Figure 5.2d  IP Address Configuration 

 
3. 

Configure your IP address and the rest of the parameters so  that 
you can be connected to the network. 

 

If your access point is configured as a DHCP server, you have to 
select 

Obtain an IP address automatically

 
If your access point (AP) has a certain IP address, in order to 
communicate with the AP, you would have to assign an IP address 
with the same first 3 sets of numbers and a different set of number 
for the last set to differentiate your laptop and the access point in 
the network. The 

subnet mask

 would be 255.255.255.0 

 

 

Note: 
Please check with your system administrator or Internet 
Service Provider for more information on the TCP/IP 
parameters.
