[. . . ] Make sure you have all the necessary information before you configure the WAN connection. The ATM VC Settings at the top of the menu should not be changed unless you have been instructed to change them. However, if you are instructed to change the VPI or VCI values, type in the values assigned for your account. Leave the PVC and Virtual Circuit settings at their default (Pcv0 and Enabled) values for now. These can be used later if you are configuring multiple virtual circuits for your ADSL service. Under Dynamic IP section, choose the Connection Type from the pull-down menu. For Dynamic IP mode connections the available encapsulation methods are 1483 Bridged IP LLC and 1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux. Some ISP's may require you to use the original computer that was originally registered for the Internet service. To obtain the MAC address of the computer, you can do the following. 2. 3. 4. For Windows XP/2000: Start Run cmd OK In the command prompt, type in ipconfig/all. The physical Address is the MAC address of the computer. For Windows ME: Start Run command OK In the command prompt, type in ipconfig/all. The physical Address is the MAC address of the computer. 5. If you have not been instructed to change the ATM settings at the bottom of the menu, leave these at the default settings. If you have been given new settings to configure, select the Service Category and type in the values for PCR and VCI in Kbps. Static IP Address for WAN When the Router is configured to use Static IP Address assignment for the WAN connection, you must manually assign a global IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway IP Address used for the WAN connection. Most users will also configure DNS server IP settings in the DNS Settings configuration menu (see below). Follow the instruction below to configure the Router to use Static IP Address assignment for the WAN connection. WAN Settings - Static IP 6. Click to select the Static IP Address radio button listed in the WAN Settings options list. The menu will change to offer a different set of configuration options. Under the ATM VC Setting heading, do not change the PVC (Pvc0) index for the initial connection. Also under the ATM VC Setting, you see two numbers, the VCI and VPI values. Do not change the VPI or VCI value unless you have been told to do so. If you have been given specific settings for this to configure, type in the correct values assigned by your ISP. Set the Virtual Circuit setting to Enabled in the pull-down menu if it is not already enabled. [. . . ] Values outside the range of 0 to 255 can never appear in an IP address (0 to 255 is the full range of integer values that can be expressed with eight bits). The network portion must be the same for all the IP devices on a discrete physical network (a single Ethernet LAN, for example, or a WAN link). The host portion must be different for each IP device -- or, to be more precise, each IP-capable port or interface -- connected directly to that network. The network portion of an IP address will be referred to in this manual as a network number; the host portion will be referred to as a host number. [. . . ]
