parameters for the selected connection type.
8.2.1 | Dynamic (DHCP) IP
The Default Internet Connection type is Dynamic or DHCP IP.

of connection.
Host Name
: The Host Name is optional, but it may be required by some ISPs.
MAC Address
: A MAC address is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of hardware for
identification. Some ISPs will require you to register a MAC address in order to access the Internet.
If you do not wish to re-register the MAC address with your ISP, you may assign the MAC address
you have currently registered with your ISP to the Barricade by clicking the [Clone MAC Address]
button.
NOTE
: If you are unsure of which PC the broadband connection originally set up, contact your ISP
and request they register a new MAC address for your account. Register using the Barricade’s MAC
address which can be found on the STATUS page.

8.2.2 | PPPoE
Some DSL ISPs require a username and password to get online.
This type of connection method is
called PPPoE or Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. If you have been assigned a username and
password from your ISP then you will use this Internet connection option.
Username and Password
: Enter the PPPoE user name and password assigned by your Internet
Service Provider.
Service Name
: The Service Name is normally optional, but may be required by some service
providers.
MTU
: The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) governs the maximum size of the data packets. Leave
this on the default value (1492) unless you have a particular reason to change it.
Connect on Demand
: 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 Maximum Idle Time, it will be dropped.
When checked, the [Auto-reconnect] option will automatically re-establish the connection when an
application attempts to access the Internet again.
WARNING
: If you are using an ISP that charges based on the amount of time that you are online,
disable the Auto-Reconnect option and set your Max Idle Time to 2 minutes.
