network configuration. When setting it manually, input the values (alphanumeric characters) according to the setting of 
your broadband router currently in use. The necessary setting items vary depending on the Internet Service Provider 
(ISP). See the materials provided from your ISP for details.

Description
Example
IP Address
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a numerical identification (logical 
address) that is assigned to computers and network devices connected to 
the network (TCP/IP network).
192.168.xxx.xxx
Subnet Mask
In computer networks based on the Internet protocol suite, a subnet is a 
portion of the network
s computers and network devices. A subnet mask 
can be used to specify which portion of the IP address should be used as 
the network number for the subnet.
255.255.xxx.xxx
Gateway Address 
(Default gateway)
A default gateway is a node (a router) on a computer network that serves as 
an access point to another network. All internet traffic passes through the 
gateway.
In homes, the gateway is usually the ISP-provided device that connects the 
user to the Internet, such as a DSL or cable modem.
192.168.xxx.xxx
DNS Address 
(DNS server address) 
(primary)
The Domain Name System (DNS) associates various information with 
domain names. A DNS server is a special type of computer on the Internet 
used to support the DNS. ISPs give their customers the public IP address 
of the DNS server.
192.168.xxx.xxx
Proxy
In computer networks, a proxy server acts an intermediate gateway 
between you and your Internet connection. The proxy server sends the 
requests of its clients by forwarding requests to other servers. The proxy 
server also provides network firewall, connection sharing, and caching 
technology for private networks. A client connects to the proxy server, 
requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other 
resource, available from a different server. The proxy server provides the 
resource by connecting to the specified server and requesting the service 
on behalf of the client.

DHCP
(Dynamic host 
configuration 
protocol)
DHCP is a protocol used by networked devices (clients) to obtain the 
parameters necessary for operation in an Internet Protocol network. ISPs 
usually use DHCP so that customers can reduce system administration 
workload and join the Internet with minimum effort.
In DHCP, a computer joins the network without having a pre-configured IP 
address. IP addresses are uniquely assigned to devices, then released and 
renewed these addresses as devices leave and re-join the network.
