WAN_TYPE

Description

Get or Set WAN connection type. Three types, Dynamic, Static and PPPoE, are supported.

In Dynamic connection type, the device will try to get the IP/Netmask/Gateway/DNS settings from a DHCP server.

In Static connection type, the device will use WAN_IP, WAN_NETMASK and WAN_GATEWAY to configure its WAN port.

In PPPoE connection type, the device will try to establish the PPP connection. The WAN_PPPOE_USERNAME and WAN_PPPOE_PASSWORD will be used for authentication.

If the CHANNEL=n was set with this URL to the Multi-Channel device, this URL will be treated as read-only command and the Router's WAN connection type will be returned.
