1. If Windows Me did not come pre-installed on your computer, locate your Windows Me installation CD. You may be asked to insert it at the end of the update process.
2. From your desktop, click with the right mouse button on My Network Places and select the Properties menu item.
If you cannot find My Network Places, you can go to the Start Menu, then look under Settings for the Control Panel. Find the Network icon in the Control Panel and open it.
3. You should see the Configuration page of the Network control panel. If you have a modem or more than one network card, there may be more items listed. Find the entry for TCP/IP associated with your network card, select it, and click on the Properties button.
4. On the IP Address page, set the IP Address to an available address from your IP block or private network. (Home DSL users: enter the new IP address assigned to you.) If you have a routable IP block, enter the Subnet Mask provided; otherwise, use 255.255.255.0.
Use the IP Address (or range) provided to you, not the one in this example!
5. Click on the Gateway tab. If there is anything in the list of Installed Gateways, select it, then click on Remove.
6. Now type in the IP address of your router in the New Gateway box and click on Add. (Home DSL users: use the Gateway IP address provided.)
Be sure to use the IP address of your router or gateway, not the one in this example!
7. You should now see your router's IP address (or your gateway) in the list of installed gateways.
8. Click on the DNS Configuration tab. Make sure DNS is enabled. Enter the name of your computer for Host. You can leave Domain blank, or you can enter your fully-qualified domain name (such as yourcompany.com or intranet.yourcompany.com). Enter 98.191.156.4 under DNS Server Search Order and click on Add.
9. Now enter 98.191.156.2 under DNS Server Search Order and click on Add. Click on OK to close the TCP/IP panel.
10. Click on OK again until you close the Network control panel.
If Windows Me did not come pre-installed on your system, you may be asked to insert your Windows Me installation CD. You may need to direct it to the drive letter of your CD drive. If it tells you that a file on your system is newer than the version on the CD, tell it to keep the version on your system.
11. You may need to restart your computer for the settings to take effect
