14.2.3.3.2 Configuring the WAN Uplink Protocol Settings for Routed IP
If you select Routed IP from the Protocol drop-down menu, the following screen will appear. Enter the desired
options, and then click Apply to save the settings.
NOTE:
1. If you experience any problems, reset the Router by pressing the reset button on the rear of the Router. Or follow
the instructions in section 16.2, “Restore Defaults,” to restore the Router to factory default settings. The actual
information displayed in this screen may vary, depending on the network connection established.
2. PPPoE is the factory default setting for Ethernet WAN Uplink.
Uplink Settings for WAN Uplink Port (Routed IP protocol)
Tunneling Factory Default = Enable
If Enabled, this option allows PPP traffic to be bridged to the WAN. This feature
allows you to use a PPPoE shim on the host computer to connect to the Internet
Service Provider, by bypassing the Router’s capability to do this.
DHCP Client Selecting a option allows you to either Enable or Disable the DHCP Client.
Click the top option labeled (enable DHCP Client) to allow the Router to obtain an IP
address automatically from your service provider.
Click the bottom option labeled (disable DHCP Client) to allow the Router to accept
static IP address information. Then, manually enter the IP values into the fields. Obtain
these values from your ISP.
IP Address The IP network address that your Router is on.
Subnet The IP subnet address that your Router is on.
Gateway The Router’s IP gateway address.
DNS Primary Provided by your Internet service provider.
DNS Secondary Provided by your Internet service provider.
Note: The values for the IP Address, Gateway, DNS Primary, and DNS Secondary are all “Override of the value
obtained from the PPP connection,” They default to “0.0.0.0,” in which case the override is ignored. It is
recommended that you do not change the values unless your Internet service provider instructs you to do so.
