This section describes the procedures for installing the Wireless LAN Bridge Access
Point under Windows 98 SE operating system.
Before You Start
Before setting up your Access Point, ask your network system administrator for the
following information:
•
Your IP address, gateway address, and subnet mask if you’re not using a
DHCP server.
•
The MAC address from the label on the bottom of the Access Point.
•
Your Wireless Client Name
•
Your Wireless SSID
•
Your computer’s unique client name and workgroup name
•
For your network account, your user name and password.
Every computer on a network is identified by a unique network address. There are
two methods of assigning network addresses to computer on a TCP/IP network:
•
Static IP addressing
•
Dynamic IP addressing (DHCP)
In networks with
static IP addressing , the network administrator manually assigns
an IP address to each computer. Once a static IP address is assigned, a computer
uses the same IP address every time it reboots and logs on to the network. You may
manually change the IP address in the
Network Properties dialog box . Networks
using static IP addresses are easy to set up and do not require additional network
management software.
In networks with
dynamic IP addressing , a DHCP server in the network dynamically
assigns IP addresses to all clients every time they log on to the network. Network
using dynamic IP addresses require setting up and running a DHCP Server or
installing the Wingate software package.
