5352Manually Configuring your Router5352Manually Configuring your Router1  Wireless channels must match between Router and AP. 2  Security settings (WEP) must match between Router and AP. 3  If MAC filtering is enabled, user must be sure to add the WLAN MAC address(es) of the Router/AP in order to allow communication with each other. 4  If using a network protected by WPA, the SSID on both Access Points must be the same.FirewallYour 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 floodingThe 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.
53Manually Configuring your RouterManually Configuring your Router53Manually Configuring your Routersection213456789101112Virtual ServersVirtual 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.Choosing an ApplicationA list of popular applications has been included to choose from. Click on “Select a Service” then select your application from the drop-down list. The settings will be transferred to the first row available. Click “Add” to save the setting for that application.Manually Entering Settings into the Virtual ServerTo manually enter settings, click on “Custom Server” and enter a name for the server. Enter the Server IP address in the space provided for the internal machine and the port(s) required to pass. Then select the protocol type (TCP or UDP), and then click “Add”.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.
5554Manually Configuring your Router5554Manually Configuring your RouterClient IP FiltersThe Router can be configured to restrict access to the Internet, email, or other network services at specific days and times. To restrict Internet access to a single computer for example, enter a name of the filter in “Filter Name” box (1) and IP address of the computer you wish to restrict access to in the IP field (2). Next, enter “80:80” in the Port field (3). Select protocol from the “Protocol”  drop-down box (4). Click “Apply Changes”. The computer at the IP address you specified will now be blocked from Internet access. MAC Address FilteringThe 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 a name for the user and the MAC address of each client on your network to allow network access. Next, click “Add” to save the settings.(1) (2) (3) (4)

This may be necessary if the NAT feature is causing problems with an application such as a game or video conferencing application. Use this feature on a temporary basis. The computer in the DMZ is not protected from  hacker attacks.To put a computer in the DMZ, enter its LAN IP address in the “Private IP” field and click “Apply Changes” for the change to take effect.Blocking an ICMP PingComputer 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 turn off the ping response, select “Block ICMP Ping” (1) and click “Apply Changes”. The Router will not respong to an ICMP Ping.

If you wish to add a password for greater security, you can set a password here. Write down your password and keep it in a safe place, as you will need it if you need to log into the Router in the future. It is also recommended that you set a password if you plan to use the remote management feature of your Router.Changing the Login Time-Out SettingThe login time-out option allows you to set the period of time that you can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface. The timer starts when there has been no activity. For example, you have made some changes in the advanced setup interface, then left your computer alone without clicking “Logout”. Assuming the time-out is set to 10 minutes, then 10 minutes after you leave, the login session will expire. You will have to log into the Router again to make any more changes. The login time-out option is for security purposes and the default is set to 10 minutes.Note: Only one computer can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface at one time.
6362Manually Configuring your Router6362Manually Configuring your RouterSetting the Time and Time ZoneThe Router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the Router to synchronize the system clock to the global Internet. The synchronized clock in the Router is used to record the security log and control client filtering. Select desired NTP time servers and the time zone that you reside in, then click “Apply Changes”. The system clock may not update immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the Router to contact the time servers on the Internet and get a response. You cannot set the clock yourself.Enabling Remote ManagementBefore you enable this advanced feature of your Belkin Router, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. Remote management allows you to make changes to your Router’s settings from anywhere on the Internet. Click on the “Change Settings” button to bring up the “Remote Management” page.There are two methods of remotely managing the Router. The first is to allow access to the Router from anywhere on the Internet by selecting “Any IP address can remotely manage the Router”. By typing in your WAN IP address from any computer on the Internet, you will be presented with a login screen where you need to type in the password of your Router. The second method is to allow a specific IP address only to remotely manage the Router. This is more secure, but less convenient. To use this method, enter the IP address you know you will be accessing the Router from in the space provided and select “Only this IP address can remotely manage the Router”. Before you enable this function, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you set your administrator password. Leaving the password empty will potentially open your Router to intrusion.

It is a technology that offers seamless operation of voice messaging, video messaging, games, and other applications that are UPnP-compliant. Some applications require the Router’s firewall to be configured in a specific way to operate properly. This usually requires opening TCP and UDP ports, and in some instances, setting trigger ports. An application that is UPnP-compliant has the ability to communicate with the Router, basically “telling” the Router which way it needs the firewall configured. The Router ships with the UPnP feature disabled. If you are using any applications that are UPnP-compliant, and wish to take advantage of the UPnP features, you can enable the UPnP feature. Click on the “Change Setting” button to bring up the “UPnP Setting” page. Then select “On” for “Enable UPnP”. Click on the “Apply Changes” button to save your settings.

Problem:I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly, and my network name is not listed.SolutionIf the correct network name is not listed under “Available  Networks” in the wireless utility, please attempt the following troubleshooting steps:1.  Temporarily move computer, if possible, five to 10 feet from the Router. Close the wireless utility, and re-open it. If the
67Troubleshooting67section213456789101112correct network name now appears under “Available Networks”, you may have a range or interference problem. Please see the suggestions discussed in Appendix B entitled “Important Factors for Placement and Setup”.2.  Using a computer that is connected to the Router via a network cable (as opposed to wirelessly), ensure that “Broadcast SSID” is enabled. This setting is found on the Router’s wireless “Channel and SSID” configuration page.  If you are still unable to access the Internet after completing these steps, please contact Belkin Technical Support.Problem: My wireless network performance is inconsistent.Data transfer is sometimes slow.Signal strength is poor.Difficulty establishing and/or maintaining a Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection.Solution:Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity and the throughput performance between devices decreases when the distance between devices increases. Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances. As a result, the typical indoor range of your wireless devices will be between 100 to 200 feet. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move farther from the Router or access point. In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest temporarily moving the computer, if possible, five to 10 feet from the Router. Changing the wireless channel - Depending on local wireless traffic and interference, switching the wireless channel of your network can improve performance and reliability. The default channel the Router is shipped with is channel 11, you may choose from several other channels depending on your region; see the section entitled “Changing the Wireless Channel” on page 37 for instructions on how to choose other channels.
6968Troubleshooting6968TroubleshootingLimiting the wireless transmit rate - Limiting the wireless transmit rate can help improve the maximum wireless range, and connection stability. Most wireless cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change this property, go to the Windows Control Panel, open “Network Connections” and double-click on your wireless card’s connection. In the “Properties” dialog, select the “Configure” button on the “General” tab (Windows 98 users will have to select the wireless card in the list box and then click “Properties”), then choose the “Advanced” tab and select the rate property. Wireless client cards are usually set to automatically adjust the wireless transmit rate for you, but doing so can cause periodic disconnects when the wireless signal is too weak; as a rule, slower transmission rates are more stable. Experiment with different connection rates until you find the best one for your environment; note that all available transmission rates should be acceptable for browsing the Internet. For more assistance, see your wireless card’s user manual.Problem:I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security on a Belkin Router or Belkin Access Point.Solution 1.

Currently there are four levels of wireless networking standards, which transmit data at very different maximum speeds. Each is based on the designation 802.11(x), so named by the IEEE, the board that is responsible for certifying networking standards. The most common wireless networking standard, 802.11b, transmits information at 11Mbps; 802.11a and 802.11g work at 54Mbps; and Pre-N works at 108Mbps. Pre-N, the precursor to the upcoming 802.11n release, promises speeds that exceed 802.11g, and up to twice the wireless coverage area. See the following chart for more detailed information.

7777section21345671112Appendixes9810Appendix A: GlossaryIP AddressThe “IP address” is the internal IP address of the Router. 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:192.168.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)10.x.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)Subnet MaskSome networks are far too large to allow all traffic to flood all its parts. These networks must be broken down into smaller, more manageable sections, called subnets. The subnet mask is the network address plus the information reserved for identifying the “subnetwork”.DNSDNS is an acronym for Domain Name Server. A Domain Name Server is a server located on the Internet that translates URLs (Universal Resource Links) like www.belkin.com to IP addresses. Many ISPs do not require you to enter this information into the Router. 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.PPPoEMost ADSL providers use PPPoE as the connection type. If you use an ADSL modem to connect to the Internet, your ISP may use PPPoE to log you into the service.Your connection type is PPPoE if:1.  Your ISP gave you a user name and password which is required to connect to the Internet.2.  Your ISP gave you software such as WinPoET or Enternet300 that you use to connect to the Internet.
7978Appendixes7978Appendixes3.  You have to double-click on a desktop icon other than your browser to get on the Internet.   To set the Router to use PPPoE, type in your user name and password in the spaces provided. After you have typed in your information, click “Apply Changes”.After you apply the changes, the “Internet Status” indicator will read “connection OK” if your Router is set up properly.PPPoAEnter the PPPoA information in the provided spaces, and click “Next”. Click “Apply” 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).4.  VPI/VCI - Enter your Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Circuit Identifier (VCI) parameter here. (Assigned by your ISP).Disconnect after X...This feature is used to automatically disconnect the Router from your ISP when there is no activity for a specified period of time. For instance, placing a check mark next to this option and entering “5” into the minute field will cause the Router to disconnect from the Internet after five minutes of no Internet activity. This option should be used if you pay for your Internet service by the minute.Channel and SSIDTo change the channel of operation of the Router, select the desired channel from the drop-down menu and select your channel. Click “Apply Changes” to save the setting. You can also change the SSID. The SSID is the equivalent to the wireless network’s name. You can make the SSID anything you want to. If there are other wireless networks in your area, you should give your wireless network a unique name. Click inside of the SSID box and type in a new name. Click “Apply Changes” to make the change.
79Appendixes79section213456789101112ESSID BroadcastMany wireless network adapters currently on the market possess a feature known as site survey. It scans the air for any available network and allows each computer to automatically select a network from the survey. This occurs if the computer’s SSID is set to “ANY”. Your Belkin Router can block this random search for a network. If you disable the “ESSID Broadcast” feature, the only way a computer can join your network is by its SSID being set to the specific name of the network (like WLAN). Be sure that you know your SSID (network name) before enabling this feature. It is possible to make your wireless network nearly invisible. By turning off the broadcast of the SSID, your network will not appear in a site survey. Obviously, turning off the broadcast feature of the SSID helps increase security.EncryptionSetting encryption can help keep your network secure. The Router uses Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and WIFI protested Access (WPA) encrytion to protect to protect your data and features two rates of encryption: 64-bit and 128-bit. Encryption works on a system of keys. The key on the computer must match the key on the Router, and there are two ways to make a key. The easiest is to let the Router’s software convert a passphrase you’ve created into a key. The advanced method is to enter the keys manually.Virtual ServersThis function will 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. To manually enter settings, enter the IP address in the space provided for the internal machine, the port type (TCP or UDP), and the LAN and public port(s) required to pass. Then select “Enable” and click “Set”. 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.
8180Appendixes8180AppendixesClient IP FiltersThe Router can be configured to restrict access to the Internet, email, or other network services at specific days and times. Restriction can be set for a single computer, a range of computers, or multiple computers.MAC Address FilteringThe 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 on your network to allow network access to each or copy the MAC address by selecting the name of the computer from the “DHCP Client List”. To enable this feature, select “Enable”. Next, click “Apply Changes” to save  the settings.DMZIf you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the firewall, you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access. This may be necessary if the NAT feature is causing problems with an application such as a game or video conferencing application. Use this feature on a temporary basis. The computer in the DMZ is not protected from hacker attacks. To put a computer in the DMZ, enter the last digits of its LAN IP address in the “Static IP” field and click “Apply Changes” for the change to take effect.If you have only one public (WAN) IP address, then you can leave the public IP to “0.0.0.0”. If you are using multiple public (WAN) IP addresses, it is possible to select which public (WAN) IP address the DMZ host will be directed to. Type in the public (WAN) IP address you wish the DMZ host to direct to, enter the last two digits of the IP address of the DMZ host computer, and click “Apply Changes”.
81Appendixes81section213456789101112Administrator PasswordThe Router ships with NO password entered. If you wish to add a password for more security, you can set a password from your Router’s web-based user interface. Keep your password in a safe place as you will need this password if you need to log into the Router in the future. It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you set a password if you plan to use the remote management feature. The login time-out option allows you to set the period of time that you can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface. The timer starts when there has been no activity. For example, you have made some changes in the advanced setup interface, then left your computer alone without clicking “Logout”.Assuming the time-out is set to 10 minutes, then 10 minutes after you leave, the login session will expire. You will have to log into the Router again to make any more changes. The login time-out option is for security purposes and the default is set to 10 minutes. Note, only one computer can be logged into the Router’s advanced setup interface at a time.Time and Time ZoneThe Router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the Router to synchronize the system clock to the global Internet. The synchronized clock in the Router is used to record the security log and control client filtering. Select the time zone that you reside in. If you reside in an area that observes daylight saving time, then place a check mark in the box next to “Enable Daylight Saving”. The system clock may not update immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the Router to contact the time servers on the Internet and get a response.Remote ManagementBefore you enable this function, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. Remote management allows you to make changes to your Router’s settings from anywhere on the Internet.
8382Appendixes8382AppendixesUPnPUPnP (Universal Plug-and-Play) is a technology that offers seamless operation of voice messaging, video messaging, games, and other applications that are UPnP-compliant. Some applications require the Router’s firewall to be configured in a specific way to operate properly. This usually requires opening TCP and UDP ports and in some instances setting trigger ports. An application that is  UPnP-compliant has the ability to communicate with the Router, basically “telling” the Router which way it needs the firewall configured. The Router ships with the UPnP feature disabled. If you are using any applications that are UPnP-compliant, and wish to take advantage of the UPnP features, you can enable the UPnP feature. Simply select “Enable” in the “UPnP Enabling” section of the “Utilities” page. Click “Apply Changes” to save the change.
83Appendixes83section213456789101112Appendix B: Important Factors for Placement and SetupNote: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they will not prohibit your wireless network from functioning; if you are concerned that your network is not operating at its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may help.1. Wireless Router (or Access Point) Placement   Place your Wireless Router (or access point), the central connection point of your network, as close as possible to the center of your wireless network devices.   To achieve the best wireless network coverage for your “wireless clients” (i.e., computers enabled by Belkin Wireless Notebook Network Cards, Wireless Desktop Network Cards, and Wireless USB Adapters): •  Ensure that your Wireless Router’s (or access point’s) networking antennas are parallel to each other, and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your Wireless Router (or access point) itself is positioned vertically, point the antennas a much as possible in an upward direction. •  In multistory homes, place the Wireless Router (or access point) on a floor that is as close to the center of the home as possible. This may mean placing the Wireless Router (or access point) on an upper floor.•  Try not to place the Wireless Router (or access point) near a cordless 2.4GHz phone.2.   Avoid Obstacles and Interference   Avoid placing your Wireless Router (or access point) near devices that may emit radio “noise,” such as microwave ovens. Dense objects that can inhibit wireless communication include: •  Refrigerators•  Washers and/or dryers•  Metal cabinets•  Large aquariums•  Metallic-based UV tinted windows
8584Appendixes8584Appendixes  If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that objects such as these are not blocking the signal’s path (between your computers and Wireless Router or access point).3.   Cordless Phones  If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after attending to the above issues, and you have a cordless phone: •  Try moving cordless phones away from Wireless Routers (or access points) and your wireless-enabled computers. •  Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that operates on the 2.4GHz band (check manufacturer’s information). If this fixes the problem, your phone may  be interfering. •  If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless network. For example, change the phone to channel 1 and move your Wireless Router (or access point) to channel 11. See your phone’s user manual for detailed instructions. •  If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 5GHz cordless phone.4.   Choose the “Quietest” Channel for your Wireless Network   In locations where homes or offices are close together, such as apartment buildings or office complexes, there may be wireless networks nearby that can conflict with yours.   Use the Site Survey capabilities found in the Wireless LAN Utility of your wireless adapter to locate any other wireless networks that are available (see your wireless adapter’s manual), and move your Wireless Router (or access point) and computers to a channel as far away from other networks as possible.  Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to find the clearest connection and avoid interference from neighboring cordless phones or other wireless devices.   For Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site Survey and wireless channel information included in your  User Manual.
85Appendixes85section213456789101112   These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area with your Wireless Router (or access point). Should you need to cover an even wider area, we suggest the Belkin Wireless Range Extender/Access Point.5. Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL   Secure connections typically require a user name and password, and are used where security is important. Secure connections include:•  Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, often used to connect remotely to an office network•  The “Bring Your Own Access” program from America Online (AOL), which lets you use AOL through broadband provided by another cable or DSL service•  Most online banking websites•  Many commercial websites that require a user name and password to access your account   Secure connections can be interrupted by a computer’s power management setting, which causes it to “go to sleep.” The simplest solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by rerunning the VPN or AOL software, or by re-logging into the secure website.  A second alternative is to change your computer’s power management settings so it does not go to sleep; however, this may not be appropriate for portable computers. To change your power management setting under Windows, see the “Power Options” item in the Control Panel.  If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL, please review the steps in the previous pages to be sure you have addressed these issues.Appendix C: Internet Connection Setting TableThe table on the next page provides references to select and configure Internet connection in setting up your ADSL connection. Many ISPs use different settings depending on the region and equipment they use. You may try the setting for the ISPs in your region. If it does not work, please contact your ISP for your specific setting.
