Click Advanced Setup -> WAN Service and then click the Add button. Select the interface you have
configured. Depending on the type of connection, you will come to different screens and be prompted to
enter your ISP settings accordingly. Select one connection type from the five internet connection types as
shown in the following table (If you are unsure, consult your ISP).

Tip:For PPPoE, IPoE, and Bridging Internet connection types, you must first select EoA on the ATM
Interface Screen, for more information, see To set up the ATM interface.
PPP User Name: This is for logging in to your ISP. If you cannot locate this information, ask your ISP
to provide it.
PPP Password: This is for logging in to your ISP. If you cannot locate this information, ask your ISP to
provide it.
PPPoE Service Name: This information is provided by your ISP. Only enter it if instructed by your ISP.
Authentication Method: This is used by ISP to authenticate the client that attempts to connect. If you
are not sure, consult your ISP or select Auto.
Clone MAC: Clicking this button copies the MAC address of your PC to the router. Many broadband
ISPs restrict access by allowing traffic only from the MAC address of your broadband modem, but
some ISPs additionally register the MAC address of the network interface card in your computer when
your account is first opened. They then accept traffic only from the MAC address of that computer. If
so, configure your router to “clone” the MAC address from the authorized computer.
Dial on demand: Connect to ISP only when there is traffic transmission. This saves your broadband
Internet service bill.
PPP IP extension: If enabled, all the IP addresses in outgoing packets including management packets
on the WAN port will be changed to the device's WAN IP address. Only change the default settings if
necessary.
Enable PPP Debug Mode: Only enable this feature if supported by your ISP.
Bridge PPPoE Frames Between WAN and Local Ports: If enabled, PPPoE dialup frame from LAN
side will directly egress the WAN port without modification.
Multicast Proxy: If enabled, the router will use multicast proxy.
