WAN Interface
WAN (Wide Area Network) is a network connection connecting one or more LANs
together over some distance. For example, the means of connecting two office
buildings separated by several kilometers would be referred to as a WAN connection.
The size of a WAN and the number of distinct LANs connected to a WAN is not limited
by any definition. Therefore, the Internet may be called a WAN.
WAN Settings are settings that are used to connect to your ISP (Internet Service
Provider). The WAN settings are provided to you by your ISP and often times
referred to as "public settings". Please select the appropriate option for your specific
ISP.
For most users, Internet access is the primary application. SATSPEEDBOX III R7920
supports the WAN interface for internet access and remote access. The following
sections will explain more details of WAN Port Internet access and broadband access
setup. When you click “Internet Setting”, the following setup page will be shown.
Three methods are available for Internet Access.
Static IP
If you are a leased line user with a fixed IP address, enter in the IP address, subnet
mask, gateway address, and DNS (domain name server) addresses provided to you
by your ISP. Each IP address entered in the fields must be in the appropriate IP
form, which are four IP octets separated by a dot (x.x.x.x). The Router will not
accept the IP address using other format.
Example: 168.95.1.1
