3.1.5 IP Address
This Internet Connection Wizard screen follows the Authentication Settings
screen and allows you to configure the method with which your WiMAX Device
acquires its IP address. The settings here correspond to the SETUP > Set IP
Address screen (
Section 5.2 on page 68 ).
A fixed (static) IP address is one that your ISP gives you. Your WiMAX Device uses
that IP address every time you connect to the Internet. On the other hand, an
automatic (dynamic) IP address is variable in that the ISP assigns you a different
one each time you connect to the Internet.

The following table describes the labels in this screen.
