WAN Connect Mode
There are 4 types of wireless connect modes: Obtain an IP Address Automatically, Fixed IP
Address, PPPoE connection and Pure Bridge.
Obtain an IP Address Automatically
When connecting to the ISP, your router also functions as a DHCP client. The device can
automatically obtain an IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, and DNS server addresses if
the ISP assigns this information via DHCP.
Select this protocol enables the device to automatically retrieve IP address.
Fixed IP Address
Select this option to set static IP information. You will need to enter the information provided to you
by your ISP.
IP Address: Enter your xed IP address. Each IP address entered must be in the appropriate IP
form, which is four IP octets separated by a dot (x.x.x.x). The Router will not accept the IP address
if it is not in this format. Leave the IP address as 0.0.0.0 to enable the device to automatically
obtain an IP address from your ISP.
Netmask: User can change it to others such as 255.255.255.128. Type the netmask assigned to
you by your ISP (if given).
Gateway: Enter the IP address of the default gateway.
