5.4 DSL (always on)
Select this type of connection if your DSL connection to your ISP is always on or "Alive." Your ISP will have provided you
with a static IP address, a subnet mask, a gateway (or router) address, and one or more Domain Name Server (DNS) ad- dresses.
Enter the item information in the appropri- ate fields of the Static IP setup screen and click Save. You can find the informa- tion in the table(s) you filled out in the Quick Start Guide on pages 3, 4 or 5.
You must restart the router to make the changes active.
