UIP1868P Router Configuration Guide
The UIP1868P can function as your primary gateway/router or as a device client within an existing network configuration.
If you currently have broadband access and a gateway/router installed at your location, you may add the UIP1868P as a device client to your network. (See “A” below.) If you currently have broadband internet access and do not have a router, you may install your UIP1868P as the primary router to your network. (See “B” below.)

The UIP1868P supports the two most common broadband connection protocols: DHCP (most common connection type found with Cable Modem) and PPPoE (most DSL providers use this connection type).
