3. Under the Static IP heading, choose the Connection Type from the pull-down menu. This defines both the
connection type and encapsulation method used for your ADSL service. The available options are Bridged
IP LLC, Bridged IP VC-MUX, Routed IP LLC, Routed IP VC-MUX or IPoA.. If have not been provided
specific information for the Connection Type setting, leave the default setting.
4. Change the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway Address and (if available) Secondary DNS Server IP
address as instructed by your ISP. These are the global IP settings for the WAN interface. This is the
“visible” IP address of your account. Your ISP should have provided these IP settings to you. For IPoA
(Classic IP over ATM) connections you may need to type in an additional IP address for a ARP Server
Address. If you are using an IPoA connection, ask your ISP if it is necessary to use an ARP (Address
Resolution Protocol) server.
5. Leave the MTU value at the default setting (default = 1400) unless you have specific reasons to change
this (see table below).
6. Most users will not need to change ATM settings. If this is the first time you are setting up the ADSL
connection it is recommended that you leave the Service Category settings at the default values until you
have established the connection. See the table on page האיגש !תרדגומ הניא הינמיסה. for a description of the
parameters available for ATM traffic shaping.
7. When you are satisfied that all the WAN settings are configured correctly, click on the Apply button.
8. The new settings must be saved and the Router must be restarted for the settings to go into effect. To
Save & Reboot the Router, click on the Tools directory tab and then click the Save & Reboot menu
button. In the Save and Reboot menu, click the Reboot button under Force the DSL-300T to system
restart. The Router will save the new settings and restart. Upon restarting the Router will automatically
establish the WAN connection.
