If for some reason you do not get an IP address and you know that your Internet provider uses DHCP, try
resetting your modem. Remove the power adapter from the modem as well as the backup battery (if available).
Wait about 30 seconds and then power the modem back on. You can run through the Basic Setup Wizard again
to see if that fixes your Internet connection issues.
PPPoE connections normally requires login information. If you do not know the settings for your PPPoE
connection, please contact your Internet provider.
PPTP and L2TP connections requires login information as well as IP address settings. If you do not know the
settings for your PPTP / L2TP connection, please contact your Internet provider.

These settings apply to the Local Network

Connection Network. If you are not familiar with these
settings, please refer to a network administrator to avoid
putting your network at risk.
Enable uPnP: Universal Plug and Play is a network feature
that allows uPnP enabled devices to “just work” with each
other when connected to the same network. UPnP can work
across different network media, such as an Ethernet
connection or wireless connection. With UPnP enabled, network devices may change security settings within
the Router’s firewall to allow access over the Internet. By default, UPnP is disabled to avoid exposing your
network to security issues.
Enable IGMP Proxy: Internet Group Management Protocol is a communication protocol used by hosts and
routers on the network to establish multicast group memberships. IGMP Proxy is typically used to implement
multicast routing and commonly used when advanced protocols such as PIM is not suitable.
Enable Ping Access on WAN: Allows users to ping the WAN interface IP address from the Internet.
Enable Web Server Access on WAN (Remote Management): Allows access to the Web Menu over the Internet.
Enable IPsec pass through on VPN connection: Allows the IP security protocol suite to pass through on a VPN
connection.
Network Settings: IPv6 Advanced Settings:
Enable IPv6 pass through on VPN connection: Allows the IPv6 protocol suite to pass through on a VPN
connection.
Enable Tunnel 6to4: Enabling this feature, enables encapsulation of IPv6 packets into IPv4 for transport across
an IPv4 network. It allows for automatic IPv6-to-IPv4 address translation, and treats the underlying IPv4
network as one big non-broadcast multi-access (NBMA) network, rather than a collection of independent
point-to-point links.
