In order for your Wireless AP Router to access the Internet, its Internet connection

settings have to be configured to suit the protocol that your broadband modem

uses to connect to the Internet.
If you connect to the Internet using a DSL Modem, and the use of your account

requires entering a login name and password, your ISP uses PPPoE. See “PPPoE

connection” on page 4-9.
If you connect to the Internet using a cable modem, your ISP probably uses DHCP.

See “DHCP connection” on page 4-10.
If you connect to the Internet using a DSL Modem, and the use of your account

requires you to manually enter your IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and

DNS servers, see "Fixed IP connection (using static IP address)" on page 4-11.

These Internet

connection

settings depend on

your subscription

with your Internet

Service Provider

(ISP). If you are

not sure of your

configuration,

check with your

ISP.
