DG834GUv5 Wireless Router with Built-in DSL Modem User Manual

5-2

Advanced Configuration

v1.0, May 2009

2.

From the main menu, select WAN Setup to display the WAN Setup screen:

3.

Make the changes that you want, and then click 

Apply

 to save the settings.

The WAN Setup fields are described in the following table:

Figure 5-1

Table 5-1.  WAN Setup Settings

Setting

Description

Connect Automatically, as 
Required

Usually, this check box is selected, so that an Internet connection is 
made automatically, whenever Internet-bound traffic is detected. If this 
causes high connection costs, you can disable this setting. 
• If disabled, you must connect manually, using the screen accessed 

from the 

Connection Status

 button on the Router Status screen.

• If you have an “Always on” connection, this setting has no effect.

Enable PPPOE-RELAY

If this check box is selected, this feature allows a PPPoE client on a 
local PC to a remote PPPoE server with the gateway acting as a relay 
agent.

Disable Port Scan and DOS 
Protection

This check box is usually clear so that the firewall protects your LAN 
against port scans and denial of service (DOS) attacks. This check box 
should be selected only in special circumstances.

Default DMZ Server

This feature is sometimes helpful when you are using some online 
games and videoconferencing. Be careful when using this feature 
because it makes the firewall security less effective. See 

“Setting Up a 

Default DMZ Server” on page 5-3
