Step 1 - Gathering  Information

Depending on the type of broadband internet service you are subscribed to, 

different types of information may be needed to complete the setup.  Acquiring 

this information in advance will make the setup of your AirStation router simple 

and quick.  A quick call to your service provider’s customer or technical support 

number will provide you with the needed information if you are unsure.  If you 

are connecting to the internet via DSL service, then PPPoE information will most 

likely be required from your ISP.

Recording the AirStation’s LAN MAC Address

The LAN MAC address of the AirStation is the default ESS-ID (SSID) and is 

found on the bottom of the AirStation body as shown in the illustration above.

MAC Addresses are 12-digit codes comprised of numbers and letters. When 

inputting MAC Addresses for custom configurations, a semi-colon (:) is used to 

separate every two digits. ex: 

00:07:40:00:00:00
