1. A Home Internet Network with A Residential Gateway/Router
(Network administrators with Dynamic IPs can also follow these instructions.)
If you have two or more computers (laptops or desktops) and want to share files, printers, and
Internet access using a DHCP-capable Residential Gateway/Router
– or
−
if you want to connect
to an Ethernet network that uses Dynamic (DHCP) IP addresses, then follow the instructions on
the next page. After completion, your network may look similar to this:
(Requirements: A Residential Gateway/Router connected with an Ethernet (CAT5) cable to an
802.11a/b Access Point or an 802.11a/g Access Point or another computer with an 802.11b/g
WLAN card installed).
This type of installation requires that you provide a dynamic IP address for each computer on your
network. You will need a DHCP-capable Residential Gateway/Router for your network.
To complete the installation, please follow these steps:
1. Connect the Router/Gateway to a Broadband connection, (e.g., a Cable modem or a DSL
modem.)
2. Connect the WLAN Access Point to the router.
3. Install the 802.11g Intellinet Wireless PCI Card into a computer on your wireless network.
4. Check the Device Manager to confirm that the wireless card is installed correctly.
5. By default, the wireless card is set to obtain a Dynamic IP Address. If you are having
difficulty connecting, check to make sure that the IP Address of the wireless card is within
the IP address range of your network.
DHCP stands for Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol.
It is a protocol for assigning
dynamic IP addresses
“automatically.” With a
DHCP-capable gateway,
there is no need to manually
assign an IP address.
