If you check this selection, Disable, remember to specify a static IP address, subnet Mask, and DNS setting for each of your
local computers. Be careful not to assign the same IP address to different computers.
¤ Enable: Check to enable the ADSL Router to distribute IP Addresses, subnet mask and DNS setting to computers. Hence,
the following fields will be activated.
Starting IP Address: Enter the starting address of this local IP network address pool. The pool is a piece of continuous IP
address segment. The default value is 192.168.1.100.
Number of DHCP users: Enter the maximum number of computers that you want the DHCP server to assign IP addresses
to. The default value is 100.
With this case, the DHCP pool is from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.199. Therefore, the local computer will get an IP address
located at this range randomly.
If there is already a DHCP server on your LAN, you should disable the router’s DHCP server function in
order to avoid possible conflicts.
3.4.2 WAN
The screens below contain settings for the WAN interface toward Internet.
ISP
There are five ways - PPPoE, PPPoA, RFC1483 routed, IPoA, PPTP-to-PPPoA Relaying - for the device to have a public
IP address and then to access Internet. You have to check with your ISP about which way is adopted.
VPI/VCI: Consult the telephone company to get the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) numbers.
The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255 and for the VCI is 32 to 65535. The default value VPI is 0 and VCI is 32.
NAT: The NAT feature allows multiple-user Internet access for the cost of a single IP account. If you need to have a public
server or a public network, NAT has to be disabled.
Encapsulation Method: Be sure to use the encapsulation method (LLC/SNAP or VC MUX) required by your ISP.
If you disable the ADSL Router’s NAT option, the Virtual Server and VPN functions will be disabled.
