ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide If you are not logging in for the first time, the router will direct you to the “Home Page”. See Fig 1-6. Figure 1-6 : Basic Home Screen 5.2 Quick Start By default the ADSL Router has being configured to PPP connection and user is only required to enter the username and password (as specified by the local ISP) to connect to the Internet.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Note. . . After clicking on Connect, please be sure to click on “Save Settings” to register the username / password or any other changes. Click here to save settings Figure 1-7 : Quick Start Page 5.3 LAN / DHCP Configuration On one side of your ADSL Router, you have your own Local Area network (LAN) connections. This is where you plug in your local computers to the ADSL Router.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Note: If you change the start or end values, make sure the values are still within the same subnet as the gateways IP address. In other words, if the gateways IP address is 192.168.1.1 (default) and you change the DHCP start/end IP addresses to be 192.128.1.2/192.128.1.100, you will not be able to communicate to the ADSL Router if your PC has DHCP enabled. In addition to the DHCP server feature, the ADSL Router supports the DHCP relay function.

Your ADSL Router’s default IP address and subnet mask are 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0; this subnet mask will allow the ADSL Router to support 254 users. If you want to support a larger number of users you can change the subnet mask; but remember.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Figure 1-23 : LAN Configuration 5.6.6 LAN Clients To add a LAN client select LAN clients, under LAN. If DHCP is used, all DHCP clients are automatically assigned. If a fixed IP address server is on the LAN and you want this server to be visible via the WAN, you must add its IP address. Once the IP address has been added to you can apply Port Forwarding and Access Control rules to this IP address.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide 5.6.7 Ethernet Switch Configuration The IGMP Snooping prevents the switch from flooding the LAN ports with multicast frames, and will instead direct them to the CPU port for processing. Users are able to specify connection speed and set their values accordingly from the following available options. See Fig 1-25. • Auto • 10/Half Duplex • 10/Full Duplex • 100/Half Duplex • 100/Full Duplex Figure 1-25 : Ethernet Switch Configuration 5.6.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Figure 1-26 : UPnP 5.6.9 SNTP SNTP (Simple Network Timing Protocol) is a protocol used to synchronize the system time to the public SNTP servers. When the SNTP feature is enabled, your DSL600EW will start querying for the time clock information from the primary SNTP server. If it fails to get a valid response within the “timeout” period, it will try for “retry” number of times, before moving to the Secondary SNTP server.

ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Figure 1-34 : Port Forwarding 5.6.17 MAC Filtering (Bridge Filters) The bridge filtering mechanism provides a way for the users to define rules to allow/deny frames through the bridge based on source MAC address, destination MAC address and/or frame type. When bridge filtering is enabled, each frame is examined against the each defined filter rules sequentially.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Figure 1-35 : MAC Filtering (Bridge Filters) 5.6.18 Access Control Access control allows you to open the access from the Internet LAN to the following management ports of the DSL600ER: • • • • • • Telnet Web FTP TFTP Secure Shell (SSH) SNMP Fig 1-36 shows the default Access Control screen. The Access Control is disabled by default, remote management from the WAN side IP addresses is denied, most services from the LAN side IP addresses is enabled.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Figure 1-36 : Access Control 5.6.19 Static Routing If the ADSL Router is connected to more than one network, you may need to set up a static route between them. A static route is a pre-defined pathway that network information must travel to reach a specific host or network. You can use static routing to allow different IP domain users to access the Internet through the ADSL Router.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Figure 1-37 : Static Routing 5.6.20 Dynamic Routing Dynamic Routing allows the ADSL Router to automatically adjust to physical changes in the network. The ADSL Router, using the RIP protocol, determines the network packets’ route based on the fewest number of hops between the source and the destination. The RIP protocol regularly broadcasts routing information to other ADSL Routers on the network.
ADSL 4-Port Ethernet USB Wireless-G Router User Guide Figure 1-38 : Dynamic Routing 5.6.21 Routing Table Routing Table shows the information used by routers when making packet forwarding decisions. Packets are routed according to the packet' s destination IP address. See Fig 1-39.
