Configuring Other Routers on your LAN
It is essential that all IP packets for devices not on the local LAN be passed to the Wireless
ADSL Router, so that they can be forwarded to the external LAN, WAN, or Internet. To
achieve this, the local LAN must be configured to use the Wireless ADSL Router as the
Default Route or Default Gateway.
Local Router
The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as the Wireless ADSL
Router. This router requires that the Default Route is the Wireless ADSL Router itself. Typi-
cally, routers have a special entry for the Default Route. It should be configured as follows.
Destination IP Address
Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.
Network Mask
Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.
Gateway IP Address
The IP Address of the Wireless ADSL Router.

Other Routers on the Local LAN
Other routers on the local LAN must use the Wireless ADSL Router's Local Router as the
Default Route. The entries will be the same as the Wireless ADSL Router's local router, with
the exception of the Gateway IP Address.
• For a router with a direct connection to the Wireless ADSL Router's local Router, the
Gateway IP Address is the address of the Wireless ADSL Router's local router.
• For routers which must forward packets to another router before reaching the Wireless
ADSL Router's local router, the Gateway IP Address is the address of the intermediate
router.
