Commands button. Click on the Save All button to store the configuration settings. Click on Back
button to return to the System Commands menu.
11. Check the WAN connection status. Click the Status tab and then the Connection Status button. Look
under WAN to view the State of Connection 1, it should read Connected. If the WAN connection state
does not appear to Connected after a few minutes, go back to the Connection 1 Setup menu, check the
settings and make sure they are correct.
Create a New Connection
An alternative method of changing the connection type used by the Router is to create a new connection.
Creating a new connection will not change the Connection 1 settings, it will make a new set of coneciton
configuration settings. The new set created will be labeled Connection 2, additional connections created will be
likewise labeled Connection 3, Connection 4 and so on. Use the method described here to create up to 8 different
connection configuration sets. At any time you may reconfigure the settings for any previously created
connection by clicking on the menu button for the connection displayed under the WAN Setup heading.
Use the New Connection procedure to create new connection used for accounts that
supports multiple virtual connections. For more information on creating and maintaining
virtual connection, see Multiple Virtual Connections in the following chapter on
Note
Advanced Router Management.
