7.2.2.1 General Setup
You can switch between Static, DHCP or PPPoE protocols by selecting the one that you want to use and then
pressing the 'Switch Protocol'* button.
*The "Switch protocol" button does not apply any changes. In order for the changes to take effect, you must click the "Save" button found at the bottom
left corner of the window after you are done making changes.
7.2.2.1.1 Static:
The Static protocol is used when the source of your internet doesn't have a DHCP server enabled. Therefore, in
order to connect to the internet, you have to make configurations in accordance to the source (much like in the
In section of this user's manual.)

Sample Value Explanation
Static The protocol used by the WAN interface
192.168.90.66 Your router's address on the WAN network
255.255.255.0 A mask used to define how "large" the WAN network is
192.168.90.254 The address where the router will send all the outgoing traffic
192.168.90.255 Broadcast address (auto generated if not set). It is best to leave this

8.8.8.8 Usually the gateway has some predefined DNS servers. As such the
router, when it needs to resolve a hostname ("www.google.com",
8.8.4.4 "www.cnn.com", etc...) to an IP address, it will forward all the DNS
requests to the gateway. By entering custom DNS servers the router
will take care of the host name resolution. You can enter multiple DNS
servers to provide redundancy in case one of the servers fails
