Obtaining the ISP configuration data (Macintosh)
If your computer was connected directly to the modem in order to access the Internet,
you may have to get the configuration data from your computer for use in configuring
the Data Tank Gateway. If your ISP has supplied this information in print-out form or if it
obtains the configuration data dynamically, you will not require this information. To obtain
the information needed to configure the Gateway to access the Internet:
1. Open Apple's 'System Preferences' and hit 'TCP/IP'. System Preferences - 'TCP/IP' opens
and displays a list of configuration settings. If 'Configure' is set to 'Use a DHCP server',
your account uses an IP addressed obtained dynamically and you do not require any
additional information. Please close the window and proceed with the installation of
your computer and Data Tank Gateway.
2. If both an IP address and a subnet mask are displayed, write this information down
on a piece of paper.
3. If an IP address is shown under 'Router Address', write this down. This is the IP's gateway
address.
4. If several name server addresses are displayed, write these down. These are your ISP's
DNS addresses.
5. If any information is displayed in the 'Domain Search' information field, you should
also jot this down.
6. Change settings under 'Configure' to 'Use a DHCP server'.
7. Close TCP/IP-System Preferences.
Restart the network
Once your computer is configured to work with the Data Tank Gateway, you need to reset
the network so that the devices can properly communicate with each other.
1. Turn off the Data Tank Gateway if it is on. Turn it back on and wait until it has rebooted.
(This may take up to 30 seconds.)
2. Restart all computers attached to the Data Tank Gateway.
Ready to configure
Once all computers are set to TCP/IP network mode and connected to the local area network
of your Data Tank Gateway, you can access the Data Tank Gateway and configure it.
