If you have a dynamic IP address from your ISP to access the Internet,
please select the DHCP Client radio button. Once the external IP address is
obtained via the DHCP protocol, there is no need to give an external IP
address, external gateway address or netmask. The DHCP server will
dynamically assign these fields. In general, you should choose this option if
you are connecting the SOHO Server to a cable modem. Note: Cable
modem users MUST disconnect the cable modem from the wall outlet for at
least 2 minutes before turning it on again. Some cable modem connections
need you to provide specific hardware address. For the case, you should fill
your hardware address that you get from your ISP provider in Hardware
Address field to override the original hardware address. However, it does not
update the original hardware address stored in EEPROM. If you would not
like to override the hardware address, you should set each field of the
Hardware Address to zero “00”.
