button under

WAN Setup

configuration menu.

pull-down menu. This action will change the menu so it offers different

settings for configuration.

Mask

(e.g. 255.255.255.0),

ARP Server

9. Click the

does not appear to

after a few minutes, go back to the Connection 1 Setup menu, check the

settings and make sure they are correct.

Create a New Connection

An alternative method of changing the connection type used by the Router is to create a new connection.
Creating a new connection will not change the Connection 1 settings, it will make a new set of coneciton
configuration settings. The new set created will be labeled

Connection 2

, additional connections created will be

likewise labeled Connection 3, Connection 4 and so on. Use the method described here to create up to 8 different
connection configuration sets. At any time you may reconfigure the settings for any previously created
connection by clicking on the menu button for the connection displayed under the

WAN Setup

heading.

Note

Use the New Connection procedure to create new connection used for accounts that
supports multiple virtual connections. For more information on creating and maintaining
virtual connection, see Multiple Virtual Connections in the following chapter on
Advanced Router Management.
