A: About Static and Dynamic IP Address

As the interface between WAN and LAN, the Gateway provides a secure solution for Internet access over a shared netowrk in a home or small office environment. With the built-in NAT technology, the Gateway delivers firewall protection, preventing network intruders and hackers. Compliant with IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u standards and designed as a DHCP server, the Gateway offers high-speed network connectivity , providing up to 253 users access through one Internet connection and the ability to assign IP addresses to the devices on your LAN.

Designed with a management utility, the Gateway can block specific interior users’ Internet access and offer the network administrator remote access capabilities.

·Supports PPPoE, PPTP Client, and Dynamic DNS

·Connects to a cable/DSL modem or to an Ethernet backbone

·Includes with a 4-port 10/100 Mbps Switch

·Creates a firewall to protect your computers from outside intruders

·Acts as either a DHCP server on the LAN or a DHCP client on the WAN

·Configurable through any networked PC’s web browser

·Users will be able to access the internal IP servers via the Internet, using the virtual server feature.

·Administrators can block specific interior users’ Internet access

A static IP address is an IP address that is assigned to a computer by an Internet service provider to be its permanent address on the Internet. It is normally used in the computer networks, where computers are connected all the times. As the Internet gets more crowded, there are not enough IP numbers to go around. For this reason, more and more ISPs are offering dynamic IP address instead. Check with your ISP if they provide you a Static IP address. A dynamic IP address is a temperately IP address assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server from a pool of IP addresses. A dynamic IP address may change every time when you log in the network.
