Actiontec Wireless Cable/DSL Router User Manual

User Name and Password

If a User Name and Password was entered during Basic Setup, it should be dis- played in the “Broadband Connection via PPPoE” screen. If not, enter the informa- tion now. If the information is unavailable, contact the Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Obtain an IP Through DHCP

Select this option (used for cable modem configurations without a Static IP assigned by an ISP) to allow the modem to query the Internet Service Provider (ISP) and receive IP address and routing information. Some ISPs need to authenticate their end users with a Host Name and/or Domain Name. If this is the case, check with the ISP for a host name and domain name and enter them in the “Broadband Connection via DHCP” screen. If the ISP does not require these settings, leave the text boxes blank.

Note: Host and domain name information may also be accessed from the computer originally connected to the cable modem.
