CONNECTING TO THE INTERN ET
The K60D supports the three main types of internet connections:
DHCP (typically used by cable companies and DSL basic service)
Static IP (fixed public IP address mostly used by Business Class Broadband services)
PPPoE (used by DSL companies such as AT&T)
Determine what type of internet connection you have from your Internet Service Provider (ISP),
then follow one of the three instruction sets below to connect the router to the internet.
DHCP:
If your ISP uses DHCP, no configuration changes are necessary. The router already connects to
the internet in DHCP mode by default.
Static IP:
To configure the router to a static IP, complete the following steps:
A. Determine the following information provided by the ISP:
i. Your assigned IP address
ii. Subnet mask
iii. Default gateway
iv. DNS server(s)
B. Plug your PC into any numbered port on the router using an Ethernet cable.
C. Open any internet browser on the PC and go to http://192.168.1.99.
D. Log in to the router using pakedge / pakedgef as the username and password.
E. Navigate to Network under System on the left-hand side of the screen and click on
Interface.
F. Next, click on the wan1 row. You should see the configuration page for wan1.
G. Start by selecting Manual under the Addressing Mode heading. Enter the IP address
and subnet mask information provided by the ISP. Once you are done, hit OK at the
bottom of the page.
H. Next, click on DNS under the Network heading.
I. Type in the DNS values that you received from your ISP under Primary and
Secondary DNS. Hit Apply.
J. Navigate to the Router tab on the left and click Static Route.
K. Click Create New located right above the checkboxes.
L. In the Gateway field, type in the default gateway provided by the ISP and hit OK.
Note: Make sure that the Device field is set to wan1 and that the Destination/IP
Mask field is set to 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0.
M. The router is now configured and ready for use.
