Appendix A: Connection Troubleshooting
Problem:
I get a timeout when trying to access the Router administration screen.
Answer: Verify the router’s IP address as it sometimes will change
depending on your network configuration. Open up a command terminal by
clicking Start > Run, then type ‘cmd’ and click ok. At the DOS prompt, type
ipconfig. The “Default Gateway” IP address is the address of your
AirCruiser G. Use this number instead of 192.168.1.245 when logging in.
Problem: I can login to the router administration screen, and everything
seems fine, but I can’t connect to the Internet.
Answer: If you have trouble connecting to the internet, often times its due to
settings in your TCP/IP settings or your web browser.
Step 1
Click the Start button. Select Settings and then Control Panel icon.

Appendix B
Glossary
ADSL
Asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) is a new modem technology that
converts existing twisted-pair telephone lines into access paths for high-speed
communication of various sorts.
Auto-MDI/MDIX
On a network hub or switch, an auto-MDI/MDIX port automatically senses if it
needs to act as a MDI or MDIX port. The auto- MDI/MDIX capability eliminates
the need for crossover cables.
Auto-negotiate
To automatically determine the correct setting. The term is often used with
communications and networking
DHCP
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an Internet protocol for
automating the configuration of computers that use TCP/IP. DHCP can be used
to automatically assign IP addresses, to deliver TCP/IP stack configuration
parameters such as the subnet mask and default router, and to provide other
configuration information such as the addresses for printer, time and news
servers.
DMZ
In computer networks, a DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a computer host or small
network inserted as a "neutral zone" between a company's private network and
the outside public network. It prevents outside users from getting direct access
to a server that stores company data. Typically, the DMZ contains devices
accessible to Internet traffic, such as Web (HTTP) servers, FTP servers, SMTP
(e-mail) servers and DNS servers.
DNS
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a distributed Internet directory service.
DNS is used mostly to translate between domain names and IP addresses, and
to control Internet email delivery. Most Internet services rely on DNS to work. If
DNS fails, web sites cannot be located and email delivery service will be
suspended.
Dynamic IP Address
An IP address is automatically assigned to a user’s AP in a TCP/IP network
typically by a DHCP server.
57
Firewall
A system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network.
Firewalls can be implemented in both hardware and software, or a combination
of both. Firewalls are frequently used to prevent unauthorized Internet users
from accessing private networks connected to the Internet, especially intranets.
All messages entering or leaving the intranet pass through the firewall, which
examines each message and blocks those that do not meet the specified
security criteria.
Gateway
A device, usually a Router, that connects hosts on a local network to other
networks.
IP Address
Every PC on the Internet has a unique identifying number, called an IP Address.
A typical IP address looks like this: 216.27.61.137
IPSec
IPSec stands for IP Security. It provides authentication and encryption over the
Internet. It functions at Layer 3 and thus secures everything on the network. It
has become a standard protocol used for virtual private networks (VPNs).
MAC Address
On a local area network (LAN) or other network, the MAC (Media Access
Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. Usually written
as: 01:23:45:67:89:ab
MTU
The size in bytes of the largest packet that can be sent or received.
NAT
A technique by which several hosts share a single IP address for accessing the
Internet.
Ping (Packet Internet Groper)
A utility to determine whether a specific IP address is accessible. It works by
sending a packet to the specified address and waiting for a reply. PING is used
primarily to troubleshoot Internet connections.
SSID
SSID is the name representing the Router in WLAN.
58
PPPoE
Point-to-Point over Ethernet is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the
Internet over an always-on connection by simulating a dial-up connection.
Router
A device that forwards data packets along networks. A router is connected to at
least two networks, commonly two LANs or WANs or a LAN and its ISP
network. Routers are located at gateways, the places where two or more
networks connect.
Subnet Mask
A mask used to determine which subnet an IP address belongs to. An IP
address has two components, the network address and the host address.
Subnetting enables the network administrator to further divide the host part of
the address into two or more subnets.
TCP/IP
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol), the suite of
communications protocols used to connect hosts on the Internet.
VPN
Virtual private networks are secured private network connections, built on top of
publicly accessible infrastructure, such as the Internet or the public telephone
network. VPNs typically employ some combination of encryption, digital
certificates, strong user authentication and access control to provide security to
the traffic they carry. They usually provide connectivity to many machines
behind a gateway or firewall.
WAN
Wide Area Network, a communication network that covers a relatively broad
geographic area, consisting of two or more LANs. Broadband communication
over the WAN is often through public networks such as the ADSL or Cable
systems, or through leased lines or satellites. To simplify it, please image
network as a WAN.
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a data privacy mechanism based on a
64/128-bit shared key algorithm, as described in the IEEE 802.11 standard.
