1.8.3.2. Router with a DHCP-Based DSL/Cable Connection

Fig. 13. TCP/IP settings for Router with a DHCP-Based

DSL/Cable Connection mode.

If the SMCWHSG44-Gis set to be in 'Router with a DHCP-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 by DHCP from the ISP. The Trigger mode setting affects the behavior of the DHCP client of the Router. In Auto mode, you don't have to worry about the DHCP process; the device takes care of everything. In Manual mode, there are two buttons on the Start page for you to manually release an obtained IP address (Release) and re-obtain a new one from a DHCP server (Renew).
