The Router has the ability to dynamically allocate network addresses to the
computers on your network, using DHCP. However, your computers need to be
configured correctly for this to take place. To change the configuration of your
computers to allow this, follow the instructions in this chapter.
INSTALL SOFTWARE
The very first time you set up your computer, we recommend you to use the
Smart Setup Configuration Utility if your ISP has provided you with.
Before installing the
PRG AV4202N
software please close all applications to avoid any conflict.
This utility offers a guided product tour, a step by step hardware installation
guide, a software installation guide and setup depending on your connection
choice (USB or ETHERNET) and a driven user registration with DSL Internet
connection line check.
Smart Setup Configuration Utility allows, for supported Microsoft® Windows
Operating Systems, to setup automatically your computer Ethernet settings.
To launch it, insert the CD-ROM in CD-ROM unit: if the auto-play function is en-
abled it will start automatically, otherwise open it manually from “
x:
”, where
x
is
your CD-ROM drive letter.

ETHERNET CONNECTION
In case you already established a connection with your Router a first time
and/or you do need to set up manually a connection to your Router, please fol-
low the instructions described in this chapter. You will be guided to set up an
Ethernet connection to the Router. To do so, first you have to verify the exis-
tence of a TCP/IP protocol stack and, then, according to your Operating Sys-
tem, to establish an Ethernet connection to it. This connection will require you to
enable your computer to receive from the Router its own IP Address automati-
cally: in such a case, the Router acts like the DHCP server in your local net-
work.
