Chapter 1: Introduction
Introduction to your Router
Thank you for purchasing the BiPAC 6200NXL Router. Your new router is an all-in-one unit that
combines a Broadband modem, Ethernet network switch and two USB ports to provide everything you
need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over a 3G broadband connection.
The BiPAC 6200NXL supports 3G, PPP over Ethernet, DHCP Client and Fixed IP address to establish
a connection with your ISP.
The perfect solution for connecting a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet
connection, the BiPAC 6200NXL allows multiple users to have high-speed Internet access
simultaneously.
Your new router also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from access by outside
users. Not only does it provide a natural firewall function with Network Address Translation (NAT), it
also provides rich firewall features to secure your network. All incoming data packets are monitored
and filtered. You can also configure your new router to block internal users from accessing the
Internet.
The BiPAC 6200NXL provides two levels of security support. First, it masks LAN IPaddresses making
them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is much more difficult 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 specific 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 specific 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.

2
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
3G
3 G-based Internet connections (requires an additional 3G USB modem), with automatic fail-over to
ensure an always-on Internet connection in the event that one of your Internet services fails. The setup
of 3G is simplified by the web browser-based configuration. It is easy for you to access to the Internet
wherever a 3G connection is available, you can even share your Internet connection with others, no
matter whether you’re in a meeting, or taking a cross-country train trip.
802.11n Wireless AP with WPA Support
With integrated 802.11n Wireless Access Point in the router, the device offers a quick and easy access
among wired network, wireless network and broadband connection with single device simplicity, and
as a result, mobility to the users. In addition to 300 Mbps 802.11n data rate, it also interoperates
backward with existing 802.11g and 802.11b equipment. The Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) supported features enhance the security level of data protection and
access control via Wireless LAN.
Fast Ethernet Switch
A3-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built-in with automatic switching between MDI and MDI-X
for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports, with auto detection allowing you to use either straight or
cross-over Ethernet cables.
EWAN
BiPAC 6200NXL offers a WAN port to connect to Cable Modems and fibre optic lines. This alternative,
yet faster method to connect to the internet will provide users more flexibility to get online.
USB Server
BiPAC 6200NXL supports two USB 2.0 ports, Using the integrated USB 2.0 ports, the device offers
users to share a blistering wired or 3G-based wireless Internet connection over 3G networks. Printer,
Webcam and HDD can also connect to USB port, The BiPAC 6200NXL can also serve as

3
multi-function servers with its USB port to help you set up your own network. You can share the printer
in your office network, monitor your house with a Webcam and share files with your colleagues or
friends. If you need to handle office business, home security and personal entertainment, the BiPAC
6200NXL can connect with your network devices using the built-in USB port.
3G Management Center
Monitoring your 3G connection status is easy with the BiPAC 6200NXL. The unique Billion 3G
Management Center is a web-based utility tool, displaying visually its current 3G-signal status for
users to maximize their connection. Users can monitor their bandwidth with current upload and
download speed. This tool also calculates the total amount of hours or data traffic used per month,
allowing users to manage their 3G monthly subscriptions. The web-based user interface of the BiPAC
6200NXL makes it extremely easy for users to install and manage their network. Supporting DHCP
client and server, the router enables system administrators to easily integrate this router into existing
network environments and manage IP assignment without the need to reconfigure other stations.
Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection
The router supports PPP over Ethernet, DHCP Client and Fixed IP address to establish a connection
with an ISP.
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, and it makes setting up a network simple and affordable. UPnP
architecture leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable proximity networking in addition to control and
data transfer among networked devices. With this feature enabled, you can seamlessly connect to Net
Meeting or MSN Messenger.
Network Address Translation
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users to access outside resources such as the
Internet simultaneously with one IP address/one Internet access account. Many application layer
gateways (ALG) are supported such as web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet, E-mail, News, Net2phone,
Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.
Firewall
NAT technology supports simple firewalls and provides options for blocking access from the Internet,
like Telnet, FTP, TFTP, WEB, SNMP and IGMP.

4
Domain Name System Relay
Domain Name System (DNS) relay provides an easy way to map a domain name with a user-friendly
name such as www.google.com with an IP address. When a local machine sets its DNS server to the
router’s IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC to this router is forwarded to
the real DNS on 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. To use the service, you must first apply for an account
from a DDNS service such as http://www.dyndns.org/.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
The BiPAC 6200NXL 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.
Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are also provided.
Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority by the
router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or management
information move through the router at lightning speed, even under heavy load. The QoS features are
configurable by Internal IP address, External IP address, protocol, and port. You can throttle the speed
at which different types of outgoing data pass through the router, to ensure P2P users don’t saturate
upload bandwidth, or office browsing doesn’t bring client web serving to a halt. In addition, or
alternatively, you can simply change the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort
out the actual speeds.
Virtual Server
You can specify which services are visible to outside users. The router detects an incoming service
request and forwards it to the specific local computer for handling. For example, you can assign a PC
in a LAN to act as a Web server inside and expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse
inside the web server directly while it is protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided for local
computers exposed to the outside Internet network.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server
On a WAN site, the DHCP client obtains an IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP)
automatically. On a LAN site, the DHCP server allocates a range of client IP addresses, including

5
subnet masks and DNS IP addresses and distributes them to local computers. This provides an easy
way to manage the local IP network.
Rich Packet Filtering
This feature filters the packet based on IP addresses as well as Port numbers. Filtering packets to and
from the Internet provides a higher level of security control.
Web-based GUI
A web-based GUI offers easy configuration and management. It also supports remote management
capability for remote users to configure and manage this product.
Firmware Upgradeable
You can upgrade the router with the latest firmware through its web-based GUI.
Operating Environment
• Operating temperature: 00C ~ 400C
• Storage temperature: -20OC ~ 700C
• Humidity: 20 - 95% non-condensing

simply pushing a button. If your network requires wider coverage, the built-in Wireless Distribution

7
System (WDS) repeater function allows you to expand your wireless network without the need for any
further wires or cables. Multiple SSIDs allow users to access different networks through a single
access point. Network managers can assign different policies and functions for each SSID, increasing
the flexibility and efficiency of the network infrastructure. Keep in mind, however, that the number,
thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass.
Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the BiPAC 6200NXL and other network devices to a
minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your BiPAC 6200NXL wireless product’s range from 3-90
feet (1-30 meters.)
Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized. Be aware of the direct line
between network devices. Position the devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or
ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception. Building Materials can impede the wireless signal -
a solid metal door or aluminium studs may have a negative effect on range.
Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes
through drywall or open doorways and not other materials. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet
or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate extreme RF (radio frequency) noise.

Chapter 3: Basic Installation
You can configure the BiPAC 6200NXL router through the convenient and user-friendly interface of a
web browser. Most popular operating systems such as Linux and Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/Me
include a web browser as a standard application.
PCs must have a properly installed Ethernet interface which connects to the router directly or through
an external repeater hub. In addition, PCs must have TCP/IP installed and configured to obtain an IP
address through a DHCP server or a fixed 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 between 192.168.1.1
and 192.168.1.253). The easiest way is to configure the PC is to obtain an IP address automatically
from the router using DHCP. If you encounter any problems accessing the router’s web interface you
are advised to uninstall any kind of software firewall on your PCs, as they can cause problems when
trying to access the 192.168.1.254 IP address of the router.
Please follow the steps below for installation on your PC’s network environment. First of all, check your
PC’s 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.
Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or
through the BiPAC 6200NXL. To configure other types of
workstations, please consult the manufacturer’s documentation.
