8.12 – NETWORK
Use the Network Setup menu to configure network and DNS settings.
NOTE
Your router must support UPnP functionality.
To configure network settings:
1.
Under TYPE, select DHCP, PPPoE or STATIC (if unsure, choose DHCP as this is the most common).
For PPPoE, go to step 2
For STATIC, go to step 3
For DHCP, go to step 5
TIP
DHCP allows you to quickly connect to your network by automatically obtaining an IP address from the
router. After initial setup, we recommend you disable DHCP and manually set the IP address to static
configuration. This ensures that port forwarding will not change in the event of power failure or resetting
of your network.
2.
If you selected PPPoE in step 1, enter your PPPoE user name and password in the respective fields using the
virtual keyboard.
3.
If you selected STATIC in step 1, enter a valid IP address, subnet mask, and gateway in the respective fields
using the virtual keyboard.
4.
If necessary, change the Media and Web ports.
5.
Click APPLY to save changes. Click CLOSE in the confirmation window.
6.
Click EXIT on all other open configuration windows. The system will restart automatically.
