   1. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) – This is the automatic configuration mode by getting network configurations from a DHCP server.  
   2. Static IP Configuration – This option allows the user to configure each IP parameters manually
   3. PPPoE (Default mode) – This option is often used by users who connect the device to a broadband modem or router. You need to configure the username and password provided by your service provider.
