Actiontec Wireless Cable/DSL Router User Manual

User Name and Password

If a User Name and Password was entered during Basic Setup, it should be dis-
played in the “Broadband Connection via

PPPoE

” screen. If not, enter the informa-

tion now. If the information is unavailable, contact the Internet Service Provider
(

ISP)

.

Obtain an IP Through DHCP

Select this option (used for cable modem configurations without a Static

IP

assigned by an

ISP

) to allow the modem to query the Internet Service Provider (

ISP)

and receive

IP

address and routing information. Some

ISP

s need to authenticate

their end users with a Host Name and/or Domain Name. If this is the case, check
with the

ISP

for a host name and domain name and enter them in the “Broadband

Connection via

DHCP

” screen. If the

ISP

does not require these settings, leave the

text boxes blank.

Note: Host and domain name information may also be accessed

from the computer originally connected to the cable modem.
