I forgot my administrator password, what do I do?
Reset the DIR-430 to factory default settings by holding down the reset button for
8 seconds. Please note that all configurations will be lost. It is advised to keep a
backup file of the configuration settings on a local PC in the event the DIR-430
needs to be reset.
Can my DIR-430 be a DSL modem as well?
No. Your DIR-430 provides firewall and VPN security to the internal network. Your
DIR-430 should be connected behind your DSL or Cable modem. Your DIR-430
acts as a simple host towards the Internet.
Does the DIR-430 support protocols other than IP?

networks. One reason is to save number of IP addresses on one side, the other,
to hide the internal IP addresses of the hosts.
