Some ISPs take advantage of the 'host name' message in a DHCP packet such as @home to do the
authentication. When first installing, the ISP's tech people configure the host name as the 'Computer Name' of
the PC in the 'Networking' settings. When the Prestige is attached to the cable modem to connect to the ISP, we
should configure this host name in the Prestige's system (menu 1).
Menu 1 - General Setup
System Name= zyxel
Key Setting:
•
System Name= the system name must be the same as the PC's computer name.
3. Your ISP checks 'User ID'
This authentication type is used by RoadRunner ISP; currently they use RR-TAS (Toshiba Authentication
Service) and RR-Manager authentications. You must configure the correct 'Service Type', username and
password for your ISP in menu 4.
ISP's Name= MyISP
Encapsulation= Ethernet
IP Address Assignment= Dynamic
Menu 4 - Internet Access Setup
Service Type= RR-Toshiba
My Login= cso@zyxel
My Password= ********
