WAN Interface Settings

To configure WAN Interface IP

Dynamic IP

The ISP requires you to obtain an IP address by DHCP before

 

 

connecting to the PPTP server.

 

 

MAC Cloning

 

 

Select <Enabled> to allow replacing the WAN MAC address

 

 

with a specific MAC address.

 

 

MAC Address

 

 

Your ISP may require a particular MAC address in order for

 

 

you to connect to the Internet. This MAC address is the PC’s

 

 

MAC address that your ISP had originally connected your

 

 

Internet connection to. Type in this MAC address in this

 

 

section or use the “Clone MAC Address” button to replace

 

 

the WAN MAC address with the MAC address of that PC.

Static IP

The ISP gives you a static IP to be used to connect to the

 

 

PPTP server. You must type in the related IP address such as

 

 

IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway.
PPTP Settings

 

PPTP Account

Enter the PPTP Account provided by your ISP for the PPTP

 

 

connection.

 

PPTP Password

Enter the Password provided by your ISP for the PPTP

 

 

connection.

 

Retype Password

Re-enter the Password for confirmation.

 

PPTP Gateway

If your LAN has a PPTP gateway, then enter that PPTP

 

 

gateway IP address or domain name here. If you do not have

 

 

a PPTP gateway then enter the ISP’s Gateway IP address

 

 

above or domain name.

 

Connection ID

This is the ID given by ISP. This is optional.

 

Maximum Idle Time

You can specify an idle time threshold (seconds) for the WAN

 

 

port. This means if no packets have been sent (no one using

 

 

the Internet) during this specified period, the router will

 

 

automatically disconnect the connection with your ISP.

 

Connection Mode

Select the desired option:

 

 

Keep-alive (maintain connection)

 

 

The connection will never be disconnected by this device. If

 

 

disconnected by your ISP, the connection will be re-

 

 

established immediately. (However, this does not ensure that

 

 

your Internet IP address will remain unchanged.)

 

 

Auto-Connect

 

 

An Internet connection is automatically made when required,

 

 

and disconnected when idle for the time period specified by

 

 

the "Maximum Idle Time (60~3600)".
