INTROUCTION IP Share device is designed for IP address simplification and conservation, as it enables private IP Internet works that use non-registered IP addresses to connect to the Internet. It usually connects two networks together, and translates the private (not globally unique) addresses in the internal network into single legal address before packets are forwarded onto another network. Therefore, only one IP address is needed for the entire network to the outside world.

PPP OVER ETHERNET (PPPOE) What is PPPoE? PPPoE is known as a dial-up DSL service. It is designed to integrate the broadband services into the current widely deployed, easy-to-use, and low-cost dial-up-access networking infrastructure. Thus, customer can get greater access speed without changing the operation concept. How can I know I am using PPPoE? A PPPoE client software provided by our ISP should be installed onto your computer first.
FAQ Factory Reset If for any reason, e.g. password being forgotten, you have to reset this device to factory default settings. By performing the Factory Reset, the current settings will be lost and the settings are reseted to default. The fctory default values is detailed in the section Factory Default Settings. Figure 26 “I can't find the product using the GUI Setup Software” For the GUI Setup Software to find the device, it has to be accessed from a client.
addresses on a LAN with an existing DHCP server may cause problems throughout a network. It is recommended you disable other DHCP serves on the network if you plan on using this product on the network. IP address conflict When you see the message box prompted for IP address conflict, this means two or more workstations has the same IP address. If you have setup the device as a DHCP server, please run the "winipcfg" utility to “release” all current configuration first, then “renew” the IP information again.
Figure 27 B. Choose the "Virtual Server" tab: C. Enter one of the port numbers that your application requires and press "Browse". Figure 28 D.

Figure 32 Check the physical connectivity of local network. Check if both the LEDs of Local and Global on the product’s front panel are green. If yes, go to next step. Otherwise, make sure you are using the correct cables and the cables are connected to the network devices properly. Check the physical connectivity of the broadband device. Examine the LED of LAN port and the LED of the broadband signal input on the Cable Modem/xDSL Modem.
Diagnosis TCP/IP Network Diagnosis Execute WINIPCFG.EXE or PING.EXE for TCP/IP network diagnosis. WINIPCFG The WINIPCFG program (for Win95, 98, and 98Me) is used to gather information about the TCP/IP connections that are active on your system. It cannot be used to dynamically adjust TCP/IP connections. You can also renew leases (if allowed by the network), and get the current IP address assignments through this program. From Windows, go to Start, click Run, enter WINIPCFG, and click OK.
