3.3 WAN CONFIGURATION 

To configure the Router’s basic Internet and LAN configuration settings without running the Setup Wizard, click 

on the link for the 

WAN

 directory on the left-hand side of the main window.  

This window is also used to configure the Router for multiple virtual connections (Multiple PVCs). Please see 

the section entitled Multiple PVCs later in this manual for further information. 

 

Opening WAN window 

Use the 

Virtual Circuit

 drop-down menu to display up to eight configurable profiles for the Internet interface. If 

you do not intend to use more than a single virtual connection (most users), you can use the default setting (

PVC-0

). If 

you are using multiple connections, use the 

Virtual Circuit

 drop-down menu to access the 

WAN

 window for each 

desired connection. To change the settings for any profile in the list, use the 

Virtual Circuit

 drop-down menu to display 

individual profiles.
