DSL-502G ADSL Router User's Guide
When you finished making changes to the PPP configuration, click the OK button to save the changes. It will be
necessary to restart the Router for the new configuration to go into effect.
PPPoE Information
This read-only field provides information regarding the status of the Router connection to the WAN. The global
IP Address for the Router should be assigned automatically by the network service provider's PPP server. The
Connection Status will read Disconnect until the Router has established the WAN connection.
Connect to WAN
If you have enabled the Connect on Demand feature, the Router will have established the WAN connection upon
restarting.
If the Connect on Demand feature has been disabled, click the Connect button to initiate the PPP connection via
the ADSL WAN interface. The "handshake" process will take a few seconds. To sever the WAN connection,
click on the Disconnect button.

IPoA Configuration

The IP over ATEM connection method uses a different method to connect to the WAN. Some IpoA connections
operate in a way similar to peer-to-peer connections, and therefore do not require a global IP address for the
WAN interface. Some networks using IpoA do require global IP settings. In this case the settings are assigned
manually or by DHCP. The default configuration for IpoA is peer-to-peer connection, that is, global IP settings
are not required.
Router with IPoA Configuration
For peer-to-peer network connections, check the IP Unnumbered box (checked by default) and click OK.
For DHCP service, check the DHCP client box and click OK.
