WAN
WAN is short for Wide Area Network. The WAN settings can be referred to
as the Public settings. All IP information in the WAN settings are public IP
addresses which are accessible on the Internet.
The WAN settings consist of three main options:
Dynamic IP Address
,
Static IP Address
, and
PPPoE
. Select the appropriate option and fill in the
information needed to connect to your ISP.
Home > WAN
Dynamic IP Address
Choose
Dynamic IP Address
to obtain IP address information automatically
from your ISP. Select this option if your ISP does not give you any IP
numbers to use. This option is commonly used for Cable modem services.
Host Name:
The Host Name field is optional but may be required by some
ISPs. The host name is the device name of the Router.
MAC Address:
The default MAC address is set to the WAN's physical
interface MAC address on the Broadband Router. You can use the "Clone
MAC Address" button to copy the MAC address of the Ethernet Card
installed by your ISP and replace the WAN MAC address with this MAC
address. It is not recommended that you change the default MAC address
unless required by your ISP.
Please be sure
to remove any existing
PPPoE client software
installed on your
computers

Choose Static IP Address if all WAN IP information is provided to you by
your ISP. You will need to enter in the IP address, subnet mask, gateway
address, and DNS address(es) provided to you by your ISP. Each IP
address entered in the fields must be in the appropriate IP form, which are
four IP octets separated by a dot (x.x.x.x). The Router will not accept the IP
address if it is not in this format.
IP Address:
Public IP address provided by your ISP.

Please be sure to remove
any Client Software program
on your computer before you
start your configuration of the
DI-514 Router.
Choose PPPoE (Point to
Point Protocol over Ethernet)
if your ISP uses PPPoE
connection. Your ISP will
provide you with a username
and password. This option is
typically used for DSL
services. Select Dynamic
PPPoE to obtain an IP
address automatically for
your PPPoE connection.
Select Static PPPoE to use a static IP address for your PPPoE connection.
Dynamic PPPoE:
PPPoE connection where you will receive an IP address
automatically from your ISP
Static PPPoE:
PPPoE connection where you have an assigned (static) IP
address
User Name:
Your PPPoE username provided by your ISP
Password:
Your PPPoE password provided by your ISP
Retype Password:
Re-enter PPPoE password
Service Name:
Enter the service name provided by your ISP. (optional)
IP Address:
This option is only available for Static PPPoE. Enter in the
static IP address for the PPPoE connection.
Primary DNS Address:
Primary DNS IP provided by your ISP
Secondary DNS Address:
optional
Maximum Idle time:
The amount of time of inactivity before disconnecting
your PPPoE session. Enter a Maximum Idle Time (in minutes) to define a
maximum period of time for which the Internet connection is maintained
during inactivity. If the connection is inactive for longer than the defined
Maximum Idle Time, then the connection will be dropped. Either set this to
zero or enable Auto-reconnect to disable this feature.
MTU:
MTU stands for Maximum Transmission Unit. For PPPoE connections,
you may need to change the MTU settings in order to work correctly with

your ISP.
Auto-reconnect:
If enabled, the Broadband Router will automatically
connect to your ISP after your system is restarted or if the connection is
dropped.
Home > LAN
LAN is short for Local Area Network. This is considered your internal
network. These are the IP settings of the LAN interface for the DI-514. These
settings may be referred to as Private settings. You may change the LAN IP
address if needed. The LAN IP address is private to your internal network
and cannot be seen on the Internet.
IP Address:
The IP address of the LAN interface. The default IP address is
192.168.0.1.
Subnet Mask:
The subnet mask of the LAN interface. The default subnet

Home > DHCP
DHCP
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DI-514 has a built-in
DHCP server. The DHCP Server will automatically assign an IP address to
the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to
be DHCP clients by setting their TCP/IP settings to “Obtain an IP Address
Automatically.” When you turn your computers on, they will automatically
load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DI-514. The DHCP Server
will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool to
the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address
of the IP address pool.
Starting IP address:
The starting IP address for the DHCP server’s IP
assignment.
Ending IP address:
The ending IP address for the DHCP server’s IP
assignment.
Lease Time:
The length of time for the IP lease.
