To configure a Dynamic IP Address connection for the Internet (WAN), follow these steps:
1.
Choose the Dynamic IP Address option in the WAN Settings section.
2.
The ATM settings at the top of the window should not be changed unless you have been instructed to change
them. However, if you are instructed to change the VPI or VCI values, type in the values assigned for your
account. Leave the ATM Interface and Virtual Circuit settings at the defaults (PVC-0 and Enabled) values for
now. This can be used later if you are configuring multiple virtual circuits for your ADSL service.
3.
In the Dynamic IP section, choose the Connection Type setting from the pull-down menu. This defines the
encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The available options are 1483 Routed VC-Mux, 1483 Routed
LLC-Mux, IPoA VC-Mux, IPoA LLC, and IPoA LLC(1577) . If you have not been provided specific information for
this section, leave the default setting
4.
Turn on the Default Route feature if you want to use the Router as the default route to the Internet for your LAN.
Whenever a computer on the LAN attempts to access the Internet, the Router becomes the Internet gateway to
the computer. If you have an alternative route for Internet traffic you may turn this off without affecting the
Router's connection.
5.
NAT should remain Enabled. If you disable NAT, you will not be able to use more than one computer for Internet
connections. NAT is enabled and disabled system-wide, therefore if you are using multiple virtual connections,
NAT will disabled on all connections.
6.
The IGMP feature is Disabled by default.
7.
When you are satisfied that all the Internet settings are configured correctly, click on the Apply button.
