PPPoE
The protocol PPPoE (Point-to-Point-Protocol over Ethernet) is used by many Internet provid-
ers. It allows several subscribers in a local network to access the Internet via a single Inter-
net account. The Internet provider assigns your router a password and, if necessary, a user
name.
User Name
If you have received a user name from your Internet provider, enter this name
here. Not all Internet providers require a user name. If this is the case, leave this
field empty.
Password, Confirm new password
In the
Password
field, enter the password agreed with the Internet provider and
repeat it in the
Confirm new password
field.
MTU
The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) defines the maximum length of a data
packet that can be carried over the Internet at one time. The standard value is
1492 bytes. Depending on the provider, there may be restrictions for the packet
size. You should then modify the value accordingly.

Static IP Address
A static IP address is assigned to the router. This is permanently assigned to your router as
a public IP address (page 142). The router needs the following data for the Internet access:
IP Address
,
Subnet Mask
Enter the static IP address and subnet mask given to the router by your Internet
provider.
If the base station router is connected to the Internet via another local network
(LAN), then enter the private IP address for your router in this LAN and the sub-
net mask for the LAN.
Gateway
Enter the IP address of the gateway that connects your router with the Internet.
If the connection is via another LAN, enter the private IP address for the router
or gateway that is used to connect this LAN with the Internet here.
Please note:
For the Internet connection via PPPoE, your router is set so that it is permanently connected with the
Internet. This means that you can always be reached for VoIP calls.
