refer to the documentation that was shipped with your operating system for
information on how to modify the computer’s IP address settings.

(or Network and Dial-up Connections) control panel according to how the Start
menu is set up:
• On Windows XP, click Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.
• On Windows 7, click Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet >
Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings.
2 When the Network Connections window appears, right-click the icon for Local
Area Connection, and then click Properties.

Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) (TCP/IPv4 in Windows 7) from the scrolling list, and
then click Properties. The Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box
