Manually Configuring your Router
Enabling/Disabling Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP)
UPnP is yet another advanced feature offered by your Belkin Router. It is a technology
that offers seamless operation of voice messaging, video messaging, games, and other
applications that are UPnP-compliant.
Some applications require the Router’s firewall to be configured in a specific way to
operate properly. This usually requires opening TCP and UDP ports, and in some
instances, setting trigger ports. An application that is UPnP-compliant has the ability
to communicate with the Router, basically “telling” the Router which way it needs
the firewall configured. The Router ships with the UPnP feature disabled. If you are
using any applications that are UPnP-compliant, and wish to take advantage of the
UPnP features, you can enable the UPnP feature. Simply select “Enable” in the “UPnP
Enabling” section of the “Utilities” page. Click “Apply Changes” to save the change.
Enabling/Disabling Auto Firmware Update
This innovation provides the Router with the built-in capability to automatically
check for a new version of firmware and alert you that the new firmware is
available. When you log into the Router’s Web-Based Advanced User Interface,
the Router will perform a check to see if new firmware is available. If so, you will
be notified. You can choose to download the new version or ignore it. The Router
ships with this feature disabled. If you want to disable it, select “Enable” and
click “Apply Changes”.
Setting up your Computers
In order for your computer to properly communicate with your Router, you will need
to change your computer’s “TCP/IP/Ethernet” settings to “Obtain an IP address
automatically/Using DHCP”. This is normally the default setting in most home
computers.
You can set up the computer that is connected to the ADSL modem FIRST using these
steps. You can also use these steps to add computers to your Router after the Router
has been set up to connect to the Internet.
