To configure a Static IP connection for the WAN, follow these steps:
1.
Click the
Static IP Address
radio button in the WAN Settings section in the middle of the
window.
2.
The settings under ATM VC Setting at the top of the window should not be changed unless you have been
instructed to change them. However, if you are instructed to change the
VPI
or
VCI
values, type in the values
assigned for your account. Leave the
Virtual Circuit
setting at the default (
Enabled
) value for now.
3.
Under the Static IP heading, choose the
Connection Type
from the pull-down menu. This defines both the
connection type and encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The available options are
Routed IP
LLC
and
Routed IP VC-Mux.
If you have not been provided specific information for the
Connection Type
,
leave the default setting.
4.
Change the
IP Address
,
Subnet Mask
,
Gateway Address
and (if available)
Secondary DNS
Address
as
instructed by your ISP. These are the global IP settings for the WAN interface. This is the “visible” IP address
of your account. Your ISP should have provided these IP settings to you.
5.
Leave the
MTU
value at the default setting (default =
1400
) unless you have specific reasons to change this
(see table below).
6.
Most users will not need to change ATM settings. If this is the first time you are setting up the ADSL
connection it is recommended that you leave the
Service Category
settings at the default values until you have
established the connection. See the table on page 23 for a description of the parameters available for ATM
traffic shaping.

When you are satisfied that all the WAN settings are configured correctly, click on the
Apply
button.

Tools
directory tab and then click
System
. Next click the
Save
and Reboot
button in the lower half of the
System Settings
window.
9.
Click
OK
when the following “Save and restart?” dialog box opens.
10.
The Modem will save the new settings and restart. Upon restarting the Modem will automatically establish the
WAN connection.
