2.3.1. Setup
2.3.1.1. Basic Configuration
Setup Assistant
The setup assistant provides a step-by-step interface for basic router
configuration. This configures most common settings automatically.
WAN Setup
Here you’ll find the most important settings to configure your
internet access and WAN port. DHCP is enabled by default, but you can
also use PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP, static IP, or HeartBeat Signal. If you
don’t use a password to log in to your ISP, you may need to enter
“0000” for the password. Also, for some ISPs you should not enter the
service name, as it will prevent establishing the connection. If you
experience connection problems, then leave the service name empty.
WAN Connection Type Description
Disabled The WAN port is disabled.
Static IP A static IP address will be used – enter the
IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and server
manually.
Automatic
Configuration - DHCP The router obtains its WAN-side IP address
from a DHCP server.
PPPoE Configure as PPPoE-client. For VDSL, check
the “VDSL-Tagging“ box.
PPTP Establishes connection via PPTP.
L2TP Establishes connection via L2TP.
HeartBeat Signal If you use a HeartBeat connection, consult
your ISP for setup information. HeartBeat
Signal is used only in Australia.
3G/UMTS Configures Internet Access via 3G/UMTS.
Enable USB in the “Services” section and
attach a 3g/UMTS USB stick to the router.
This setting is available in AirStations sold
in the European region only.
Network Setup
Network Setup configures the router’s basic settings to match the
local network. By default these settings are valid for all network
ports except the WAN because they are all attached to the default
bridge. If ports are disassociated from the bridge they will have
different settings.
