SMC Networks SMCWHSG44-G manual Router with a DHCP-Based DSL/Cable Connection

Page 55

If the SMCWHSG44-G was set to be in Router with a PPPoE-Based DSL/Cable Connection mode, two IP addresses are needed: one for the Ethernet LAN interface and the other for the WAN interface. The LAN IP address must be set manually to a private IP address, say 192.168.0.xxx. The default LAN IP address is 192.168.2.1 and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. In most cases, these default settings need no change.

As for the WAN IP address, it is obtained automatically by PPPoE from the ISP. Consult your ISP for the correct User name, Password, and Service name settings.

The Trigger mode setting specifies the way a PPPoE connection is established. Your PPPoE connection can be established and disconnected manually (Manual) by clicking the Connect and Disconnect buttons on the Start page, respectively. Or you can choose to let the device automatically (Auto) establish a PPPoE connection at boot-up time. In Auto mode, if the connec- tion is disrupted, the device will try to re-establish the broken

connection automatically.

Custom MAC Address of WAN Interface enables you to change the MAC address of the Ethernet WAN interface. Therefore, if the ISP-provided DSL or cable modem works only with the ISP-provided Ethernet card for a computer, the WAN interface of the Router can mimic the ISP-provided Ethernet card by changing its MAC address to the Ethernet card's MAC address.
