Configuration using the Setup Wizard

The Web Configuration Manager contains a Setup Wizard that can automatically determine your
network connection type. If the Setup Wizard does not launch automatically, click on the Setup
Wizard heading in the upper left of the opening screen, shown in

Figure 4-2

.

When the Wizard launches, allow the gateway to automatically determine your connection type by
selecting Yes in the menu below and clicking Next:

The Setup Wizard will now check for a connection on the Internet port. If the Setup Wizard
determines that there is no connection to the Internet port, you will be prompted to check the
physical ADSL connection. When the connection is properly made, the gateway’s Internet
LED should be on.

Next, the Setup Wizard will attempt to determine the Multiplexing Method and VPI/VCI used
on your line. Additionally, it will attempt to determine which of the following connection
types your Internet service account uses:

Dynamic IP assignment

Fixed IP address assignment

A login protocol such as PPPoE
