Configuring Other Routers on your LAN
It is essential that all IP packets for devices not on the local LAN be passed to the Broadband
Router, so that they can be forwarded to the external LAN, WAN, or Internet. To achieve this,
the local LAN must be configured to use the Wireless Router as the Default Route or Default
Gateway.
Local Router
The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as the Wireless Router. This
router requires that the Default Route is the Broadband Router itself. Typically, routers have a
special entry for the Default Route. It should be configured as follows.
Destination IP Address
Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.
Network Mask
Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.
Gateway IP Address
The IP Address of the Wireless Router.

Other Routers on the Local LAN
Other routers on the local LAN must use the Wireless Router
’
s Local Router as the Default
Route. The entries will be the same as the Wireless Router's local router, with the exception of
the Gateway IP Address.
"
For a router with a direct connection to the Wireless Router's local Router, the Gateway IP
Address is the address of the Wireless Router's local router.
"
For routers which must forward packets to another router before reaching the Wireless
Router's local router, the Gateway IP Address is the address of the intermediate router.
