Wireless-G Broadband Router with 2 Phone Ports

NAT

Enabled/Disabled 

If this Router is hosting your network’s 

connection to the Internet, keep the default, 

Enabled

. If 

another  router  exists  on  your  network,  select 

Disabled

When the NAT setting is disabled, dynamic routing will be 

enabled.

Dynamic Routing (RIP)

Enabled/Disabled 

This  feature  enables  the  Router  to 

automatically adjust to physical changes in the network’s 

layout  and  exchange  routing  tables  with  the  other  

router(s).  The  Router  determines  the  network  packets’ 

route  based  on  the  fewest  number  of  hops  between 

the source and the destination. When the NAT setting is 

enabled,  the  Dynamic  Routing  feature  is  automatically 

disabled. When  the  NAT  setting  is  disabled,  this  feature 

is available. Select 

Enabled

 to use the Dynamic Routing 

feature.

Static Routing

A static route is a pre-determined pathway that network 

information must travel to reach a specific host or network. 

Enter  the  information  described  below  to  set  up  a  new 

static route.

Route Entries 

To set up a static route between the Router 

and  another  network,  select  a  number  from  the  drop-

down list. Click 

Delete This Entry

 to delete a static route.

Enter  Route  Name 

Enter  a  name  for  the  Route  here, 

using a maximum of 25 alphanumeric characters.

Destination LAN IP 

The Destination LAN IP is the address 

of the remote network or host to which you want to assign 

a static route.

Subnet  Mask 

The  Subnet  Mask  determines  which 

portion  of  a  Destination  LAN  IP  address  is  the  network 

portion, and which portion is the host portion. 

Gateway 

This is the IP address of the gateway device that 

allows  for  contact  between  the  Router  and  the  remote 

network or host.

Interface 

This interface tells you whether the Destination 

LAN IP address is on the 

LAN and Wireless

 (Ethernet and 

wireless networks) or the 

Internet

 

(WAN)

.

Click 

Show Routing Table

 to view the static routes you 

have already set up.

Advanced Routing > Routing Table

network(s), manual and Wi-Fi Protected Setup.

up your wireless network. If you have client devices, such 

as wireless adapters, that support Wi-Fi Protected Setup, 

then you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup.
