Connecting the Gateway to the Internet

Note:

You will no longer need to launch the ISP’s login program on your PC in order to access

the Internet. When you start an Internet application, your gateway will automatically log you
in.

Domain Name Server (DNS) Address: If you know that your ISP does not automatically
transmit DNS addresses to the gateway during login, select “Use these DNS servers” and enter
the IP address of your ISP’s Primary DNS Server. If a Secondary DNS Server address is
available, enter it also.

If you enter an address here, after you finish configuring the gateway, reboot your PCs so
that the settings take effect.

Click on Apply to save your settings.
