Before the 4-port Wireless N Gateway will pass any data between the LAN interface(s) and the WAN
interface, the WAN side of the modem must be configured. Depending upon your ADSL service provider or
your ISP, you will need some (or all) of the information outlined below before you can properly configure the
WAN:
Your ADSL account Username and Password
Your ADSL line VPI and VCI setting
Your ADSL encapsulation type or multiplexing (Either LLC or VC. Check your ISP for detail)
Your ADSL Training Mode or Handshaking Mode (default is MMODE)
For
PPPoA
or
PPPoE
users, you also need these values from your ISP:
Your account Username
Your account Password
For
RFC 1483
users, you may need these values from your ISP:
Your ADSL fixed Internet IP address
Your Subnet Mask
Your Default Gateway address
Your primary DNS IP address
Since multiple users can use the 4-port Wireless N Gateway, the 4-port Wireless N Gateway can
simultaneously support multiple connection types; hence, you must set up different profiles for each
connection. The 4-port Wireless N Gateway supports the following protocols:
PPPoE
PPPoA
1483 Bridged
1483 MER
1483 Routed
The
WAN
setup configuration page enable the user to create, save, delete and select connection
profiles as required. (In many cases, only one connection profile will be required and only one connection
profile will be used at one time).
