2-3-6 Setup Procedure for L2TP xDSL 
 

L2TP is another popular connection method for xDSL and other 
Internet connection types, and all required setting items are the 
same with PPTP connection. 
 
Like PPTP, there are two kinds of required settings. First, WAN 
Interface Settings: 
 

 

 
Select how you obtain an IP address from your service provider. 
You can choose “Obtain an IP address automatically” (equal to 
DHCP — refer to “Cable Modem” above), or “Use the following IP 
address” (i.e., a static IP address).   
WAN interface settings must be correctly set; otherwise, the 
Internet connection will fail even if the PPTP settings are correct. 
Contact your Internet service provider if you don’t know how you 
should fill in these fields.
