hello
i bought a brand new router, but i can't navigate on internet.
i linked the FW to my pc using LAN port, and to my router using WAN port.

i use IPoA setting from my ISP. what can i do to navigate in internet? probably i have DHCP enabled but i don't see how to switch off him.
 
Solution
Check with support for the security device where it needs to be placed in the network. It likely needs to go between the modem and router, but maybe between the router and the computers.
What is line1 and line2? That does not describe anything. Use specific names of the products and what they do and how they are connected. That Zyxell box is a security gateway not sure why you are calling it an FW, that does not stand for anything that I can thing of that has to do with the device.

Need a lot more details about the setup to figure anything out. Did you contact the ISP to see what you need to do? Or Zyxell to make sure you configured it properly?
 
i receive 2 DSL lines. i'm going to configure my "Unified Security Gateway".
i would to configure it with a single line first, then i'll configure load balance function.

my router is configured with correct IP from my ISP.
now my Gateway ask me for the same data, but i don't know why, because it is not a router.
