Macintosh Configuration
This section describes how to configure computers running Macintosh operating system versions 8.6
through 10.2 to share Internet access through the SpeedStream Gateway:
The first step is to check each computer's TCP/IP protocol settings. Because the Gateway uses the TCP/IP
network protocol for all functions, it is essential that the TCP/IP protocol be installed and configured
properly on each computer.
By default, the Gateway will act as a DHCP server, automatically providing a suitable IP address and
related information to each computer when the computer boots up.
Checking TCP/IP Settings
(MAC OS 8.6 through 9.x)
1.
Select
Apple Menu - Control Panel – TCP/IP
.
2.
Open the TCP/IP control panel. You should see a screen like the following:
