5.1.3 Connecting the FSG WAN port to a modem

To use the internet through your FSG, you will need to setup the FSG with the configu-
ration information provided by your ISP. This information is described in detail in the
"Getting on the internet" section of the "Before you begin" chapter.

To configure your FSG with this information, you should:

Open the Web interface window of your FSG.

Log on under 'admin' and administrator password.

Click 'Connections' on the left-hand side of the window.

Click 'WAN' on the left-hand side.

If the IP data is prepared dynamically, check to make sure that 'Run DHCP Client' is
enabled. The configuration is complete.

If the IP data is not prepared dynamically, click the 'Run DSL Client' box.

Enter the login data provided by your ISP.

Click 'Apply'.

Save your settings.

To test the connection, start the Internet browser and see if you can access your
Internet Favorites or check the Info window under WAN on the FSG configuration
website to see whether your ISP has assigned you an IP address.

Note: It may take some time to establish the DSL connection to the ISP.
