Chapter 3 - Your Gateway At A Glance

The ADSL2+ Ethernet & USB Combo may have different ports and LEDs. Let’s take a look at the different options. Depending on your model, it may have some or all of the features listed below.

3.1 Ports and Buttons

Reset and Restore to Factory Defaults: The restore to factory defaults feature will set the ADSL Router to its factory default configuration by resetting the ADSL Router. You may need to place the ADSL Router into its factory defaults if the configuration is changed; you lose the ability to interface to the ADSL Router via the web interface, or following a software upgrade. To reset the ADSL Router, simply press the reset button for about ~ 10 seconds. The ADSL Router will be reset to its factory defaults and after about 30 ~ 40 seconds the ADSL Router will become operational again.
LAN (local area network) ETHERNET port: connects to Ethernet network devices, such as a PC, hub, switch, or routers. Some ADSL Router came with a single LAN connection and some come with four LAN connections. Depending on the connection, you may need a cross over cable or a straight through cable.
Power is where you connect the power. Make sure to observe the proper power requirements. The required power is 9 volts.
USB (universal serial port): connects to a PC’s USB port. The ADSL Router only supports Window’s based PCs via an RNDIS driver (included in the software). For model with USB port ONLY.
DSL port: This is the WAN interface that connects directly to your phone line.

Chapter 4 - Setting Up the ADSL Router

This section will guide you through your ADSL Router’s configuration. The ADSL Router is shipped with a standard PPP configuration.
The basic tabs consist of features which are catered for basic users.

4.1 Logging into your ADSL Router

To configure your ADSL Router, open your web browser. You may get an error message at this point; this is normal. Type the default IP address (192.168.1.1) or login.router on the web address bar.
NOTE: Before setting up your ADSL Router, make sure you have followed the
easy start guide. You should have your computers configured for DHCP mode and have proxies disabled on your browser. Upon accessing the ADSL Router, if the browser still displays a login redirection screen, you should check your browser's setting and ensure that the JavaScript support is enabled. If the screen shown in Figure 1-4 is not attainable, you must delete your temporary Internet files to clear the web cache.
Upon entering the default IP address or the short-cut name (login.router), if the user is logging for the first time, the user will be brought to the “Quick Start” page. See Start page is meant for basic users whom only require easy connectivity to the Internet without worrying about any other advance configuration setting. If you are in doubt for what content to enter for the Protocol, VPI and VCI, please contact your Service Provider for assistance.

ADSL2+ Ethernet USB Combo Router - User Guide
For those who have their routers configured, you will be directed to the “Basic Home” page. See Figure 1-5.
Figure 1-5 : Basic Home

4.2 Quick Start

If you have already configured your router and wish to change your current configuration, click on the ‘Quick Start’ link. Figure 1-6 will appear.
Figure 1-6 : Quick Start Page
Page 15 of 67
ADSL2+ Ethernet USB Combo Router - User Guide

4.3 LAN / DHCP Configuration

On one side of your ADSL Router, you have your own Local Area Network (LAN) connections. This is where you plug in your local computers to the ADSL Router. The ADSL Router is normally configured to automatically provide all the PC's on your network with Internet addresses.
To enable or disable DHCP, click Basic, then select LAN Configuration. The Start IP Address is where the DHCP server starts issuing IP addresses. This value must be greater than the ADSL Router IP address value. For example if the ADSL Router IP address is 192.168.1.1 (default) than the starting IP address must be 192.168.1. 2 (or higher).
The End IP Address is where the DHCP server stops issuing IP addresses. The ending address cannot exceed a subnet limit of 254. Hence the max value for our default gateway is
192.168.1.254. If the DHCP server runs out of DHCP addresses, users will not get access to network resources. If this happens you can increase the Ending IP address (to the limit of 255) or reduce the lease time.
The Lease Time is the amount of time a network user will be allowed connection to the ADSL Router with their current dynamic IP address. The amount of time is in units of minutes; the default value is 3600 minutes (60 hours).
Note: If you change the start or end values, make sure the values are still within the same subnet as the gateways IP address. In other words, if the gateways IP address is 192.168.1.1 (default) and you change the DHCP start/end IP addresses to be 192.128.1.2/192.128.1.100, you will not be able to communicate to the ADSL Router if your PC has DHCP enabled.
In addition to the DHCP server feature, the ADSL Router supports the DHCP relay function. When the ADSL Router is configured as DHCP server, it assigns the IP addresses to the LAN clients. When the ADSL Router is configured as DHCP relay, it is responsible for forwarding the requests and responses negotiating between the DHCP clients and the server.
By turning off the DHCP server and relay the network administrator must carefully configure the IP address, Subnet Mask and DNS settings of every computer on your network. Do not assign the same IP address to more than one computer and your ADSL Router must be on the same subnet as all the other computers. See Figure 1-7.

ADSL2+ Ethernet USB Combo Router - User Guide

4.4.1 Ping Test

Once you have your ADSL Router configured, ensure you can ping the network. Type the target address that you want to ping. If your PC is connected to the ADSL Router via the default DHCP configuration, you should be able to ping the network address 192.168.1.1. See
Figure 1-10. If your ISP has provided their server address, try to ping the address. If the pings for both the WAN and the LAN sides are complete and you have the proper protocols configured, you should be able to surf the Internet. By default when you select ping test, the ADSL Router will ping itself 3 times. The ADSL Router passed the Ping test; this basically means that the TCP/IP protocol is up and running. If the first Ping test does not pass, the TCP/IP protocol is not loaded for some reason; you should restart the ADSL Router.
Figure 1-10 : Ping Test Screen

4.4.2 Modem Test

This test can be used to check whether your Modem is properly connected to the Network. Select your connection from the list and press the
Figure 1-11 : Modem Test
‘Test’ button. See Figure 1-11.

ADSL2+ Ethernet USB Combo Router - User Guide

4.5 Advanced

This mode is catered for advance users, a brief explanation of the links are listed as shown below. See
Figure 1-12.
Figure 1-12 : Advanced Screen

4.5.1 WAN Connection

The Wide Area Network (WAN) connection exists on the other side of the ADSL Router, also referred to as a broadband connection. This WAN connection is different for every WAN supplier. Most of the configuration you will perform will be for WAN connection.
Page 20 of 67
ADSL2+ Ethernet USB Combo Router - User Guide

4.5.2 New Connection

A new connection is a virtual connection. Your ADSL Router can support up to 8 different (unique) virtual connections. If you have multiple different virtual connections, you may need to utilize the static and dynamic routing capabilities of the modem to pass data correctly. Refer to Figure 1-13.
