What type of firewall is the Wireless MAXg Router equipped
with?
The Wireless MAXg Router uses NAT and TCP/IP port
forwarding.
What is NAT?
Network Address Translation (NAT) translates multiple IP
addresses on the private LAN to one public address that is
sent out to the
Internet. This provides security since the IP
address of a computer on the LAN is not transmitted to
the Internet. The user can have multiple private addresses
behind the single address that was provided by the ISP.
What is DMZ?
DMZ stands for Demilitarised Zone. This feature allows
one IP address to be exposed to the Internet. DMZ allows
only one computer to be exposed when multiple TCP/IP
ports need to be open. If you want to use DMZ, you must
set your computer with a static IP.
If DMZ is used, does the exposed user share the public IP
with the Wireless MAXg Router?
No, all specific requests are forwarded to the DMZ host.
What should I do if I am unable to access my e-mail or the
Web page of my ISP?
You should contact your ISP to get the full URL and then
perform the following steps:
Note: Linux users can perform steps 4 and 5 after
opening a terminal.
1. Connect your broadband modem directly to one of
your computers.
