NetComm NTC-790 Router User Manual


 
NOTE – It may be necessary to add a static route using the ‘Routing’ link. The PPTP gateway is the PPTP
server address and so in the static routes section under the ‘Routing’ link enter the PPTP server IP address
in the Gateway IP address box.
Example:
If the PPTP server address is 203.44.251.100 and the IP address of the local PPTP interface is 10.1.3.42
(i.e a 10.0.0.0 address) then in the static routes section enter the following:
10.0.0.0 in the destination IP address box
255.0.0.0 in the IP subnet mask box
203.44.251.100 in the Gateway IP address box.
1 in the metric box.
Editing the PPTP credentials
If you need to edit the PPTP credentials you need to disable the existing PPTP connection and then enter
the new credentials and re-enable the connection.
Disabling PPTP
If you want to completely disconnect both the PPP and PPTP interface from the network then it is best to
first disable the PPTP interface simply by clicking ‘disable’ and hitting ‘save’ then disabling the PPP
connection by clicking disable for the appropriate profile number in the ‘Data Connection’ page.
However, if you want to leave the PPTP enabled for future use then just disable the PPP connection only
using the ‘Data Connection’ page, then next time a PPP connection is enabled the PPTP interface will also
come up.
