Chapter 4 Using Advanced Setup

Specify a Static IP Address

Select this option if the ISP service is configured to use RFC 1483 Bridged or Routed using a Static IP Address. Enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Router Address provided by the ISP in the “Broadband Connection via Static IP Address” screen, which causes the IP address and routing information to terminate at the Router, as opposed to the IP address and routing information being bridged to ter- minate at the computer. This allows the use of the router capabilities for the Local Area Network (LAN).

☞Note: Contact the ISP if unsure of the proper configuration.
