Static IP
To set up a Static IP connection, enter the following: IP Address of the Internet Connection, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and both DNS Servers.
This information can be obtained by either your Internet Service provider or Network Administrator. If your internet service provider requires a
username and password to connect, you will then be prompted to enter the correct information.
MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size permitted for internet transmission. The factory default MTU size of Static IP
is 1500. If you wish to manually change the MTU size, set it between 1200 and 1500.
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE)
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE): To set up a PPPoE connection, enter the Username, Password, and Service (name) of the internet
connection provided by your ISP. Click Next and the ESR300H should connect to the internet successfully. A PPPoE connection is usually from a

4. MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size permitted for internet transmission. The factory default MTU size of
Static IP is 1500. If you wish to manually change the MTU size, set it between 1200 and 1500.
5. Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)
To set up a PPTP connection, enter the type of WAN connection (Static IP or DHCP). After, depending on the type of WAN, follow the instructions
of DHCP or Static IP to fill out the corresponding information. Then, proceed to enter the Username, Password, Service, and Connection ID of the
PPTP internet connection. Once completed, click Next. Once configured, the internet connection will successfully connect.
