Introduction
Integrated 802.11g Wireless Access Point
802.11g is an exciting new wireless technology that achieves data
rates up to 54Mbps, nearly five times faster than 802.11b.
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) on-board
makes for the easiest possible connection of a network. The DHCP
server will assign IP addresses to each computer automatically
so there is no need for a complicated networking setup.
NAT IP Address Sharing
Your Router employs Network Address Translation (NAT) to share the single
IP address assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider while saving
the cost of adding additional IP addresses to your Internet service account.
SPI Firewall
Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network
from a wide array of common hacker attacks including IP Spoofing,
Land Attack, Ping of Death (PoD), Denial of Service (DoS), IP with
zero length, Smurf Attack, TCP Null Scan, SYN flood, UDP flooding,
Tear Drop Attack, ICMP defect, RIP defect, and fragment flooding.
MAC Address Filtering
For added security, you can set up a list of MAC addresses (unique client
identifiers) that are allowed access to your network. Every computer has its
own MAC address. Simply enter these MAC addresses into a list using the
web-based user interface and you can control access to your network.
Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP) Compatibility
UPnP (Universal Plug-and-Play) is a technology that offers
seamless operation of voice messaging, video messaging,
games, and other applications that are UPnP-compliant.
Support for VPN Pass-Through
If you connect to your office network from home using a VPN
connection, your Router will allow your VPN-equipped computer
to pass through the Router and to your office network.

Connecting your Router
Positioning your Router
Your wireless connection will be stronger the closer your computer is to
your Router. Typical indoor operating range for your wireless devices is
between 100 and 200 feet. In the same way, your wireless connection and
performance will degrade somewhat as the distance between your Router
connected devices increases. This may or may not be noticeable to you.
As you move farther from your Router, connection speed may decrease.
Factors that can weaken signals simply by getting in the way of your
network’s radio waves are metal appliances, or obstructions, and walls.
Please see “Appendix B: Important Factors for Placement and Setup” in this
User Manual for more guidelines.
If you have concerns about your network’s performance that might be
related to range or obstruction factors, try moving the computer to a
position between five and 10 feet from the Router, in order to see if distance
is the problem. If difficulties persist even at close range, please see the
Troubleshooting section for solutions.
Connecting your Computers
1.
Power off your computers and networking equipment.
2.
Connect your computer to one of the YELLOW RJ45 ports on the rear
of the Router labeled “connections to your computers” by using an
Ethernet networking cable (one Ethernet network cable is supplied).

Connecting your Router
Connecting your ADSL Line
Connection for the Router to the ADSL line varies by country and region.
Typically it involves a microfilter or a microfilter with built-in splitter to allow
simultaneous use of ADSL service and telephone service on the same telephone
line. Please read the following steps carefully and select appropriate method.
If your telephone service and ADSL service are on the same telephone
line, ADSL microfilters are needed for each telephone and device, such as
answering machine, fax machine, and caller ID display. Additional splitters
may be used to separate telephone lines for telephone and the Router.
Note: Do not connect the ADSL microfilter between the walljack and the
router. This will prevent ADSL service from reaching the modem.
2.
If your telephone service and ADSL service are on the same telephone
line and you are using an ADSL microfilter with built-in splitter, connect
the splitter to the telephone wall jack providing ADSL service. Then,
connect the telephone cord from the ADSL microfilter RJ11 port
generally labeled “DSL” to the gray RJ11 port labeled “DSL line” on the
back of your Router. Connect telephony device to the other port on the
ADSL splitter commonly labeled “Phone”. An additional ADSL microfilter
is needed for another telephone and device on the same line.
Note: One RJ11 telephone cord is supplied. When inserting an RJ11
plug, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is
properly seated.

DHCP Server
The DHCP server function makes setting up a network very easy by
assigning IP addresses to each computer on the network automatically.
The default setting is “On”. The DHCP server can be turned OFF if
necessary, however, in order to do so you must manually set a static IP
address for each computer on your network. To turn off the DHCP server,
select “Off” and click “Apply Changes”.
4.
IP Pool
The IP Pool is the range of IP addresses set aside for dynamic assignment
to the computers on your network. The default is 2–100 (99 computers). If
you want to change this number, you can do so by entering a new starting
and ending IP address and clicking on “Apply Changes”. The DHCP server
can assign 100 IP addresses automatically. This means that you cannot
specify an IP address pool larger than 100 computers. For example, starting
at 50 means you have to end at 150 or lower so as not to exceed the 100client limit. The starting IP address must be lower in number than the ending
IP address.

Internet WAN
The “Internet WAN” tab is where you will set up your Router to connect
to your Internet Service Provider. The Router is capable of connecting
to virtually any ADSL Service Provider’s system provided you have
correctly configured the Router’s settings for your ISP’s connection
type. Your connection settings are provided to you by your ISP.

Lease time is the length of time the DHCP server will reserve the IP
address for each computer. We recommend that you leave the lease
time set to “Forever”. The default setting is “Forever”, meaning that any
time a computer is assigned an IP address by the DHCP server, the IP
address will not change for that particular computer. Setting lease times
for shorter intervals, such as one day or one hour, frees IP addresses after
the specified period of time. This also means that a particular computer’s
IP address may change over time. If you have set any of the other
advanced features of the Router, such as DMZ or client IP filters, these
are dependent on the IP address. For this reason, you will not want the IP
address to change.
Manually Configuring your Router
To configure the Router with the settings that your ISP gave you, click
“Connection Type” (1) on the left side of the screen. Select the connection
type you use. If your ISP gave you DNS settings, clicking “DNS” (2) allows
you to enter DNS address entries for ISPs that require specific settings.
When you have finished making settings, the “Internet Status”
indicator will read “Connected” if your Router is set up properly.
Connection Type
From the “Connection Type” page, you can select one of these five
connection types based on the instruction provided by your ISP:
PPPoE
PPPoA
Dynamic IP (1483 Bridged)
Static IP (IPoA)
Modem Only (Disable Internet Sharing)
Note: See Appendix C in this User Manual for some common DSL
Internet setting parameters. If you are not sure, please contact your ISP.

Manually Configuring your Router
Select the type of connection you use by clicking the radio button
(1) next to your connection type and then clicking “Next”.
Setting your ISP Connection Type to PPPoE or PPPoA
PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) is the standard method of
connecting networked devices. It requires a user name and password to
access the network of your ISP for connecting to the Internet. PPPoA (PPP
over ATM) is similar to PPPoE, but is mostly implemented in the UK. Select
PPPoE or PPPoA and click “Next”. Then enter the information provided
by your ISP, and click “Apply Changes” to activate your settings.

VPI/VCI - Enter your Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual
Circuit Identifier (VCI) parameter here. (Assigned by your ISP).
6.
Encapsulation - Select your encapsulation type (supplied by
your ISP) to specify how to handle multiple protocols at the
ATM transport layer. VC-MUX: PPPoA Virtual Circuit Multiplexer
(null encapsulation) allows only one protocol running per virtual
circuit with fewer overheads. LLC: PPPoA Logical Link Control
allows multiple protocols running over one virtual circuit (more
overhead).
7.
Dial on Demand - By selecting “Dial on Demand” your Router
will automatically connect to the Internet when a user opens up a
web browser.
8.
