U.S. Robotics SureConnect ADSL Ethernet/USB Router User Guide
WAN Setup
Use this menu option to configure an ISP connection. ADSL employs Asynchronous
Transfer Mode (ATM) protocol to send data to the Internet Service Providers. An ATM
circuit uses Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC) as pathway to identify and route modem data.
The U.S. Robotics Ethernet/USB Router supports multiple PVC connections for multiple
ISPs.
To configure a PVC…
1. Delete any connection that you don’t need.
2. Select the PVC in the Current ATM PVC List.
3. Click Delete.
4. Click the connection type recommended by your ISP. Choose a mode: RFC1483
Bridged, RFC1483 Routed, PPPoE, PPPoA or MER.
• If you chose RFC1483 Bridged mode, follow these steps…
1. Enter VPI / VCI values.
2. Click the radio button for the desired encapsulation mode: LLC/SNAP or VC
Multiplexing.
3. Network Settings: Be sure that options Enable NAPT and Enable DHCP are not
selected.
4. Click Add.
• If you chose RFC1483 Routed mode, follow these steps…
1. Enter the WAN IP Address for your ISP.
