In the left hand menu pane, click

Advanced Setup

Under Advanced Setup, click

Layer2 Interface

then

ETH Interface

, then click the

Add

button.

Select an Ethernet port to use as a WAN interface.

Select a connection mode:

Default Mode

: a single service over the one connection

VLAN MUX Mode

: multiple VLAN services over the one connection

Click

Apply/Save

to add the appropriate WAN service.

Add a Bridge WAN Service

Add an EoA Layer 2 interface as described above (

Add a Layer 2 Interface

Under Advanced Setup click

WAN Service

then click

Add

On the

WAN Service Interface Configuration

page, select the DSL link associated with the

bridge interface from the drop down, then click

On the

WAN Service Configuration

page, select

Bridging

On the

WAN Service Configuration

page, enter a name if you wish to customize the

description shown for the service, then click

In the

page, review the settings for this interface. Click

Apply/Save

to accept the settings.

If you made a mistake on the configuration and want to make changes to it, select the

Remove

check box and click the

Remove

button.

In the

Wide Area Network (WAN) Service Setup

page, you will see the new WAN interface

added.

Add a PPPoE WAN Service

Add an EoA Layer 2 interface as described above (

click

WAN Service

then click

Add

On the

WAN Service Interface Configuration

page, select the DSL link associated with the

PPPOE

interface

from the drop down, then click

On the

WAN Service Configuration

page, select

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE).

On the

WAN Service Configuration

page, enter a name if you wish to customize the

description shown for the service, then click

On the

PPP Username and Password

page you will need the following information:

PPP Username

: Your account from ISP to access Internet.

Page 42 / 145

65xx-A1 Family Router Users Guide

PPP Password:

The password assigned by your ISP.

Note:

If you set the username/password to default/default, the modem will redirect the

user to a web page within the modem to change their password when they first log on.

PPPoE Service Name

: Server name of network ISP. No need to set.

Authentication Method

: Authentication mode of network ISP. Default is AUTO

Enable Fullcone NAT

: RFC 3489 defines four types of Network Address Translation

(NAT). Fullcone NAT. As with other types of NAT there is a mapping from a public IP

address to a private IP address. The external public IP address is extended with the

external port. With Fullcone NAT once the mapping is created any external host may

send packets to the private IP address by sending to the external IP address and port.

Other types of NAT have restrictions such as the sending IP address must initially have

had packets sent from the private IP address and port regardless of the external port, or

from the private IP address and the external port.

Enable NAT

must be checked for Fullcone NAT to be used.

MAC Clone

: Clicking the

Clone the PC MAC Address

button will use the MAC address

from the connected PC for the MAC address of the router.

PPP Dial Up Delay

Minutes

: The number of minutes the router will pause before

attempting PPP authentication. The default (0) means that the router will pause a random

number of seconds before attempting authentication. This setting helps prevents the PPP

server from being flooded with authentication requests after a power shutdown or a reset.

Dial on demand

: When this mode is selected, the connection that has no traffic within

assigned disconnect timeout (e.g. 1 minute) will be automatically disconnected. The

connection will be activated again when traffic arrives. This function is advantageous for

users who are charged with online time. It should be noticed that some programs

automatically link to Internet. Computer will send data to network when infected by virus.

Connection will not be disconnected under these data streams.

Inactivity Timeout

: When

Dial on demand

is selected, this input box indicates that after

how long the connection will be disconnected in the absence of traffic. If the value is 0,

connection will not be disconnected.

Manual Connect

: connect/disconnect PPPoE connection manually.

Enable manual MTU set

, allows you to set a value for the

MTU

: the Maximum

transmission unit (MTU). Higher MTU can provide for a more efficient link because each

packet will carry more data while the overhead in the packet such as header information

does not get larger with the size of the packet. So the bulk throughput on the link will go

up. Generally a large packet size can occupy the time on the link, so the higher MTU can

increase lag time and minimum latency which is not appropriate for all applications.

PPP IP extension

: Allows only one PC on the LAN. The public IP address assigned by

the remote using the PPP/IPCP protocol is actually not used on the WAN PPP interface.

Instead, it is forwarded to the PC's LAN interface through DHCP.

Only one PC on the LAN can be connected to the remote since the DHCP server within

the ADSL gateway has only a single IP address to assign to a LAN device. NAT and

firewall are disabled when this option is selected. The ADSL gateway becomes the

default gateway and DNS server to the PC through DHCP using the LAN interface IP

address. The ADSL gateway extends the IP subnet at the remote service provider to the

LAN PC. That is, the PC becomes a host belonging to the same IP subnet. The ADSL

gateway bridges the IP packets between WAN and LAN ports, unless the packet is

addressed to the gateway's LAN IP address.

Enable NAT

: To define NAT services in the

Advanced Setup | NAT

screens, NAT must

be enabled.

NAT Public Address

(available if NAT is enabled).

Automatic

means the modem will

use pubic IP addresses provided by the network;

Menu IP addresses

means that the

modem will use the addresses you specify.

Enable Firewall

: Enables the router firewall.

Use Static IPv4 Address

: Defines a static IP address (v4) which you enter in the

IPv4

Page 43 / 145

65xx-A1 Family Router Users Guide

Address

text box which is displayed when the

Use Static IPv4 Address

check box is

selected.

Enable PPP Debug Mode

: Used to debug PPPoE issues. Use only when instructed by

your ISP.

Enable KeepAlive

: Enables/disables TCP keep alive packets.

KeepAlive Timer

: When

Enable KeepAlive

is selected, this input box indicates how

often the device should send keep alive packets.

Max Fail

: Number of times the router should re-attempt PPPoE authentication after a

failure.

Bridge PPPoE Frames Between WAN and Local Ports

: By default the bridge PPPoE

frame between WAN and local ports is on.

This allows a PC behind the modem to be the

PPPoE termination point. PPPoE authentication is passed on to the PC instead of to the

router. If there are multiple PCs then, each one will have a PPPoE authentication. Note

that this option is not applicable for PPPoA.

Enable IGMP Multicast Proxy

: Configures the router for IGMP snooping so the router

can keep limit multicast traffic.
