Setting up your wireless router

Change WAN MAC Address
If your ISP requires a specific MAC address to connect to the service, you can enter a specific
MAC address or clone the current computer's MAC address through this link.
Setting your Internet Service Provider (ISP) Connection Type to Static IP
A static IP address connection type is less common than other connection types. If your ISP
uses static IP addressing, you will need your IP address, subnet mask, and ISP gateway
address. This information is available from your ISP or on the paperwork that your ISP left
with you. Type in your information, then click Apply Changes. After you apply the changes,
the Internet Status indicator will read connection OK if your router is set up correctly.
Setting your ISP Connection Type to PPPoE
Most DSL providers use PPPoE as the connection type. If you use a DSL modem to connect to
the Internet, your ISP may use PPPoE to log you into the service. If you have an Internet
connection in your home or small office that doesn't require a modem, you may also use
PPPoE.
