1. Assigning a static IP
Address
PREPARED BY: JULIE MAE HERSALINA

2. In a home network with several computers and devices,
it is ideal to assign each of them a specific address. This
is for the purpose of avoiding problems when you do
troubleshooting which requires figuring out the IP
address of each of them. It is also a means to prevent
address conflicts between the devices.

3. Here are the procedures in assigning an IP
Address on a windows base Computer System:
1. Open the Control Panel’s Network Connections icon.
2. Open the icon representing your computer’s network connection.
3. Click the Properties button in the Status dialog box.

4. 4. From the list of items,
choose Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP).
Wireless Network Connections Properties Dialog Box

5. 5. Click the
Properties
button. The
Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP)
Properties dialog
box appears.
TCP / IPV4 Dialog Box

6. 6. Type the IP address for your computer. Enter
the appropriate IP Address in the IP address
section.
7. Type a subnet mask. The value used on a
local network is commonly 255.255.255.0, but
it can be different, such as 255.255.255.127.

7. 8. Type the default gateway address. The
default gateway is the router, so type the
router’s address. Figure in no. 5 shows an
example of assigning an IP Address, Subnet
mask and default gateway.

The alternate Domain Name System (DNS) server’s
IP address is something that your ISP provides.
