A correct WAN Setup allows you to successfully share your Internet 

connection among the wired and wireless clients of the router. To do 
so, you need to identify the type of broadband Internet access you are 
subscribed to: 
 

i.  Cable Internet where your ISP dynamically assigns a WAN IP 

address 

 

ii.  Cable Internet where your ISP provides you with a fixed WAN IP 

address (or a   range of fixed IP addresses) 

 

iii.  ADSL Internet that requires standard PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) for 

authentication 

 
iv.  ADSL Internet that requires standard Point-to-Point Tunneling 

Protocol (PPTP) for authentication. 

 

v.  ADSL Internet that requires standard Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol 

(L2TP) for authentication. L2TP is an extension to the PPP protocol 
that enables ISPs to operate VPNs. It is the best combination of 
PPTP (from Microsoft) and L2F (from Cisco Systems). It has the 
most similar parameters of the PPTP except that it does not 
support the DHCP server.
