! Configure the host PC’s IP address on the MobilePro using the
following procedure:
1. Tap Start, Settings, Control Panel, and double tap the network
icon.
2. Highlight NE2000 Compatible Ethernet Driver and select the
Properties button.
3. In the IP address tab, select (place a dot beside) “Obtain an IP
