Assigning a Static IP Address in Windows XP/2000
Note: Residential Gateways/Broadband Routers will automatically assign IP Ad-
dresses to the computers on the network, using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configura-
tion Protocol) technology. If you are using a DHCP-capable Gateway/Router you
will not need to assign Static IP Addresses.

of original retail purchase. If a material defect is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines in its sole
discretion that it is not practical to repair or replace the defective Hardware, the price paid by the original
