Connecting Your RouterConnecting Your Router

Place your router in a location where it will be well ventilated. Do not
stack it with other devices or place it on carpet.

After ensuring that the power switch on the back of the router is
switched off, connect the router to an AC power outlet using the power
cord.

Connect your PC directly to any of the router’s four Ethernet ports using
a straight through cable (red label). Later you may connect 1 to 3 addi­tional Ethernet devices to the router’s built-in Ethernet hub.

Switch on the power for the router.

aution: To reduce the risk of fire, use only no. 26

AWG or larger telecommunications line cord.
This cord is used to connect your router’s DSL
port to your DSL jack, as shown in the following
illustration:

forms. On the Router Configuration page, the following information is
presented:

Router Information - Includes the model number, software version
number and options that have been enabled.

Easy Setup is a set of web forms designed to provide a quick and easy
setup of your router. Easy Setup is a permanent feature, accessible from
any computer platform with a web browser.

Easy Setup can assist you in getting your router up and running with a
basic configuration. The choices you make in the Easy Setup forms are
based on information about your LAN (Local Area Network) and infor­mation from your Network Service Provider.

Once you have used Easy Setup to establish a basic configuration with
the minimum settings needed for essential router functions, additional
configuration can be performed to utilize the many advanced features
included with your router. Advanced configuration is performed using
the Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI is available for advanced
network technicians who require direct access to all the commands and
features available with your router.

Click on the Easy Setup link to access the Easy Setup forms.

The first Easy Setup screen is for entering and reviewing information
about Wide Area Network (WAN) settings. Your Network Service Pro­vider can provide you with the information needed to correctly complete
these WAN settings.

If your interface is ATM-based, enter the VPI/VCI numbers.

If your interface is Frame Relay based, enter the DLCI numbers.

Your router supports any one of three available WAN protocols; PPP,
RFC 1483, or RFC 1483 MER (RFC 1490 or RFC 1490 MER if you use
frame relay). Your Network Service Provider should specify a WAN
protocol, and VPI/VCI or DLCI settings for you to use. To make your
selection, click on the button shown next to the appropriate protocol.

Bridging will forward all traffic to remote hosts that is not routed (non­IP) to the WAN.

• IP Routing will route all IP packets for remote hosts to the WAN.

• Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple worksta-

tions on your LAN to share a single, public IP address. All outgo­ing traffic appears to originate from the router’s IP address.

• NetBIOS is a PC networking protocol that can keep connections

open inadvertently. To avoid excess connection charges, such traf­fic should be blocked on any metered network service.

Domain Name Service (DNS) maps host names to IP addresses. DNS is
performed by Domain Name Servers. The domain name identifies the
default name for the network. You can set the router to obtain DNS
information automatically. You can also choose to configure DNS man­ually by making the required entries in the form. If you are configuring
DNS manually, you must enter at least one DNS IP address.
