Wireless Settings
64-bit Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
The Wireless Settings screen allows you to take advantage of the Wireless Cable/DSL
Router’s wireless capabilities.
The 64-bit eencryption requires 4 fields of 5 hexadecimal pairs. (A hexadecimal digit
consists of alphanumeric characters in the range of 0-9 or A-F). An example of 64-bit
encryption would be: 4E-23-3D-68-72. If you do create this key, make sure you enter
it in your Wireless PC Card exactly as you have it in the Wireless Cable/DSL Router.
128-bit Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
ESSID
(Default value set to ACTIONTEC) This is an arbitrary network name that you assign
to your wireless network. You may use alphanumeric characters (i.e.: A-Z, a-z, 0-9). It
is important that you set your Wireless PC Cards to the same ESSID value. (For the
Actiontec 802.11b Wireless PC Card the ESSID value should be the same as the SSID
value) This will enable the Wireless PC Cards to communicate with your Wireless
Cable/DSL Router.
The 128-bit encryption requires a single field of 13 hexadecimal pairs (A hexadecimal
digit consists of alphanumeric characters in the range 0-9 or A-F). An example of 128bit encryption would be: 3D-44-FE-6C-A1-EF-2E-D3-C4-21-74-5D-B1.If you do
create this key, make sure you enter it in your Wireless PC Card exactly as you have it
in the Wireless Cable/DSL Router.
Note: Do not use the 128-BIT WEP Key if your PC Card does not support it.
Channel
This assigns the frequency band in which the Wireless Cable/DSL Router can communicate at. In the United States you may use channels 1-11. (Default value set to 1)
Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
This is an encryption method used in the 802.11b standard, to ensure data security over
your wireless network. The Actiontec Wireless Cable/DSL Router offers three levels of
encryption.If you do not require the encryption, it is recommended that you keep this
feature disabled (off). It is not required for wireless operation, and can reduce network
performance since each piece of data must be encrypted and decrypted.

LAN IP Address
DHCP Server Configuration
This is the IP Address of the Wireless Cable/DSL Router as seen on the internal LAN.
Beginning IP Address
It is recommended that you keep the default settings, but if you need to change them
then be sure to verify the DHCP Server range is within the same subnet.
Enter the IP Address for the DHCP Server to start when assigning IP Address. It is recommended that you keep the default settings of 192.168.0.2
DHCP Server
Ending IP Address
Your Wireless Cable/DSL Router has a built-in Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) Server that can automatically assign an IP Address to each computer on your
network.
Enter the IP Address for the DHCP Server to end when assigning IP Address. It is recommended that you keep the default settings of 192.168.0.254
DNS Server 1
Enter the primary DNS provided by your ISP. You may keep the default settings if you
wish.
DNS Server 2
Enter the secondary DNS provided by your ISP. You may keep the default settings if you
wish.
It is highly recommended that you keep the default DHCP Server settings. If you wish
to disable your DHCP Server, select Off. You will need to ensure that the IP Address of
your computers are in the same subnet as that of the Wireless Cable/DSL Router. To be
in the same subnet, the IP address must begin with the same numbers for the first 3
fields. (Example: 192.168.0.1 would mean your IP address would have to be
192.168.0.x, with x being 2 - 254.)

This will bring up your Wireless Cable/DSL Router menu or password prompt (if
a password has been set.
Port Forwarding
Because the Wireless Cable/DSL Router is acting as a firewall for your network, some
programs may not be able to communicate over the Internet without some additional
configuration. This feature is useful if you want to host a webserver or ftp server on your
private LAN. You will need to open each port that your programs need and specify to a
specific IP (Computer). It is recommended that if you need to open more than 10 ports
at once to use DMZ hosting instead. For a listing of commonly used programs and their
port numbers refer to Appendix C or the Actiontec web site.
Remote Management
DMZ Hosting
The Remote Management feature allows users to access the Wireless Cable/DSL Router
through the Internet. It is recommended that you do not alter the Remote Management
properties. For security reasons, it is disabled by default.
DMZ hosting is used to support online gaming and Internet confrencing services. These
programs usually require multiple ports to be open on the Wireless Cable/DSL Router,
making the rest of your network vulnerable to the Internet. DMZ hosting will symbolically place the designated computer (By IP address) outside of the Wireless Cable/DSL

On the main screen of your Wireless Cable/DSL Router you will find a section called
Utilities. This section allows you to view your Web Activity Log, Restore Default
Settings and Upgrade your Firmware. Follow the steps in each section below to use these
features:
The MAC address is an identifier that is specific to each device that connects to any
network, simular to a fingerprint for the Internet. Some ISP’s require this information
to validate a computers permission to be on the network. If your ISP requires this information, you will need to determine the MAC address of the computer that was originally configured for your service (Appendix D has instructions to determine the MAC
address).
Web Activity Log
This allows you to view the websites that each computer connected to your Wireless
Cable/DSL Router, has viewed.

Troubleshooting
There is a LAN connection failure to the Wireless Cable/DSL Router.
Make sure that the Wireless Cable/DSL Router is properly installed, the LAN connections are correct and the power is on. Next, confirm that your PC and the
Wireless Access Point and Gateway are on the same network segment. If you are
not sure, let the PC get the IP address automatically by initiating the DHCP function. Then, verify that your PC is using an IP address within the default range of
192.168.1.2 to 198.168.1.XXX. If your PC is not using an IP address within the
range then it will not be compatible with the Gateway. Finally, the Subnet Mask
must be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the Gateway. In the Gateway you can check
this by clicking on Status on the Wireless Cable/DSL Routers start page.
I am unable to browse through the Wireless Cable/DSL Router.

Router then re-plug it.
6. Wait for the power LED to stop blinking and become a steady green.
First, make sure that both ends of the power adapter and network cables are properly connected and the status LEDs on the front panel are infact working properly. Then, if you are using Windows 95 or 98, check your computer’s TCP/IP setup:
On your desktop click Start, then select Run, type winpcfg in the given box and
then hit Enter. Your computer should have an IP address of 192.168.XXX (the
“XXX” value could be from 2 to 254.) Also the Subnet Mask should be
255.255.255.0. Then, check the Wireless Cable/DSL Router settings to verify that
they are the same as your computer. You can do this by clicking on Status on the
Wireless Cable/DSL Routers start page.
I get a time out error when I enter a URL or IP Address,
First, verify that all your computers are working properly. Then make sure that all
your IP settings are correct. If you are still having trouble make sure that the
Wireless Cable/DSL Router is on and connected properly. If it is connected properly open up your web browser and access the Wireless Cable/DSL Router’s start
page. Verify that the Wireless Cable/DSL Router settings are correct by clicking on
Status. If this too is properly configured then check your Cable or DSL modem by
attempting to connect to the Internet.
I am unable to get an IP Address from my Cable or DSL Modem.
First, make sure that your Wireless Cable/DSL Router is properly connected to
your computer and is plugged in. Then, shut off your Cable or DSL modem and
wait a few seconds. Turn it back on, wait for it to go through its self test and then
check for the IP Address. Then, verify that your modem is DHCP compatible. Go
to the Wireless Cable/DSL Router’s web based utility and make sure you entered
the user name and password for either your DSL or Cable modem.

Glossary
Access Point
An access point is a device that allows wireless clients to connect to other wireless clients
and it acts as a bridge between wireless clients and a wired network’ like Ethernet.
Wireless clients can be moved anywhere within the coverage area of the access point and
still connect with eachother. If connected to an Ethernet network, the access point monitors Ethernet traffic and forwards appropriate Ethernet messages to the wireless network, while also monitoring wireless client radio traffic and forwarding wireless client
messages to the Ethernet LAN.
ESSID (Extended Service Set Identifier)
You must have the same ESSID entered into the gateway and each of its wireless clients.
The ESSID is a unique identifier for your wireless network.
Ethernet
Ethernet networks are connected by cables and hubs, and move data around. This is a
standard for computer networks.
Firewall
A Firewall prevents anyone outside of your network from accessing your computer and
possibly damaging or viewing your files.
Channel
Gateway
The home wireless gateway allows you to choose different radio channels in the wireless
spectrum. A gateway operates within the 2.4 GHz spectrum and a channel is within a
FCC specified range, simular to any radio channel.
A central device that manages all the data traffic of your network, as well as to the
Internet.
Client
IP Address (Internet Protocol)
A client is the desktop or mobile PC that is connected to your network.
An IP address consists of a series of four numbers separated by periods, that identifies a
unique Internet computer host.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
ISP Gateway Address (see ISP for definition)
This automatically assigns an IP address for every computer on your network.
DNS Server Address (Domain Name System)
DNS allows Internet host computers to have a domain name and one or more IP
addresses. A DNS server keeps a database of host computers and their respective domain
names and IP addresses, so that when a user enters a domain name into the internet
browser, the user is sent to the proper IP address. The DNS server address used by the
computers on your home network is the location of the DNS server your ISP has
assigned.
DSL Modem (Digital Subscriber Line)
A DSL modem uses your existing phone lines to transmit data at high speeds.
Encryption
This provides wireless data transmissions with a level of security.
