Broadband Wireless Router (AP) User Manual

Obtain an IP address automatically

The WAN IP address and the default gateway IP address is assigned by the ISP or DHCP
server of another subnet or xDSL/ATU-R. ( If the modem system has DHCP server capability,
the Broadband Wireless Router (AP) can act as a DHCP client and receive its WAN IP
address and subnet mask from the modem.)

Specify an IP Address

If your ISP has assigned a fixed permanent IP address for you, choose this connection mode
and configure these parameters:
IP Address/Subnet Mask: Enter the fixed IP address and its associated subnet mask
provided by your ISP.
Default Gateway: This function allows you to set up the default gateway on the WAN
interface of your router. Please enter the gateway IP address provided by your ISP.
DNS Relay: Set up the IP address of the DNS (Domain Name System) server. The DNS
server address will be passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address. The DHCP
clients use the DNS to map a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa.
