Chapter 3.0 Basic Installation & Setup

This chapter describes the procedures necessary to configure the basic functions of the router to allow internet access. The following infor

mation should be supplied by your ISP:

• Router using Classical IP

PPP Authentication Login Name

Password Depending on your ISP, some or all of these parameters need to be programmed into the router. Before attempting to configure the router, Corega suggest that you visit the support site of www.corega-international.com, and download a configuration file which may

help you with your particular installation. This should setup most of the parameters such that you only have to enter your username and password. To access the router, point your web browser at:

http://192.168.0.1

Note! For most users, a compatible IP address will be automatically allocated to each computer by the router’s internal DHCP server. If you cannot access the

router – check that the computer has been set to receive a dynamic IP address or manually configure a compatible IP address. From Windows: Start/Settings/Network & Dial Up Connections/Local Area Connection/Properties/TCP/IP

Internet Service Provider (ISP).

•

VCI: If you have uploaded a config file, this parameter will already be set. This is a value between 32-65535 and is provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

•

(Make sure that the router is connected to the ADSL line if you use Auto Detect.

•

Encapsulation: If you have uploaded a config file, this parameter will already be set. This will be set as either LLC or VC based, and is provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

WAN Connection

If you have uploaded a config file (see section 5-6), this parameter will already be set. WAN Connection type is the way the router works with DSLAM equipped in your ISP side. This ADSL Wireless router supports six connection types listed as below. Different countries, and different operators use different types of connection type. It is important to select the correct type for your network provider. If you are unsure about which WAN Connection Type, please consult your provider. -

- Gateway using PPPoE

- Gateway using PPPoA

- Gateway using Dynamic IP

- Gateway using Static IP

- Gateway using Classical IP (IP over ATM)

- Modem using LLC Encap

3-1-1 Gateway using PPPoE

• Login Name: Enter your ISP Username.

•

Password: Enter your ISP Password.

•

Connect-on-demand: Only enable this option if your ISP charges by the megabyte or by minutes (seconds) of line usage. Enabling this option will cause the router to connect to the ADSL line when there is a packet waiting to be transmitted. Set the

Max Idle Time with the length of time the router will remain in an

idle state before reconnecting to collect incoming data.

•

Keep Alive: This function keeps your PPPoE connection always active even when there is no data to transmit. However, in some situations, the PPPoE session cannot be built immediately after disconnection because the system on the ISP site may need a little time to restore. You may need to check with your ISP to find out how much time is required before the router can start to re-build the PPPoE session and then fill this in the “

Redial Period”.

•

Manual Connect/Disconnect: Allows the user to manual connect or disconnect the ADSL connection from the keyboard.

• I

P Address: This is the IP address of the WAN port. In most cases (default), this will be a DynamicIP address. In some cases, this will be a Static IP address

issued by your ISP. If this is the case, select Fixed, and enter the IP address.

issued by your ISP. If this is the case, select Fixed, and enter the IP address.

3-1-3 Gateway using Dynamic IP

Figure 8. Gateway using Dynamic IP

This connection type is the default setting of this router. Leave this setting on the column according to the following conditions:

1. You want to employ NAT. NAT allows you to use single IP address as the external one to share internet access from all of your PCs, as well as protect them from outside intruders.

2. Your ISP uses LLC Encapsulation and uses DHCP to assign an IP address when you connect to your ISP LLC encapsulation allows multiplexing of multiple protocols over a single ATM virtual connection (VC). You can find more information on RFC 2684.

ENGLISH

3-1-4 Gateway using Static IP

Figure 9. Gateway using Static IP

Choose this setting according to the following conditions:

1. You want to employ NAT. NAT allows you to use single IP address as the external one to share internet access for all of your PCs, as well as protect them from outside intruders.

2. Your ISP uses LLC Encapsulation and provides you with one or more IP addresses when you apply for the service. You can find more information on RFC 2684.

•

WAN IP Address: Enter one IP address provided by your ISP.

•

Subnet Mask: Enter the subnet mask values provided by your ISP.

•

Gateway IP Address: Your ISP will provide you with the Default Gateway IP Address.

•

Domain Name Server (DNS): Your ISP will provide you with at least one DNS IP Address. Multiple DNS IP settings are common. The first available DNS entry is used in most cases.

3-1-5 Gateway using Classical IP (IP over ATM)

Figure 10. Gateway using Classical IP

Choose this setting according to the following conditions:

1. You want to employ NAT. NAT allows you to use a single IP address as the external one to share internet access for all of your PCs, as well as protect them from outside intruders.

2. Your ISP uses

Classical IP connection type (use LLC encapsulation and routing protocol) and provides you with one or more IP addresses when you apply for the

service. You can find more information on RFC 2684.

•

WAN IP Address:Enter the IP address provided by your ISP.

•

Subnet Mask: Enter the subnet mask values provided by your ISP.

•

Gateway IP Address: Your ISP will provide you with the Default Gateway IP Address.

•

Domain Name Server (DNS): Your ISP will provide you with at least one DNS IP Address. Multiple DNS IP settings are common. The first available DNS entry is used in most cases.

ENGLISH

3-1-6 Modem using LLC Encaps

Figure 11. Modem Only

Choose this setting according to the following conditions:

1. Y

ou want this device acting as an ADSL modem.

Your ISP uses LLC encapsulation.

Your ISP may use DHCP to provide an IP address or to provide you with one or more IP addresses, as well as asking you to use PPPoA or PPPoE connection modes when you apply for the service. However, as you have chosen to make this device act as an modem, you have to know how to configure your PCs.

Note: When the router is configured in this mode, many of the routers features are disabled (firewall, filtering, etc). Therefore, the ability to configure these options from

the menu on the left had side of the screen is not available.

ENGLISH

3.2 Configure Wireless Security.

om the One-Page-Setup screen, select the Configure option from under the wireless section.

Figure 12. Configuring Wireless Security

The default wireless security setting is “disabled”. This is to ensure that all wireless devices can initially connect to the router. It is recommended that you enable wireless security on the router. Select either WEP or WPA-PSK security. All devices must use the same method of encryption.

3-2-1 WEP Encryption

(Wired Equivalent Privacy), WEP is an encryption mechanism used to protect your wireless data by providing a secure communications method. WEP uses a combination of either 64 or 128-bit keys to encrypt data that is transmitted between all points in a wireless network to ensure data security. To code/decode the data transmission, all points must use the identical key.

Figure 13. WEP Encryption

• Authentication Type: Select either Open System or Share Key as authentication type. If you are not sure, select Auto.

•

WEP Data Encryption: Select either “64Bit” or “128Bit” encryption algorithm from the drop-down list. There are two ways to generate WEP key:

• Passphrase: Enter an alphanumeric text string in this column then click the “Generate Keys” button. Four 64-bit encryption keys or one 128-bit

encryption key will be created automatically. You can enter the WEP key manually. You may need to enter the WEP key manually to join the existing wireless network. If you are not sure which one to use, check with your network administrator.
