2.11.1.1. Router with a PPPoE-Based DSL/Cable Con-
nection
Fig. 56. TCP/IP settings for Router with a PPPoE-Based DSL/Cable Connection mode.
If the IWE3200-H was set to be in Router with a PPPoE-Based DSL/Cable Connection mode, two
IP addresses are needed—one for the Ethernet LAN interface and the other for the WAN interface.
The LAN IP address must be set manually to a private IP address, say 192.168.0.xxx. The default
LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1 and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. In most cases, these de-
fault settings need no change.
As for the WAN IP address, it is obtained automatically by PPPoE from the ISP. Consult your ISP for
the correct User name, Password, and Service name settings.
The Trigger mode setting specifies the way a PPPoE connection is established. Your PPPoE connec-
tion can be established and torn down manually (Manual) by clicking the Connect and Disconnect
buttons on the Start page, respectively. Or you can choose to let the device automatically (Auto) es-
tablish a PPPoE connection at bootup time. In Auto mode, if the connection is disrupted, the device
will try to re-establish the broken connection automatically.
Custom MAC Address of WAN Interface enables you to change the MAC address of the Ethernet
WAN interface. Therefore, if the ISP-provided DSL or cable modem works only with the
ISP-provided Ethernet card for a computer, the WAN interface of the Router can mimic the
ISP-provided Ethernet card by changing its MAC address to the Ethernet card’s MAC address.
