Select the
TCP/IP component If
you have a modem in addition to the network card, be sure to select the TCP/IP component
with the arrow (->) pointing to the network card. |

| For most DSL
configurations, you'll need to select 'Obtain an IP address automatically'.
Your router will give each computer an IP address when the computer starts. |
|
| If
you have an ADSL modem or are using Clearwire, you'll need to 'Specify an IP
address' as shown. The IP address 192.168.1.2 shown is an example for a Clearwire
setup, an ADSL modem will require the IP address and Subnet Mask assigned to you by
Spinn.Net. If you have more than one computer connected to your Clearwire setup, increment
the last number in the 'IP Address' field for each system. |

Next you'll
need to specify the gateway for your computer to use to get on the net. This will be 192.168.1.1
as in the image in most cases. Just type it in the boxes provided and press the 'Add'
button. If that
doesn't work, contact Spinn.Net Tech Support. |
| Check the 'Enable
DNS' circle and fill in the information. The 'Host:' box is just
the name of your computer, it will only appear to anyone else if you have a network of
computers connected together. The 'Domain:' can remain blank in most
cases and the rest of the information you'll need to fill out as shown. |
