Chapter 6 Advanced Setup

Note: Some

DSL

providers use

PPP

o

E/PPPoA

to establish com-

munication with an end user. Other types of broadband Internet
connections (such as fixed point wireless) may use either

DHCP

or Static

IP

address. If unsure about which connection

is present, check with the Internet Service Provider (

ISP)

before

continuing.

After selecting a connection type, click Next to continue configuring the connection.

Transparent Bridging

Select this option to use the Gateway as a transparent bridge. This option should
only be used if the Gateway is being used as a Modem to connect one computer to
the Internet via a DSL connection. When the Gateway is being used as a transpar-
ent bridge, it does not provide any firewall security.
