WAN Port Configuration

The WAN Port Configuration screen provides an alternative to using the Wizard. It can be accessed from the Internet menu. An example screen is shown below.

Figure28: WAN Port Configuration ScreenData – WAN Port Configuration ScreenIdentification
Hostname

Normally, there is no need to change the default name, but if your ISP

 

requests that you use a particular “Hostname”, enter it here.

 

 

Domain name

If your ISP provided a domain name, enter it here. Otherwise, this

 

may be left blank.

 

 

MAC Address

Also called Network Adapter Address or Physical Address. This is a

 

low-level identifier, as seen from the WAN port.

 

Normally there is no need to change this, but some ISPs require a

 

particular value, often that of the PC initially used for Internet access.

 

You can use the Copy from PC button to copy your PC's address into

 

this field, the Default button to insert the default value, or enter a

 

value directly.
