enter manually. To configure the Router you will need to
know the following:
■ IP address
■ Subnet Mask
■ ISP Gateway address
■ DNS address(es)

Dynamic IP addressing (or DHCP) automatically assigns the
Router IP information. This method is popular with Cable pro-
viders. This method is also used if your modem has a built in
DHCP server.

PIf the installation instructions that accompany your modem
ask you to install a PPPoE client on your PC, then select this
option. To configure the Router you will need to know the
following:
■ Username
■ Password
■ Service Name (if required by your ISP)
■ PPTP (DSL or Cable)
PPTP is used by some providers, mostly in Europe. If the instal-
lation instructions that accompany your modem ask you to
setup a dialup connection using a PPTP VPN tunnel then
select this option. To configure the Router you will need to
know the following:
■ Username
■ Password
■ VPN server address (usually your modem).
