Introduction
ThisChapterprovidesan overviewoftheWireless Router'sfeaturesand capabilities.
Congratulationsonthepurchaseof yournewWireless Router. TheWireless Routerisamulti-
functiondevice providingthefollowingservices:
• SharedBroadbandInternetAccess forall LAN users.
• 4-PortSwitchingHub for10BaseTor100BaseTconnections.
• Wireless Access Point for802.11band802.11g Wireless Stations.
Wireless RouterFeatures
TheWireless Routerincorporatesmanyadvancedfeatures, carefullydesignedtoprovide
sophisticatedfunctionswhilebeingeasytouse.
InternetAccess Features
• SharedInternetAccess. All usersontheLAN orWLAN canaccess theInternet
throughtheWireless Router,usingonlyasingleexternal IPAddress.Thelocal (invalid)
IPAddressesarehiddenfromexternal sources.Thisprocess iscalledNAT(NetworkAd-
dress Translation).
• DSL&CableModemSupport. TheWireless Routerhasa10/100BaseTEthernet
portforconnectingaDSLorCableModem.All popularDSLandCableModemsare
supported. SingTelRAS andBigPond(Australia)loginsupportisalsoincluded.
• PPPoE, and PPTP. TheInternet(WAN port)connectionsupportsPPPoE(PPP over
Ethernet),PPTP(Peer-to-PeerTunnelingProtocol),aswell as"DirectConnection"type
services. UnnumberedIPwithPPPoEisalsosupported.
• FixedorDynamicIPAddress. OntheInternet(WAN port)connection,theWireless
RoutersupportsbothDynamicIPAddress (IPAddress isallocatedonconnection)and
FixedIPAddress.

usingPPTP, L2TPandIPSec aretransparentlysupported-noconfigurationisrequired.
Wireless Features
• StandardsCompliant. TheWireless RoutercomplieswiththeIEEE802.11g (DSSS)
specificationsforWireless LANs.
• Supportsboth802.11b and802.11g Wireless Stations. The802.11g standard
providesforbackwardcompatibilitywiththe802.11bstandard,soboth802.11band
802.11g Wireless stationscanbeusedsimultaneously.
• Speedsto54Mbps. All speedsup tothe802.11g maximumof 54Mbpsaresupported.
• WEPsupport. SupportforWEP(WiredEquivalentPrivacy)isincluded.Keysizesof
64 Bit and128 Bit aresupported.
• Wireless MAC Access Control. TheWireless Access Controlfeaturecancheckthe
theMACaddress (hardwareaddress)of Wireless stationstoensurethat onlytrusted
Wireless Stationscanaccess yourLAN.
• SimpleConfiguration. Ifthedefault settingsareunsuitable,theycanbechanged
quicklyandeasily.
LANFeatures
• 4-PortSwitchingHub. TheWireless Routerincorporatesa4-port10/100BaseT
switchinghub, makingit easytocreateorextendyourLAN.
• DHCPServerSupport. Dynamic Host Configuration ProtocolprovidesadynamicIP
address toPCsandotherdevicesuponrequest.TheWireless Routercanactasa DHCP
Server fordevicesonyourlocal LAN andWLAN.
• Multi SegmentLANSupport. LANs containingoneormoresegmentsaresupported,
via theWireless Router'sRIP(RoutingInformationProtocol)supportandbuilt-instatic
routingtable.

• InternetExplorerV4orlater
Preparation
BeforeattemptingtoconfiguretheWireless Router, pleaseensurethat:
• YourPCcanestablishaphysical connectiontotheWireless Router.ThePCandthe
Wireless Routermustbedirectlyconnected(usingtheHubportsontheWireless Router)
oronthesameLAN segment.
• TheWireless RoutermustbeinstalledandpoweredON.
• IftheWireless Router'sdefault IPAddress (192.168.1.254) isalreadyusedbyanother
device,theotherdevice mustbeturnedOFF until theWireless Routerisallocatedanew
IPAddress duringconfiguration.
Using UPnP
IfyourWindowssystemsupportsUPnP,aniconfortheWireless Routerwill appearinthe

Ifyou can'tconnect
IftheWireless Routerdoesnotrespond, checkthefollowing:
• TheWireless Routerisproperlyinstalled, LAN connectionisOK, andit is
poweredON. Youcantesttheconnectionbyusingthe"Ping"command:
• OpentheMS-DOS windoworcommandpromptwindow.
• Enterthecommand:
ping 192.168.1.254
Ifnoresponseisreceived, eithertheconnectionisnotworking, oryour
PC'sIPaddress isnotcompatiblewiththeWireless Router'sIPAddress.
(See nextitem.)
• IfyourPCisusingafixedIPAddress, itsIPAddress mustbewithintherange
192.168.1.1to192.168.1.253 tobecompatiblewiththeWireless Router'sde-
fault IPAddress of 192.168.1.254. Also, the NetworkMask mustbesetto
255.255.255.0. See Chapter4-PCConfiguration fordetailsoncheckingyour
PC'sTCP/IPsettings.
• Ensurethat yourPCandtheWireless Routerareonthesamenetworkseg-
ment. (Ifyoudon'thavearouter, thismustbethecase.)
• EnsureyouareusingthewiredLAN interface. TheWireless interface can
