ADVANCED NETWORK SETTINGS PORT TRIGGERING SETUPESR600H/ESR750H 6-77 USER GUIDE6.7.4 Port Triggering SetupSome applications, such as online games, videoconferencing and VoIP telephony, require multiple ports for inbound and out-bound traffic. If an application requires both an incoming and an outgoing port simultaneously, it is possible to configure static port forwarding to handle the packets. That is not an optimal solution because a static IP address must be configured for each device. With port triggering an application, local port or range of ports and a communication protocol can be mapped to a spe-cific public port. Sending packets out over the local port triggers the router to open an incoming local port that is mapped to the same public port and application as the outgoing local port(s). The local application can communicate over the incoming and outgoing ports without the need for creating a fixed address.

WIRELESS SERVICESESR600H/ESR750H 7-1 USER MANUALThe ESR600H/ESR750H provides two ways to access USB devices over a network: server mode and NetUSB mode. In server mode, the router allows USB storage devices to act as a file servers which can be shared by users connected to the same network. In NetUSB mode, or USB over IP, the router allows users to connect to remote USB non-storage devices, such as speakers, on the same network.
WIRELESS SERVICES USB OVER IPESR600H/ESR750H 7-2 USER MANUAL7.1 USB Over IP7.1.1 Using the USB Device ServerIntroductionNetUSB is a USB over IP technology that transparently redirects all USB packets to a TCP/IP network channel. The technol-ogy allows a USB device to be used as if it were connected directly to a PC when actually the USB device is remotely con-nected to the ESR600H/ESR750H Dual Concurrent Wireless Router.Connect & DisconnectConnecting to a USB device with the EnGenius USB Control Center simulates plugging a USB device into a PC. Similarly, disconnecting a USB device simulates unplugging a USB device from a PC. Once  connected, the USB device can be used as if it were physically connected to the PC. Only one PC can connect to the USB device at a time so no other PC can con-nect this USB device until the USB device is disconnected.Subnet IssueIn order for a PC to use the NetUSB technology, both the PC and USB device server must be on the same subnet. To deter-mine the USB device server’s subnet, open the Control Centre software let it search for available devices. All available USB device servers are listed in the control center. If a server is not on the same subnet as the PC, the server is highlighted in red. If the server is on the same subnet, it is highlighted in blue and can be used with NetUSB. To configure the USB device server to be on the same subnet as the PC, modify the device server’s IP address to use the same subnet or switch the server to use DHCP mode.

Here are four of the most common ways and how to connect to the  Internet using them.Dynamic IP Address (DHCP)A DHCP of connection is where your internet connection is usually always on and your internet service provider automatically provides you with an IP address. A DHCP connection is usually from a Cable internet service.Static IPTo set up a Static IP connection, enter the following: IP Address of the Internet Connection, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and both DNS Servers. This information can be obtained by either your Internet Service provider or Network Administrator. If your internet service provider requires a username and password to connect, you will then be prompted to enter the correct information.MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size permitted for internet transmission. The factory default MTU size of Static IP is 1500. If you wish to manually change the MTU size, set it between 512 and 1500.

Login: The username or e-mail address that the internet connection uses to access internet connectivity.2. Password: The password that corresponds to the username or e-mail address used to connect to the internet in the PPPoE.3. Service Name: The Service Name is optional. This is to signify the name of the Internet Service Provider.4. MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size permitted for internet transmission. The factory default MTU size of Static IP is 1500. If you wish to manually change the MTU size, set it between 512 and 1500. 5. Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)To set up a PPTP connection, enter the type of WAN connection (Static IP or DHCP).
