6 Chapter 2 Setting up the GatewaySetting up the Gateway 2Before you install the gateway, find an appropriate location for it. Set up the gateway near the main computer or any other device that will connect to it through the wired Ethernet ports.The gateway also serves as a wireless access point, so you should consider the wireless network when choosing the location for the gateway. Consider the following when determining the location of the gateway:•Place the gateway at least 5 ft (1.5 m) from cordless phones, microwave ovens, or other electronic devices to avoid potential interference, and at least 6 in (15 cm) from your television to avoid audio hissing or static.•Place the gateway in an open area to minimize interference from its surroundings. Wireless signal strength is much stronger in an open area than an area with obstructions. In a single-story building, place the gateway as high and as close to each wireless device as possible.•Keep the gateway away from large metal objects. Metal objects can reflect or obstruct signals, which can negatively impact wireless signal quality.•Place the gateway in an open area to allow for proper ventilation.•Keep the gateway away from water sources like water coolers or aquariums.Note: We recommend that you use the included stand to install the gateway vertically. This prevents things from being stacked on top of it, which can block vents and cause the gateway to overheat.

Click Save.Configuring LAN settingsTypically, your Internet service provider automatically assigns and configures an IP address when the gateway connects to the Internet. Advanced users can use a static IP address that allows them to run services like file servers or mail servers. Service providers typically offer static IP addresses as an extra service.Change these settings only if you are familiar with networking concepts.

20 Chapter 3 Configuring the GatewayConfiguring DHCPDHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows network addresses to be allocated dynamically as needed. The gateway can be both a DHCP client and DHCP server. The gateway is a DHCP client because it obtains an IP address from the service provider over the Internet. The gateway is a DHCP server because it assigns IP addresses to the devices in your home network.If you change the local network IP address range, you must renew the DHCP lease on devices connected to the home network and manually reconfigure all devices configured with static IP addresses.1. Open the gateway home page at http://192.168.1.254.2. Click the Settings tab, then the LAN tab.3. Click DHCP.4. For DHCP Network Range, select an IP address range or select Configure manually to set up a custom range for the DHCP IP address pool.5. If you selected Configure manually, enter the following information:•Router Address. The LAN IP address of the gateway.•Subnet Mask. The subnet mask of the gateway (default: 255.255.255.0).•First DHCP Address. The first IP address in the DHCP IP address pool to be assigned on the local network.•Last DHCP Address. The last IP address in the DHCP IP address pool to be assigned on the local network.6. For DHCP Lease Time, enter the number of hours a device can use an assigned IP address before it expires.7. For New Device DHCP Pool, select Private Network or Public Network. Use Public IP addresses only with DMZplus or a secondary subnet that allows you to have public IP addresses routed through the device.8. Click Save.Allocating IP addressesYou can allocate specific IP addresses to devices that are configured with DHCP, and map devices to particular static IP addresses. For Internet public hosting of application or servers associated with static addresses, you can map a device to a specific public static IP address or to the next unassigned address from the public pool. The default public IP device mapping is to the Router WAN IP address.Alternatively, you can configure static public or private IP addresses on the devices themselves. Static IP addresses on devices override settings on this page.1. Open the gateway home page at http://192.168.1.254.2. Click the Settings tab, then click the LAN tab.3. Click IP Address Allocation. The page shows the devices in your network.

Chapter 3 Configuring the Gateway 23Allowing all applications (DMZplus)DMZplus is a special firewall mode that is used for hosting applications. When in the DMZplus mode, the designated computer:•Appears as if it is directly connected to the Internet.•Has all unassigned TCP and UDP ports opened and pointed to it.•Can receive unsolicited network traffic from the Internet.Use DMZplus mode with caution. A computer in DMZplus mode is less secure because all available ports are open and all incoming Internet traffic is directed to this computer. 1. Open the gateway home page at http://192.168.1.254.2. Click the Settings tab, then click the Firewall tab.3. Click Applications, Pinholes and DMZ.4. Select the computer that you want to put in DMZplus mode.If the computer you want to select is unlisted because it is powered off and the Hide inactive devices option is enabled, you can select it if it is on the same network and you know its IP address. Enter the IP address and click Choose.5. Select Allow all applications (DMZplus mode).6. Click Save.7. Confirm that the computer you selected is configured for DHCP. If it is not, configure it for DHCP. See “Configuring DHCP” on page 20.8. Restart the computer. When the computer restarts, it receives a special IP address from the gateway and all unassigned TCP and UDP ports are forwarded to it. To stop DMZplus mode on a particular computer, select it and then select Maximum protection.
