3 Internet Connectivity Dial-In Clients
Introduction If you want to set up initial Internet connectivity using the Home Install Wizard on
the Setup CD or the embedded Easy Setup, refer to the provided Installation and Setup Guide.
Access methods Depending on the configuration of the SpeedTouch™ you may have:
Direct access:
As soon as the initial configuration is finished, immediate and uninterrupted WAN access is provided.
Dial-in access:
Access must be explicitly established, that is by “dialling” into a Broadband Remote Access Server (BRAS).
Depending on the SpeedTouch™ configuration, dial-in access is provided via the SpeedTouch™’s Routed PPPoA or Routed PPPoE packet services with embedded PPP client.
Connection protocols The applied connection protocol model depends on the service profile you selected
to configure the SpeedTouch™ and should correspond with the Service Provider’s requirements. If, for instance, your ISP provides PPPoE, you should configure PPPoE.
You can find more information on connection protocols in the Internet Connection Configuration Guide.
Dial-in clients There are different ways to dial in, depending on the operating system on your
computer and your preferences.
If you have direct access, the remote organisation might ask for a user name and password on an Internet welcome page.
Dial-in method: can be used on following
operating system:

Internet Connectivity Dial-In Clients
Embedded PPP dial-in
clients
The SpeedTouch™’s embedded PPP dial-in client allows you to establish an Internet connection for computers residing on your local network, using only one computer of the network to control the client.
If this computer runs:
Any Operating System
you can always use the SpeedTouch™ Web pages. See “3.1 SpeedTouch™ Web Pages” on page 17 to proceed.
Windows XP
you can use the Windows XP Internet Gateway Device Control Client. See “3.2 Internet Gateway Device Control Agent” on page 19 to proceed.
Broadband host PPPoE
dial-in clients
You can also connect to the Internet using a Broadband PPPoE dial-in application. The PPP over Ethernet connection scenario provides PPP-like dial-in behaviour over the virtual Ethernet segment.
To be able to use a broadband dial-in application on your computer for connecting to the Internet, the SpeedTouch™ needs to be configured for Bridged Ethernet or Routed PPPoE (with PPPoE relay) via the SpeedTouch™ Home Install Wizard on the Setup CD or the embedded Easy Setup. .
If your computer runs ... you can use ...
Windows XP the Windows XP broadband dial-in client
Mac OS X a Mac OS X broadband dial-in client
a broadband PPPoE dial-in client provided by you Service Provider
Upon availability of OS-specific PPPoE dial-in client applications, the latter method is Operating System independent.
For PPPoE session connectivity from a Mac OS 8.6/9.x, a Windows 95/ 98(SE)/ME/2000 or a Linux system, a host PPPoE dial-in application is mandatory.

added to your Windows XP system:
UPnP™ (see “ SpeedTouch™ not detected by UPnP™ or IGD Control
Client” on page 72).
IGD Discovery and Control Client (see “ Adding IGD Discovery and
Control” on page 73).
UPnP™ is enabled on your SpeedTouch™. To enable UPnP, see “4.5.2 Game &
Application Sharing” on page 44.
Starting an Internet
session

Overview The Overview page summarizes the applications or games installed on a particular
local host on your network, for which the SpeedTouch™ should accept inbound initiated connections coming from the Internet.
Configure On the Configure page, you can:
Select Use UPnP to enable UPnP on the SpeedTouch™.
UPnP provides NAT-Traversal: UPnP aware applications on a PC will automatically create Hyper-NAT entries on the SpeedTouch™ for incoming traffic on the protocol ports this type of traffic needs. As a consequence these applications are able to traverse the SpeedTouch™ without the need for extra and manual configuration.
For security reasons you are able to configure the UPnP policy towards
Windows XP and UPnP aware applications and Operating Systems.
In case you select the Use Extended Security check box, only limited UPnP operation between a host running MS Windows XP and the SpeedTouch™ is allowed: A local host is:
NOT allowed to connect/disconnect the SpeedTouch™ Internet Gateway
Device (IGD) connection.
Allowed to add/delete Hyper-NAT entries only for its own IP address, not
for other local hosts.
If you clear the Use Extended Security check box, all UPnP- and IGD-based communication between any local host and the SpeedTouch™ is allowed.
UPnP is an architecture for transparent peer-to-peer connectivity of computers, intelligent appliances, and (wireless) devices. It enables seamless operation of a wide range of games and messaging applications.

4.5.7 Firewall
About the firewall The firewall allows you to secure traffic from and to the SpeedTouch™. There are
different security levels, depending on the degree of security you need.
Overview The Overview page summarizes the overall security policy configured on your
SpeedTouch™.
Configure On the Configure page you can select the security level of the SpeedTouch™.
Security Levels Select one of following security levels:
BlockAll:
All traffic from and to the Internet is blocked. Game and Application Sharing is not allowed by the firewall.
Standard:
All outgoing connections are allowed. All incoming connections are blocked, except for inbound connections assigned to a local host via Game and Application Sharing.
Disabled:
All in- and outgoing traffic is allowed to pass through your SpeedTouch™, including Game and Application Sharing. This is the default firewall level.
Although BlockAll should block all connections, some mandatory types of traffic such as DNS will still be relayed between LAN and WAN via the SpeedTouch™.
The firewall levels only have impact on the forward hook. This means that the handling of traffic from and to the Web pages of the SpeedTouch™ is independent of the selected firewall level.
Protocol checks will be performed on all accepted connections, irrespective of the chosen level. You can only disable protocol checks via the CLI.

You do not want to use the Network Address Translation engine of your
SpeedTouch™.
This device is running server applications (Web server,...) and you want it to be
accessible from the Internet.
This device has to be considered as the unique access point to your local
network (DMZ).
Assigning the public IP
address to a device
Proceed as follows:
1 In the Home Network menu, click Devices.
2 In the Pick a task list, click Assign the public IP address of a connection to a
device.
3 Click the Edit link of your Internet connection.

Resetting your
SpeedTouch™
You might consider a reset to factory defaults as described below.
You can choose between:

A reset to factory default settings deletes the configuration profile settings. Therefore, after the reset, a reconfiguration of your SpeedTouch™ will be needed.
Software reset Proceed as follows:
1 Go to the SpeedTouch™ Web pages.
2 In the menu, select SpeedTouch > Configuration.
3 In the Pick a task list, click Reset my SpeedTouch to default settings.
The SpeedTouch™ restarts.
4 The SpeedTouch™ returns to the SpeedTouch™ home page (unless the IP
address of your computer is not in the same subnet as the default IP address of the SpeedTouch™, being 192.168.1.254).
Hardware reset Proceed as follows:
1 Make sure the SpeedTouch™ is turned on.
2 Use a pen or an unfolded paperclip to push the recessed reset button on the
back panel. The reset button is marked with a red circle. Push it until the power LED lights red - this will take about 7 seconds.
3 Release the reset button.
4 The SpeedTouch™ restarts.
