Circuit Identifier
(VCI) parameter here. These identifiers are assigned by your ISP.

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.
