Configuring Dynamic IP Connection

The Compex WP11A+ is pre-configured with WAN connection using Dynamic IP.
Hence, if you are using Cable Internet access, you do not need to configure the WAN
connection.

However, if your account requires a DHCP Client ID in order to release an IP address,
you may need to configure the name of Compex WP11A+ with that of the DHCP Client
ID issued by your ISP.

See the section on “System Identity” on Page 68, and remember to enter the DHCP
Client ID issued by the ISP into the System Name field in the System Identity.

NOTE
If your computer is not able to resolve any web site, please verify that your
DNS entry of the computer has been defined correctly.
