Router configuration
This chapter will explain how to set up Internet access and how to take
advantage of additional functions and settings of your router with advanced
configuration.
If you intend to use a computer connected via dLAN to configure the router,
you must set up the dLAN network first. For more information, please see
“Configuring the dLAN network with the MicroLink dLAN Configuration Wiz-
ard” on page 29.
The configuration of the MicroLink (dLAN) ISDN Router takes place in the fol-
lowing stages:
Check the network settings of the computer on the local network and
modify them as necessary
Set up Internet access
Configure additional router functions
For configuring the network and setting up Internet access, we recommend
using the setup wizard, which will help you configure the necessary settings
(“Setting up Internet access using the setup wizard ” on page 15). Alterna-
tively, you may also set up Internet access using browser-based configuration
(“Setting up Internet access manually” on page 16). The MicroLink (dLAN)
ISDN Router is already optimally pre-configured for simple Internet access.
The additional functions of the router must be set up manually using the
browser-based configuration (“Advanced configuration” on page 18).
If you have switched the router's power off and back on, or reset the router
using the 'Factory Default' button, you must then also restart all of the con-
nected computers to update the network settings.
