Ethernet WAN
The Ethernet WAN radio button will allow you to change the LAN 4 Ethernet part from a
LAN port into a WAN port. This would be useful if you wish to use your router to connect
via a Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) router, or as an access point on a Ethernet network.
This function has been pre-configured with the Telkom Guest account. If you have not used
the Wizard to configure this as an internet connection (firmware 246.70.7 onwards), then you
will need to do so manually.
There are two pre-configured setups for Ethernet WAN connections. Eth-WAN (PVC7) is the
default internet access configuration, and VPN-Lite (PVC6) is preconfigured for the VPN lite
service. It is recommended that should you be using the VPN lite service that you configure
as per the VPN Lite chapter in this guide, and do not do so manually.
