Application Guide — EIPR Series

Application #1 — A Cable Modem Connection to the Internet

In the WAN Setup, the default Connection Type is

DHCP — where a DHCP server on the WAN side will

automatically assign an IP address, subnet mask,

default gateway address and one or more DNS

addresses to the WAN side of the IP router. Some

cable modems have DHCP server functionality.

If a DHCP server is unavailable on the WAN network,

you must make static IP entries for the WAN side of

the router. Enter the IP address, subnet mask, default

gateway address and one or more DNS addresses

when using the Static IP option.

Application #2 — A DSL Modem Connection to the Internet

With DSL modems, the PPPoE protocol

must be selected — and a username and

password provided. Once a connection is

established, the ISP furnishes all the needed

WAN IP address assignments.
