Internet Setup
The Internet Setup section configures the router to your Internet connection.
Most of this information can be obtained through your Internet Service
Provider (ISP).
Internet Connection Type
Select the type of Internet connection your ISP provides from the drop-down
menu. The available types are:
• Automatic Configuration - DHCP
• Static IP
• PPPoE
• PPTP
• L2TP
• Telstra Cable
Automatic Configuration - DHCP
The default Internet Connection Type is Automatic Configuration - DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). Keep the default only if your ISP
supports DHCP or if you connect using a dynamic IP address. (This option
usually applies to cable connections.)
Static IP
If you are required to use a fixed IP address to connect to the Internet, select
Static IP.
PPPoE
If you have a DSL connection, check whether your ISP uses Point-to-Point
Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE). If so, select PPPoE.
