requests from your device be sent as broadcasts or unicasts for IP address
settings for Internet access.

Use default gateway – This parameter automatically created a default gateway

must be entered in manually in the device routing table settings. Typically, this
parameter does not need to be modified.


address cloning where you can assign a LAN computer MAC address to the
WAN interface. Applied to DHCP client WAN protocol.

Override MTU – The default MTU (maximum transfer unit) or frame size is set
to 1500 bytes. This parameter allows you to assign a new MTU size. For
PPPoE/PPTP/L2TP WAN protocols, if you experience issues accessing SSL/HTTPS
secure websites, you can try lower the MTU value to 1492 to decrease the
amount of packet errors. Typically, this parameter does not need to be
modified.
WAN VLAN Tagging

2. Click on Network and click VLAN.
3. Under the VID, you can enter the VID required by your ISP and set the WAN interface
