Changing the Connection Type

The default connection method used by the Router for the WAN connection is
PPP over Ethernet. If you wish to use this method you do not need to change this
setting. However if you plan to use a static IP address for a "Bridged Ethernet"
(RFC 1483) connection, or PPP over ATM (RFC 2364) you must select those
protocols in this window.
To change the connection method, select either Router with RFC 1483 or
Router with PPPoA from the pull down menu in the Encapsulation Protocol
field and click the OK button. It will then be necessary to save the change and
restart the Router. Read the Save Changes section later in this chapter.
Once the Router has been restarted it is ready to be configured according to the
connection method selected.
