CHAPTER 7 Internet Setup 7.1 Overview This chapter describes how to configure Wide Area Network (WAN) settings from the Internet screens. Use these screens to configure your ZyXEL Device for Internet access. A WAN connection is an outside connection to another network or the Internet. It connects your private networks (such as a Local Area Network (LAN) and other networks, so that a computer in one location can communicate with computers in other locations. Figure 20 LAN and WAN LAN WAN 7.1.1 What You Can Do in the Internet Screens • Use the Internet screen (Section 7.2 on page 55) to configure the WAN settings on the ZyXEL Device for Internet access. • Use the PVCs Summary screen (Section 7.2.5 on page 62) to display a summary table for PVC settings. 7.1.2 What You Need to Know About ADSL Internet Access Encapsulation Method Encapsulation is used to include data from an upper layer protocol into a lower layer protocol. To set up a WAN connection to the Internet, you need to use the same encapsulation method used by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). If your ISP offers a dial-up Internet connection using PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) or PPPoA, they should also provide a username and password (and service name) for user authentication.
