I-Storm LAN Router ADSL For more detailed instructions on configuring and using the IStorm Lan Router ADSL, please refer to the online manual. Before beginning the configuration of the Router you have to know the parameters of your subscription ADSL. There are five ways ─ PPPoE, PPPoA, RFC1483 routed, IPoA, RFC1483 Bridge─ for the device to have a public IP address and then to access Internet. You have to check with your ISP about which way is adopted. VPI/VCI: Consult the telephone company to get the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) numbers. The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255 and for the VCI is 32 to 65535. The default value VPI is 0 and VCI is 32. For BT (VPI=0, VCI=38) and for KC ((VPI=1, VCI=50). NAT: The NAT feature allows multiple-user Internet access for the cost of a single IP account. If you need to have a public server or a public network, NAT has to be disabled. Encapsulation Method: Be sure to use the encapsulation method (LLC/SNAP or VC MUX) required by your ISP. Gather the information as illustrated in the following table and keep it for reference. PPPoE
