IP Address
Also called Static IP Address. Select this if your ISP has allocated
you a fixed IP Address. If this option is selected, the following data
must be entered.
• IP Address.
The IP Address allocated by the ISP.
• Network Mask (Not required for PPPoE)
This is also supplied by your ISP. It must be compatible with the
IP Address above.
• Gateway IP Address (Not required for PPPoE)
The address of the router or gateway, as supplied by your ISP.
NAT
Enable NAT
NAT (Network Address Translation) is the technology which allows
all PCs on your LAN to share the Internet IP address allocated to the
WAN port on this Router. From the Internet, all PCs appear to have
the same IP address.
For normal operation, this setting must be ENABLED.
Disable NAT Disabling NAT will disable Internet access, unless all PCs have
valid Internet IP addresses.
If you wish to use this device for Routing ONLY (and NOT for
Internet access), then NAT should be disabled.
DNS
Automatically
obtain from
Server
The DNS (Domain Name Server) address will be obtained automati-
cally from your ISP's server. Note that if using a fixed IP address,
with no login (login is set to "None"), then no Server is used, and this
option cannot be used.
Use this DNS
If this option is selected, you must enter the IP address of the DNS
(Domain Name Server) you wish to use.
Note: If the DNS is unavailable, the "Backup DNS", entered on the
Internet - Options screen, will be used.
Login
Login Method
If your ISP does not use a login method (username, password) for
Internet access, leave this at the default value "None (Direct connec-
tion)"
Otherwise, check the documentation from your ISP, select the login
method used, and enter the required data.
• PPPoE - this is the most common login method, widely used
with DSL modems. Normally, your ISP will have provided some
software to connect and login. This software is no longer re-
quired, and should not be used.
• PPTP - this is mainly used in Europe. You need to know the
PPTP Server address as well as your name and password.
• Big Pond Cable - for Australia only.
• SingTel RAS - for Singapore only.
