Router With A Dhcp-Based Dsl/Cable Connection - SMC Networks EliteConnect SMCWHSG44-G User Manual

If the SMCWHSG44-G was set to be in Router with a PPPoE-Based
DSL/Cable Connection mode, two IP addresses are needed: one for the
Ethernet LAN interface and the other for the WAN interface. The LAN IP
address must be set manually to a private IP address, say 192.168.0.xxx. The
default LAN IP address is 192.168.2.1 and the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. In most cases, these default settings need no change.
As for the WAN IP address, it is obtained automatically by PPPoE from the
ISP. Consult your ISP for the correct User name, Password, and Service
name settings.
The Trigger mode setting specifies the way a PPPoE connection is
established. Your PPPoE connection can be established and disconnected
manually (Manual) by clicking the Connect and Disconnect buttons on the
Start page, respectively. Or you can choose to let the device automatically (Auto)
establish a PPPoE connection at boot-up time. In Auto mode, if the connec-
tion is disrupted, the device will try to re-establish the broken
connection automatically.
Custom MAC Address of WAN Interface enables you to change the MAC
address of the Ethernet WAN interface. Therefore, if the ISP-provided DSL or
cable modem works only with the ISP-provided Ethernet card for a computer,
the WAN interface of the Router can mimic the ISP-provided Ethernet card
by changing its MAC address to the Ethernet card's MAC address.
