hi
I am a newbie. I posted that question in another forum but obviously that is the best one.
I merely know how to set an ip address/subnet mask/dns info in tcp/ip properties of my nic properties.
we got temporary internet through dsl + access point netgear me102 + laptops; everything works fine.
but now we need to forget about the dsl line cause we got a t1 line (split voice data). I can get out plugging myself into a netgear switch and setting my nic with one of the ip address and subnet mask that t1 provider gave me.
the problem is they gave us a subnet mask that is not 255.255.255.0, which is the subnet mask of the access point THAT I CAN'T CHANGE. so access point must receive ip by dhcp.
we do have a Cisco router 2600.
how can I set ip address and subnet mask on that Cisco router 2500? and set it to dhcp?
can I do it all through HyperTerminal?
with what kind of cables? can I use some kind of software based configurator for dummies?
thank you for any tip or any link to an "howtostepbystep" page.
