BROADBAND ROUTER
13. Press Enter when finished.
The LAN side of your Broadband Router is now configured. But you must still
configure it to connect to the Internet. There are four different general
configurations for high-speed Internet connections. You need to know about
your Internet connection to determine which configuration to use. You found
out most of what you need to know when you recorded your IP settings in
earlier steps. Here are some guidelines to determine which configuration you
should use:
• If you connect to the Internet using a cable modem, your ISP probably
uses DHCP to issue an IP address to you. If you use a cable modem or you
know you use a dynamic IP address, please go to Section 6.1.
• If you connect to the Internet using a DSL modem, your ISP probably
requires you to manually enter your TCP/IP settings. If you have a DSL
connection or if you know you use a static IP address, please go to
Section 6.2
.
• If you connect to the Internet using a DSL modem and you use a login
name and password, your ISP uses PPPoE. If your ISP requires a login
name and a password or you know your ISP uses PPPoE, please go to
Section 6.3
.
• To configure your Broadband Router for dialup on demand, please go to
Section 6.4
.
• See Chapter 8 for a list of common configurations for popular ISPs.
