WAN Configuration
Once you have configured your router with the Basic Setup, you have already configured the WAN connection (Internet access) of your router. Use the WAN configuration option in Advanced Setup to check and change these settings.
You can also change the operating mode of the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable. The Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable is supplied as Router but you can also use it as a Bridge.
