MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) value should only be
changed if advised to do so by Technical Support.
•
Enter a value between 1 and 1500.
•
This device will still auto-negotiate with the remote server,
to set the MTU size. The smaller of the 2 values (auto-
negotiated, or entered here) will be used.
•
For direct connections (not PPPoE or PPTP), the MTU
used is always 1500.
Normally, there is no need to change the default name, but if
your ISP requests that you use a particular Hostname, enter it
here.
If your ISP provided a domain name, enter it here. Otherwise,
this may be left blank.
Also called Network Adapter Address or Physical Address.
This is a low-level identifier, as seen from the WAN port.
Normally there is no need to change this, but some ISPs
require a particular value, often that of the PC initially used for
Internet access.
You can use the Copy from PC button to copy your PC's
address into this field, the Default button to insert the default
value, or enter a value directly.
