8 Asanté FriendlyNET Internet Router with Firewall

2.1 Dynamic IP

This is a very popular type of connection for residential and small business cus-

tomers. Your Internet address settings are furnished dynamically by your ISP.

Characteristics: Cable or DSL modem.

Popular ISPs: Numerous, including Covad TeleSurfer (some plans), Earthlink

Cable and AT&T Broadband.

Tip: If you are unsure which WAN type to choose, try this one first.

Auto-reconnect

Since your network settings (including IP address) are only assigned to you on a

temporary basis, your ISP may disconnect you after a period of inactivity. Check

this box to have the router automatically reconnect your service.

Tip: If you are planning to host any servers (i.e., HTTP web servers), you should

order a static IP address from your ISP and configure the router for the static IP

address.

To save your settings, click on the Save and Restart Router buttons.
