Linksys X2000/X3000 Ethernet mode If you select Ethernet (router-only) mode, the following fields are available: Language Select your language To use a different language, select one from the dropdown menu. The language of the browser-based utility will change five seconds after you select another language. Internet Setup The Internet Setup section configures the router to your Internet connection. Most of this information can be obtained through your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Advanced Configuration Internet Connection Type Select the type of Internet connection your ISP provides from the drop-down menu. The available types are: •• Automatic Configuration - DHCP •• Static IP •• PPPoE •• PPTP •• L2TP •• Telstra Cable Automatic Configuration - DHCP The default Internet Connection Type is Automatic Configuration - DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). Keep the default only if your ISP supports DHCP or if you connect using a dynamic IP address. (This option usually applies to cable connections.) Static IP If you are required to use a fixed IP address to connect to the Internet, select Static IP. PPPoE If you have a DSL connection, check whether your ISP uses Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE). If so, select PPPoE. Connect on Demand or Keep Alive The Connect on Demand and Keep Alive options let you choose whether the router connects to the Internet only as needed (useful if your ISP charges for connect time), or if the router should always be connected. Select the appropriate option. PPTP Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a service that generally applies to connections in Europe. If your PPTP connection supports DHCP or a dynamic IP address, then select Obtain an IP Address Automatically. If you are required to use a fixed IP address to connect to the Internet, then select Specify an IP Address and configure the options below. 16
