I need to configure a windows XP PC to get a static IP address from a Linksys WRT 54G router which is connected to a Westell 6100 modem, which is connected to Verizon DSL. The router and PC were set at automatic configuration DHCP and connected to the internet. I changed the router to Static IP and got the following:
Internet IP: 74.x.x.x
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Static DNS 1: 68.238.112.12
Static DNS 2: 68.238.96.12
Then I manually entered the following into the PC:
IP address: 192.168.1.100
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Preferred DNS Server: 68.238.112.12
Secondary DNS Server: 68.238.96.12
It wasn't connecting to the internet. I changed the DNS server on the PC to 192.168.1.1, same as Default Gateway, but still didn't work.
What should I do?
