The
Intellinet
Wireless
CPE
Access
Points
not
only
provides
wireless
functionality,
but
it
also
allows
the
clients
to
connect
to
and
communicate
with
the
local
wired
network.
This
section
explains
the
various
network
configuration
options
for
the
different
operation
modes.
NETWORK
SETTINGS
IN
ROUTER
MODE
In
router
mode,
the
WAN
port
of
the
Intellinet
CPE
Access
Point
must
be
connected
to
a
cable
or
DSL
modem
with
the
WAN
port.
In
addition,
you
must
set
up
the
WAN
connection
in
the
device
settings.
First,
you
must
select
the
WAN
Type
appropriate
for
your
Internet
connection.
Available
are
PPPoE
(for
DSL),
DHCP
(for
cable
‐
type
Internet)
or
Static
(for
static
IP
setups).
PPPoE
:
You
must
provide
the
username
and
password
for
the
DSL
connection.
Additional
parameters
such
as
the
MTU
size,
LCP,
ISP
name
and
the
MAC
address
may
also
be
required,
but
that
depends
on
your
Internet
service
provider.
An
MTU
size
of
1500
is
considered
standard,
but
smaller
MTU
values
(as
low
as
1400)
can
sometimes
be
required.
Again,
when
in
doubt,
check
with
your
Internet
service
provider.
DHCP
:
The
most
common
and
easiest
to
set
up
method.
It
sometimes
requires
the
MAC
address
to
match
the
records
of
the
Internet
service
provider,
in
which
case
you
can
use
the
MAC
Address
Clone
function.
Static
:
Should
your
Internet
connection
require
static
IP
settings,
then
you
have
to
enter
them
on
this
screen.
IP
address,
subnet
mask
and
DNS1
and
mandatory
entries.
DNS2
is
recommended
as
a
backup,
and
the
MAC
Address
Clone
function
can
be
used
if
the
Internet
service
requires
a
specific
MAC
address
to
be
used.
Here
you
define
the
IP
address
of
the
Access
Point
in
the
local
network.
The
default
value
is
192.168.2.1
and
gives
you
access
to
the
web
UI
via
http://192.168.2.1.
You
can
make
changes
to
this
IP
address,
e.g.,
to
make
the
Intellinet
access
point
part
of
the
local
network,
which
may
be
running
on
a
different
subnet.
