8.3 What You Need To Know
The information in this section can help you configure the screens for your WAN and LAN
connections.
8.3.1 Configuring Your Internet Connection
The actual physical connection determines whether the MWR102 ports are LAN or WAN ports.
There are two separate IP networks, one inside the LAN network and the other outside the WAN
network as shown next.
Figure 22 LAN and WAN IP Addresses (implies wired WAN connection)
The LAN parameters of the MWR102 are preset in the factory with the following values:
IP address of 192.168.100.1 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits)
DHCP server enabled with 32 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.100.33.
These parameters should work for the majority of installations. If your ISP gives you explicit DNS
server address(es), read the embedded Web-Based Management Interface help regarding what
fields need to be configured.
8.3.2 WAN MAC Address
The MAC address screen allows users to configure the WAN port's MAC address by either using
the factory default or cloning the MAC address from a computer on your LAN. Choose Factory
Default to select the factory assigned default MAC Address.
Otherwise, click Clone the computer's MAC address - IP Address and enter the IP address of
the computer on the LAN whose MAC you are cloning. Once it is successfully configured, the
address will be copied to configuration file. It is recommended that you clone the MAC address
prior to hooking up the WAN Port.
