◆ WAN Connection Type — By default, the access point WAN port is
configured with DHCP enabled. After you have network access to the
access point, you can use the web browser interface to modify the
initial IP configuration, if needed. The options are Static IP, DHCP (cable
modem), PPPoE (ADSL), and PPTP. Each option changes the parameters
displayed below it. (Default: DHCP).
DHCP Enables Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for the WAN port.
This setting allows the Wireless Broadband Router to automatically obtain
an IP address from a DHCP server normally operated by the Internet
Service Provider (ISP).
