Configuration
This section will show you how to configure your new D-Link Router using the web-based configuration utility.
Web-based Configuration Utility
Connect to the Router
To configure the WAN connection used by the Router it is first necessary to communicate with the Router through its management interface, which
is HTML-based and can be accessed using a web browser. The easiest way to make sure your computer has the correct IP settings is to configure
it to use the DHCP server in the Router. The next section describes how to change the IP configuration for a computer running a Windows operating system to be a DHCP client.
To access the configuration utility, open a web-browser such as Internet
Explorer and enter the IP address of the router (192.168.1.1).
Type “admin” for the User Name and “admin” in the Password field. If you
get a Page Cannot be Displayed error, please refer to the
Troubleshooting section for assistance.
To access the Wizard click the Wizard link.
WIZARD
Click the Wizard link to access the Wizard windows. To set up an ATM
PVC configuration, enter a Port Identifier in the PORT: field, a Virtual Path
Identifier in the VPI: field and a Virtual Channel Identifier in the VCI: field.
The VPI and VCI values should be provided by your ISP. This window
also allows you to enable QoS by ticking the Enable Quality of Service
check box. Click the Next button to continue.
WIZARD – CONNECTION TYPE
This window allows you to select the appropriate connection type. The
choices include PPP over ATM (PPPoA), PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE),
MAC Encapsulation Routing (MER), IP over ATM (IPoA), and Bridging
(default).
This window also allows you to use the drop-down menu to select the
desired Encapsulation Mode. Click the Next button to continue.

Click the PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) radio button on this window. This
window also allows you to use the drop-down menu to select the desired
Encapsulation Mode. Click the Next button to continue.
WIZARD – PPPoE
This window allows you to set the username and the password for your
PPP connection. This information is obtained from your ISP. Additional
settings on this window will also depend on your ISP. Click the Next
button to continue.
WIZARD – PPPoE
This window allows you to enable IGMP multicasting and WAN service.
Most users will want to leave the MTU value at the default setting unless
your ISP advises you to change it. Click the Next button to continue.
WIZARD – PPPoE
This window allows you to enter an IP address and subnet mask for the
LAN interface. In addition, you can either enable or disable the DHCP
server.
To enable the DHCP server, enter a starting IP address, an ending IP
address, and a subnet mask. You may also choose to change the default
value of the leased time. Click the Next button to continue.
WIZARD – PPPoE
This summary window allows you to confirm the settings you have just
made. Click the Save/Reboot button to save your new PPP over Ethernet
settings and restart the Router.
