Operation and Status

Specified

IP Address

Also called a Static IP Address. If this option is selected, the follow-

ing data must be entered.

• IP Address - The IP address on the LAN or WAN.

• Network Mask - The subnet mask associated with the IP

address above.

• Gateway - The IP address of the router or gateway on the LAN

or WAN you are connecting to.

Note: If using PPPoE, the Network Mask and Gateway are not

required; just enter the IP address.

DNS

Automatically

obtain from Serve

The DNS (Domain Name Server) address is normally obtained

automatically from the DHCP Server which provides the IP address.

Note that if using a fixed IP address, then no Server is used, so this

option cannot be used.

Use this DNS

If this option is selected, you must enter the IP address of the DNS

(Domain Name Server) you wish to use.

If using a Static IP address, you must select this option.

MAC Address

Also called Network Adapter Address or Physical Address. This is a

low-level network identifier, as seen from the WAN port.

Normally there is no need to change this, but if necessary, you can

use the Copy from PC button to copy your PC's address into this

field. This is only necessary if the MAC address of your PC has

been recorded.

You can also use the Default button to insert the default value, or

enter a value directly.

Note:

To avoid problems regarding the MAC address, you should NOT

swap the LAN/WAN connection from your PC to the Wireless 3-in-

1 Companion, or from the Wireless 3-in-1 Companion to your PC.

Identification

Hostname

If using a dynamic IP address, this name is provided to the DHCP

Server. Normally, it does not matter what name you use.

If the LAN/WAN administrator asks you to use a particular Host-

name, enter it here.

Domain Name

Normally, this field has no effect.

If the LAN/WAN administrator asks you to use a particular Domain

name, enter it here
