Networking Basics

Check your IP address

After you install your adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server

(i.e. wireless router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.

Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK. (Windows Vista

users type cmd in the Start Search box.)

At the prompt, type ipconﬁg and press Enter.

This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and

the default gateway of your adapter.

If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter

installation, security settings, and the settings on

your router. Some rewall software programs may

block a DHCP request on newly installed adapters.
