7.3 Ethernet Manager
The Ethernet Manager provides
controls for your router‘s Ethernet
WAN ports. By default, only one
port is set as a WAN port, but the
other port can be reconfigured as
a WAN port in Network Settings → Local Networks.
While default settings for each WAN Ethernet port will be sufficient in most circumstances, you have the ability to control:
Connect Method: DHCP (Automatic), Static
(Manual), or PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol
over Ethernet).
MAC Address: You have the ability to change
the MAC address, but typically this is
unnecessary. You can match this address with
your device‘s address by clicking: ―Clone Your
PC’s MAC Address‖.
7.3.1 Connect Method
Your router‘s Ethernet ports are automatically configured for DHCP connection. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) automatically assigns dynamic IP addresses to devices in your networks. This is preferable in most
circumstances.
If you want to use a Static (Manual) or PPPoE connection instead, you will need to fill out additional information.
