Dynamic IP

If your ISP provides the DHCP service, please select Dynamic IP, and the router will

automatically get IP parameters from your ISP.

Click Renew to renew the IP parameters from your ISP.

Click Release to release the IP parameters.

• MTU(Bytes) - The normal MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) value for most Ethernet

networks is 1500 Bytes. It is not recommended that you change the default MTU size

unless required by your ISP.

• Enable IGMP Proxy - IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is used to manage

multicasting on TCP/IP networks. Some ISPs use IGMP to perform remote configuration

for client devices, such as the modem router. The default value is enabled, and if you

are not sure, please contact your ISP or just leave it.

• Get IP with Unicast - A few ISPs’ DHCP servers do not support the broadcast

applications. If you cannot get the IP address normally, you can choose this option. (It

is rarely required.)
