Configuring Your Computer with Windows 95/98/ME
You may find that the instructions here do not exactly match your
version of Windows. This is because these steps and screenshots were
created from Windows 98. Windows 95 and Windows Millennium
Edition are very similar, but not identical, to Windows 98.
Step 1. Configure TCP/IP Settings
After you have completed the hardware setup by connecting your
devices, you need to configure your computer to connect to your
Barricade. You need to determine how your ISP issues your IP
address. Many ISPs issue these numbers automatically using a
networking technology known as Dynamic Host Control Protocol,
or DHCP. Other ISPs will specify your IP address and associated
numbers, which you must enter manually. This is also known as a
static IP address. How your ISP assigns your IP address determines
how you will configure your computer.

8.
After writing down your

you have recorded them
correctly. Click the "IP
Address" tab and then click
"Obtain an IP address
automatically." Click OK.

Windows may need
your Windows 95/98/
ME CD to copy some
files. After it finishes
copying, it will then
prompt you to restart
your system. Click "Yes" and your computer will shut down and
restart.
Step 2. Disable HTTP Proxy
You will need to verify that the "HTTP Proxy" feature of your Web
browser is disabled. This is so that your Web browser will be able to
view the configuration pages inside your Barricade. The following
steps are for Internet Explorer and for Netscape. Determine which
browser you use and follow the appropriate steps.
