DSL-1500G SHDSL Ethernet Router User’s Guide

The parameters available to be configured in the Router/Bridge Configuration menu change according to the Connection Profile configured.

NOTICE: If you must change the Connection Profile, change it to the desired setting and click the OK button without making any other changes. Save the changes and reboot the device. Upon restarting continue to configure any remaining settings that need to be changed in the Router/Bridge Configuration Menu. It will again be necessary to save settings and restart the Router to establish the WAN connection.

All connections must configure:

	Use this drop-down menu to select the connection profile. If your
Connection Profile	account uses a connection protocol that is not listed, it will be necessary
	to create a new connection profile. Also, if your DSL connection uses
	different VPI/VCI values, a new connection profile must be created. See
	the next section, Adding and Changing a Connection Profile.

Encapsulation Method Select LLC or VC Mux as instructed by your service provider.

PPPoA and PPPoE connection profiles must configure:

Login User Name	Type in the account user name used for authentication by your network
	service provider.
Login Password	Type in the account password used for authentication by your network
	service provider.
Confirm Password	Type the same password to confirm it.
Authentication	Choose the security protocol used to confirm the identity of the
	subscriber. Choose chap (default) or pap form the drop-down menu.
	Select enabled or disabled. When this function is enabled the router will
Connect on Demand	connect any workstation on your LAN to the Internet upon request. If this
	function is disabled, it will be necessary to access this menu and hit the
	Connect button each time you want to establish a connection to the
	WAN or the Internet.
	A value of 0 means that the PPP connection will remain connected. If
	your network account is billed according to the amount of time the
Idle Time	Router is actually connected to the Internet, enter an appropriate Idle
	Time value (in seconds). This will disconnect the Router after the WAN
	connection has been idle for the amount of time specified. The default
	value = 0.
IPoA connection profiles must configure:
	This is enabled by default and therefore no IP settings need to be
IP Unnumbered	entered for the account. If this is disabled, (global) IP settings must be
	configured for the WAN interface.
IP Address	If IP Unnumbered is disabled, type in the WAN IP address for the
	account.
Subnet Mask	If IP Unnumbered is disabled, type in the subnet mask for the WAN
	interface.
