Easy Setup
This chapter describes how to define router configuration settings using the Easy Setup Wizard. These
settings control access to the Wide Area Network (WAN) and Local Area Network (LAN). During the Easy
Setup procedure, you will be prompted to specify configuration parameters that may require information from
your service provider.
Access Easy Setup Wizard
To access the Easy Setup Wizard, click Easy Setup in the left navigation pane of the Router Information
window. This wizard will walk you through the configuration screens necessary to setup the router. You can
exit the Easy Setup Wizard at anytime by clicking Cancel on the bottom of the configuration page. If the wizard
is cancelled, no changes will be made and you will need to begin again.
Select Protocol
When you click Easy Setup in the left navigation
pane of the Router Information page, the
Untrusted Interface Configuration page is
displayed. This page is used to enter information
for the Untrusted (WAN-side) Ethernet Interface
that will communicate with the Internet access
device (broadband modem or similar).
To configure the Untrusted interface:
1. Select one of the following connection
methods:
• Using PPPoE if you will use the Point-to-
Point Protocol (PPP) to establish the
connection.
• Not Using PPPoE if you will establish the
connection based on IP addressing.
