Internet/WAN: Displays the WAN connection Options
w
Connection Type: Select the desired WAN Connection Type. When set to
PPPOE, enter a Username and Password that the ISP provides to authenticate the
Router allowing it to connect. The Router will pull all connection information
automatically from the ISP’s Modem once it is successfully authenticated.
DHCP is the default setting.
w
Username: Allows you to enter the PPPOE Username specified by the ISP.
w
Password: Allows you to enter the PPPOE Password specified by the ISP.
w
Max Failed Pings: Allows you to specify the Maximum number of Failed Pings to
the PPPOE Server before the Router attempts to re-authenticate to the PPPOE
Sever. We recommend the default value of 3 attempts unless the ISP recommends
a different value.
w
Ping Interval: Allows you to specify the number of seconds to wait between Ping
attempts to the PPPOE Server. We recommend the default value of 5 seconds in
order to preserve WAN resources.
w
Primary DNS: Allows you to select the checkbox and manually configure a Primary
DNS Server IP Address. “DNS Assigned By ISP” is the default setting.
w
Secondary DNS: Allows you to select the checkbox and manually configure a
Secondary DNS Server IP Address. “DNS Assigned By ISP” is the default setting.
w
Custom MAC Address: Allows you to set a Custom MAC Address which allows
the Router to appear as a Computer to the ISP Modem. Some Modems will cache
the MAC Address of the first device used to setup Internet Service and cannot be
reset by the user. If this occurs you can clone that setup Device’s MAC Address to
allow the XWR-600 to connect to the Modem.
w
Custom MTU: Allows you to configure a Custom MTU setting. MTU (or Maximum
Transmission Unit), is the maximum packet size allowed on the network. Some ISPs
(usually DSL or Fiber) will require this value to be set if the Modem is in
Bridge mode.

3.1.3 Connection Type Static IP

and Secondary DNS provided by the ISP to be entered manually. This type will never
have a Dynamic IP Address change on the connection and is typically used in Business
or Remote Access implementations.
