WAN
Wide Area Network (WAN) is the source of your Internet connection.
New Connection
Your router can support up to eight different connections. If you have multiple virtual
connections, you may need to utilize the static routing capabilities of the modem to pass
data correctly.
There are five types of WAN connections:
PPPoE Connection
PPPoA Connection
Static Connection
DHCP Connection
Bridge Connection
Before you make a new WAN connection, you should make sure you have an existing
Internet connection.

User Manual
PPPoE Connection
PPP, or point-to-point protocol, is a method of establishing a network connection/session
between network hosts. PPPoE is a protocol for encapsulating PPP frames in Ethernet
frames and is described in RFC 2516. PPPoE provides the ability to connect to a network
of hosts over a simple bridging access device to a remote access concentrator. With this
model, each router uses its own PPP stack. Access control, billing, and type of service
control can all be done on a per-user rather than per-site basis.

PPPoA Connection
PPPoA is also known as RFC 2364. It is a method of encapsulating PPP packets in ATM
cells that are carried over the DSL line. PPP, or point-to-point protocol, is a method of
establishing a network connection/session between network hosts. It usually provides a
mechanism of authenticating users. Logical link control (LLC) and virtual circuit (VC) are
two different methods of encapsulating the PPP packet. Contact your service provider to
determine which encapsulation is being used on your Internet connection.

Static Connection
Static connection type is used whenever a known static IP address is assigned to the
router. Additional addressing information such as the subnet mask and the default
gateway must also be specified. Up to three Domain Name Server (DNS) addresses can
be identified. These servers resolve the name of the computer to the IP address mapped
to it and thus enable you to access other web servers by typing the symbolic name (host
name).

LAN
The router is preconfigured to automatically provide IP addresses to all the computers in
the Local Area Network (LAN). Your router allows you to create and configure LAN
groups.
LAN Configuration
The router can support up to two LAN groups through different physical interfaces. These
interfaces include:
Ethernet
USB
You can use other LAN interfaces to a group except for the Ethernet interface, which is
assigned to LAN group 1. Each LAN group can then be configured with static IP address,
dynamic IP address, or be unmanaged (no IP).

This field enables you to change the IP address of the
router.
IP Address The default IP address of the router (as shown) is
192.168.1.1.
Netmask The default subnet mask of your router is 255.255.255.0.
This subnet allows the router to support 254 users. If you
want to support a larger number of users you can
change the subnet mask.
Default Gateway The default gateway is the routing device used to
forward all traffic that is not addressed to a station
within the local subnet. Your ISP provides you with the
IP address of the default gateway.
Host Name The host name is used in conjunction with the domain
name to uniquely identify the router. It can be any
alphanumeric word that does not contain spaces.
Domain The domain name is used in conjunction with the host
name to uniquely identify the router. To access the web
pages of the router you can type 192.168.1.1 (the IP
address) or mygateway1.ar7 (Host Name.Domain).
Enable DHCP Server Enables/disables DHCP. By default, your router has the
DHCP server (LAN side) enabled. If you already have a
DHCP server running on your network, you must disable
one of the two DHCP servers.
Assign ISP DNS,
SNTP
Enable/disables the Assign ISP DNS, SNTP feature when
the DHCP server of your router has been enabled. To
learn more, please refer to Assign ISP DNS, SNTP.
Start IP The Start IP Address is where the DHCP server starts
issuing IP addresses. This value must be greater than the
IP address value of the router. For example, if the IP
address of the router is 192.168.1.1 (default), then the
starting IP address must be 192.168.1.2 (or higher).
Note:
Note: If you change the start or end values, make sure
Note:Note:
the values are still within the same subnet as the router.
In other words, if the IP address of the router is
192.168.1.1 (default) and you change the DHCP
start/end IP addresses to be
192.168.1.2/192.168.1.100, you cannot communicate
Page 38 of 90
with the router if your host has DHCP enabled.
End IP 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 the
default gateway is 192.168.1.254. If the DHCP server
runs out of DHCP addresses, users do not get access to
network resources. If this happens, you can increase the
Ending IP address (to the limit of 254) or reduce the
lease time.
Note:
Note: If you change the start or end values, make sure
Note:Note:
the values are still within the same subnet as the IP
address of the router. In other words, if the IP address of
the router is 192.168.1.1 (default) and you change the
DHCP start/end IP addresses to be
192.168.1.2/192.168.1.100, you cannot communicate
with the router if your host has DHCP enabled.
User Manual
Lease Time The Lease Time is the amount of time that a network
user is allowed to maintain a network connection to the
router using the current dynamic IP address. At the end
of the Lease Time, the lease is either renewed or the
DHCP server issues a new IP. The amount of time is in
units of seconds. The default value is 3600 seconds (1
hour). The maximum value is 999999 seconds
(About 278 hours).
Enable DHCP Relay In addition to the DHCP server feature, the router
supports the DHCP relay function. When the router is
configured as DHCP server, it assigns the IP addresses to
the LAN clients. When the gateway is configured as
DHCP relay, it is responsible for forwarding the requests
and responses negotiated between the DHCP clients and
the server.
Relay IP The IP address of the DHCP relay server.
Server and Relay Off When the DHCP server and relay functions are turned
off, the network administrator must carefully configure
the IP address, Subnet Mask, and DNS settings of every
host on your network. Do not assign the same IP address
to more than one host. Also, your router must reside on
the same subnet as all the other hosts.

Assign ISP DNS, SNTP
When you enable the DHCP server, the router dynamically assigns IP addresses to
computers in the local network. The router provides its own LAN IP address (192.168.1.1)
as both the gateway and the DNS server.
The router has a choice of advertising its own IP address (192.168.1.1) as the DNS server
or providing the DNS that was received from the WAN. This can be configured by

Universal Plug and Play
Universal plug and play (UPnP), NAT, and firewall traversal allow traffic to pass through
the router for applications using the UPnP protocol. This feature requires one active WAN
connection. In addition, the computer should support this feature. In the presence of
multiple WAN connections, select a connection on which the incoming traffic is present,
for example, the default WAN connection.

IGMP Proxy
IP hosts use Internet group management protocol (IGMP) to report their multicast group
memberships to neighboring routers. Similarly, multicast routers use IGMP to discover
which of their hosts belong to multicast groups. Your router supports IGMP proxy that
handles IGMP messages. When enabled, your router acts as a proxy for a LAN host
making requests to join and leave multicast groups, or a multicast router sending
multicast packets to multicast groups on the WAN side.
IGMP Proxy

IGMP ProxyIGMP Proxy
Multicasting is a form of limited broadcast. UDP is used to send datagrams to all hosts
that belong to what is called a Host Group. A host group is a set of one or more hosts
identified by a single IP destination address. The following statements apply to host
groups:
Anyone can join or leave a host group at will.
There are no restrictions on a host’s location.
There are no restrictions on the number of members that may belong to a host
group.
A host may belong to multiple host groups.
Page 46 of 90
User Manual
Non-group members may send UDP datagrams to the host group.
Multicasting is useful when the same data needs to be sent to more than one device. For
instance, if one device is responsible for acquiring data that many other devices need,
then multicasting is a natural fit. Note that using multicasting as opposed to sending the
same data to individual devices uses less network bandwidth. The multicast feature also
enables you to receive multicast video streams from multicast servers.
The IGMP Proxy page allows you to enable multicast on available WAN and LAN
connections. You can configure the WAN or LAN interface as one of the following:
Upstream
Upstream The interface that IGMP requests from hosts are sent to the multicast
UpstreamUpstream
router.
Downstream
Downstream The interface data from the multicast router are sent to hosts in the
DownstreamDownstream
multicast group database.
Ignore
Ignore No IGMP request nor data multicast are forwarded.
IgnoreIgnore
You can perform one of the two options:
1. Configure one or more WAN interface as the upstream interface.
2. Configure one or more LAN interface as the upstream interface.

TR-068 WAN Access
The TR-068 WAN Access page enables you to give temporary permission to someone
(such as technical support staff) to be able to access your router from the WAN side.
From the moment the account is enabled the user is expected to log in within 20
minutes, otherwise the account expires. Once the user has logged in, if the session
remains inactive for more than 20 minutes, the user will be logged out and the account
expires.
