of the Ethernet WAN interface has to be manually set, select Router with a Static-IP DSL/Cable Connection.

If you have multiple ADSL/cable connections, select Router with n DSL/Cable Connections. Select the number of connections using the drop-down list, and then specify the type, downlink date rate and uplink data rate of each ADSL/cable connection. The specified data rates affect the load-balancing engine of the SMCWHSG44-G.

DSL/Cable Connection mode.

If the SMCWHSG44-Gis set to be in Router with a PPPoE-Based DSL/Cable Connection mode, two IP addresses are needed-one for the Ethernet LAN interface and the other for the WAN interface. The LAN IP address must be set manually to a private IP address, say 192.168.2.xxx. The default LAN IP address is 192.168.2.1 and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. In most cases, these default settings need no change.

As for the WAN IP address, it is obtained automatically by PPPoE from the ISP. Consult your ISP for the correct User name, Password, and Service name settings.

The Trigger mode setting specifies the way a PPPoE connection is established. Your PPPoE connection can be established and disconnected manually (Manual) by clicking the Connect and Disconnect buttons on the Start page, respectively. Or you can choose to let the device automatically (Auto) establish a PPPoE connection at boot-up time. In Auto mode, if the connection is disrupted, the device will omtry to reestablish the broken connection automatically.
