again. A message box appears confirming that the "Configuration has been
read from the Bridge" (i.e., 128.104.224.1). Click
OK
.
To enable the DHCP client and choose the appropriate interface, do the following:
1
From the

. The IP Setup dialog box appears.

option.

Next, select the interface for Ethernet or wireless network from the

Note:
The information for Default TTL should already be entered. The IP host on the Internet
sends out each packet with a default "Time to Live" parameter. If you want to override
the factory default of 64 attempts, you can specify your new default here. This
parameter should not be changed less you are very familiar with IP functionality and
how the Time to Live parameter will affect how packets are treated by your network, as
well as the network to which you are bridged (or routed).
