The Setup Tab - Basic Setup

The Basic Setup screen is the first screen you see when you access the Web-based Utility.

Internet Setup

The Internet Setup section configures the Router for your Internet connection type. This information can be obtained from your ISP.

Internet Connection Type

The Router supports six connection types: Obtain an IP automatically (DHCP), Static IP, PPPoE, RAS, PPTP, and Heart Beat Signal. Each Basic Setup screen and available features will differ depending on what kind of connection type you select.
