WAN - Wide Area Network

WAN refers to your Wide Area Network connection, i.e. your router's connection to your ISP and the
Internet. There are 2 items within the WAN section: ISP and SHDSL.
ISP
Default setting is PPPoE. If your ISP uses this access protocol, click Edit to input other parameters.
(On the Edit screen, click Advanced Options to modify the associated parameters.) If your ISP does
not use PPPoE, you can change the default WAN connection entry by clicking Change.
Some ISP may provide more service via different WAN connection. In this case, you can create
more connections by clicking Create to go to the configuration page to setup the type of sevice from
the list and then press Next to continue with the configuration. There are 5 types of ISP service to
choose from: RFC 1483 Routed, RFC 1483 Bridged, PPPoA Routed, IPoA Routed and PPPoE
Routed. The device can support maximum of up to 8 WAN connections.
Note: The application of multiple WAN connections depends on your Internet Service
Provider.
A simpler alternative is to select Quick Start from the main menu on the left window pane. Please
see the Quick Start section of the manual for more information.
