10.1 Overview
This chapter discusses the MWR222’s WAN screens. Use these screens to
configure your MWR222 for Internet access.
A WAN (Wide Area Network) connection is an outside connection to another
network or the Internet. It connects your private networks such as a LAN (Local
Area Network) and other networks, so that a computer in one location can
communicate with computers in other locations.
Figure 53 LAN and WAN
The MWR222 has two different types of WAN connection. The standard Ethernet
WAN connections and the USB port for a 3G adapter.
The standard Ethernet WAN connection is the port labeled “LAN” on the back of
the router. The user needs to configure the Ethernet port to WAN to make it to
work.
