LAN Connection Example 12LAN Connection Example To configure the device via web browser, at least one properly-configured PC must be connected to the LAN port (connected directly or through an external hub/switch to the LAN port of the device). The configuration can also be performed on a wireless client station (as Network 2 on Connection Figure 2). On Ethernet Client To access the Broadband Home Router via the Ethernet interface, the host computer must install TCP/IP protocol: Step 1 Choose a client PC and set the IP as 192.168.0.x (x is between 2 and 254) and the gateway as 192.168.0.1 to be on the same subnet with the Broadband Home Router, whose default IP address is 192.168.0.1. Step 2 Start up your browser and type 192.168.0.1 as the address to enter the web-based manager. Step 3 Select the connection type (Bridge, Obtain an IP address automatically, PPPoE or Specify an IP address) which gets the WAN IP address and dials up to the ISP. You should choose the type according to the device that the WAN port connects to. When the connection is established the client PCs can access the Internet or the LAN. Note 1. The Broadband Home Router is configured with the default IP address of 192.168.0.1 and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. As the DHCP server is Enabled by default, the Broadband Home Router can assign an IP address to the host PC for initial configuration. That means, if the host PC sets its TCP/IP to obtain an IP address automatically, this DHCP client should be able to get an IP address and access the Broadband Home Router. 2. If you select ‘Bridge’ as the WAN connection type, the Broadband Home Router will act as a two-port Ethernet bridge device . On Wireless Client Step 1 Install the wireless card driver and configure the SSID setting on the client computer to the default SSID: IEEE802.11 LAN. Step 2 Check that the TCP/IP protocol is installed on your wireless client PC. (Refer to “TCP/IP Configuration” section.) Step 3 Set the IP as 192.168.0.x (x is between 2 and 254) and the gateway as 192.168.0.1 to be on the same subnet with the Broadband Home Router, whose default IP address is 192.168.0.1. Step 4 Start up your browser and type 192.168.0.1 as the address to enter the web-based manager. Step 5 If necessary, you could change the SSID from the web page: Advanced>wireless (refer to Wireless Setting section).
Getting started 13Step 6 If you change SSID in step 5, all wireless client stations must use the same SSID as the Broadband Home Router. Step 7 Then click Apply. Step 8 Execute Save and Restart. Note If you have multiple PCs on the LAN, you may enable DHCP server function. The Broadband Home Router implements a built-in DHCP server, which assigns IP addresses to the clients PCs on the LAN .For detailed settings please refer to the DHCP setting under LAN Setting section. For the wireless-interfaced station, you need to set its SSID to the Broadband Home Router’s default SSID value and disable the WEP encryption.

Software setup 33Basic Configuration Easy Setting This page allows you to specify how the WAN port of the router connects to your ISP’s server. There are four types of connection ways for you to select from. Please choose your connection mode from the drop-down list as required by your ISP. The default setting is PPPoE. PPPoE: PPP over Ethernet is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the Internet over an always-on connection by simulating a dial-up connection. With PPPoE the client does not set a static IP address, instead an IP address is assigned dynamically whenever the client access to the Internet. For detailed settings please refer to advanced “WAN Setting”. 1. Enter the user ID (user name) and password provide by your Internet service provider. 2. Then select the connection type as required. (For detailed description please refer to advanced “WAN setting”.) 3. Click “apply” button. 4. Press connect / disconnect button to block the connection or reconnect to Internet. Obtain an IP address automatically: The WAN IP address and the default gateway IP address is assigned by the ISP or DHCP server of another subnet or xDSL/cable modem. ( If the modem system has DHCP server capability, the Broadband Home Router can act as a DHCP client and receive its WAN IP address and subnet mask from the modem.) Specify an IP address: If your ISP has assigned a fixed permanent IP address for you, you can choose this connection mode.
341. Enter the fix IP address, subnet mask and gateway IP address provide by your ISP. 2. You can set up to three DNS servers’ IP addresses here for auxiliary. 3. Click “apply” button. Bridge: By selecting “Bridge” mode you enable bridging over the WAN port. The router can bridge the packets from your local network to the remote LAN over the WAN port. Note The Bridge mode is commonly used on the LAN to LAN architecture.
Software setup 35Advanced Configuration LAN Setting This page allows you to define the IP address over the LAN interface. IP Address: Allows you to specify the private IP address on the device’s LAN interface. By default, the IP address and subnet mask is 192.168.0.1 and 255.255.255.0. It is recommended NOT to change the default settings. Note If you have changed the LAN IP address, you will need to correspondingly change the IP address of the DHCP server as well as its pool address range. If you didn’t do that, the DHCP client will not be able to access the router. Enable Network Address Translation (NAT): If you apply for only one public IP address from your ISP and the multiple client PCs need to access the Internet, you should enable NAT function. NAT translates a private IP within one network to a public IP address, either a static or dynamic one. By default, the NAT function is enabled. DHCP Server: Allows you to enable or disable the DHCP function. DHCP server is enabled by default. When you instruct the router to act as a DHCP server, it assigns dynamic IP addresses to your PCs (DHCP clients) whenever they request for IP information. The DHCP server “leases” the IP addresses from a defined pool for a specified amount of time to the PCs. DHCP helps system administrators to centrally manage the assignment and distribution of IP information to PCs on the LAN.
36 DHCP lease time: Specify the time that a network device can lease a private IP address before the Broadband Home Router reassigning the IP address. By default, it is 1 day/ 0 hour/ 0 minutes. Pool address (from…to…): When you check the box to enable DHCP server function, you should give an available range of IP addresses (e.g. 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254) that can be assigned to PCs on the LAN. PCs on the LAN will use the assigned IP addresses to access the Broadband Home Router through Ethernet. Default Gateway: You can specify the address of the default gateway for PCs on the LAN from one of the following options: 1. Router IP address: Use the LAN port IP address of the Broadband Home Router. 2. Specify an IP address: Manually specify the IP address of the gateway for PCs on the LAN. 3. None: If you select this option there no default gateway is required. Note If you set the default gateway to “None”, the system will not be able to access the Internet. It can only access the local area network. DNS Server notification: Set up the IP address of the DNS (Domain Name System) server. The DNS server address will be passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address. The DHCP clients use the DNS to map a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa. You can set DNS server from one of the following options: 1. Router IP address: Let the Broadband Home Router relay DNS automatically. 2. Specify an IP address: Manually specify the IP address of the DNS server. You are allowed to specify two DSN servers. 3. None: If you select this option there no default DNS server is required.. Note If DNS IP is left as 0.0.0.0, then you should specify the DNS on each client PC.
Software setup 37 WAN Setting This section shows you detailed description over the WAN connections setting. The Router provides four connection type for you choice. Common Default Gateway: This function allows you to set up the default gateway on the WAN interface of your router. You can check the Specify an IP Address box and enter the gateway IP address provided by your ISP. DNS IP address: Set up the IP address of the primary and secondary DNS (Domain Name System) server. The DNS server address will be passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address. The DHCP clients use the DNS to map a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa. NTP Function: Allows you to enable NTP (Network Time Protocol) function and maintain Date and Time on LCD by NTP Server.. If you have designated time server to synchronize the date and time of network computers, you can check Specify an IP Address and then enter the IP address of the time server. Bridge: By selecting “Bridge” mode you enable bridging over the WAN port. The router can bridge the packets from your local network to the remote LAN over the WAN port. Obtain an IP address automatically: With this option selected, the Broadband Home Router will get a dynamic WAN IP address
38whenever it connects to the remote server or ISP. If your Broadband Home Router’s WAN port is connecting to a cable modem and the modem gets a dynamic IP from the ISP, you will need to use this connection method. Specify an IP address: If your ISP provides you with a fixed IP for the WAN port, enter the IP address in this field. PPPoE: PPP over Ethernet is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the Internet over an always-on connection by simulating a dial-up connection. User Name/Password: The user name and password to access the remote server or ISP. MAX Idle Time: This value specifies the idle minutes that elapse before the LAN Home Route automatically disconnects the PPP session. If no traffic is passing through during the span of time your specified, the PPP session is terminated. Dial On Demand: If checked, under disconnected status, if any client PC sends out request for connection, the Broadband Home Router will dial the ISP automatically. In this case, if the system administrator wants to disconnect the PPP session, just click the Disconnect button. Keep Alive: When enabled, a PPP session will still keep on line even when the idle time is passed. Connect: This button allows you to connect instantly without having to restart the device. To make the connection, you may just click the Connect button without having to click Apply button. Service Name: Enter the name of your PPPoE service here. Access Concentrator: Enter the access concentrator of your PPPoE service here as required by your ISP.
Software setup 39 Wireless Setting The Broadband Home Router provides wireless connectivity within a range of several hundreds feet and acts as a bridge between your wired LAN and wireless PCs. This section shows you how to configure the wireless LAN setting. SSID (Service Set Identity): A name that uniquely identifies a domain. All clients that want to communicate with the Broadband Home Router must have the same SSID as it. Desired Channel: The frequency in which the radio links are about to be established. Usually the clients will scan the whole operable channels and then select the desired communications channel automatically. Privacy Security The privacy security function can enhance media security by encryption technology. All clients must set the same encryption key to maintain the tightened communication with the Broadband Home Router properly. To turn on the privacy function: Open System With open system authentication a wireless PC can join any network and receive any messages that are not encrypted. Shared Key With shared key authentication, only those PCs that possess the correct authentication key can join the network. By default IEEE 802.11 wireless devices operate in an Open System network. Encryption Key To enable WEP encryption function, select your encryption length as 64-bit or 128-bit. Either 64-bit or 128-bit WEP keys can be generated from user-defined characters or manual entry. To create with characters, select Char option and then enter the exact same WEP key for each
40wireless client. To use manual entry, check Hex option and then enter your WEP keys. WEP keys must be comprised of the hexadecimal characters (0-9, A-F, and a-f) and must contain 10 characters for 64-bit WEP Keys or 26 characters for 128-bit WEP keys. Configuring the SSID & Desired Channel. 1. On the page, if necessary you can edit the SSID. 2. Select the Desired Channel 3. You can select Shared Key and set the Encryption Key Length as 64-bit or 128-bit. 4. Click “Apply “. Routing Dynamic Routing Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is utilized as a means of exchanging routing information between routers. It helps the routers to determine optimal routes. This page allows you to enable/disable this function. By default, RIP is disabled with Disable selected. You are allowed to enable RIP over the LAN/WAN interface. Upon each interface, you can customize the RIP on Receive Mode and Transmit Mode respectively. Receive Mode: It incorporates the RIP information when receiving the RIP packets. Transmit Mode: It broadcasts the routing table. RIP Version: When enabling RIP, you can select the RIP version from RIPv1, RIPv2 or both (RIPv1 and RIPv2). Disable RIP: To disable RIP, just select Disable from the drop-down list.
Software setup 41Static Routing This page shows all the routing rules of data packets going through your Broadband Home Router if it runs in routing mode. Under normal circumstances, the router has adequate routing information after it has been configured for Internet access, and your don’t need to configure additional static routes. Unless your network is unusual case such as multiple routers or multiple IP subnets and you must configure static routes. For example, if the circumstances below apply to your network: 1. You have another subnet network in your network. 2. Your another network is 10.3.1.x. Then you need to create a static route. You should enter the destination IP address 10.3.1.x and gateway IP address 192.168.0.1 to commit the setting. When you first configure your router, you will find a default route created with your ISP as the gateway, and the second static route was created to your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. Select a Static Route: Firstly, select an existing static route or New Entry to edit its parameters. Click Delete if you want to delete it. Network IP Address: The destination IP address of the network where data packets are to be sent. Netmask: The subnet mask of the destination IP address. Gateway IP address: The next IP address where data packets are to be sent for the destination you specify in previous fields. This is to be configured only when the LAN interface is configured as route; otherwise leave it as 0.0.0.0. Delete entry: Select a required entry to delete it from static route table.
42Filtering The Broadband Home Router uses filters to determine if a data packet should be passed. You can specify your filter rule on the source side and destination side. Setting the IP Packet Filter This page allows you to add new IP packet filter and delete selected IP packet filter. To add a new filter rule, setting then press apply button. Otherwise, select a required entry to delete it. Select enable or disable option to decide whether to enable filter function. Note If you enable Filtering function, the filter table will display some filter entries predefined in your device by default. These entries (where source and destination IP are left as 0.0.0.0 and different service port) allow your network to use various Internet services. Note that if you delete any one of these predefined entry, the service type of entry that deletion will block the LAN PCs from accessing its corresponding service. If you want to filtering a specific computer from accessing certain Internet service or location, you should create additional filter rule. Protocol Type: It governs the information flow within a communications infrastructure. You may select the protocol from drop-down list and then enter the port number that identifies the service, e.g., web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21. Source IP address/subnet mask: If you wish to filter the packet originating from certain node, enter the IP address which identifies this device on the network. Then enter the subnet mask where the IP address belongs to. Destination IP address/subnet mask: If you wish to filter the packet destining for a certain mode, enter the IP address which identifies this device on the Internet. Then enter the subnet mask where the IP address belongs to. The field is disregarded if you leave it as 0.0.0.0. TCP Flags: when protocol type is set with TCP this section should be effective. Port Range: Enter the starting and ending port number that identify the service that you want to filter , e.g., web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21. Direction: Choose whether to filter the packets that are incoming (In Bound) or outgoing (Out Bound) on the interface. The action can be Allow or Block. Each data packet that enters the Broadband Home Router will undergo data filtering. Data packet is allowed to pass or not depending on whether a match is found.
Software setup 43 Example: If you want to filtering a specific network 192.168.0.10 from accessing the HTTP server at 220.189.78.21 you should add a filter attributes as below: Protocol type/as Source IP Destination IP Port Range Start/End InBound OutBound TCP/21 192.168.0.10 220.189.78.21 21/21 Allow Block *The packets matching the criteria will be blocked; those beyond these filtering rules can pass through the Broadband Home Router. If you also want to filtering corresponding service from Internet just need set Inbound to “Block”.
44 Forwarding The Broadband Home Router implements NAT to let your entire local network appear as a single machine to the Internet. The typical situation is that you have local servers for different services and you want to make them publicly accessible. With NAT applied, it will translate the internal IP addresses of these servers to a single IP address that is unique on the Internet. NAT function not only eliminates the need for multiple public IP addresses but also provides a measure of security for your LAN. When the router receives an incoming IP packet requesting for access to your local server, the router will recognize the service type according to the port number in this packet (e.g., port 80 indicates HTTP service and port 21 indicates FTP service). By specifying the port number, you tell the router which service should be forwarded to the local IP address you specify. Protocol: Select a protocol type used by the service that will be forwarded. TCP/IP Port: The Broadband Home Router supports port mapping function which translates a standard port number to a non-standard number. Incoming data packets sent to a specific IP port can be mapped to the port you specify. The most often used port numbers include: 21 (FTP ), 80 (HTTP), 23 (Telnet) and 25(SMTP) IP Address: Specify the internal IP address to which the packets are forwarded to. How to configure port forwarding: 1. Select the protocol type from the drop-down list. 2. Select a service in TCP /IP Port field and enter the port number you want to use. 3. Enter the IP address of the local server in the IP Address filed. 4. Click Apply button to commit the setting. If you are going to delete a forward entry, select it from the status filed to delete it.
Software setup 45DMZ A DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) separates an external network from directly referencing an internal network. With DMZ configuration, a DMZ host acts as a neutral zone between the private network and the outside network. For example, if you have a host providing online games or videoconferencing applications which are incompatible through NAT, you can specify its IP address here and then click “Apply” button. UPnP Universal plug and play (UPnP) is an architecture for pervasive peer to peer network connectivity of intelligent appliances, wireless devices and PCs of all form factors. It is designed to bring easy-to-use, flexible, standards-based connectivity to ad-hoc or unmanaged networks whether in the home, in a small business, public spaces, or attached to the Internet. To enable UPnP function, just check the Enable UPnP Function box and then click Apply button to activate the function.

50Glossary This chapter presents a more detailed description of the Broadband Home Router’s configuration parameters. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) When operates as a DHCP server, the Broadband Home Router assign IP addresses to the client PCs on the LAN. The client PCs “leases” these Private IP addresses for a user-defined amount of time. After the lease time expires, the private IP address is made available for assigning to other network devices. The DHCP IP address can be a single, fixed public IP address, an ISP assigned public IP address, or a private IP address. If you enable DHCP server on a private IP address, a public IP address will have to be assigned to the NAT IP address, and NAT has to be enabled so that the DHCP IP address can be translated into a public IP address. By this, the client PCs are able to access the Internet. LAN (Local Area Network) & WAN (Wide Area Network) A LAN is a computer network limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or floor of a building. A WAN, on the other hand, is an outside connection to another network or the Internet. The Ethernet side of the Broadband Home Router is called the LAN port. It is a twisted-pair Ethernet 10Base-T interface. A hub can be connected to the LAN port. More than one computers, such as server or printer, can be connected through this hub to the Broadband Home Router and composes a LAN. The WAN port of the Broadband Home Router composes the WAN interface, which supports PPP or RFC 1483 connecting to another remote DSL device of cable modem. Authentication and WEP Encryption The absence of a physical connection between nodes makes the wireless links vulnerable to eavesdropping and information theft. To provide a certain level of security , the IEEE 8002.11 standard has defined two types of authentication methods, open system and shared key. With open system authentication a wireless PC can join any network and receive any messages that are not encrypted. With shared key authentication, only those PCs that possess the correct authentication key can join the network. By default IEEE 802.11 wireless devices operate in an Open system network. Private IP Address Private IP addresses are also LAN IP addresses, but are considered “illegal” IP addresses to the Internet. They are private to an enterprise while still permitting full network layer connectivity between all hosts inside an enterprise as well as all public hosts of different enterprises. The Broadband Home Router uses private IP addresses by assigning them to the LAN that cannot be directly accessed by the Internet or remote server. To access the Internet, private network should have an agent to translate the private IP address to public IP address. RIP (Routing Information Protocol) RIP is a routing protocol that uses the distance-vector routing algorithms to calculate least-hops routes to a UDP (User Data gram Protocol) UDP is a connectionless transport service that dispenses with the reliability services provided by TCP. UDP gives applications a direct
Glossary 51destination. It is used on the Internet and is common in the NetWare environment. It exchanges routing information with other routers. It includes V1, V2 and V1&V2, which controls the sending and receiving of RIP packets over Ethernet. interface with IP and the ability to address a particular application process running on a host via a port number without setting up a connection session. Virtual Server You can designate virtual servers, e.g., a FTP, web, telnet or mail server, on your local network and make them accessible to the outside world. A virtual server means that it is not a dedicated server -- that is, the entire computer is not dedicated to running on the public network but in the private network. Infrastructure mode A backbone to extend the service provided by network. This mode provides wireless connectivity to multiple wireless network devices within a fixed range or area of coverage, interacting with wireless nodes via an antenna. SSID SSID is a thirty-two character(maximum) alphanumeric key identifying the wireless local area network. Service Set Identity. A group name shared by all members of an IEEE 802.11b network. Only devices with the same SSID are allowed to establish connections. For the wireless devices in a network to communicate with each other, all device must be configured with the same SSID. MAC Address Media Access Code Address. A unique, 48-bit number assigned to every network interface card by the manufacturer. NAT (Network Address Translation) IP Address NAT is an Internet standard that translates a private IP within one network to a public IP address, either a static or dynamic one. NAT provides a type of firewall by hiding internal IP addresses. It also enables a company to use more internal IP addresses. If the IP addresses given by your ISP are not enough for each PC on the LAN and the Broadband Home Router, you need to use NAT. With NAT, you make up a private IP network for the LAN and assign an IP address from that network to each PC. One of some public addresses is configured and mapped to a private workstation address when accesses are made through the gateway to a public network. For example, the Broadband Home Router is assigned with the public IP address of 168.111.2.1. With NAT enabled, it creates a Virtual LAN. Each PC on the Virtual LAN is assigned with a private IP address with default value of 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.2.254. These PCs are not accessible by the outside word but they can communicate with the outside world through the public IP 168.111.2.1.
52Troubleshooting If the suggested solutions in this section do not resolve your issue, contact your system administrator or Internet service provider. Problems with LAN On Ethernet client 1. PCs on the LAN can not get IP addresses from the Broadband Home Router. The chances are that the interface used as DHCP server is modified and the client PCs do not renew IP addresses. If your DHCP server is enabled on private IP Address previously and you modify the interface to public IP Address, the client PCs should renew IP addresses. 2. The PC on the LAN cannot access to the Broadband Home Router. Check that your PC is on the same subnet with the Broadband Home Router. On Wireless client • Check your wireless LAN card driver is properly installed. • Check the wireless configuration of the Broadband Home Router . 3. Can’t access the Router’s Web Configuration interface from a PC on your local network. • Make sure you are using the correct login information, the default login name is admin and password is admin. • Make sure your PC’s IP address is on the same subnet as the router. If you are using the recommended addressing scheme, your PC’s address should be in the range of 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254. Note 1. If you use DHCP server and your PC’s IP address is shown as 169.254.x.x: please renew the IP address and check the connection from the PC to the router . 2. If you are using a wireless LAN card equipped PC, check that the SSID and WEP settings are the same for the router and PC. 3. If your router’s IP address has been changed and you don’t know the current IP address, clear the router’s configuration to factory defaults. This will set the router’s IP address to 192.168.0.0 Problems with WAN 1. If you router can’t access the Internet, you should first determine whether the router is able to obtain a WAN IP address from the ISP. Or you have been assigned a static IP address. • Check the IP address for the WAN port. • If your ISP requires a login program as PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE), ensure the user name and password you enter are correctable.
Troubleshooting 53• If your Broadband Home Router is set to routing mode and you use private IP addresses on the LAN, make sure Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled. • Your PC may not recognize any DNS server address. Check your DNS setting on the Broadband Home Router. 2. Check the physical connection between the Broadband Home Router and the xDSL/cable modem. At the DOS prompt, ping the IP address of the Broadband Home Router. That is, ping the WAN IP address that you set or provided by your ISP. If the following response occurs: Relay from WAN IP address(xxx..xxx.xxx.xxx) bytes=32 time=100ms TTL=253 Then the connection between the Broadband Home Router and the network is OK. If you get a failed ping with the response of: Request time out Then the connection is fail. Check the cable between the Broadband Home Router and the network. 3. Check the DNS setting of the Broadband Home Router. At the DOS prompt, ping the IP address of the DNS provided by your ISP. For example, if your DNS IP is 168.95.1.1, then ping 168.95.1.1. If the following response occurs: Relay from 168.65.1.1 bytes=32 time=100ms TTL=253 Then the connection to the DNS is OK. If you get a failed ping with the response of: Request time out Then the DNS is not reachable. Check your DNS setting on the Broadband Home Router. Problems with Upgrading The following lists the error messages that you may see during upgrading and the action to take. 1. Error Message: invalid file format Possible cause: The firmware file format is invalid. Action: Check the file format is correct, otherwise download a firmware file with correct format. 2. Error Message: firmware update in process Possible cause: The upgrade is already in process. Action: Do not turn off your Broadband Home Router otherwise you will cause damage to the device. 3. Error Message: can’t allocate update buffer Possible cause: It may caused by the lack of memory. Action: Reboot your Broadband Home Router and perform the upgrade task again. Problems with Date and Time The Broadband Home Router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time from one of the Network Time Servers on the Internet. If your LCD Panel can’t display the date and time, please check whether the SNTP setting is correct.
