Getting Started
To begin, select the type of wireless network you will be building.
We will discuss the following types of networks in this section:
1. A Home Internet Network with A Residential Gateway/Router
2. A Home Internet Network with Multiple IP Addresses
3. An Ad Hoc Network
4. An Ad Hoc Network with Internet Sharing
Please select, from the four types of networks described above, the type of network that is
appropriate for your needs. Please follow the instructions in the corresponding section that follows.
1. A Home Internet Network with A Residential Gateway/Router
(
Network administrators with Dynamic IPs can also follow these instructions.)
If you have two or more computers (laptops or desktops) and want to share files, printers, and
Internet access using a DHCP-capable Residential Gateway/Router
– or
−
if you want to connect
to an Ethernet network that uses Dynamic (DHCP) IP addresses, then follow the instructions on
the next page. When it is complete, your network may look similar to this:
DHCP stands for
Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol. It
is a protocol for assigning
dynamic IP addresses
“automatically.” With a
DHCP-capable gateway,
there is no need to
manually assign an IP
address.
