ADSL Mode Select the kind of connection your Device uses to connect to the ISP.
Use Auto Sync-Up if you are not sure which type to choose.
Use ADSLT1.413, ADSLG.DMT, ADSLG.lite, ADSL2, ADSL2+, ADSL2_AnnexM,
ADSL2+_AnnexM, or READSL2 if you know the specific type of DSL the Device uses
to connect to the ISP.
General
Mode Select Router (default) from the drop-down list box if your ISP gives you one IP
address only and you want multiple computers to share an Internet account. Select
Bridge when your ISP provides you more than one IP address and you want the
connected computers to get individual IP address from ISP’s DHCP server directly. If
you select Bridge, you cannot use Firewall, DHCP server and NAT on the Device.
Encapsulation Select the method of encapsulation used by your ISP from the drop-down list box.
This field is available if you select Router in the Mode filed.
User Name (PPPoA and PPPoE encapsulation only) Enter the user name exactly as your ISP
assigned. If assigned a name in the form user@domain where domain identifies a
service name, then enter both components exactly as given.
Password (PPPoA and PPPoE encapsulation only) Enter the password associated with the user
name above.
Service Name (PPPoE only) Type the name of your PPPoE service here.
Multiplex This displays for an ADSL virtual channel. Select the method of multiplexing used by
your ISP from the drop-down list. Choices are VC-Mux or LLC.
IPv6/IPv4 Dual Stack This is not available if you select PPPoA in the Encapsulation field.
Select IPv4 to have the Device use only IPv4.
Select IPv4/IPv6 to let the Device connect to IPv4 and IPv6 networks and choose the
protocol for applications according to the address type.
Select IPv6 to have the Device use only IPv6.
PPP Authentication This is available if you select PPPoE or PPPoA in the Encapsulation field.
The Device supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge
Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP provides more security than PAP;
however, PAP has higher availability on more platforms.
Use the drop-down list box to select an authentication protocol for outgoing calls.
Options are:
Auto- Your Device accepts either CHAP or PAP when requested by this remote node.
CHAP - Your Device accepts CHAP only.
PAP - Your Device accepts PAP only.
