ISP Multiplexing Method and Virtual Circuit Number: The default settings of your DG834
ADSL Firewall Router will work fine for most ISPs. However, some ISPs use a specific
Multiplexing Method or a Virtual Circuit Number for either the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) or
Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI). If your ISP provided you with a specific Multiplexing Method or
VPI/VCI number, then fill in the following:

Multiplexing Method, circle one: LLC-based or VC-based
VPI: ________ A number between 0 and 255.
VCI: ___________ A number between 1 and 65535.

ISP Login Name: The login name and password are case sensitive and must be entered exactly as
given by your ISP. Some ISPs use your full e-mail address as the login name. The Service Name is
not required by all ISPs. If you use a login name and password, then fill in the following:

Login Name: ______________________________ Password: ____________________________

Service Name: _____________________________

Fixed or Static IP Address: If you have a static IP address, record the following information. For
example, 169.254.141.148 could be a valid IP address.

Fixed or Static Internet IP Address: ______.______.______.______
Router IP Address: ______.______.______.______
Subnet Mask: ______.______.______.______

ISP DNS Server Addresses: If you were given DNS server addresses, fill in the following:

Primary DNS Server IP Address: ______.______.______.______

Secondary DNS Server IP Address: ______.______.______.______

Host and Domain Names: Some ISPs use a specific host or domain name like CCA7324-A or
home. If you did not get host or domain names, use the following examples as a guide:

•

If your main e-mail account with your ISP is [email protected], then use aaa as your host name.
Your ISP might call this your account, user, host, computer, or system name.

•

If your ISP’s mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.com, then use xxx.yyy.com as the domain name.

ISP Host Name: _________________________ ISP Domain Name: _______________________
