Some ISPs—most notably some cable providers—configure
their networks so that you do not have to enter a full Internet
address into your web browser or e-mail application to reach your
home page or receive your e-mail. If your Internet home page
address is something very simple, such as “www”, rather than
“www.linksys.com”, or your e-mail server’s address is something similar to “e-
mail” or “pop3”, rather than “pop.mail.linksys.com”, you won’t be able to prop-
erly configure your Router until you determine the actual Internet addresses of
your Web and e-mail connections.
You
mmuusstt
obtain this information prior to connecting the Router to your network.
You can obtain this information by contacting your ISP, or you can turn to the
