Note: If you have installed PPP software such as WinPoET (from Earthlink) or Enternet (from

PacBell), then you have PPPoE. Select Yes. After selecting Yes and configuring your Router, you

will not need to run the PPP software on your PC to connect to the Internet.

Account Name

(also known as Host Name or System Name)

For most users, type your account name or user name in this box. For example, if your main mail

account is JerAB@ISP.com, then put JerAB in this box.

If your ISP has given you a specific Host name, then type it (for example, CCA7324-A).

Domain Name

For most users, you may leave this box blank, unless required by your ISP. You may type the

domain name of your ISP. For example, if your ISP's mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.zzz, you would type

xxx.yyy.zzz as the Domain Name.

If you have a Domain name given to you by your ISP, type it in this box. (For example, Earthlink

Cable may require a Host name of 'home' and Comcast sometimes supplies a Domain name.)

Internet IP Address

If you log in to your service or your ISP did not provide you with a fixed IP address, the Router will

find an IP address for you automatically when you connect. Select Get Dynamically From ISP.

If you have a fixed (or static IP) address, your ISP will have provided you with the required

information. Select Use Static IP Address and type the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway IP

Address into the correct boxes.

For example:

•

IP Address: 24.218.156.183

•

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

•

Gateway IP Address: 24.218.156.1
