Hello
I am trying to hookup a 2Wire wireless router on my works network. I am trying to do this without effecting other devices and without my signal being detected. I understand how to hide the signal. I also read somewhere that I need to change the router configuration from Dynamic to Static because if I don't my router is going to be giving IP addresses to printers and other devices nearby and its going to mess things up. My question is how do I manually change the configuration to Static? There are all kinds of options on the setup page that go with Static IP option, such as ATM settings, I have no idea what these are such as, VPI=0 VCI=35 ATM Encapsulation=LLC. Then there is IP settings IP Address=(my ipad or computers ip address or the router's ip address?) Subnet Mask, Defalt Gateway. Then there is DNS Settings.
I tried plugging the router into the ethernet outlet and the router worked. I was able to access the internet. But I took it out because I didn't want it messing up other devices with the dynamic protocol.
I would like to set this up with out causing problems. Any help is appreciated.
