Chapter 3 Connection Wizard 3.1.1 Static IP Connection The following Wizard screen allows you to assign a fixed IP address to the NBG6615. Figure 9 Connection Type: Static IP The following table describes the labels on this screen. Figure 10 Connection Type: Static IP LABEL DESCRIPTION Connection Type Select Static IP to give the NBG6615 a fixed, unique IP address. IP Address Select this option if you were given IP address and/or DNS server settings by the ISP. The fixed IP address should be in the same subnet as your broadband modem or router. Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask address in this field. Default Gateway Enter the gateway IP address provided by your ISP. DNS DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a computer before you can access it. The NBG6615 uses a system DNS server (in the order you specify here) to resolve domain names for DDNS and the time server. Enter the DNS server's IP address in this field. Cancel Click Cancel to exit the Wizard without saving. Back Click Back to return to the previous screen. Next Click Next to proceed to the next screen. 3.1.2 DHCP Client Select DHCP Client when your network administrator or ISP assigns your IP address dynamically. This is a connection type often used with cable modems. NBG6615's User's Guide 22
