Building a Home Wireless Network in Packet Tracer - sullivaneg/TechJournal-NET150 GitHub Wiki

In this lab we connected 2 laptops wirelessly to a router and used DHCP to assign IP addresses. In this lab we configured the wireless router the same way as we did in lab 12-1 except that we enabled SSID broadcast so we didn't have to use profiles to connect to the network. Also in this lab we changed the IPv4 to DHCP instead of assigning a static IP like we have been doing in previous labs. This allows DHCP to assign an IP to the laptops. This means that the IP address is being leased. This was important because when we changed the IP address of the router the IP addresses of the laptops were still the first leased IP address so they were in a different network.
