If your DSL line is connected and your DSL/IPS provider is supporting DHCP, you can click the
renew button and the gateway will retrieve an IP address, Subnet mask, and Gateway address.

5.2.3.5 Static Connection Setup
Static is used whenever a known static IP is assigned. The accompanying information such as
the Subnet mask and the gateway should also be specified. Up to three Domain Name Server
(DNS) addresses can also be specified. These servers would enable you to have access to other
web servers. Valid IP addresses range is from 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255.
To configure the Wireless ADSL Router for a Static connection, click on Setup and then click on
New Connection . The default Static connection setup is displayed. At the Type field select Static
and the Static connection setup page is displayed; figure 18 illustrates a typical Static
configuration. Give your Static connection a unique name; the name must not have spaces and
cannot begin with numbers. In this case the unique name is called
STATIC1 . Select the
encapsulation type (LLC or VC); if you are not sure just use the default mode. Select the VPI and
VCI settings; your DSL service provider or your ISP will supply these; in this case the DSL service
provider is using
0,100 . Also select the quality of service (QOS); leave the default value if you
are unsure or the ISP did not provide this information. You can also enable Network Address
Translation (NAT) and the Firewall options. If you are unsure, leave these in the default mode.
Based upon the information your DSL/ISP provided, enter your assigned IP address, Subnet
Mask, Default Gateway (if provided), and Domain Name Services (DNS) values (if provided). For
the static configuration, you can also select a bridge connection or a routed connection. Since
static IP address is typically used to host WEB servers, you may want to use a bridge connection.
