3 Configuration
3.1 Determine your connection settings
Before you configure the router, you need to know the connection information
supplied by your ADSL service provider.
3.2 Connecting the ADSL Router to your network
Unlike a simple hub or switch, the setup of the ADSL Router consists of more than
simply plugging everything together. Because the Router acts as a DHCP server, you
will have to set some values within the Router, and also configure your networked
PCs to accept the IP Addresses the Router chooses to assign them.
Generally there are several different operating modes for your applications. And you
can know which mode is necessary for your system from ISP. These modes are router,
bridge, PPPoE+NAT, and PPPoA+NAT.
