Wide Area Network Connection
The DSL connection is the Wide Area Network (WAN) connection. The
requirements for the WAN connection depend on your Internet Service Provider
(ISP). When you first log in you will see a default WAN connection (named WAN
Bridge) is already defined.
Local Area Network Connection
On the other side of your modem are your own Local Area Network (LAN)
connections. This is where you plug in your local computers to the modem. The
modem can be configured to automatically provide all the PCs on your network
with Internet addresses.
If you connected a PC (rather than a hub or a switch) directly to the modem, your
LAN consists of that PC.
Saving Changes
Note that the Apply button temporarily saves changes you make. To make
changes permanent, click on Tools (at the top of the page) and select System
Commands. At the System Commands page, click on Save All.
