Actiontec DSL Gateway User Manual
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 Gateway Address provided by the ISP in the “Broadband Connection via Static IP Address” screen, which causes the IP address and routing information to termi- nate at the Gateway, as opposed to the IP address and routing information being bridged to terminate 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.
Encapsulation
If the Gateway is configured to obtain an IP address through DHCP or to specify a static IP address, select the appropriate encapsulation option used by the ISP (RFC 1483 Bridged or RFC 1483 Routed).
Note: Contact the ISP if unsure of the proper configuration.
