DHCP Configuration

The DHCP is the default service for the Internet Port section. This means that you will get the IP address from the ISP automatically. Choose this type of Protocol for Optus Cable also.

Field

Description

Host Name/Domain Name

Some cable ISPs require the host name and domain

 

name as identification. You may have to check with

 

your ISP to see if your broadband Internet service

 

has been configured with a host and domain name. In

 

most cases, you can assign your own or leave it blank

 

and it will work.

Use Static DNS

If you want to use your own DNS instead of the one

 

provided by your ISP, check this box, and type the IP

 

address of the DNS in the field. (At least one in the

 

primary field.)

MAC address

Some ISPs require a specific MAC address. You can

 

enter the MAC address manually or copy it from a

 

PC which is attached to the Local Port. Simply type

 

in its IP address and the gateway will copy the MAC

 

address from that PC. The gateway comes with the

 

factory default MAC address. You do not need to

 

change the default value if the ISP is not checking the

 

MAC address of your Internet Port.
