DESCRIPTION
Select Nailed-Up Connection if you do not want the connection to time out.
This value specifies the time in minutes that elapses before the Router automatically
disconnects from the PPTP server.
Type the IP address of the PPTP server.
Select this option If your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP address. This is the default
selection.
Select this option If the ISP assigned a fixed IP address.
Enter your WAN IP address in this field if you selected Use Fixed IP Address.
Your Router will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the IP address that you
assign. Unless you are implementing subnetting, use the subnet mask computed by the
Router.
Enter a Gateway IP Address (if your ISP gave you one) in this field.
Select this to get your WAN IP address from your ISP.
Select this option If the ISP assigned a fixed IP address.
Enter your WAN IP address in this field if you selected Use Fixed IP Address.
Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and the Router's
WAN IP address). The field to the right displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that
the ISP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server's IP
address in the field to the right. If you chose User-Defined, but leave the IP address set to
0.0.0.0, User-Defined changes to None after you click Apply. If you set a second choice
to User-Defined, and enter the same IP address, the second User-Defined changes to
None after you click Apply.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure a DNS
server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.
The MAC address section allows users to configure the WAN port's MAC address by either
using the Router's MAC address, copying the MAC address from a computer on your LAN or
manually entering a MAC address.
Select Factory default to use the factory assigned default MAC Address.
Select Clone the computer's MAC address - IP Address and enter the IP address of the
computer on the LAN whose MAC you are cloning.
Select this option and enter the MAC address you want to use.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the Router.
Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.
