DSL/Cable Modem Internet Access

Before you connect a broadband access device, e.g. a DSL/Cable modem, to the router,
you need to know what kind of Internet access is provided by your ISP.
The following paragraphs deal with three widely used broadband access services. These
are PPPoE Client, PPTP Client, and Static IP for DSL/Cable Modem. In most cases,
you will get a DSL/Cable modem from the broadband access service provider. The router
is connected behind the broadband device and works as a NAT or IP router for
broadband and ISDN connections.
In addition to broadband access capabilities, the ISDN port can do dial backup, or
provide remote access and remote management functions to support more flexible
network connectivity. The following application scenario shows that the head office is
capable of getting on to the Internet through the DI-304 and a broadband device and
connecting to the branch office via an ISDN network simultaneously.
