Broadband
6.1 Overview
This chapter describes how to configure WAN settings from the Broadband screen. Use this screen
to configure your VDSL Router for Internet access.
If the DSLAM of your ISP supports DSL bonding, you can connect the two DSL ports on the VDSL
Router to two separate telephone jacks and enable the bonding feature in the DSL screen. The
bonding feature provides increased throughput at longer distances.
A WAN (Wide Area Network) connection is an outside connection to another network or the
Internet. It connects your private networks (such as a LAN (Local Area Network) and other
networks, so that a computer in one location can communicate with computers in other locations.

6.1.1 What You Need to Know
Encapsulation Method
Encapsulation is used to include data from an upper layer protocol into a lower layer protocol. To set
up a WAN connection to the Internet, you need to use the same encapsulation method used by your
ISP (Internet Service Provider). If your ISP offers a dial-up Internet connection using PPPoE (PPP
over Ethernet) or PPPoA, they should also provide a username and password (and service name)
for user authentication.
