To configure a Dynamic IP Address connection for the WAN, follow these steps:
1. Choose the Dynamic IP Address option from the WAN Settings pull-down menu.
2. Under the ATM VC Settings at the top of the window should not be changed unless you have been
instructed to change them. However, if you are instructed to change the VPI or VCI values, type in the
values assigned for your account. Leave the PVC and Virtual Circuit setting at the default (Pcv0 and
Enabled) values for now. This can be used later if you are configuring multiple virtual circuits for your ADSL
service. For more information on ATM VC Settings, see the table on page 46 below.
3. Under the Dynamic IP heading, choose the Connection Type from the pull-down menu. This defines both
the connection type and encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The available options are 1483
Bridged IP LLC and 1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux. If have not been provided specific information for the
Connection Type setting, leave the default setting.
4. Some ISPs record the unique MAC address of your computer's Ethernet adapter when you first access their
network. This can prevent the Router (which has a different MAC address) from being allowed access to the
ISPs network (and the Internet). To clone the MAC address of your computer's Ethernet adapter, type in
the MAC address in the Cloned MAC Address field and click the Clone MAC Address button.
5. Leave the MTU value at the default setting (default = 1400) unless you have specific reasons to change
this (see table below).
6. NAT should remain Enabled. If you disable NAT, you will not be able to use more than one computer for
Internet connections. NAT is enabled and disabled system-wide, therefore if you are using multiple virtual
connections, NAT will disabled on all connections.
7. The Firewall should remain enabled for most users. If you choose to disable this you will not be able to use
the features configured in the Firewall Configuration and Filters windows located in the Advanced
directory. See the next chapter for more details on these windows.
8. Most users will not need to change ATM settings. If this is the first time you are setting up the ADSL
connection it is recommended that you leave the Service Category settings at the default values until you
have established the connection. See the table on page 44 for a description of the parameters available for
ATM traffic shaping.
9. When you are satisfied that all the WAN settings are configured correctly, click on the Apply button.
10. The new settings must be saved and the Router must be restarted for the settings to go into effect. To save
and reboot the Router, click on the Tools directory tab and then click the System button. In the System
Settings window, click the Save and Reboot button under Save Settings and Reboot the System.
11. Click OK when the following "Save and restart?" dialog box opens.
12. The Router will save the new settings and restart. Upon restarting the Router will automatically establish
the WAN connection.
