Physical Address

  (00-50-FC-FE-02-DB) 

 

 

Glossary 

 

Default Gateway (Router): 

Every non-router IP device needs to configure a default gateway’s IP address. When the 

device sends out an IP packet, if the destination is not on the same network, the device has to send the packet to its 
default gateway, which will then send it out towards the destination. 

 
DHCP: 

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol automatically gives every computer on your home network 

an IP address.

 

 

DNS Server IP Address: 

DNS stands for Domain Name System, which allows Internet servers to have a domain name 

(such as www.Broadbandrouter.com) and one or more IP addresses (such as 192.34.45.8). A DNS server keeps a 
database of Internet servers and their respective domain names and IP addresses, so that when a domain name is 
requested (as in typing "Broadbandrouter.com" into your Internet browser), the user is sent to the proper IP address. The 
DNS server IP address used by the computers on your home network is the location of the DNS server your ISP has 
assigned to you. 

 

 
DSL Modem: 

DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. A DSL modem uses your existing phone lines to transmit data at 

high speeds.
