Alternate Setup Method
Setting your ISP Connection Type to PPPoE or PPPoA
PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) is the standard method of
connecting networked devices° It requires a user name and password to
access the network of your ISP for connecting to the Internet° PPPoA (PPP
over ATM) is similar to PPPoE, but is mostly implemented in the UK° Select
PPPoE or PPPoA and click “Next”° Then enter the information provided by
your ISP, and click “Apply Changes” to activate your settings°
1. User Name
–
Enter the user name° (Assigned by your ISP)
2. Password –
Enter your password° (Assigned by your ISP)
3. Retype Password –
Confirm the password°
(Assigned by your ISP)
4. Service Name –
Enter a service name (optional)°
5. VPI/VCI –
Enter your Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual
Circuit Identifier (VCI) parameter here° (Assigned by your ISP)

6. Encapsulation –
Select your encapsulation type here°
(Supplied by your ISP)
VC-MUX:
PPPOA Virtual Circuit Multiplexer (null encapsulation)
allows only one protocol running per virtual circuit with fewer
overheads°
LLC:
PPPoA Logical Control allows multiple protocols running
over one virtual circuit (more overhead)°
7. MTU –
Enter the MTU value for your ISP°
8. Disconnect after x minutes of no activity –
Check the box
and enter the number of minutes when you want the Router
to auto-disconnect after no activity° After this time has been
exceeded, the connection will be terminated°

Router can obtain an IP address automatically from your ISP’s DHCP server or
accept a fixed IP address assigned by your ISP°
For Dynamic IP connection:
1. IP Assigned by ISP –
Select “Yes” if your ISP instructed you to use a fixed IP°
2. Host Name –
Enter a host name°
3. VPI/VCI –
Enter your VPI and VCI parameter here° These identifiers are

1. IP assigned by ISP –
Select “No” if your ISP instructed you to use a fixed IP°
2. IP Address –
Enter an IP address assigned by your ISP for the Router’s
WAN interface°
3. Subnet Mask –
Enter a subnet mask assigned by your ISP°
4. Default Gateway –
Enter a default gateway IP address assigned by your ISP°
5. VPI/VCI –
Enter your Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Circuit Identifier

Setting your ISP Connection Type to Static IP (IPoA)
This connection type is also called “Classical IP over ATM” or “CLIP”, which
your ISP provides to a fixed IP for your Router to connect to the Internet°
1. IP Address –
Enter an IP address assigned by your ISP for the
Router’s WAN interface°
2. Subnet Mask –
Enter a subnet mask assigned by your ISP°
3. Default gateway –
Enter a default gateway IP address° If
the Router cannot find the destination address within its local
network, it will forward the packets to the default gateway
assigned by your ISP°
4. VPI/VCI –
Enter your VPI and VCI parameter here° These
identifiers are assigned by your ISP°
5. Encapsulation –
Select LLC or VC MUX that your ISP uses°
Click “Apply Changes” to save and activate your settings° To go back to
the original settings before saving, click “Clear Changes”; or click any of the

Setting your Connection Type to Modem Only (Disable Internet Sharing)
In this mode, the Router simply acts as a bridge passing packets across the
DSL port° It requires additional software to be installed on your computers
in order to access the Internet°
1. VPI/VCI –
Enter your VPI and VCI parameter here° These
identifiers are assigned by your ISP°
2. Encapsulation –
Select the LLC or VC MUX that your
