”Route”
Route is used for the Router function. This is where you are joining 2 different networks together via the WI-MOD-E
refer
to Section 1.1
Normally the WI-MOD-E will only accept one routing rule, by using the Default Gateway IP Address on the Main Network
Page. If more than one routing rule is needed then a Routing Table is required, e.g. Multiple networks each with a
different IP range.
In the example below a routing rule needs to be entered into the Network A’s PC which will allow access between
Network A and Network B. This is can be entered at the command prompt as per instruction below.
Route PRINT will show all active routes on PC,
Route ADD will add a routing table to network,
route DELETE <
destination netmask gateway interface>
will delete the unwanted routing table
route CHANGE modifies an existing route.
Figure 84 - Route
An example of a routing table is shown for the configuration below.

Gateway IP 192.168.0.1
Gateway IP 192.168.2.51

Ethernet IP 192.168.2.50

Wireless IP 192.168.2.50
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
In the Network A PC a routing rule is to be set.
This will allow Network A & B to have access to each other. This is entered under cmd prompt.
Route ADD 192.168.2.0 MASK 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.191
This says access everything on network B (192.168.2.0) with the Mask of 255.255.255.0 on Network A via the Ethernet IP Interface
192.168.0.191
IP Address 192.168.2.0 will allow everything on this network to be shared by the router. When adding a routing table you will need to
enter this in. Once entered in the Router will determine whether to pass information over the router if it is addressed to do so or not.
For added security MAC address filtering could be added as mentioned earlier in Section 3.19 - Filtering”.
