Setting your Connection Type to Modem Only (Disable
Internet Sharing)
In this mode, the Router simply acts as a bridge passing packets
across the DSL port. It requires additional software to be installed on
your computers in order to access the Internet.
1. VPI/VCI -
Enter your Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Circuit
Identifier (VCI) parameter here. (Assigned by your ISP).
DNS (Domain Name Server) Settings
A “Domain Name Server” is a server located on the Internet that
translates Universal Resource Links (URLs) like “www.belkin.com” to
IP addresses. Many ISPs do not require you to enter this information
into the Router. The “Automatic from ISP” box
(1)
should be checked
if your ISP did not give you a specific DNS address. If you are using
a static IP connection type, then you may need to enter a specific
DNS address and secondary DNS address for your connection to work
properly. If your connection type is dynamic or PPPoE, it is likely that
you do not have to enter a DNS address. Leave the “Automatic from
ISP” box checked. To enter the DNS address settings, uncheck the
“Automatic from ISP” box and enter your DNS entries in the spaces
provided. Click “Apply Changes”
(2) to save the settings.
