port of the Gateway. This MAC address may be needed by
your service provider to register your connection. It is printed
on the Gateway’s bottom label.
• WAN IP Address: This IP address is assigned to your
Gateway WAN port by your service provider.
• Subnet Mask: This is your service provider’s IP address
subnet mask.
• Gateway: This is your service provider’s IP address for the
Internet WAN Gateway.
• Domain Name Server (DNS): This is the address of the first
server assigned to process a Web-Name-to-IP-address lookup.
• Remaining IP Lease Time: The IP lease time is the amount
of time that your account has to “lease,” or use, an IP address
to access the Internet. Typically, IP lease times are measured in
hours or days. This field shows how much time is left before
the current “lease” expires. Click Renew to begin your lease
anew. You can opt to have the lease automatically renew itself.

The System Status screen also provides details about any attached
peripherals, such as a printer or dial-up or ISDN modem. It
displays information such as the
• Printer: If you are connected to a printer, the status will be
Ready, Paper out or Not ready. A Kill button may appear,
so you can stop a print job in progress.
• Dial-up Modem: If you are using a dial-up or ISDN modem,
the status will be Ready, Not ready, or Dialing. When there
is a connection, the connection speed will be displayed. When
the modem is ready, you will see a button to manually “dial-
up” the connection. When the modem is connected, you will
see a button to manually “hang-up” the modem.
