Chapter 1: Introduction
Introduction to your Router
Thank you for purchasing BiPAC 7800(N) Router. Your new router is an all-in-one unit that combines
an ADSL modem, ADSL2/2+ router and Ethernet network switch to provide everything you need to
get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over an ADSL broadband connection.
BiPAC 7800(N) router complies with ADSL2+ standards for deployment worldwide and supports
downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. Designed for small ofce,
home ofce and residential users, the router enables even faster Internet connections. You can
enjoy ADSL services and broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video
streaming and real-time audio much easier and faster than ever before.
BiPAC 7800(N) supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 – PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) over ATM Adaptation
Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516)
to establish a connection with your ISP. Your new router also supports VC-based and LLC-based
multiplexing.
Theperfect solutionforconnectingasmall groupof PCstoa high-speedbroadband Internetconnection,
BiPAC 7800(N) allows multiple users to have high-speed Internet access simultaneously.
Your new router also serves as an Internet rewall, protecting your network from access by outside
users. Not only does it provide a natural rewall function with Network Address Translation (NAT), it
also provides rich rewall features to secure your network. All incoming data packets are monitored
and ltered. You can also congure your new router to block internal users from accessing the
Internet.
BiPAC 7800(N) provides two levels of security support. First, it masks LAN IP addresses making
them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is much more difcult for a hacker to target a
machine on your network. Second, it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that
outside users can access. To ensure that games and other Internet applications run properly, you
can open specic ports for outside users to access internal services on your network.
The Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) client and server services allow multiple
users to get IP addresses automatically when the router boots up. Simply set local machines as a
DHCP client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from the DHCP server and reboot. Each
time a local machine is powered up; the router recognizes it and assigns an IP address to instantly
connect it to the LAN.
For advanced users, Virtual Service (port mapping) functions allow the product to provide limited
visibility to local machines with specic services for outside users. For instance, a dedicated web
server can be connected to the Internet via the router and then incoming requests for web pages
that are received by the router can be rerouted to your dedicated local web server, even though the
server now has a different IP address.
Virtual Server can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, you can set the
router to allow separated FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same Internet-visible
IP address while still protecting the servers and LAN users from hackers.

Features
Express Internet Access
The router complies with ADSL worldwide standards. It supports downstream rate up to 12/24
Mbps with ADSL2/2+, 8Mbps with ADSL. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL services but also
broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio
much easier and faster than ever. It is compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2;
G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.lite (ITU G.992.2); G.hs (ITU G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3); G.dmt.bis.
plus (ITU G.992.5)).
EWAN
BiPAC 7800(N) EWAN port provides user an alternative means to connect to Cable Modems, VDSL,
ber optic lines and PON besides using ADSL for internet connection. If one uses ADSL to connect
to the internet, EWAN can act as the 5th Ethernet port of the LAN. This alternative provides users
with more exibility & a faster way to get online.
IPv6 Supported
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a version of the Internet Protocol that is designed to succeed
IPv4.
IPv6 has a vastly larger address space than IPv4. This results from the use of a 128-bit address,
whereas IPv4 uses only 32 bits. The new address space thus supports 2128 (about 3.4×1038)
addresses. This expansion provides exibility in allocating addresses and routing trafc and eliminates
the primary need for network address translation (NAT), which gained widespread deployment as an
effort to alleviate IPv4 address exhaustion.
IPv6 also implements new features that simplify aspects of address assignment (stateless address
autoconguration) and network renumbering (prex and router announcements) when changing
Internet connectivity providers. The IPv6 subnet size has been standardized by xing the size of the
host identier portion of an address to 64 bits to facilitate an automatic mechanism for forming the
host identier from Link Layer media addressing information (MAC address).
Fast Ethernet Switch
A 4-port 1000Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built in with automatic switching between MDI and MDI-X.
An Ethernet straight or crossover cable can be used directly for auto detection.
Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection
It supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation
over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a
connection with the ISP. The product also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
BiPAC 7800(N) provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a connection. You get
greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while sharing the same ISP account
and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client software is required for the local computer.
2

Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are also provided.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal
This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices and PCs
from many different vendors. It makes network simple and affordable for users. UPnP architecture
leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable seamless proximity networking in addition to control and
data transfer among networked devices. With this feature enabled, users can now connect to Net
meeting or MSN Messenger seamlessly.
Network Address Translation (NAT)
Allows multi-users to access outside resources such as the Internet simultaneously with one IP
address/one Internet access account. Many application layer gateway (ALG) are supported such as
web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet, E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.
Domain Name System (DNS) Relay
It provides an easy way to map the domain name (a friendly name for users such as www.yahoo.
com) and IP address. When a local machine sets its DNS server with this router’s IP address, every
DNS conversion request packet from the PC to this router will be forwarded to the real DNS in the
outside network.
Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname. This
dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. For example, to use the service, you must rst apply
for an account from a DDNS service like http://www.dyndns.org/. More than 5 DDNS servers are
supported.
Virtual Server
Users can specify some services to be visible from outside users. The router can detect incoming
service requests and forward either a single port or a range of ports to the specic local computer
to handle it. For example, a user can assign a PC in the LAN acting as a WEB server inside and
expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse inside web servers directly while it is
protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided to a local computer exposed to the outside
network, Internet.
Rich Packet Filtering
Not only lters the packet based on IP address, but also based on Port numbers. It will filter packets
from the Internet and vice versa, in addition to providing a higher level of security control.
Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server
In the WAN site, the DHCP client can get an IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP)
automatically. In the LAN site, the DHCP server can allocate a range of client IP addresses and
3

distribute them including IP address, subnet mask as well as DNS IP address to local computers. It
provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.
802.11n Wireless AP with WPA Support
With an integrated 802.11n Wireless Access Point in the router, the device delivers up to 6 times
faster speeds and 3 times farther range than an 802.11b/g wireless network. It supports a fast data
transfer rate up to 300Mbps and is fully compatible with 802.11b/11g equipments. The supported
features of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA-PSK/ WPA2-PSK) and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
enhance the security level of data protection and access control via Wireless LAN. The router also
supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) that features the establishment of a secured wireless network.
The built-in Wireless Distribution System (WDS) also facilitates the exibility for wireless network
expansion without the need for any external wires or cables.
Web based GUI
It supports web based GUI for conguration and management. It is user-friendly and comes with on-
line help. It also supports remote management capability for remote users to congure and manage
this product.
Firmware Upgradeable
Device can be upgraded to the latest rmware through the WEB based GUI.

The detail instruction in Reset Button
1. Recovery procedures for non-working routers (e.g. after a failed rmware upgrade ash):
Hold the Reset Button on the back of the modem in. Keep this button held in and turn on the
modem. Once power LED lits orange, release the Reset Button. The modem’s emergency-reash
web interface will then be accessible via http://192.168.1.254 where you can upload a rmware
image to restore the modem to a functional state. Please note that the modem will only respond
via its web interface at this address, and will not respond to ping requests from your PC or to telnet
connections.
Before powering on the router to enter the recovery process, please configure the
IP address of the PC as 192.168.1.100 and proceed with the following step by step
guide.
1. Power the router off.
2. Hold the "Reset Button”.
3. Power on the router. Then Router's IP will reset to Emergency IP
address (Say 192.168.1.254)
4. Download the firmware.
Cabling
One of the most common causes of problems is bad cabling or ADSL line(s). Make sure that all
connected devices are turned on. On the front panel of your router is a bank of LEDs. Verify that the
LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify if you are using the proper cables.
Make sure that all devices (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) connected to the same
telephone line as your router have a line lter connected between them and the wall outlet (unless
you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualied and licensed electrician),
and that all line lters are correctly installed in a right way. If line lter is not installed and connected
properly, it may cause problem to your ADSL connection or may result in frequent disconnections.

Chapter 3: Basic Installation
The router can be congured through your web browser. A web browser is included as a standard
application in the following operating systems: Linux, Mac OS, Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/Me/Vista,
etc. The product provides an easy and user-friendly interface for conguration.
Please check your PC network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network
adapter must be installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating system
manuals.
There are ways to connect the router, either through an external repeater hub or connect directly
to your PCs. However, make sure that your PCs have an Ethernet interface installed properly prior
to connecting the router device. You ought to congure your PCs to obtain an IP address through
a DHCP server or a xed IP address that must be in the same subnet as the router. The default IP
address of the router is 192.168.1.254 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (i.e. any attached PC
must be in the same subnet, and have an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253).
The best and easiest way is to congure the PC to get an IP address automatically from the router
using DHCP. If you encounter any problem accessing the router web interface it is advisable to
uninstall your rewall program on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the IP address
of the router. Users should make their own decisions on what is best to protect their network.
Please follow the following steps to congure your PC network environment.
