Information — WAN Link

The Information menu's WAN Link command displays the status of the Wireless

Gateway's WAN port.

Basic status can be “Specify Global IP Address,” “Obtain Global IP Address

Automatically (DHCP),” or “PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE),” depending on which of

these is currently selected in the Basic Setup menu's Broadband Router settings panel.

When basic status is “Specify Global IP Address,” this panel shows settings input by

the user in the Basic Setup menu's Broadband Router panel (and also viewable there).

When basic status is “Obtain Glo bal IP Address Automatically (DHCP)” or “PPP

over Ethernet (PPPoE),” this panel shows the WAN port settings received from the

ISP over the WAN link. Any static DNS server IP addresses input by the user in the

Basic Setup menu's Broadband Router panel are also shown.
