Installation and Configuration

2. Click Yes on the Connection Method screen. Choose the appropriate

Internet Connection Method:

> Dynamic Internet IP: This is the default setting for the

Connection Point CP-2E. If your internet service provider (ISP)
automatically assigns you a public IP address (common among
cable providers) or if you are unsure of the other options, select this
option.

> Static Internet IP: If your ISP provided you with a static IP

address, select this option.

> PPPoE: The point-to-point over Ethernet (PPPoE) connection is

the most likely choice for DSL service. A PPPoE user name and
password must be provided to you by your ISP.

Dynamic Internet IP

This setting configures your Connection Point CP-2E to automatically
obtain an IP address from your ISP. This is the most common setting, and
should be used unless your ISP provided specific instructions for use of a
static IP address or point-to-point protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE).
