If your ISP requires you to set a fixed IP address to establish connection, you can use this connection type to input the IP address information assigned by your ISP.
Please note that not only xDSL connections (like ADSL, HDSL, VDSL) can use this connection type, you can select this connection type for all connections that requires you to input a fixed IP address. Also, if your ISP is assigning a fixed IP address to you by DHCP or PPPoE, do not select this connection type. Please contact your ISP’s service hotline to make sure you really need to use static IP as connection type.
