How to Use the Quickstart Page
Quickstart is normally used immediately after the new hardware is
installed. When you are first configuring your Gateway, Quickstart
appears after you log on.
(Once you have configured your Gateway, logging on displays the Home
page. Thereafter, if you need to use Quickstart, choose it from the Config-
ure menu.)
The Quickstart page you see depends on your type of Gateway and the
type of connection to your service provider. You may have one of the fol-
lowing types of connection to your service provider:
DHCP (without PPP) - see
“Setup Your Gateway using a DHCP Connec-
tion” on page 37
PPP - see
“Setup Your Gateway using a PPP Connection” on page 40
Static IP Address -
“Setup Your Gateway using a Static IP Address” on
page 41

system.

gaming or small office environments, or where LAN-side servers are
involved.
