14.4.5 WAN Detection
The following screen will appear if you select Advanced > WAN > WAN Detection from the main menu. If you
click the detect configuration button, your Gateway will initiate automatic detection of the WAN protocol per
VPI/VCI settings. The process detects DHCP-Enabled, Routed Bridge, or PPPoE Protocols. The process is as
follows:
1. The Gateway tries to detect the protocol to use for connecting to your ISP.
2. The Gateway waits indefinitely for the DSL/Ethernet hardware link to come up.
3. The Gateway tries the PPPoE and Routed IP protocols.
The Gateway will try up to two times until a protocol is detected or until cancelled. You will be unable to access any
other Gateway screens while the detection is in progress. Once a protocol is detected, automatic detection is not run
again.
