6.5 IP address (IP address setting for the router)
An IP address (Internet
Protocol address) is a number
that facilitates the addressing
of computers and other
devices in an IP network.
If you need to use a specifi c
IP address from your Internet
provider, carry out the
following settings:
Get IP Address: Static means that you must use an IP address that has been determined by your Internet
provider. Dynamic is set as default for most German DSL providers, and is therefore set as
default here, too.
Static IP address: If required, enter the specified IP address.
IP Subnet Mask: If required, enter the specified Subnet IP address.
Gateway: If required, enter the specified standard Gateway IP address.
NAT: This fi eld should always be enabled.
TCP MTU Option: MTU stands for Maximal Transfer Unit and specifies the maximum packet size to be transferred.
If you are unsure about this setting, we recommend that you keep the default value. You can set
values between 0 and 1492.
All other settings are too specialised and are therefore not covered in this manual.
Click SAVE at the bottom of the window to save your settings.
