WAN
Wide Area Network (WAN) is the source of your Internet connection.
New Connection
Your router can support up to eight different connections.
If you have multiple virtual
connections, you may need to utilize the static routing capabilities of the modem to pass
data correctly.
There are five types of WAN connections:
°
PPPoE Connection
°
PPPoA Connection
°
Static Connection
°
DHCP Connection
°
Bridge Connection
Before you make a new WAN connection, you should make sure you have an existing
Internet connection.

PPPoE Connection
PPP, or point-to-point protocol, is a method of establishing a network connection/session
between network hosts. PPPoE is a protocol for encapsulating PPP frames in Ethernet
frames and is described in RFC 2516. PPPoE provides the ability to connect to a network
of hosts over a simple bridging access device to a remote access concentrator. With this
model, each router uses its own PPP stack. Access control, billing, and type of service
control can all be done on a per-user rather than per-site basis.

PPPoA Connection
PPPoA is also known as RFC 2364. It is a method of encapsulating PPP packets in ATM
cells that are carried over the DSL line. PPP, or point-to-point protocol, is a method of
establishing a network connection/session between network hosts. It usually provides a
mechanism of authenticating users. Logical link control (LLC) and virtual circuit (VC) are
two different methods of encapsulating the PPP packet. Contact your service provider to
determine which encapsulation is being used on your Internet connection.

Static Connection
Static connection type is used whenever a known static IP address is assigned to the
router. Additional addressing information such as the subnet mask and the default
gateway must also be specified. Up to three Domain Name Server (DNS) addresses can
be identified. These servers resolve the name of the computer to the IP address mapped
to it and thus enable you to access other web servers by typing the symbolic name (host
name).
