WiMAX Device Configuration User’s Guide

Use these settings to configure the PPPoE connection between the WiMAX Device and the service 
provider.

Click Network Setting > WAN > PPPoE.

PPPoE Screen

WAN IP Request 
Timeout

Enter the number of seconds the WiMAX Device waits for an IP from the ISP 
before it times out.

WAN IP Address

If the WiMAX Device gets its IP from the user, enter the IP address it is to use.

WAN IP Subnet 
Mask

If the WiMAX Device gets its IP from the ISP, enter the IP address it is to use.

Gateway IP 
Address

If the WiMAX Device gets its gateway IP address from the user, enter the IP 
address it is to use.

MTU

Enter the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) for the WiMAX Device. This is the 
largest protocol unit that the WiMAX Device allows to pass through it.

Clone MAC 
Address

Enter a MAC address here for registering bridged devices on the network if their 
current MAC addresses are causing problems. For example, this can happen 
when a desktop computer swaps network interface cards; the original NIC may 
have used its MAC address to register itself on the network and now the new NIC 
is unrecognized. Using a MAC address that you know is valid, i.e. a “clone”, 
allows that device to stay registered.

WAN DNS

First~Third DNS 
Server

Select how the WiMAX Device acquires its DNS server address.

•

From ISP - Select this to have the WiMAX Device acquire its DNS server 

address from the ISP.

•

User Define - Select this to manually enter the DNS server used by the 

WiMAX Device.
