Chapter 1: Introduction  CNet Smart Wireless-G Router is the upcoming 54Mbps wireless networking standard that’s almost five times faster than the widely deployed Wireless-B (802.11b) products found in homes, businesses, and public wireless hotspots around the country —but since they share the same 2.4GHz radio band, Wireless-G devices can also interoperate with existing 11Mbps Wireless-B equipment.  Since both standards are built in, you can protect your investment in existing 802.11b infrastructure, and migrate to the new screaming fast Wireless-G standard as your needs grow.  The CNet Smart Wireless-G Router is really three devices in one box. First, there’s the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect Wireless-G or Wireless-B devices to the network. There’s also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices. Connect four PCs directly, or daisy-chain out to more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection. The Wireless-G Broadband Router   •All-in-One Internet-Sharing Router, 4-port Switch, and versatile 802.11g Access Point/Bridge/Repeater •Investment Protection: 5 times faster and interoperate with existing Wireless-B equipment seamlessly • Enhanced Security Management Functions: Internet Access Policies with Time Schedules, Website Blocking, IP and MAC Address Filtering; Port Filtering; Wireless MAC Address Filtering; and NAT Technology   • Access Your Corporate Network Remotely through Virtual Private Networking (VPN)—Supports IPSec and PPTP Pass-Through • Supports Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) Service, Static and Dynamic Routing (RIP1 and 2), DMZ Hosting • Web-based Utility for Easy Configuration from Any Web Browser • DHCP Server Capability to Assign IP Addresses Automatically • All Ethernet Ports Support Auto-Crossover (MDI/MDI-X)—No Need for Crossover Cables • Support SNMP V1 and V2c for efficient network management on large installation base   Simply put, a router is a network device that connects two networks together. In this instance, the Router connects your Local Area Network (LAN), or the group of PCs in your home or office, to the Internet. The Router processes and regulates the data that travels between these two networks.  The Router’s NAT feature protects your network of PCs so users on the public, Internet side cannot “see” your PCs. This is how your network remains private. The Router protects your network by inspecting every packet coming in through the Internet port before delivery to the appropriate PC on your network. The Router inspects Internet port services like the web server, ftp server, or other Internet applications, and, if allowed, it will forward the packet to the appropriate PC on the LAN side.  Remember that the Router’s ports connect to two sides. The LAN ports connect to the LAN, and the Internet port connects to the Internet. The LAN and Internet ports transmit data at 10/100Mbps.
 What’s an IP Address? IP stands for Internet Protocol. Every device on an IP-based network, including PCs, print servers, and routers, requires an IP address to identify its “location,” or address, on the network. This applies to both the Internet and LAN connections. There are two ways of assigning an IP address to your network devices. You can assign static IP addresses or use the Router to assign IP addresses dynamically.  Static IP Addresses A static IP address is a fixed IP address that you assign manually to a PC or other device on the network. Since a static IP address remains valid until you disable it, static IP addressing ensures that the device assigned it will always have that same IP address until you change it. Static IP addresses must be unique and are commonly used with network devices such as server PCs or print servers.  If you use the Router to share your cable or DSL Internet connection, contact your ISP to find out if they have assigned a static IP address to your account. If so, you will need that static IP address when configuring the Router. You can get that information from your ISP.  Dynamic IP Addresses A dynamic IP address is automatically assigned to a device on the network, such as PCs and print servers. These IP addresses are called “dynamic” because they are only temporarily assigned to the PC or device. After a certain time period, they expire and may change. If a PC logs onto the network (or the Internet) and its dynamic IP address has expired, the DHCP server will automatically assign it a new dynamic IP address.  DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Servers PCs and other network devices using dynamic IP addressing are assigned a new IP address by a DHCP server. The PC or network device obtaining an IP address is called the DHCP client. DHCP frees you from having to assign IP addresses manually every time a new user is added to your network.  A DHCP server can either be a designated PC on the network or another network device, such as the Router. By default, the Router’s DHCP Server function is enabled.  If you already have a DHCP server running on your network, you must disable one of the two DHCP servers. If you run more than one DHCP server on your network, you will experience network errors, such as conflicting IP addresses. To disable DHCP on the Router, see the DHCP section in “Chapter 6: The Router’s Web-based Utility.”
  This User Guide covers the steps for setting up a network with the Router (see Figure 1-1). After going through “Chapter 2: Getting to Know the CNet Smart Wireless-G Router,” most users will only need to use the following chapters:  • Chapter 3: Connect the Router This chapter instructs you on how to connect a cable or DSL modem to the Router and connect your PC(s) to the Router.    • Chapter 4: Configure the PCs This chapter instructs you on how to configure your PCs to be DHCP clients, if you have previously set static IP addresses on your PCs.  • Chapter 5: Configure the Router’s Basic Settings   This chapter explains how to configure the Router using your web browser and the Router’s web-based utility. You will configure the Router for Internet access using the settings provided by your ISP.  When you’re finished with these basic steps, you will be ready to connect to the Internet. You can also modify the Router’s settings further; for example, you can adjust security features and other settings to enable online gaming (see “Chapter 6: The Router’s Web-based Utility”).
Chapter 2: Getting to Know the   CNet Wireless-G Router    The Router’s ports are located on the Router’s back panel.  Internet   The Internet port is where you connect your cable or DSL modem through an Ethernet network cable. Your modem connection will not work from any other port. Ports 1-4    These four LAN (Local Area Network) ports connect to network devices, such as PCs, print servers, and network attached storage (NAS). Each of the ports will auto-detect whether a straight-through or crossover cable is plugged into it, so there is no need for an uplink port. Any one of the four ports can serve as an uplink port to other network devices. Power    The Power port is where you will connect the power adapter.        The Router’s LEDs display information about the Router’s status.  Power     Green. This LED lights up when the Router is powered on.
WLAN     Green. When Wireless network is active.  The LAN Indicators  LAN                  Green. The LAN LED serves two purposes. If the LED is continuously lit, the Router is successfully connected to a device through the corresponding port. If the LED is flickering, the Router is actively sending or receiving data over that port.   The Internet Indicators WAN                  Green. The WAN LED lights up when a successful connection is made between the Router and your cable or DSL modem (the Internet). The Link/Act LED flickers when the Router is sending or receiving data over the Internet port.  Proceed to “Chapter 3: Connect the Router.”
Chapter 3: Connect the Router  The Router’s setup consists of more than simply plugging hardware together. You will have to configure your networked PCs to accept the IP addresses that the Router assigns them (if applicable), and you will also have to configure the Router with setting(s) provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).  The installation technician from your ISP should have left the setup information for your modem with you after installing your broadband connection. If not, you can call your ISP to request that data.  Once you have the setup information you need for your specific type of Internet connection, you can begin installation and setup of the Router.    If you want to use a PC with an Ethernet adapter to configure the Router, go to “Wired Connection to a PC.” If you want to use a PC with a wireless adapter to configure the Router, go to “Wireless Connection to a PC and Boot-Up.”   1. Before you begin, make sure that all of your network’s hardware is powered off, including the Router, PCs, and cable or DSL modem. 2. Connect one end of an Ethernet network cable to one of the LAN ports (labeled 1-4) on the back of the Router, and the other end to an Ethernet port on a PC.       Repeat this step to connect more PCs, a switch, or other network devices to the Router.  3. Connect a different Ethernet network cable from your cable or DSL modem to the Internet port on the Router’s rear panel. This is the only port that will work for your modem connection.
 4. Power on the cable or DSL modem.  5. Connect the power adapter to the Router’s Power port, and then plug the power adapter into a power outlet.    • The Power LED on the front panel will light up green as soon as the power adapter is connected properly.  6. Power on one of your PCs.   If you want to use a wireless connection to access the Router, follow these instructions:  1. Before you begin, make sure that all of your network’s hardware is powered off, including the Router, PCs, and cable or DSL modem.  2. Connect an Ethernet network cable from your cable or DSL modem to the Internet port on the Router’s rear panel. This is the only port that will work for your modem connection.
 3. Power on the cable or DSL modem.  4. Connect the power adapter to the Power port, and then plug the power adapter into a power outlet.  • The Power LED on the front panel will light up green as soon as the power adapter is connected properly.  4. Power on one of the PCs on your wireless network(s).  5. For initial access to the Router through a wireless connection, make sure the PC’s wireless adapter has its SSID set to CNET_Wireless (the Router’s default setting), and its WEP encryption is disabled. After you have accessed the Router, you can change the Router and this PC’s adapter settings to match the your usual network settings.  The Router’s hardware installation is now complete. Go to “Chapter 4: Configure the PCs.”
Chapter 4: Configure the PCs  The instructions in this chapter will help you configure each of your computers to be able to communicate with the Router.  To do this, you need to configure your PC’s network settings to obtain an IP (or TCP/IP) address automatically, so your PC can function as a DHCP client. Computers use IP addresses to communicate with the Router and each other across a network, such as the Internet  First, find out which Windows operating system your computer is running. You can find out by clicking the Start button. Read the side panel of the Start menu to find out which operating system your PC is running.  You may need to do this for each computer you are connecting to the Router.  The next few pages tell you, step by step, how to configure your network settings based on the type of Windows operating system you are using.

If you want to use only Shared Key authentication, then select Shared Key.  Transmission Rate The default setting is Auto. The range is from 1 to 54Mbps. The rate of data transmission should be set depending on the speed of your wireless network. You can select from a range of transmission speeds, or keep the default setting, Auto, to have the Router automatically use the fastest possible data rate and enable the Auto-Fallback feature. Auto-Fallback will negotiate the best possible connection speed between the Router and a wireless client.  Beacon Interval The default value is 100. Enter a value between 1 and 65,535 milliseconds. The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the Router to synchronize the wireless network.  DTIM Interval The default value is 3. This value, between 1 and 255 milliseconds, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the Router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Its clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages.  RTS Threshold This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. The range is 0-2347 bytes. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are recommended. If a network packet is smaller than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The Router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission.  Fragmentation Threshold This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. The range is
256-2346 bytes. It specifies the maximum size for a packet before data is fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase the Fragmentation Threshold. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor network performance.   Only minor modifications of this value are recommended.    Operation Mode CNet Smart Wireless-G Router support three operation mode: Access Point/Bridge/Repeater.
