Connect to WAN

Once you have configured the Router, saved changes and restarted it, you can

connect the manager PC to the Internet. The procedure is the same for PPPoE

and PPPoA connections.

Connect with PPP (PPPoE and PPPoA)

If you have enabled the Connect on Demand feature, the Router will have

established the WAN connection upon restarting.

If the Connect on Demand feature has been disabled, click the Connect button to

initiate the PPP connection via the ADSL WAN interface. The “handshake”

process will take a few seconds.

In the PPPoE or PPPoA Configuration widow, viewing the Connection Status

Connected, under PPPoE Information or PPPoA Information will indicate a

valid connection. A valid ADSL connection can also be confirmed by observing the

LED indicators on the front panel of the device.

Connect with RFC 1483

Bridged Ethernet connections are established upon restarting the Router.

Internet access is simply a matter of launching a web browser on the manager

PC.

Disconnect PPP

For PPP connections. the WAN connection can be terminated at any time by

clicking on the Disconnect button in the PPPoE or PPPoA Configuration

window. It is recommended that you disconnect the ADSL connection and change

the user name and password used to access the web-based manager. Then set up

the rest of your network.
