ADD A DEFAULT GATEWAY
The modem default gateway is a IP address through which packets are routed to the internet if the next hop IP address cannot be identified by the modem. Use the IP address of a router on the LAN or WAN end. If the network does not have gateways, use the default value (0.0.0.0).
When setting the modem default gateway, if the first session you set up was a PPP session, the IP address that was dynamically assigned to that PPP session was also automatically assigned as the default gateway. If you do not want this IP address (PPP WAN session) as the default gateway, then use this page to change it to another value.
