Connection to ISP
This option, shown in
Figure 30
, allows you to change the
method your Router uses to connect to your ISP. You should only
need to change these settings if:
■
you change your Internet connection password (PPPoE only),
or
■
your ISP informs you of a change in their settings or you
change ISPs.

Connection to ISP Screen
Select the addressing method that your ISP uses to allocate your
Router’s Internet IP address. Choose from the options in the
IP
Allocation Mode
drop-down box and the screen will refresh with
options relevant to that choice.
■
If you select
Static IP address (to be specified manually)
see
“Configuring a Static IP Address”
on
page 37
.
■
If you select
Dynamic IP address (automatically allocated)
see
“Configuring a Dynamic IP Address”
on
page 38
.
■
If you select
PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet)
see
“Configuring a
PPPoE connection”
on
page 39
.
■
If you select
PPTP (used by some providers, mostly in Europe)
see
“Configuring a PPTP connection”
on
page 40
.
If you are using One to One NAT your method of connection will
already be fixed to Static. To change to another method of
address allocation you must first turn off One to One NAT. See
“Setting up NAT”
on
page 44
.
Before you can configure the Router, you need to know the IP
information allocation method used by your ISP. There are four
different ways that ISPs can allocate IP information, as described
below.
When you install the Router, you will not need to use the PPPoE
software on your PC.
When you install the Router, you will not need to use the dialup
VPN on your PC anymore.
The Router will automatically ‘dial on demand’ PPPoE or PPTP
and obtain date/time via NTP.
