DIR-100 Ethernet Broadband Router

Static IP Address

When the Router is configured to use Static IP Address assignment for the Internet connection, you must

manually assign a global IP Address, Subnet Mask, and ISP Default Gateway IP address. Most users will

also need to configure DNS server IP settings. Follow the instruction below to configure the Router to use

Static IP Address assignment for the Internet connection.

Static IP Address connection setup menu

To configure a Static IP type Internet connection, follow these steps:

1. Select the Static IP option from the My Internet Connection is: pull-down menu.

2. Under the Static IP heading, type IP address information provided by your ISP, type an IP Address,

Subnet Mask and ISP Gateway Address. The Primary DNS Address will be normally be

required, the Secondary DNS Address is used for a back up DNS server.

3. Some ISPs record the unique MAC address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter when you first

access their network. This can prevent the Router (which has a different MAC address) from being

allowed access to the ISPs network (and the Internet). To clone the MAC address of your computer’s

Ethernet adapter, type in the MAC address in the MAC Address field and click the Clone MAC

Address button.

4. Leave the MTU value at the default setting (default = 1500) unless you have specific reasons to

change this (see table below for more information).

5. Click on the Save Settings button to save and apply the new Internet connection settings.
