Configuration process 3 Wizard pages
Step 4 WAN Interface Setup page
WAN (Wide Area Network) is your Internet
connection. Your choices to define this
connection are:
DHCP Client – Your service provider assigns a
dynamic (temporary) IP address. This is the
most common interface type.
Static IP – You have purchased a static
(permanent) IP address.
PPPoE – This is a protocol that establishes a
direct connection to your service provider
(rather than routing an IP address). This is
common with DSL.
Note: Make note of the connection type you select
here because you use it again in Step 6
.
Click the radio button that corresponds to your service account’s interface type:
z DHCP Client
No configuration is required.
z Static IP
If you purchased a static IP address, you received from your service provider the standard
Internet connection data (see page 12
) for the fields under this heading.
z PPPoE
If your service provider uses PPPoE, you received from your service provider your account
login information, which you enter here.
If the PPP account includes a static IP address, enter it into the
Self IP field, and enter the
subnet mask into the
Mask field.
