It is possible to renew the IP address by

PPP IP Address
The IP address to be used during a PPP
session. This defaults to the IP address
of the
interface.
Use the followi°± static IP address
(Default)
This is the IP address of your
Modem on your local network. This IP
address is specified on all computers
on your network as the Gateway IP
address. The IP address is also the IP
address you type into your browser lo-
cation bar to login to your modem’s web
interface.
Note:
If Server and Relay are turned off you need to assign IP addresses within
the same range to the PCs connected to the modem else they will not
be able to communicate with the modem.
For example, if your mo-
dem’s Ethernet interface address is 192.168.1.1 with a subnet mask of
255.255.255.0 you need to assign static addresses starting at 192.168.1.2
up to 192.168.1.253.
If you disable the DHCP server in the Modem you will need to either manually (stati-
cally) assign IP address information to each computer or use another device/com-
puter as DHCP server.
Note:
It is not recommended that you have more than one DHCP server enabled
on your network.

Lease time:
The lease time is the amount of time an
IP address issued by the DHCP service
of your modem is valid before being
updated. If all fields are 0, the allocated
IP address will be effective forever.
E°able DHCP Relay:
Allow PCs on LAN to request IP address
from other DHCP server.

Most other choices on this screen are personal preference and not critical to getting

NAT / Firewall
NAT (Network Address Translation al-
lows you to share the public IP ad-
dress assigned to the WAN (Wide Area
Network) interface of your modem with
multiple clients on your LAN (Local
Area Network). NAT also acts as a basic
firewall. The firewall feature protects the
PCs on your LAN from malicious attacks
from people on the Internet (e.g. DOS
attacks).
VLAN ID
If you decide to share this connection
with a VLAN, this field will be enabled
and you need to select your VLAN ID.
For example, if you have your Ethernet
interface in LAN Group 1 and your USB
interface in LAN Group 2 you can create
a VLAN for both groups to access each
other.

Priority Bits
Set the priority bit of the Ethernet frame
if using a VLAN.
