Chapter 2
Configuration
The default settings of the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway will work for
many users. If your ISP uses DHCP and assigns dynamic IP Addresses, you may
not need to make changes to the configuration, though it is recommended that
you change the Local Network Port settings to match the DNS information from
your ISP as described in this chapter.
If your cable/DSL provider uses PPPoE (EnterNet, MacPoet or WinPoet) or has
given you a static IP Addresses, you will need to configure the Skyline Wireless
Broadband Gateway. The configuration web utility appears in your browser
offering several navigational links and buttons to help you access all of the
features of the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway.
The Help button provides context-sensitive help at each data
input screen of the configuration web utility.
The Configure button allows you to configure the main settings
of the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway.
The Status button takes you to the status screens.
The Home link (on every page except the Home page) takes you
back to the introductory screen.
Advanced configuration features are accessible from their main
links. They include: Routing, Advanced Internet and Access
Control.
