Product Features
Compatibility with both PCs and Mac® Computers
Integrated 10/100 4-Port Switch
The Router supports a variety of networking environments including
Mac OS® 8.x, 9.x, X v10.x, AppleTalk® , Linux® , Windows® 95, 98SE,
Me, NT® , 2000, XP, Vista® , and others. You need an Internet browser
and a network adapter that supports TCP/IP (the standard language of
the Internet).
The Router has a built-in, 4-port network switch to allow your wired
computers to share printers, data and MP3 files, digital photos, and
much more. The switch features automatic detection so it will adjust to
the speed of connected devices. The switch will transfer data between
computers and the Internet simultaneously without interrupting or
consuming resources.
Front-Panel LED Display
Integrated 802.11g Wireless Access Point
Lighted LEDs on the front of the Router indicate which functions are in
operation. You’ll know at-a-glance whether your Router is connected to
the Internet. This feature eliminates the need for advanced software and
status-monitoring procedures.
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)
Web-Based Advanced User Interface
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.
You can set up the Router’s advanced functions easily through your web
browser, without having to install additional software onto the computer.
There are no disks to install or keep track of and, best of all, you can
make changes and perform setup functions from any computer on the
network quickly and easily.

NAT IP Address Sharing
Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP) Compatibility
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.
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
SPI Firewall
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.
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.

Setup Assistant
Belkin has provided Setup Assistant software to make installing your Router a simple and easy task. You can use it to get your
Router up and running in minutes. The Setup Assistant requires that your Windows 2000, XP, or Vista computer be connected
directly to your ADSL and that the Internet connection is active and working at the time of installation. If it is not, you must use the
“Alternate Setup Method” section of this User Manual to configure your Router. Additionally, if you are using an operating system
other than Windows 2000, XP, or Vista, or Mac OS X, you must use the “Alternate Setup Method” section of this User Manual.

IP Address
IP Pool
The “IP address” is the internal IP address of the Router. The default IP
address is “192.168.2.1”. To access the advanced setup interface, type
this IP address into the address bar of your browser. This address can
be changed if needed. To change the IP address, type in the new IP
address and click “Apply Changes”. The IP address you choose should
be a non-routable IP. Examples of a non-routable IP are:
The range of IP addresses set aside for dynamic assignment to the
computers on your network. 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 starting IP address must be lower in number than
the ending IP address.
192.168.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)
10.x.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)
Lease Time
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.
Subnet Mask
There is no need to change the subnet mask. This is a unique, advanced
feature of your Belkin Router.
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”.
G Wireless Modem Router
Local Domain Name
You can set a local domain name (network name) for your network.
There is no need to change this setting unless you have a specific
advanced need to do so. You can name the network anything you want
such as “MY NETWORK”.

list. If there have been any changes, the list will be updated.
Internet WAN
The “Internet WAN” tab is where you will set up your Router to connect to your Internet Service Provider (ISP). The Router is capable of connecting

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 A™ ) 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.
1.	
User Name – Enter the user name. (Assigned by your ISP).
2.	
Password – Enter your password. (Assigned by your ISP).
3.	
Retype Password – Confirm the password. (Assigned by your ISP).
6.	Encapsulation – Select your encapsulation type (supplied by
your ISP) to specify how to handle multiple protocols at the A™
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.
4.	IP Assigned by ISP – Leave “Yes” if your ISP automatically assigns
an IP address. If your ISP assigned a fixed IP address, select “No”
and enter assigned values.
8.	Idle Time (Minutes) – Enter the maximum idle time for the Internet
connection. After this time has been exceeded, the connection will
be terminated.
5.	VPI/VCI – Enter your Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Circuit
Identifier (VCI) parameter here. (Assigned by your ISP).
9.	MTU – The MTU setting should never be changed unless your
ISP requires a specific MTU setting. Making changes to the MTU
can cause problems with your Internet connection, including
disconnection from the Internet, slow Internet access, and
problems with Internet applications working properly.

DNS (Domain Name Server) Settings
A “Domain Name Server” is a server located on the Internet that
translates Universal Resource Links (URLs) like “www.belkin.com” to IP
addresses. Many ISPs do not require you to enter this information into
the Router. The “Automatic from ISP” box (1) should be checked if your
ISP did not give you a specific DNS address. If you are using a static IP
connection type, then you may need to enter a specific DNS address
and secondary DNS address for your connection to work properly. If
your connection type is dynamic or PPPoE, it is likely that you do not
have to enter a DNS address.
In this mode, the Router simply acts as a bridge passing packets across
the DSL port. It requires additional software to be installed on your
computers in order to access the Internet.
1.	VPI/VCI – Enter your VPI and VCI parameter here. (Assigned by
your ISP).
2.	Encapsulation – Select LLC or VC MUX. (Assigned by your ISP).

Using DDNS (Dynamic DNS)
Setting up the Router’s Dynamic DNS Update Client
The DDNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static
host name in any of the many domains DynDNS.org offers, allowing your
network computers to be more easily accessed from various locations
on the Internet. DynDNS.org provides this service, for up to five host
names, free to the Internet community. TZO.com is another alternative
to DynDNS.org. DDNS service is ideal for a home website, file server, or
to make it easy to access your home PC and stored files while you’re at
work. Using the service can ensure that your host name always points to
your IP address, no matter how often your ISP changes it. When your IP
address changes, your friends and associates can always locate you by
visiting yourname.dyndns.org instead! To register free for your Dynamic
DNS host name, please visit http://www.dyndns.org.
You must register with DynDNS.org’s free update service before using
this feature. Once you have your registration, follow the directions below.
1.	
Enter your DynDNS.org user name in the “Account / E-mail”
field (1).
2.	
Enter your DynDNS.org password in the “Password / Key” field (2).
3.	
Enter the DynDNS.org domain name you set up with DynDNS.org
in the “Domain Name” field (3).
4.	
Click “Apply Changes” to update your IP address.
Whenever your IP address assigned by your ISP changes, the
Router will automatically update DynDNS.org’s servers with your
new IP address. You can also do this manually by clicking the “Apply

Changing the Wireless Channel
There are a number of operating channels from which to choose. In the
United States, there are 11 channels. In the United Kingdom and most
of Europe, there are 13 channels. In a small number of other countries,
there are other channel requirements. Your Router is configured to
operate on the proper channels in which the country you reside. The
default is “Auto”. The channel can be changed if needed. If there are
other wireless networks operating in your area, your network should
be set to operate on a channel that is different than the other wireless
networks. For best performance, use a channel that is at least five
channels away from the other wireless network. For instance, if another
network is operating on channel 11, then set your network to channel 6
or below. To change the channel, select the channel from the drop-down
list. Click “Apply Changes”. The change is immediate.
Your Router can operate in three different wireless modes: “Mixed
(11b+11g)”, “11g Only”, and “11b Only”. The different modes are
explained below.
Mixed (11b+11g) Mode
In this mode, the Router is compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g wireless
clients simultaneously. This is the factory default mode and ensures
successful operation with all devices compatible with Wi-Fi® . If you have
a mix of 802.11b and 802.11g clients in your network, we recommend
that you keep the default setting. This setting should only be changed if
you have a specific reason to do so.
11g-Only Mode
802.11g-Only mode works with 802.11g clients only. This mode
is recommended only if you want to prevent 802.11b clients from
accessing your network. To switch modes, select the desired mode from
the “Wireless Mode” drop-down box. Then, click “Apply Changes”.
11b-Only Mode
We recommend you DO NOT use this mode unless you have a very
specific reason to do so. This mode exists only to solve unique
problems that may occur with some 802.11b client adapters and is NOT
necessary for interoperability of 802.11g and 802.11b standards.

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
WEP is a common protocol that adds security to all wireless products that are compliant with Wi-Fi. WEP was designed to give wireless networks the
equivalent level of privacy protection as a comparable wired network.
64-Bit WEP
Encryption Keys
64-bit WEP was first introduced with 64-bit encryption, which includes
a key length of 40 bits plus 24 additional bits of system-generated data
(64 bits total). Some hardware manufacturers refer to 64-bit as 40-bit
encryption. Shortly after the technology was introduced, researchers
found that 64-bit encryption was too easy to decode.
After selecting either the “64-bit” or “128-bit WEP” encryption mode,
it is critical that you generate an encryption key. If the encryption key
is not consistent throughout the entire wireless network, your wireless
networking devices will be unable to communicate with one another
on your network and you will not be able to successfully communicate
within your network. You can enter your key by typing in the hex key
manually, or you can type in a passphrase in the “Passphrase” field and
click “Generate” to create a key. A hex (hexadecimal) key is a mixture
of numbers and letters from A–F and 0–9. For 64-bit WEP, you need to
enter 10 hex keys. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 hex keys.
128-Bit WEP
As a result of 64-bit WEP’s potential security weaknesses, a more
secure method of 128-bit encryption was developed. 128-bit encryption
includes a key length of 104 bits plus 24 additional bits of systemgenerated data (128 bits total). Some hardware manufacturers refer to
128-bit as 104-bit encryption. Most of the new wireless equipment in the
market today supports both 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption, but you
might have older equipment that only supports 64-bit WEP. All Belkin
wireless products will support both 64-bit and 128-bit WEP.
G Wireless Modem Router
For instance:
AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit WEP key
C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit WEP key
The WEP passphrase is NOT the same as a WEP key. Your wireless card
uses this passphrase to generate your WEP keys, but different hardware
manufacturers might have different methods for generating the keys. If
you have equipment from multiple vendors in your network, you can use
the hex WEP key from your Router or access point and enter it manually
into the hex WEP key table in your wireless card’s configuration screen.

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
WPA2
WPA is a new Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve upon the
security features of WEP. To use WPA security, the drivers and software
of your wireless equipment must be upgraded to support WPA. These
updates will be found on the wireless vendors’ websites. There are two
types of WPA security: WPA-PSK (no server) and WPA (with 802.1x
radius server).
The Router features WPA2, which is the second generation of the
WPA-based 802.11i standard. It offers a higher level of wireless security
by combining advanced network authentication and stronger AES
encryption methods.
WPA2 Requirements
WPA-PSK (no server)
This method uses what is known as a “pre-shared key” as the
network key. A network key is basically a password that is between
eight and 63 characters long. It can be a combination of letters,
numbers, or characters. Each client uses the same network key to
access the network. Typically, this is the mode that will be used in a
home environment.
IMPORTANT: In order to use WPA2 security, all your computers and
wireless client adapters must be upgraded with patches, drivers,
and client utility software that support WPA2. At the time of this
User Manual’s publication, a couple security patches are available,
for free download, from Microsoft® . These patches work only with
the Windows XP operating system. Other operating systems are not
supported at this time.
WPA (with 802.1x radius server)
With this system, a radius server distributes the network key to the
clients automatically. This is typically found in a business environment.

Sharing the Same Network Keys
For a Windows XP computer that does not have Service Pack 2 (SP2),
a file from Microsoft called “Windows XP Support Patch for Wireless
Protected Access (KB 826942)” is available for free download at http://
www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&familyid=0
09D8425-CE2B-47A4-ABEC-274845DC9E91.
Most Wi-Fi products ship with security turned off. So, once you have
your network working, you need to activate WEP or WPA and make sure
your wireless networking devices are sharing the same network key.
For Windows XP computers with SP2, Microsoft has released a free
download to update the wireless client components to support WPA2
(KB893357). The update can be downloaded from: http://www.microsoft.
com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=662bb74d-e7c1-48d6-95ee1459234f4483&DisplayLang=en.
Using a Hexadecimal Key
A hexadecimal key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F
and 0–9. 64-bit keys are five 2-digit numbers. 128-bit keys are 13
2-digit numbers.
For instance:
IMPORTANT: You also need to ensure that all your wireless client
cards and adapters support WPA2, and that you have downloaded
and installed the latest driver. Most of the Belkin wireless cards
have updated drivers available for download from the Belkin support
site: www.belkin.com/networking. For a list of Belkin wireless
products that support WPA/WPA2, please visit our website at
www.belkin.com/networking.
AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit key
C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit key
In the boxes below, make up your key by writing in two characters
between A–F and 0–9 in each box. You will use this key to program the
encryption settings on your Router and your wireless computers.
Note to Mac users: Original Apple ® AirPort® products support 64-bit
encryption only. Apple AirPort 2 products can support 64-bit or 128-bit
encryption. Please check your product to see which version you are
using. If you cannot configure your network with 128-bit encryption, try
64-bit encryption.

WPA Setup
Setting WPA/WPA2-PSK (no server)
Note: To use WPA security, all your clients must be upgraded to
drivers and software that support it. At the time of this User Manual’s
publication, a security patch download is available free from Microsoft.
This patch works only with the Windows XP operating system. You also
need to download the latest driver for your Belkin Wireless G Desktop
or Notebook Card from the Belkin support site. Other operating systems
are not supported at this time. Microsoft’s patch only supports devices
with WPA-enabled drivers such as Belkin 802.11g products.
1.	
From the “Allowed Client Type” drop-down menu, select
“WPA/WPA2”.
2.	
For “Authentication”, select “Pre-shared Key” for typical home/
SOHO use. This setting will have to be identical on the clients that
you set up.
3.	
Enter your pre-shared key. This can be from eight to 63 characters
and can be letters, numbers, or symbols. This same key must be
used on all of the clients that you set up. For example, your preshared key might be something like: “Smith family network key”.
4.	
Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all clients to
match these settings.
There are two types of WPA security: WPA-PSK (no server) and WPA
(with radius server). WPA-PSK (no server) uses a so-called pre-shared
key (PSK) as the security key. A pre-shared key is a password that is
between eight and 63 characters long. It can be a combination of letters,
numbers, and other characters. Each client uses the same key to access
the network. Typically, this mode will be used in a home environment.
WPA (with radius server) is a configuration wherein a radius server
distributes the keys to the clients automatically. This is typically used
in a business environment. WPA2 is the second generation of WPA,
offering a more advanced encryption technique over WPA.

Wireless Range Extension and Bridging
What is a Wireless Bridge?
PLEASE BE SURE TO FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW CAREFULLY.
A wireless bridge is actually an operation “mode” you can use to extend
the range of your wireless network, or add an extension of your network
in another area of your office or home without running cables.
1.	
Set your access point to the same channel as the Router. For more
information on changing channels, see the “Wireless - Channel and
SSID” section of this User Manual.
2.	
Find the access point’s MAC address on the bottom of the access
point. There are two MAC addresses on the bottom label. You will
need the MAC address named “WLAN MAC Address”. The MAC
address starts with “0030BD” and is followed by six other numbers
or letters (i.e., 0030BD-XXXXXX). Write the MAC address below.
Go to the next step.
3.	
Place your secondary access point within range of your Router
and near the area where you want to extend the range or add the
network segment. Typically, indoor range should be between 100
and 200 feet.
4.	
Connect power to your access point. Make sure the access point is
on and proceed to the next step.
5.	
From a computer already connected to your Router, access the
Advanced Setup Utility by opening your browser. In the address
bar, type in “192.168.2.1”. Do not type in “www” or “http://” before
the number. Note: If you have changed your Router’s IP address,
use that IP address.
Note: We can make no guarantees that this feature will interoperate with
hardware from other wireless manufacturers.
Note: Please make sure to download the latest firmware version for the
Router for optimal performance at: http://web.belkin.com/support.
Adding Another Network Segment Wirelessly
Connecting a network switch or hub to the Router’s RJ45 jack will allow
a number of computers connected to the switch access to the rest of
the network.
Setting up a Bridge Between your Router and a Secondary
Access Point
Bridging your Belkin Router to a secondary access point requires that
you access the Router’s Advanced Setup Utility and enter the MAC
address of the access point in the appropriate area. There are also a few
other requirements.

Firewall
Virtual Servers
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
•
Fragment flooding
Virtual servers allow you to route external (Internet) calls for services
such as a web server (port 80), FTP server (Port 21), or other
applications, through your Router to your internal network. Since your
internal computers are protected by a firewall, machines from the
Internet cannot get to them because they cannot be “seen”. If you need
to configure the virtual server function for a specific application, you will
need to contact the application vendor to find out which port settings
you need. You can manually input this port information into the Router.
The firewall also masks common ports that are frequently used to attack
networks. These ports appear to be “Stealth”, meaning that essentially
they do not exist to a would-be hacker. You can turn the firewall function
off if needed; however, it is recommended that you leave the firewall
enabled. Disabling the firewall protection will not leave your network
completely vulnerable to hacker attacks, but it is recommended that you
leave the firewall enabled.

Click “Apply Changes” to save the setting for that application. To remove
an application, select the number of the row that you want to remove,
then click “Clear”.
To manually enter settings, enter the IP address in the space provided
for the internal (server) machine, the port(s) required to pass, the port
type (TCP or UDP), and click “Apply Changes”. Each inbound port entry
has two fields with five characters maximum per field that allows a start
and end port range (e.g., [xxxxx]-[xxxxx]). For each entry, you can enter
a single port value by filling in the two fields with the same value (e.g.,
[7500]-[7500]) or a wide range of ports (e.g., [7500]-[9000]). If you need
multiple single-port values or a mixture of ranges and a single value,
you must use multiple entries up to the maximum of 20 entries (e.g., 1.
[7500]-[7500], 2. [8023]-[8023], 3. [9000]-[9000]). You can only pass one
port per internal IP address. Opening ports in your firewall can pose
a security risk. You can enable and disable settings very quickly. It is
recommended that you disable the settings when you are not using a
specific application.

Schedule Rule
To configure the URL-blocking feature, specify the websites (www.
somesite.com) and or keywords you want to filter on your network. Click
“Apply Changes” to activate the change. To complete this configuration,
you will need to create or modify an access rule in the “Client IP filters”
section. To modify an existing rule, click the “Edit” option next to the
rule you want to modify. To create a new rule, click on the “Add PC”
option. From the “Access Control > Add PC” section, check the option
for “WWW with URL Blocking” in the “Client PC Service” table to filter
out the websites and keywords specified.
You may filter Internet access for local clients based on rules. Each
access control rule may be activated at a scheduled time. Define the
schedule on the “Schedule Rule”, and apply the rule on the “Access
Control” page.

Setting MAC-Address Filtering
The MAC-address filter is a powerful security feature that allows you
to specify which computers are allowed on the network. Any computer
attempting to access the network that is not specified in the filter list
will be denied access. When you enable this feature, you must enter
the MAC address of each client (computer) on your network to allow
network access to each. The “Block” feature lets you turn on and off
access to the network easily for any computer without having to add
and remove the computer’s MAC address from the list. To enable this
feature, select “Enable MAC Address Filtering” (1). Next, select the
access rule as “Allow” or “Deny”.

(2)
(3)
Then, enter the MAC address of each computer on your network by
selecting from the “DHCP Client List” drop-down box (2) and the ID to
copy to (3) before clicking “Copy to”. As an alternative method, click in
the space provided (4) and enter the MAC address of the computer you
want to add to the list. Click “Apply Changes” to save the settings.

Note: You will not be able to delete the MAC address of the computer
you are using to access the Router’s administrative functions (the
computer you are using now).

DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)
Blocking an ICMP Ping
If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly
from behind the firewall, you can open the client up to unrestricted
2-way Internet access. This may be necessary if the NAT feature
is causing problems with an application such as a game or videoconferencing application. Use this feature on a temporary basis. The
computer in the DMZ is not protected from hacker attacks.
Computer hackers use what is known as “pinging” to find potential
victims on the Internet. By pinging a specific IP address and receiving a
response from the IP address, a hacker can determine that something of
interest might be there. The Router can be set up so it will not respond
to an ICMP ping from the outside. This heightens the level of security of
your Router.
To put a computer in the DMZ, enter the last digits of its IP address in
the IP field and select “Enable”. Click “Apply Changes” for the change
to take effect. If you are using multiple static WAN IP addresses, it
is possible to select to which WAN IP address the DMZ host will be
directed. Type in the WAN IP address to which you wish the DMZ host
to direct, enter the last two digits of the IP address of the DMZ host
computer, select “Enable”, and click “Apply Changes”.
To turn off the ping response, select “Block ICMP Ping” (1) and click
“Apply Changes”. The Router will not respond to an ICMP ping.
