40 WAN Access
The WAN Access menu allows you to configure your WAN (Internet) connection. When
subscribing to a broadband service, your Internet Service Provider (ISP) should provide
you information regarding the method by which you are connecting to the Internet.
The device can connect to the broadband service (WAN), using one of the following
methods:

Ethernet interface (copper or fiber cable), using connection methods such as
automatic IP address allocation or Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE). For
more information, see 'Configuring Ethernet WAN Interface' on page
535.

Symmetric High-Speed Digital Subscriber Line (SHDSL) connection using copper wire
pairs. The SHDSL WAN connection supports up to four copper wire pairs according to
G.991.2, acting as a remote-terminal CPE device. Both ATM and EFM modes are
supported. In the ATM mode, a variety of protocols are supported, including PPPoE,
PPPoA, and RFC 2684 in both bridged (Ethernet-over-ATM) and routed (IP-over-
ATM) variants. In the EFM mode, the SHDSL port functions as a logical Ethernet
device. For more information, see 'Configuring SHDSL WAN Interface' on page
537.
Note: The supported WAN connection methods depend on the installed Software
License Key. For installing a Software License Key, see 'Software License
Key' on page 644.
