Default How To: Manually Configure an IP Address Step by Step

How to manually configure your IP address

Sometimes it is neccessary to manually configure IP addresses of PCs in order to solve certain network issues when multiple PCs are running off the same

router or gateway PC. The following step by step guide wil get you through the process. This is for XP--but applies to Win OS in general.

1) Click Start

2) Click Control Panel

3) Double Click Network Connections

4) Under LAN or High-Speed Internet Doubleclick the enabled device (the Local Area Connection or the Wireless Network Connestion)

5) On the Status Box Window that opens Click the Properties button

6) Drag the Properties window beside the Status window

7) Click the SUpport tab on the Status window

8) Click the Details button--this window provides the information you will need to manually configure your IP

9) In the Properties window that you have open beside the Status windows scroll down through the devices until you get to Internet Protocol TCP/IP

10} Select Internet Protocol TCP/IP and click the properties button

11) In the Properties window that opens select "Use the following IP address"

12) If you have a number of machines begin by setting the IP address to 192.168.1.100 then go to 192.168.1.101 and so forth giving each machine a unique IP

on the network

13) The subnet mask has a default value of 255.255.255.0 in most cases

14) Copy the Default Gateway from the Network Connection Details window information (192.168.1.1 is common)

15) Copy the DNS Server info from the Details window--there will likely be two adresses to copy.

16) Close all the windows and test your internet connection

17) Repeat the process on all the machines on the network giving each a unique IP address.

Hope this helps unsnarl your network traffic!

should two computers connected to the same router have the same subnet mask and DNS and default gateway?

Good faq! Well structured and easy to understand. Also, don't forget that it’s quite common to get private networks with the 10.1.1.1 ip address as well (subnet will be 255.0.0.0)

It should have the same IP address series (i.e 192.168.0.XXX) and same subnet mask. That would allow the pc’s to share files and printers. If the pc’s would like to access the internet, then it should have the same DNS servers and Default gateway. Usually, you need to set the default gateway (normally the router’s ip address) and leave the DNS settings to auto

I've assigned some static IP's before and I seem to recall that if you use static IP's, it disables auto DNS settings and you have to put them in on your own. That may just be my network or NIC though.

I think that's true for WinXp. In that case, either your dns settings which should be on your WAN page of your router. Thanks for clearing that up :)
