Setup Options
Wide Area Network Connection
The DSL (LINE) connection is the Wide Area Network (WAN) connection. It is also 
referred to as a broadband connection. The requirements for the WAN connection 
depend on your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Most of the configuration you will 
perform will be in this area. 
Local Area Network Connection
On the other side of your router are your own Local Area Network (LAN) 
connections. This is where you plug in your local computers to the router. The 
router is normally configured to automatically provide all the PCs on your network 
with Internet addresses. 
If you connected a PC (rather than a hub or a switch) directly to the router, your 
LAN consists of that PC. 
Saving Changes
Note that the Apply button temporarily saves changes you make. To make

Commands. At the System Commands page, click on Save All.
