Step 3) DNS
A Domain Name System (DNS) server is like an index of IP addresses and Web addresses. If
you type a Web address into your browser, such as www.router.com, a DNS server will find that
name in its index and the matching IP address. Most ISPs provide a DNS server for speed and
convenience. If your Service Provider connects you to the Internet with dynamic IP settings, it is
likely that the DNS server IP address is provided automatically. However, if there is a DNS server
that you would rather use, you need to specify the IP address of that DNS server here.
Description
Enter the L2TP Account provided by your ISP for the PPTP
connection.
Enter the Password provided by your ISP for the L2TP
connection.
Re-enter the Password for confirmation.
Specify L2TP Server IP address that you want to connect to.
This is the IP address that your ISP has given you to establish
a L2TP connection.
Enter the Subnet Mask provided by your ISP.
(e.g. 255.255.255.0)
You can specify an idle time threshold (seconds) for the WAN
port. This means if no packets have been sent (no one using
the Internet) during this specified period, the router will
automatically disconnect the connection with your ISP.
