3. Make the proper network configurations. Each network interface is enabled immediately when you check the box next to it. • If you use a network cable connected to a home router (which is then connected to your DSL/cable modem), enable LAN1. • The most common scenario is for your computer to automatically obtain network settings (i.e. DHCP). If this is the case, you don't need to click Setup for any LAN port. If this is not the case, click Setup to configure the static IP settings manually. • If you use a network cable connected directly to your DSL/cable modem (no router in between), click Setup for xDSL/cable dial-up. This method is also referred to as PPPoE. Choose whether the DSL/cable modem is connected to your computer's LAN port. Then enter the username and password for your dial-up account. Click OK to enable xDSL/cable dial-up and establish the PPPoE connection. When PPPoE is enabled, the port it uses will automatically be unchecked and grayed out. ASUS P5Q-VM 3-15

3.
Make the proper network configurations.
Each network interface is enabled immediately when you check the box next
to it.
If you use a network cable connected to a home router (which is then
connected to your DSL/cable modem), enable LAN1.
The most common scenario is for your computer to automatically obtain
network settings (i.e. DHCP). If this is the case, you don’t need to click
Setup
for any LAN port. If this is not the case, click
Setup
to configure the static IP
settings manually.
If you use a network cable connected directly to your DSL/cable modem (no
router in between), click
Setup
for xDSL/cable dial-up. This method is also
referred to as PPPoE. Choose whether the DSL/cable modem is connected
to your computer’s LAN port. Then enter the username and password for your
dial-up account.
Click
OK
to enable xDSL/cable dial-up and establish the PPPoE connection.
When PPPoE is enabled, the port it uses will automatically be unchecked and
grayed out.
