Using the Configuration Utility (continued)
Dynamic IP Address:
Select this option if you would like to have an IP Address
automatically assigned to the DWL-G700AP by a DHCP server in your network.
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. It is a protocol for assigning
dynamic IP addresses “automatically.” With a DHCP Server there is no need to
manually assign an IP Address.
Static IP Address:
Select this option if you are manually assigning an IP Address.
IP Address:
192.168.0.50 is the default IP Address of the Access Point.
Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0 is the default Subnet Mask. All devices on the
network must have the same subnet mask to communicate on the network.
Gateway:
Enter the IP Address of the router in your network
DNS Server:
Home > LAN
IP Address
If you need to assign static IP addresses to the devices in your network, please
remember that the IP address for each computer or device must be in the same IP
address range as all the devices in the network. Each device must also have the same
subnet mask. For example: Assign the first computer an IP address of 192.168.0.2
and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the second device an IP address of 192.168.0.3
and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, and so on. Note: Devices that are assigned
the same IP address may not be visible on the network.
Enter the IP address of the DNS server. The DNS server translates
domain names such as www.dlink.com into IP addresses.
