If you need to assign IP addresses to the computers on the network, please
remember that the IP address for each computer must be in the same IP
address range as all the computers in the network, and the subnet mask
must be exactly the same for all the computers in the network.
For example: If the first computer is assigned an IP address of 192.168.0.2 with a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, then the second computer can be assigned an IP
address of 192.168.0.3 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, etc.
IMPORTANT: If computers or other devices are assigned the same IP
address, one or more of the devices may not be visible on the network.
IP ADDRESS
Note: If you are using a DHCP-capable router in your network you will not need
to assign a static IP address.
Right out of the box, with its default settings, the DWL-7100AP will automati-
cally connect with other D-Link AirPremier
TM
AG products.
