Appendices Appendix A: Troubleshooting A.1 Troubleshooting Guide This section provides possible solutions to problems regarding the installation and operation of the Corinex ADSL2+ Wireless Gateway G. Read the description below to solve your problems. If you can not find an answer here, check the Corinex website at www.corinex.com. Computer networking can sometimes be “tricky” when many components must work together to function properly for the ultimate network system.
Appendices I have got all that, it still doesn’t work... • Make sure that your TCP/IP settings are set to automatically obtaining IP address and gateway address. If the DHCP server is not running on the network, than set the TCP/IP configuration manually as described in the chapter 3.2. • Switch off all computers. This will ensure that the computer’s IP address will be obtained from the Gateway.
Appendices 7. Can you PING the WAN IP? Your ISP should have provided the IP address of their server. If you can ping the Gateway and your protocols are configured correctly, you should be able to ping the ISPs network. If you cannot PING the ISPs network, make sure you are using the correct protocols with the correct VPI VCI values. 8. Make sure NAT is enabled for your connection. If NAT is disabled the Gateway will not route frames correctly (except in Bridge connection). I can’t connect to the Gateway. 1.
Appendices The DSL Link LED is always off. 1. Make sure you have DSL service. You should get some kind of information from your ISP that states that DSL service is installed. You can usually tell if the service is installed by listening to the phone line; you will hear some high-pitched noise. If you do not hear high-pitched noise, contact your ISP. 2. Verify that the phone line is connected directly to the wall and to the line input on the Gateway.
Appendices A.2 Frequently Asked Questions What is the maximum number of IP addresses that the Gateway will support? The Gateway will support up to 253 IP addresses. Does the Gateway support IPX or AppleTalk? No. TCP/IP is the only protocol standard for the Internet and has become the global standard for communications.
Appendices then restored. Obtain and flash the latest firmware release that is readily available on the Corinex website, www.corinex.com. How will I be notified of new firmware upgrades for the Gateway? All Corinex firmware upgrades are posted on the Corinex website at www.corinex.com, where they can be downloaded for free. To upgrade the Gateway’s firmware, use the Tools tab of the Gateway’s web-based utility.
Appendices Can I run an application from a remote computer over the wireless network? This will depend on whether or not the application is designed to be used over a network. Consult the application’s documentation to determine if it supports operation over a network. What is the IEEE 802.11g standard? It is one of the IEEE standards for wireless networks. The 802.11g standard allows wireless networking hardware from different manufacturers to communicate, provided that the hardware complies with the 802.
Appendices but the trade-off produces a signal that is, in effect, louder and thus easier to detect, rovided that the receiver knows the parameters of the spread-spectrum signal being broadcast. If a receiver is not tuned to the right frequency, a spread-spectrum signal looks like background noise. There are two main alternatives, Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS).
Appendices starts blinking, it means that the reset process is complete. The default settings are then restored. How do I resolve issues with signal loss? There is no way to know the exact range of your wireless network without testing. Every obstacle placed between the Gateway and a wireless PC will create signal loss. Lead glass, metal, concrete floors, water and walls will inhibit the signal and reduce range.
Appendices Appendix B Wireless Security A Brief Overview Whenever data - in the form of files, emails, or messages - is transmitted over your wireless network, it is open to attacks. Wireless networking is inherently risky because it broadcasts information on radio waves. Just like signals from your cellular or cordless phone can be intercepted, signals from your wireless network can also be compromised. What are the risks inherent in wireless networking? Read on.
Appendices Even keeping your network settings, such as the SSID and the channel, secret won’t prevent a hacker from listening for those beacon messages and stealing that information. This is why most experts in wireless networking strongly recommend the use of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). WEP encryption scrambles your wireless signals so they can only be recognized within your wireless network. But even WEP has its problems.
Appendices Active Attacks Hackers use Active Attacks for three purposes: 1) stealing data, 2) using your network, and 3) modifying your network so it’s easier to hack in the next time. In an Active Attack, the hacker has gained access to all of your network settings (SSID, WEP keys, etc.) and is in your network. Once in your wireless network, the hacker has access to all open resources and transmitted data on the network.
Appendices B.1 Maximizing Wireless Security Security experts will all tell you the same thing: Nothing is guaranteed. No technology is secure by itself. An unfortunate axiom is that building the better mousetrap can often create a better mouse. This is why, in the examples below, your implementation and administration of network security measures is the key to maximizing wireless security.
Appendices 3) Network Devices With every wireless networking device you use, keep in mind that network settings (SSID, WEP keys, etc.) are stored in its firmware. If they get into the hands of a hacker, so do all of your settings. So keep an eye on them. 4) Administrator passwords Your network administrator is the only person who can change network settings. If a hacker gets a hold of the administrator’s password, he, too, can change those settings. So, make it harder for a hacker to get that information.
Appendices 7) Firewalls Once a hacker has broken into your wireless network, if it is connected to your wired network, they’ll have access to that, too. This means that the hacker has effectively used your wireless network as a backdoor through your firewall, which you’ve put in place to protect your network from just this kind of attack via the Internet. You can use the same firewall technology to protect your wired network from hackers coming in through your wireless network as you did for the Internet.
Appendices Current encryption technology offers 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption. If you are using 64-bit WEP, swap out your old wireless units for 128-bit encryption right away. Where encryption is concerned, the bigger and more complex, the better. A WEP key is a string of hexadecimal characters that your wireless network uses in two ways. First, nodes in your wireless network are identified with a common WEP key. Second, these WEP keys encrypt and decrypt data sent over your wireless network.
Appendices Appendix C Glossary 10BaseT - An Ethernet standard that uses twisted wire pairs. 100BaseTX - IEEE physical layer specification for 100 Mbps over two pairs of Category 5 UTP or STP wire. 1000BASE-T - A 100 Mbps technology based on the Ethernet/CD network access method. Provides half-duplex (CSMA/CD) and full-duplex 1000 Mbps Ethernet service over Category 5 links as defined by ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-A. Topology rules for 1000BASE-T are the same as those used for 100BASE-T.
Appendices Backbone – The part of a network that connects most of the systems and networks together and handles the most data. Bandwidth – 1. Measure of the information capacity of a transmission channel, in terms of how much data the facility can transmit in a fixed amount of time; expressed in bits per second (bps). 2. The difference between the highest and lowest frequencies of a band that can be passed by a transmission medium without undue distortion, such as the AM band 535 to 1705 kilohertz.
Appendices Browser - A browser is an application program that provides a way to look at and interact with all the information on the World Wide Web or PC. The word “browser” seems to have originated prior to the Web as a generic term for user interfaces that let you browse text files online. Buffer - A storage area used for handling data in transit. Buffers are often used to compensate for differences in processing speed between network devices.
Appendices cable has a maximum throughput of 100 Mbps and is usually utilized for 100BaseTX networks. CAT 5e - The additional cabling performance parameters of return loss and farend crosstalk (FEXT) specified for 1000BASE-T and not specified for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX are related to differences in the signaling implementation. 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX signaling is unidirectional—signals are transmitted in one direction on a single wire pair.
Appendices depending on how long a user is likely to require the Internet connection at a particular location. It’s especially useful in education and other environments where users change frequently. Using very short leases, DHCP can dynamically reconfigure networks in which there are more computers than there are available IP addresses. DHCP supports static addresses for computers containing Web servers that need a permanent IP address.
Appendices Dynamic IP Address - IP address that is automatically assigned to a client station in a TCP/IP network, typically by a DHCP server. Network devices that serve multiple users, such as servers and printers, are usually assigned static IP addresses. Dynamic Routing - The ability for a router to forward data via a different route based on the current conditions of the communications circuits.
Appendices Full Duplex - The ability of a networking device to receive and transmit data simultaneously. Gateway - A system that interconnects networks. Half Duplex - Data transmission that can occur in two directions over a single line, but only one direction at a time. Hardware - The physical aspect of computers, telecommunications, and other information technology devices. HTTP (HyperText Transport Protocol) - The communications protocol used to connect to servers on the World Wide Web.
Appendices LAN (Local Area Network) - The computers and networking products that make up the network in your home or office. Latency - The time delay between when the first bit of a packet is received and the last bit is forwarded. MAC Address - The MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique number assigned by the manufacturer to any Ethernet networking device, such as a network adapter, that allows the network to identify it at the hardware level.
Appendices Network Mask - also known as the “Subnet Mask.” NIC (Network Interface Card) - A board installed in a computer system, usually a PC, to provide network communication capabilities to and from that computer system. Also called an adapter. Node - A network junction or connection point, typically a computer or work station.
Appendices Port Mirroring - Port mirroring, also known as a roving analysis port, is a method of monitoring network traffic that forwards a copy of each incoming and outgoing packet from one port of a network switch to another port where the packet can be studied. A network administrator uses port mirroring as a diagnostic tool or debugging feature, especially when fending off an attack. It enables the administrator to keep close track of switch performance and alter it if necessary.
Appendices Roaming - The ability to take a wireless device from one access point’s range to another without losing the connection. RTS (Request To Send) - A packet sent when a computer has data to transmit. The computer will wait for a CTS (Clear To Send) message before sending data. Server - Any computer whose function in a network is to provide user access to files, printing, communications, and other services.
Appendices Switch - 1. Device that is the central point of connection for computers and other devices in a network, so data can be shared at full transmission speeds. 2. A device for making, breaking, or changing the connections in an electrical circuit. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) - A method (protocol) used along with the Internet Protocol (Internet Protocol) to send data in the form of message units between computers over the Internet.
Appendices provide sequencing of the packets that the data arrives in. This means that the application program that uses UDP must be able to make sure that the entire message has arrived and is in the right order. Network applications that want to save processing time because they have very small data units to exchange (and therefore very little message reassembling to do) may prefer UDP to TCP. Upgrade - To replace existing software or firmware with a newer version.
Appendices WINIPCFG - Configuration utility based on the Win32 API for querying, defining, and managing IP addresses within a network. A commonly used utility for configuring networks with static IP addresses. WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) - A group of computers and associated devices that communicate with each other wirelessly. Workgroup - Two or more individuals that share files and databases.
