If you are using the terminal with a network, you must have
already installed an Ethernet hub or wireless base station and
NICs in the computers on your LAN, and if necessary connected
the computers to the Ethernet hub with Ethernet cable. See
Appendix C – Home networking on page 73 for more
information.
Configuring Windows
for a static IP address
The instructions for configuring a Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, or
XP system with a static IP address vary slightly. Find the
appropriate instructions for your system and follow them.
You manually enter the following information to configure your
operating system’s settings:
•
IP Address. You need a valid IP address for each computer.
Make sure the address does not conflict with any other
computer connected to the terminal. You can obtain the entire
list of available addresses for use with your terminal from the
Frequently Asked Questions section of the System Control
Center.
•
Subnet Mask. This is the subnet mask assigned to your
terminal. It is available on the System Information page of the
System Control Center. You would also have written this on
the Quick Start Guide during registration.
•
Default Gateway. This is the IP address of the terminal and is
also available on the System Information page of the System
Control Center. You would have also written this on the
Quick Start Guide at the end of registration.
Note: You must complete the appropriate instructions for each
computer or device that accesses the Internet over the LAN.
Note: Home networking equipment is required but not included.
For network setup, support and configuration, contact your
network hardware manufacturer and/or operating system software
developer (Hughes Network Systems, LLC (HNS) is not
responsible for home network management or troubleshooting).
Simultaneous use of high bandwidth applications by multiple
users may result in degradation of speed. Actual speeds may vary.
Speed and uninterrupted use of service are not guaranteed.
Note: If your terminal will be connected to a router, you must
configure the router with the static IP address. Refer to the
instructions included with your router to configure it. You must
then enable the Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) on all
PCs connected to the router.
