12.7.3 Configuring Static IP on Your PC


If you have static IP service (your Internet service provider (ISP) supplies static IP addresses), you will need to
perform the following steps to obtain Internet access:

1. Configure your PC settings to obtain an IP address automatically. (Refer to your Windows Help screen for

instructions.)


2. Access the Router by following the instructions in section 7 (Accessing the Dual Connect NAT Router) and

section 8 (Configuring the Router for Internet Connection).


3. View the settings at the VPI/VCI screen (section 8). The values should read 0 (for VPI) and 35 (for VCI). If you

type any other value in the fields and click on next, you will lose your DSL connection. The connection can’t be
restored until the VPI/VCI is set to 0/35.


4. Select

VC Configuration from the Configuration menu.


5. Click on the edit button in the row that displays the VPI/VCI equal to 0/35. The VC 1 Configuration screen

will be displayed.


6. Disable DHCP Client (if enabled) by clicking on the DHCP Client Disable button located in VC –1 Bridge

Settings. Note: You must be in Routed Bridge mode (using Bridge Protocol) to access this function.


7. Replace the addresses in the fields labeled IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, DNS Primary, and DNS

Secondary with the addresses you obtained from your Internet service provider.


8. Click on the set VC button.

9. Click

on

OK in the VC Configuration pop-up screen.


10. Click on OK in the reset modem pop-up screen.

After you complete the preceding steps, the Router will be reconfigured and your new settings will take effect. You
must wait for the connection status to read UP (up to 5 minutes) to continue your Router configuration.
