Specify the Maximum Transmit Unit (MTU) size. It is recommended that you accept the default setting of Auto. Otherwise, packets will be fragmented downstream if the MTU is set too high or too low, which impacts network performance. In extreme cases, an MTU setting that is too low can prevent the ECB350 from establishing some connections.
Assign an IP address Manually. Specify an IP address’s subnet mask. Specify the gateway of your network. Specify the primary DNS server’s IP address. Specify the second DNS server’s IP address.
Check to Enable to recognize pings on the ECB350 WAN interface or Disable to block pings on the ECB350 WAN interface. Note: Pinging IP addresses is a common method used by hackers to test whether the IP address is valid. Blocking pings provides some extra security from hackers.
