The window shows the user interface for the DOS operating system. As a rule the
mouse does not work in this environment. You will have to carry out all the func-
tions through manual entry and pressing the ENTER key. The prompt is already in
the right position and is flashing.
ì
Enter the command
IPCONFIG
and press the ENTER key.
After a few moments, the configuration of all your network adapters will be dis-
played. Frequently there is only one. If there is more than one, note the name of the
card that is responsible for the connection to the LAN.
The IP address in the line Default Gateway is important. This must contain the IP
address of the Gigaset WLAN Repeater.
ì
At the prompt, enter the command
IPCONFIG /RELEASE
and then the name of
the network adapter that is to be given the correct IP address, in this example
"Wireless network connection"
.
Example:
IPCONFIG /RELEASE "Wireless network connection"
You have to include the quotation marks if the name contains a space. You can also
specify the name with a wildcard (joker).
Example:
IPCONFIG /RELEASE Wire*
This command will affect all the network cards whose name starts with
Wire
.
