There are several connection types to choose from: Static IP, DHCP, PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP. If you are
unsure of your connection method, please contact your Internet Service Provider.

entered in your IP configuration settings. You must enter the IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, Primary
DNS Server, and Secondary DNS Server. Your ISP provides you with all of this information.
DHCP
A method of connection where the ISP assigns your IP address when your router requests one from the
ISP's server.
Host Name: Some ISP's may check your computer's Host Name. The Host Name identifies your system
to the ISP's server.
