BRL-04EX
To access the Internet through the BRL-04EX Broadband Router, you must
configure the network settings of the computers on your LAN to use the
s ame IP subnet as the BRL-04EX. The defaul t network sett ings for the
BRL-04EX are:
IP Address: 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Note:
These settings may be changed to suit your network requirements, but you
m ust first configure at l east one computer as descri bed i n Chapter 5 t o
access the BR L-04EX' web configurat ion int erface. (See Chapter 4 for
information on configuring the BRL-04EX.)
If you have not previously configured TCP/IP for your computer, refer to
"Configuring Client TCP/IP" on page 34.
All PCs connected to the BRL-04EX must be in the same IP subnet as the
BRL-04EX. The default IP address of the BRL-04EX is 192.168.1.1 (where
x means 2-254) and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. You can set the IP
address for client PCs either by automatically obtaining an IP address from
the BRL-04EX' DHCP service or by manual configuration. See "Setting Up
TCP/IP to Work with the BRL-04EX" on page37.
