ENR1504 Features
The Uniden ENR1504 10/100 Ethernet Cable/DSL Router
provides many easy-to-use advanced features, described
below.
INTERNET ACCESS FEATURES
•
DSL & Cable Modem Compatible: Allows you to
connect to either DSL or Cable modems with Ethernet
supported.
•
Share High-Speed Internet Access: Your ISP gives
you a single WAN IP Address that can be shared among
all computers connected to the LAN. This is known as
a
Private Network . The computers connected to the
router (LAN) are hidden from the Internet. This process
is called Network Address Translation or
NAT .
•
PPPoE Support: The ENR1504 supports Point-to-
Point Protocol over Ethernet or PPPoE . If you use a
cable modem or DSL to connect to the Internet, you may
need this feature enabled.
•
Keep-Alive: When you use a PPPoE account, your ISP
may disconnect your PC if it remains inactive for a long
period of time. The keep-alive feature sends a data
packet over the connection at a designated time interval
to make sure the Internet connection remains active.
•
Dial-on-Demand: For PPPoE accounts, this feature
activates the Internet connection during the boot-up
stage, or only when using the applications which require
Internet access, such as Internet Explorer.
•
Static or Dynamic IP Address: Supports both Static
and Dynamic IP Addresses provided by your ISP.

LAN FEATURES
•
Four 10/100 Ethernet Ports: 4-port dual-speed
(10/100 Mbps) fast Ethernet switch allows you to create
or extend your LAN.
•
Auto MDI/MDI-X: Accepts both straight-through and
crossover networking cables, avoiding the confusion of
which type of cable is necessary.
ROUTER/SECURITY FEATURES
•
DHCP Server: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) automatically issues LAN IP Addresses to PCs
and other Internet devices on your LAN.
•
NAT Protection: Network Address Translation (NAT)
allows all LAN computers to share a single WAN IP
Address while hiding all LAN computers from external
sources.
•
Stateful Packet Inspection: All Stateful Internet
Sessions (i.e. TCP) are monitored for malicious and
erroneous packets, protecting your network from
hackers.
•
DoS Protection: Denial of Service (DoS) attacks
overload your router with invalid packets and connection
requests, using so many resources that your router
crashes and Internet access is no longer available.
The ENR1504
protects against DoS attacks.
CONFIGURATION & MANAGEMENT FEATURES

Web-Based Configuration : No software installation is
required to configure the Router
