if, for example, you are out of com-
munication range for a longer period of time and your hand-held is
dropped from the network.
•
Tap on the
<Configure...>
button
to define a static IP address.
