Step 7.  Click on Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPV4)
Step 8.  Click the Properties button to open the Internet Properties (TCP/IP) Properties dialog.
Step 9.  If the ‘Use the Following IP Address’ box is already checked, then write down the displayed IP Address and jump to the Direct Connect Configuration

IP Address = 192.168.100.100   Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.000
