WAN is short for Wide Area Network. The WAN settings can be referred to as the
Public settings. All IP information in the WAN settings are public IP addresses which
are accessible on the Internet. The WAN settings consist of four options: Dynamic IP
Address, Static IP Address, PPPoE, and Others. Select the appropriate option and fill
in the information needed to connect to your ISP.
Choose Dynamic IP Address to obtain IP address information automatically from your
ISP. Select this option if your ISP does not give you any IP numbers to use. This option
is commonly used for Cable modem services. Host Name: The Host Name field is
optional but may be required by some ISPs. The host name is the device name of the
Broadband Router.
