Useful Information on Internet Access 98
Configuration Examples
Note that such a connection is only set up when specific requests
are made. These can be for FTP file transfers, e-mails or down-
loading Web pages. Name resolution via broadcasts is not possi-
ble. If you wish to use the LAN-to-LAN link to access files and
printers in the Windows network, you need an IP-enabled server
that administers the name resolution for the Windows network.
As the IP address range, you can select one of the 256 class C
subnetworks designed for local LANs. Select a class C sub-network
in the range from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.0.

The Forum 523/524 uses a router function to access the Internet,
which means that it automatically establishes an Internet connec-
tion when required and terminates the connection after a certain
period of time if no data are being transmitted.
Unfortunately, programmes other than those typically intended to
access the Internet (such as your browser or your e-mail soft-
ware) may send out data packets which cause an Internet connec-
tion to be established, even if these programmes are not strictly
Internet-associated applications.
Examples of such programmes are the Microsoft
TM
XP
TM
operating
system, various multimedia programmes such as Realplayer
TM
and anti-virus applications that may establish an Internet connec-
tion for automatic updates (the so-called “phone home function”).
It is therefore highly advisable to limit ISP access by specifying
the maximum monthly connection time under
Connection time
per month in the Network : WAN : [Provider] menu on the web
console.
