Aolynk DR814Q ADSL2+ Broadband Router (hereinafter re provides four 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, and one USB port, making it easy to establish a LAN without additional expenses on switches.

The DR814Q, an ideal tool for SOHO (small office, home office) users, features built-in ADSL2+ technology, high-speed Internet access, and remote connectivity. It e nables LAN users to share high-speed broadband connection through the built-in NAT (network address translation) and DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) server and provides complete network security solutions to prevent hackers and invasions from outside. In addition, it meets the connections such as DHCP/static IP address, IPoA (IP over ATM), PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) and PPPoA (PPP over ATM).

The four options are described below.

1) DHCP/Static IP The IP address in this mode can be manually specified (Use the following IP Address)

or automatically assigned by your ISP (Obtain an IP Address Automatically). The former requires you to manually specify the DNS server address on the [DNS Relay] page. For details, refer to section 4.2.2 “DNS Relay”.

4) PPPoE PPPoE configuration is similar to PPPoA configuration, and therefore you can refer to

Table 4-3 for related description. Generally, ATM-related parameters can adopt default values. Refer to section 5.1 II. “QoS configuration” for parameter description.

Caution:

z Do not set the same VPI and VCI values for different services. z Two WAN services can be created at most.

4.2.2 DNS Relay

The DR814Q has the DNS relay function. When the DNS server address on your PC is the IP address of the LAN port, the DR814Q forwards the DNS query from your PC to the DNS server set on the DR814Q.

When your ISP changes the DNS server or you modify the connected ISP, there is no need to modify the IP address of the DNS server on your PC.

Click the [DNS] tab of the WAN setup page and the DNS relay setting page shown in Figure 4-8 appears. Type in the DNS server IP address(es) provided by your ISP. Generally, the IP address of the primary DNS server is used, and the secondary is adopted in case the primary one becomes unavailable.
