Installation
Example 2: DHCP Client
If you have a dynamic IP address provided by your
ISP to access the Internet, please select the DHCP
Client radio button. Once the external IP address is
obtained via the DHCP protocol, there is no need to
give an External IP Address, External Gateway
Address, or Netmask. The DHCP server will
dynamically assign these fields. In general, you
should choose this option if you are connecting the
BOSS™ to a cable modem.
Some cable modem connections need you to
provide a specific hardware address. If this is the
case, you should fill in the hardware address that
you gave your ISP provider into the Hardware
Address field to override the original hardware
address. However, it does not update the original
hardware address stored in EEPROM.
If you would NOT like to override the hardware
address, you should set each field of the Hardware
Address to zero "00" (default setting).
