WAN Configuration – Specifies the Internet connection parameters for the 
wireless AP/Router’s WAN port. Click Next after completing the setup. The 
interface provides the facility for Dual WAN connections for purposes of 
backing up the main internet connection.

The displayed items on this page are described in the sections that follow:

WAN Connection —  By default, the access point WAN port is configured with 
DHCP enabled. After you have network access to the access point, you can use the 
web browser interface to modify the initial IP configuration, if needed. The options 
are Static IP, DHCP, PPPoE, 3G, PPTP, L2TP, Bigpond and WiFi. Each option 
changes the parameters displayed below it. (Default: DHCP)

Backup WAN —  A backup failsafe connection for the WAN port (Dual WAN.) 
Options are determined by the WAN Connection selected. Backup WAN and WAN 
Connection parameters are identical for each of their eight equivilent modes: Static 
IP, DHCP, PPPoE, 3G, PPTP, L2TP, Bigpond and WiFi. (Default: None)
• WAN detect IP address:  IP address used to detect if the primary WAN connection 

is on or off.

• Backup WAN detect IP address: IP address used to detect if the backup WAN 

connection is on or off.

• ICMP detect timeout: Set the ICMP (Ping) time out.
• Main WAN Fallback: When the Backup WAN is enabled, Main WAN Fallback can 

be enabled to periodically search the primary WAN port for recovery of the lost 
connection. If connection is re-established the connection switches back to the 
primary WAN connection. (Default: Disabled)

Note: When 3G is selected as the primary WAN Connection the Backup WAN must be a 

DSL/Cable connection.
