This page allows you to configure an Internet connection or more than one for your box.
Configure your Internet connection(s) with the details supplied by your Internet Service Provider.
By default, the page shows existing Internet connections and its status. Click button to add a new connection or you can modify or delete an existing connection.
Internet connections (WAN connections) are created on top of a physical internet connection device (also called as 'WAN mode'). Your box might support more than one physical internet connection devices such as:-
Each connection devices provides internet connectivity using various connectivity methods (Proto's) such as DHCP, PPPoE, PPPoA, Static etc. or can be configured as a Bridge WAN. For these connectivity methods, you might need to supply additional configuration parameters.
Selection Mode: Physical Internet connection devices | |
---|---|
ETH (Ethernet Device) | Ethernet based interface. Configurable as VLAN. |
PTM (VDSL or ADSL Device) | Ethernet based interface. Configurable as VLAN. |
ATM (ADSL Device) | ATM based interface. Link type of this interface can be configured as Ethernet Based (EoA) or ATM based (by using PPP - PPPoA). Configurable as VLAN when using Ethernet Based link type. |
LTE (LTE USB Device) | Ethernet based interface. Configurable as VLAN. |
Configuring as Bridge |

Select any 'WAN mode'-Brige to create a Bridge WAN |
ATM specific additional params to configure | |
---|---|
Encapsulation | Protocol carried out in ATM adaptation layer specified by RFC 2684 |
Types: - LLC (logical link control) - VC-Mux (Virtual circuit multiplexing) | |
Link Type | Change ATM Link type |
Types: - EoA (Ethernet over ATM) - IPoA (IP over ATM) - PPPoA (PPP over ATM) | |
ATM QoS Class | - UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate). This is selected by default. |
Other options: - CBR (Constant Bit Rate) - GFR (Guaranteed Frame Rate) - VBR-nrt (Non-Real-Time Variable Bit Rate) - VBR-rt (Real-Time Variable Bit Rate) - UBR+ (UBR specified with a minimum cell rate) - ABR (Available Bit Rate) | |
Peak Cell Rate | The maximum allowable rate at which cells can be transported along a connection in the ATM network. |
Maximum Burst Size | The maximum allowable burst size of cells that can be transmitted contiguously on a particular connection. |
Sustainable Cell Rate | A calculation of the average allowable, long-term cell transfer rate on a specific connection. |
Connectivity Methods (Protos) | |
---|---|
Static | User to manually provide Static IP address, Subnet, Gateway and DNS information provided by ISP. It is used with most of the network interfaces. |
DHCP | Automatically get IP address, Subnet, Gateway and DNS information from ISP using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. It is used with most of the network interfaces. |
PPPoE | Automatically get IP address, Subnet, Gateway and DNS information from ISP using Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. It is used with most of the network interfaces. Requires Username and Password to connect. |
PPPoA | Automatically get IP address, Subnet, Gateway and DNS information from ISP using Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM. It is used mainly with DSL (ADSL ATM) and DOCSIS interfaces. Requires Username and Password to connect. |
