Positioning Your RSGu3500 for Optimal Wireless Performance
To achieve the best wireless performance, review these guidelines before deciding where to place your
RSGu3500:
•
•
Connect at least one computer through a wired Ethernet connection.
•
Placing the RSGu3500 in a higher location, such as on top of a cabinet, helps disperse the signal cleanly,
especially to upper floors.
•
If possible, position your RSGu3500 in direct line of sight with other home network devices using a wireless
connection.
•
Avoid placing the RSGu3500 next to large, solid objects like computer cases, monitors, walls, fireplaces, etc.
This helps the signal penetrate more cleanly.
•
Other wireless devices, such as televisions, radios, microwaves, or 2.4 GHz cordless telephones, can
interfere with the signal. Keep these devices away from the RSGu3500.
•
Mirrors, especially those that are silver-coated, can reduce transmission performance.
Placing your RSGu3500 in the physical center of your network is best, because its antenna sends out signal
in all directions.

Enable DHCP Server
If selected, the DHCP server on the residential gateway assigns IP addresses to the
computers and other hosts on your network, if they have DHCP enabled (see “Configuring
TCP/IP” on page 47). By default, the residential gateway DHCP server is enabled.
If there is another DHCP server running on your network (on another router), you must
disable one of the DHCP servers.
Start IP
Sets the first IP address assigned by the DHCP server, in dotted-decimal format. It must be
greater than the IP address value of the residential gateway. For example, if the IP address
of the residential gateway is 192.168.15.1 (default), the starting IP address must be
192.168.15.2 (or higher).
End IP
Sets the final IP address assigned by the DHCP server, in dotted-decimal format. It cannot
exceed the subnet limit of 254. For example, the default is 192.168.15.254. If the DHCP
server runs out of DHCP addresses, users cannot access network resources. If this happens,
increase the End IP (to the limit of 254) or reduce the Lease Time.
If you change Start IP or End IP, be sure they are in the range specified by the Subnet IP
Address and Netmask. For example, if the residential gateway IP address is 192.168.15.1
(the default) and you set Start IP and End IP to 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.100 respectively,
computers with DHCP enabled cannot communicate with the residential gateway.
Lease Time
Sets the time, in seconds, that a network computer remains connected to the residential
gateway using its current assigned IP address. At the end of this time, the DHCP server
renews the lease or assigns the computer a new IP address. The default is 3600 seconds (1
hour). The maximum is 999999 seconds (about 278 hours).

Relay IP
Server and Relay Off
If selected, the residential gateway forwards requests and responses between the computers
on your network (the DHCP clients) and the DHCP server you chose to use for your network.
If you select Enable DHCP Relay, type the IP address of the DHCP server in dotted-decimal
format.
If selected, you must carefully configure the IP address, Subnet Mask, and DNS settings of
every host on your network. Do not assign the same IP address to more than one host. Your
residential gateway must be on the same subnet as the other hosts.

Multicast
Multicasting is a form of limited broadcast. UDP is used to send datagrams to all computers in a host group, one or
more hosts identified by the same destination IP address. The following statements apply to host groups:
•
Anyone can join or leave a host group.
•
There are no restrictions on the host location.
•
There are no restrictions on the number of members that may belong to a host group.
•
A host may belong to multiple host groups.
•
Non-members can send UDP datagrams to the host group.
Multicasting is useful when the same data needs to be sent to more than one device; for example, if one device is
responsible for acquiring data that many other devices need. Using multicasting uses less network bandwidth than
sending the same data to individual devices.
Multicasting also enables you to receive multicast video streams from multicast servers. The residential gateway
supports an Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) proxy that handles IGMP messages. When enabled,
the residential gateway acts as a proxy for a LAN host making requests to join and leave multicast groups.

Enables RIP. Any RIP-enabled router:
• Sends automatic update packets containing its routing table periodically (every 30 seconds)
• Adds, deletes, or modifies routes in its routing table based on periodic updates from other routers
• Responds to requests for its routing table
Protocol
Sets the RIP version:
• RIP v1 (UDP protocol)
• RIP v2 (multicast protocol)
• RIP v1 compatible (UDP protocol with multicast format)
Routers using RIP v1 or a compatible protocol can communicate with each other, but not to routers
using RIP v2.
Enable
Password
(Optional) RIP v2 enables simple plain-text password-based authentication for RIP packets. It is
disabled if RIP v1 is selected.
Password
The password can have up to 16 characters.
Interface
Normally, when it is enabled on a router, RIP dynamically provides routes on all configured interfaces.
On the RSGu3500, you can select which routes are distributed through the network:
• LAN — Sets the direction in which RIP messages are sent on the LAN interface
• WAN — Sets the direction in which RIP messages are sent on the WAN interface
The options for LAN and WAN are:
• Both — receive and send updates to the routing table to other routers on the interface
• In — receive but do not send routing updates on that interface
• Out — send but do not receive routing updates on the interface
• None — do not send or receive routing updates through the interface

Establishing Security for Your Wireless LAN
To prevent unauthorized viewing of data transmitted over your WLAN, you must encrypt your wireless
transmissions.
If all of your wireless clients support WPA encryption, we recommend using WPA instead of WEP. The benefits of
using WPA:
•
Provides a much stronger encryption and is more secure
•
Provides authentication to ensure that only authorized users can log on to your WLAN
•
It is much easier to configure
•
It uses a standard algorithm on all compliant products to generate a key from a textual passphrase

Frequently Asked Questions
If you do not understand a term or abbreviation, check the Glossary.
What does the Motorola RSGu3500 Residential Gateway do?
The RSGu3500 Residential Gateway is a stand-alone media terminal adapter (S-MTA) containing a home
router:
•
As an S-MTA, it converts analog voice signals to and from a standard telephone to digital data that can
be transmitted through a broadband connection across the Internet. It provides an alternate means to
make voice calls.
•
Its built-in router provides full network connectivity, a firewall, and VPN passthrough.
Will the RSGu3500 Residential Gateway work with a cable modem or DSL modem?
Yes. The RSGu3500 Residential Gateway supports DHCP, which is specified for DOCSIS® cable modems,
and PPPoE, which is used by most DSL providers.
Can I operate a virtual private network (VPN) application behind the RSGu3500?
Yes. The RSGu3500 Residential Gateway supports IPSec and PPTP, the most common VPN protocols.
Can I play online games through my RSGu3500?
By default, the residential gateway blocks all unsolicited messages to the computer or local network as a
standard security measure. However, for online games that require some unsolicited messages to be
transmitted through the residential gateway, you can specify ports and IP addresses on which to allow
unsolicited messages. The RSGu3500 enables you to set up virtual servers or a DMZ.
How do I configure the RSGu3500?
Most people can send and receive calls immediately after completing Installation! You can configure your
home or office network through a GUI using a connected computer configured to obtain its IP address using
DHCP. Or, you can configure the computer statically to 192.168.15.xxx (xxx is from 2 to 254), subnet mask
255.255.255.0, and default gateway 192.168.15.1.
What is included with the built-in router?
The RSGu3500 supports a firewall, RIP, port triggers, advanced ALGs such as RSVP, POP3, SNMP, and
streaming media. No separate routers are needed.
Is any Quality of Service (QoS) implemented on the RSGu3500 Residential Gateway?
Although VoIP service is typically best-effort, the RSGu3500 provides upstream voice prioritization to ensure
that upstream voice data has priority over other Web data. This ensures good voice quality even during heavy
upstream data transfers, such as e-mail synchronization or file sharing.

This glossary defines terms and abbreviations used in this manual.
10/100Base-T
See Ethernet.
adapter
broadband
A device or card that connects a computer, printer, or other peripheral device to the network or to
some other device. An Ethernet adapter connects a computer to the LAN.
High-speed telecommunication over a wide range of frequencies, typically 256 Kbps or faster.
Broadband enables more information to be transmitted in less time. The most common broadband
service types available to homes and small-offices are cable modem and DSL. Both cable modem
and DSL are much faster than a traditional dial-up Internet connection.
broadband
provider
If you have a cable modem, the cable company from which you subscribe to high-speed data
service. If you have a DSL modem, the telephone company from which you subscribe to DSL
service.
cable modem
A device enabling a broadband connection to the Internet over cable television lines. It requires a
subscription for high-speed data service from your local cable provider.
coaxial cable
(coax)
A type of wire consisting of a center wire surrounded by insulation and a grounded shield of braided
wire traditionally used mainly to carry cable television signals. The shield minimizes electrical and
radio frequency interference.
default gateway A designated router that forwards all traffic not addressed to a host on the local subnet.
DHCP
A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server dynamically assigns IP addresses to client hosts on
an IP network. DHCP eliminates the need to manually assign static IP addresses by “leasing” an
IP address and subnet mask to each client. It enables the automatic reuse of unused IP addresses.
The RSGu3500 can simultaneously be a DHCP client and a DHCP server:
• A DHCP server assigns a WAN IP address to your RSGu3500.
• The RSGu3500 contains a built-in DHCP server that assigns private IP addresses to each
computer on its LAN.
UNCONTROLLED DOCUMENT
DMZ
A “de-militarized zone” is one or more hosts logically located between a private LAN and the
Internet. A DMZ prevents direct access by outside users to private data. (The term comes from the
geographic buffers located between some conflicting countries such as North and South Korea.) In a
typical small DMZ configuration, the DMZ host receives requests from private LAN users to access
external web sites and initiates sessions for these requests. The DMZ host cannot initiate a session
back to the private LAN. Internet users outside the private LAN can access only the DMZ host. You
can use a DMZ to set up a web server or for gaming without exposing confidential data.
DOCSIS
The Data-Over-Cable Service Interface Specification define a standard interface for cable modems
to deliver data between a cable network and computer systems. Euro-DOCSIS is DOCSIS adapted
for use in Europe.
DNS
The Domain Name System is the Internet system for converting domain names to IP addresses. A
DNS server contains a table matching domain names such as Internetname.com to IP addresses
such as 192.169.9.1. When you access the Web, a DNS server translates the URL displayed on the
browser to the destination website IP address. The DNS lookup table is a distributed Internet
database; no one DNS server lists all domain-to-IP address matches.
domain name
A unique name, such as motorola.com, that maps to an IP address. Domain names are typically
much easier to remember than IP addresses.
dotted-decimal
format
Method of representing an IP address or subnet mask using four decimal numbers called octets.
Each octet represents eight bits.
In a class C IP address, the octets are “network.network.network.host.” The first three octets
together represent the network address and the final octet is the host address. In the RSGu3500
LAN default configuration, 192.168.15 represents the network address. In the final octet, the host
address can be from 2 to 254.
To copy a file from one computer or other network device to another. You can use the Internet to
download files from a server to your home computer. Your residential gateway downloads its
configuration file and firmware.
