Configuring the ADSL Connection
ADSL connections can be configured in a variety of ways depending on the ISP/WAN configura-
tion, and the requirements of your home or office LAN. The NB5 supports the following ADSL
connection types:
PPPoE [RFC2516]
PPPoA [RFC2364]
DHCP
Static
Bridged [RFC1483]
CLIP [RFC1577]
Configuring the NB5 to match these connection types may require entry of some or all of the
following values:
ISP Account Username and Password
VPI/VCI [Defaults are 8/35, recommended]
Encapsulation type/multiplexing [either LLC or VC, check with ISP]
DSL Training Mode [default = MMODE, recommended]
Network Settings for Bridged Mode operation:
For Bridged Mode connections [RFC1483], the ISP will need to provide the following information:
DSL Fixed Internet IP address
Subnet Mask
Default Gateway IP Address
Primary DNS IP address.
The next sections will describe in detail how to set up each of these connection types and save them
as Connection Profiles.
