Hi Glen,
thanks for your reply. In the article you are refering me to, the following
is stated:
>>
On the Alternate Configuration tab, click User configured as shown in Figure
1 below and then type the appropriate values for the following items.
(Contact your network administrator for this information.):
• IP address
• Subnet mask
• Default gateway
• Preferred and alternate DNS server
• Preferred and alternate WINS server
<<
On my home network I am admin... how do I find values for all these; IP
address, Subent mask, Default gateway, DNS and WINS servers?
Thanks,
Strah
