For Static IP Internet Accounts (or Network Connections)
Leave the default settings on the Main Setup screen for now and click to the
Static IP
& DNS
screen in the Navigation Bar on the right. This screen has similar entries to
the TCP/IP properties of a computer. Here you will have to enter:
�
Your IP Address assigned to you. This becomes the address of the Modem
(WAN) port of the Pro.
�
The Network mask
�
Gateway Address
�
DNS Servers (at least one)
Click the
Save
button after entering all the information. The Pro will reset and should
connect immediately.

if you enter an IP
address into this screen.

correct. Confirm with your ISP as well.
