Connecting the Router to the Internet

3-17

•

Select “Get Automatically from ISP” if your ISP uses DHCP to assign your IP address. 
Your ISP will automatically assign this address. 

•

Select “Use These DNS Servers” if your ISP gave you one or two DNS addresses. Type 
the primary and secondary addresses.

6.

You should only disable NAT if you are sure you do not require it. NAT automatically assigns 
private IP addresses (192.168.0.x) to LAN connected devices. When NAT is disabled, only 
standard routing is performed by this router.

 

Classical routing lets you directly manage the IP addresses the DG834G uses. Classical 
routing should selected only by experienced users.

Note: Disabling NAT will reboot the router and reset all the DG834G configuration settings to 
the factory default. Disable NAT only if you plan to install the DG834G in a setting where you 
will be manually administering the IP address space on the LAN side of the router.

1.

If your Internet connection does require login, select Yes and fill in the settings according to 
the instructions below.

Note: You will no longer need to launch the ISP’s login program on your computer in order to 
access the Internet. When you start an Internet application, your router automatically logs you 
in.

2.

Choose PPPoA for the encapsulation method your ISP uses.

3.

Enter the login name (frequently the email address your ISP provided), and password.

4.

If you want to change the login timeout, enter a new value in minutes. This determines how 
long the router keeps the Internet connection active after there is no Internet activity from the 
LAN. Entering an Idle Timeout value of zero means never log out.

5.

Internet IP Address: 

•

Select “Get Dynamically from ISP” if your ISP uses DHCP to assign your IP address. 
Your ISP will automatically assign these addresses.

•

Select “Use Static IP Address” if your ISP has assigned you a permanent, fixed (static) IP 
address. Enter the IP address that your ISP assigned.

The DNS server is used to look up site addresses based on their names.
