Wide Area Network (WAN) Setup
Before the router will pass any data between the LAN and WAN interfaces, the WAN side
of the iConnectAccess621 must be configured. Depending on your DSL service provider
or ISP, you will need some (or all) of the information outlined below before you can
properly configure the WAN. The following table lists all DSL requirements:

VPI and VCI
The VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) and the VCI (Virtual
Channel Identifier) define the virtual path settings for the
ADSL connection between you and your ISP. By default,
these settings are pre-configured for 8/35 in your
iConnectAccess621. If you wish to change them, please
ensure you obtain the correct VPI/VCI setting details form
your ISP.
Encapsulation and Multiplexing
For PPPoA, Static, Bridge, DHCP and CLIP authentication
types, you may have to define the encapsulation
parameters. The iConnectAccess621 has two options for
encapsulation: LLC encapsulation and VCMux. The
default encapsulation type for the iConnectAccess621 is
LLC. If you wish to change these settings, please ensure
you obtain the correct encapsulation setting details form
your ISP.

The default is MMODE, and this enables your
iConnectAccess621 to tune into the ADSL services in
Australia automatically. Do not change this parameter.
