Chapter 3
Preparing Your Network
This chapter describes how to prepare your PC network to connect to the Internet through the
Model RO318 Cable/DSL Security Router and how to order broadband Internet service from an
Internet service provider (ISP).
Preparing Your Personal Computers for IP Networking
The Model RO318 Cable/DSL Security Router uses the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP). In order to access the Internet through the router, each PC on your network
must have TCP/IP installed and selected as the networking protocol.
Note:
In this chapter, we use the term “PC” to refer to personal computers in general, and not
necessarily Windows computers.
Most operating systems include the software components you need to install and use TCP/IP on
your PC:
•
Windows
®
95 or later (including Windows NT
®
) includes the software components for
establishing a TCP/IP network.
•
Windows 3.1 does not include a TCP/IP component. You need to purchase a third-party TCP/
IP application package such as NetManage Chameleon.
•
Macintosh Operating System 7 or later includes the software components for establishing a
TCP/IP network.
•
All versions of UNIX or Linux include TCP/IP components.
