Verifying TCP/IP Properties


After your PC is configured and has rebooted, you can check the TCP/IP configuration using the utility winipcfg.exe:
1. On the Windows taskbar, click the Start button, and then click Run.
2. Type winipcfg, and then click OK.
The IP Configuration window opens, which lists (among other things), your IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.
3. From the drop-down box, select your Ethernet adapter.
The window is updated to show your settings, which should match the values below if you are using the default TCP/IP settings that NETGEAR recommends for connecting through a router or gateway:
· The IP address is between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254
· The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
· The default gateway is 192.168.0.1
