configuration. Passwords are case sensitive and can be up to 8 alphanumeric

NAT (Network Address Translation)T
NAT allows PCs on your LAN to share a single external (Internet) IP Address.
This IP Address is supplied by your ISP. Use the following to determine
whether or nor you need NAT.
•
For Internet access, NAT
must be left On
unless all PCs on your LAN
have valid external IP Addresses.
•
If this device is not being used to provide shared Internet access, NAT is
not normally required. With NAT disabled, the FBR-1700TX will act as
a static router.
•
If NAT is disabled, the Firewall protection provided by the FBR-1700TX
is lost, and the
Advanced Internet
features (Virtual Servers, Special Ap-
plications, and Exposed Computer) are no longer available.
