Appendix B Data Fields
Setup
MTU Size
When Manual is selected in the MTU field, this option is
enabled. Set this value in the 576 to 1500 range. The
default size depends on the Internet Connection Type:
•
DHCP or Static IP: 1500
•
PPPoE: 1492
•
PPTP or L2TP: 460
•
Telstra Cable: 1500
Static DNS 1, 2, 3
The Domain Name System (DNS) is how the Internet
translates domain or website names into Internet addresses
or URLs. Enter the IP address of the DNS server, which is
provided by your service provider. If you wish to use a
different DNS server, enter its IP address in one of these
fields. You can enter up to three DNS server IP addresses
here. The WRP500 will use these for quicker access to
functioning DNS servers. By default, the WRP500 uses
192.168.15.1 for DNS.
