an IP or PPPoE session is dropped due to
an idle timeout, the light will remain green
if an ADSL connection is still present.
Off Modem power off, modem in bridged mode
or ADSL connection not present. In
addition, if an IP or PPPoE session is
dropped for any reason, other than an idle
timeout, the light is turned off.
INTERNET
Green
Blink IP connected and IP Traffic is passing
through the device (either direction)
Note:
A malfunction is any error of internal sequence or state that will prevent the device
from connecting to the DSLAM or passing customer data. This may be identified at
various times such after power on or during operation through the use of self testing
or in operations which result in a unit state that is not expected or should not occur.
IP connected (the device has a WAN IP address from IPCP or DHCP and DSL is up or
a static IP address is configured, PPP negotiation has successfully complete – if
used and DSL is up ) and no traffic detected. If the IP or PPPoE session is dropped
for any other reason, the light is turned off. The light will turn red when it attempts
to reconnect and DHCP or PPPoE fails.
Chapter 3 Web User Interface
This section describes how to access the device via the web user interface (WUI)
using an Internet browser such as Internet Explorer (version 5.0 and later).
3.1 Default Settings
The factory default settings of this device are summarized below.
 LAN IP address: 192.168.1.1
 LAN subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
 Administrative access (username: root , password: 12345 )
 WIFI access: enabled
Technical Note
During power on, the device initializes all settings to default values. It will then
read the configuration profile from the permanent storage section of flash memory.
The default attributes are overwritten when identical attributes with different values
are configured. The configuration profile in permanent storage can be created via
the web user interface or telnet user interface, or other management protocols.
The factory default configuration can be restored either by pushing the reset button
for more than five seconds until the power indicates LED blinking or by clicking the
Restore Default Configuration option in the Restore Settings screen.
3.2 IP Configuration
DHCP MODE
When the AR-5389 powers up, the onboard DHCP server will switch on. Basically,
the DHCP server issues and reserves IP addresses for LAN devices, such as your PC.
To obtain an IP address from the DCHP server, follow the steps provided below.
NOTE: The following procedure assumes you are running Windows XP.
However, the general steps involved are similar for most operating
systems (OS). Check your OS support documentation for further details.
STEP 1: From the Network Connections window, open Local Area Connection (You
may also access this screen by double-clicking the Local Area Connection
icon on your taskbar). Click the Properties button.
STEP 2: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button.
STEP 3: Select Obtain an IP address automatically as shown below.
STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings.
If you experience difficulty with DHCP mode, you can try static IP mode instead.
STATIC IP MODE
In static IP mode, you assign IP settings to your PC manually.
Follow these steps to configure your PC IP address to use subnet 192.168.1.x.
NOTE: The following procedure assumes you are running Windows XP.
However, the general steps involved are similar for most operating
systems (OS). Check your OS support documentation for further details.
STEP 1: From the Network Connections window, open Local Area Connection (You
may also access this screen by double-clicking the Local Area Connection
icon on your taskbar). Click the Properties button.
STEP 2: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button.
STEP 3: Change the IP address to the 192.168.1.x (1<x<255) subnet with subnet
mask of 255.255.255.0. The screen should now display as shown below.
STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings.
3.3 Login Procedure
Perform the following steps to login to the web user interface.
NOTE: The default settings can be found in 3.1 Default Settings.
STEP 1: Start the Internet browser and enter the default IP address for the device
in the Web address field. For example, if the default IP address is
192.168.1.1, type http://192.168.1.1.
NOTE: For local administration (i.e. LAN access), the PC running the browser
must be attached to the Ethernet, and not necessarily to the device.
For remote access (i.e. WAN), use the IP address shown on the Chapter 4
Device Information screen and login with remote username and
password.
STEP 2: A dialog box will appear, such as the one below. Enter the default
username and password, as defined in section 3.1 Default Settings.
Click OK to continue.
NOTE: The login password can be changed later (see 8.6.1 Passwords).
STEP 3: After successfully logging in for the first time, you will reach this screen.
Chapter 4 Device Information

5.4 Auto-Detection
The auto-detection function is used for CPE to detect WAN service for either
ETHWAN or xDSL interface. The feature is designed for the scenario that requires
only one WAN service in different applications.
The Auto Detection page simply provides a checkbox allowing users to enable or
disable the feature. Check the checkbox to display the following configuration
options.
Enter the PPP username/password given by your service provider for PPP service
detection.
WAN services list for ATM mode: A maximum of 7 WAN services with
corresponding PVC are required to be configured for ADSL ATM mode. The services
will be detected in order. Users can modify the 7 pre-configured services and select
disable to ignore any of those services to meet their own requirement and also
reduce the detection cycle.
WAN services list for PTM mode: A maximum of 7 WAN services with
corresponding VLAN ID (-1 indicates no VLAN ID is required for the service) are
required to be configured for ADSL/VDSL PTM mode and ETHWAN. The services will
be detected in order. Users can modify the 7 pre-configured services and select
disable to ignore any of those services to meet their own requirement and also
reduce the detection cycle.
Click "Apply/Save" to activate the auto-detect function.
Options for each WAN service: These options are selectable for each WAN
service. Users can pre-configure both WAN services and other provided settings to
meet their deployed requirements.
Auto Detection status and Restart
The Auto-detection status is used to display the real time status of the
Auto-detection feature.
The Restart button is used to detect all the WAN services that are either detected
by the auto-detection feature or configured manually by users.
The following window will pop up upon clicking the Restart button. Click the OK
button to proceed.
Auto Detection notice
1) This feature will automatically detect one WAN service only. If customers require
multiple WAN services, manual configuration is required.
2) If a physical ETHWAN port is detected, the Auto Detection for ETHWAN will be
fixed on the physical ETHWAN port and cannot be configured for any LAN port;
if the physical ETHWAN port is not detected, the Auto Detection for ETHWAN will
be configured to the 4th LAN port by default and allows it to be configured for any
LAN port as well.
3) For cases in which both the DSL port and ETHWAN port are plugged in at the
same time, the DSL WAN will have priority over ETHWAN. For example, the
ETHWAN port is plugged in with a WAN service detected automatically and then
the DSL port is plugged in and linked up. The Auto Detection feature will clear
the WAN service for ETHWAN and re-detect the WAN service for DSL port.
4) If none of the pre-configured services are detected, a Bridge service will be
created.

5.5.2 Port Triggering
Some applications require that specific ports in the firewall be opened for access by
the remote parties. Port Triggers dynamically 'Open Ports' in the firewall when an
application on the LAN initiates a TCP/UDP connection to a remote party using the
'Triggering Ports'. The Router allows the remote party from the WAN side to
establish new connections back to the application on the LAN side using the 'Open
Ports'. A maximum 32 entries can be configured.
To add a Trigger Port, click Add. The following will be displayed.
