ƒAddress Mode: PPPoE can be used with a dynamic or static IP address. If you select the Dynamic IP radio button, then the IIP address in the next field is not required. However, if you select the Static IP radio button, then the IP address in the next field is required.

ƒUser Name: Specify the user name which is provided by your ISP.

ƒPassword: Specify the password which is provided by your ISP, and then verify it once again in the next field.

ƒService Name: Specify the name of the ISP.

ƒReconnect Mode: Select a reconnection time: Always on (A connection to the Internet is always maintained), On demand (A connection to the Internet is made as needed), Manual: You have to open up the Web-based management interface and click the Connect button manually any time that you wish to connect to the Internet.

ƒMaximum Idle Time:

ƒPrimary / Secondary DNS Address: Specify the primary and secondary IP address, which is assigned by your ISP.

ƒMTU: The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is a parameter that determines the largest packet size (in bytes) that the router will send to the WAN. If LAN devices send larger packets, the router will break them into smaller packets. Ideally, you should set this to match the MTU of the connection to your ISP. Typical values are 1500 bytes for an Ethernet connection and 1492 bytes for a PPPoE connection. If the router's MTU is set too high, packets will be fragmented downstream. If the router's MTU is set too low, the router will fragment packets unnecessarily and in extreme cases may be unable to establish some connections. In either case, network performance can suffer.

ƒMAC Address: If you need to change the MAC address of the rounter's WAN-side Ethernet interface, either type in an alternate MAC address (for example, the MAC address of the router initially connected to the ISP) or click on Clone Your PCs MAC Address.

ƒClick on the Save Settings button to store these settings.
