Usage

1.2.1

Internet access

Your Sinope568+ can also be used for high speed Internet connections. The TCP/IP standards, most

commonly used for using the Internet, are supported by the home gateway device. The PPPoE

connections in dial-up or dial-in mode are also possible. In order to use your Sinope568+ for Internet

access, there must be a DSLAM installed at a provider company's infrastructure near you. DSLAM is a

rack of ADSL line cards that links many customer ADSL connections to a single high speed ine. A typical

Internet access application is shown on figure below.

You can also use NAT (Network Address Translation) services that your Sinope568+ provides when

setting up an Internet connection. This feature allows multiple users on LAN to use the Internet connection,

basing on one IP address. The DNS server and DNS relaying is also supported.

Security

Connecting your computer to the Internet exposes it to a wide range of risks. The Sinope568+ wireless

home gateway comes with security functions to safeguard your system and data. Three types of interfaces

can be controlled by the Firewall: Internal (LAN), external (WAN) and DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone). A DMZ is

usually used by a company that wants to host its own Internet services without sacrificing unauthorized

access to its private network. Typically, the DMZ contains devices accessible to Internet traffic such as

HTTP, FTP, DNS and SMTP servers. You can configure the Firewall to allow or block access from one

interface type to another interface type.

You can configure the Firewall by using a default Security level, by Firewall port filters, by Firewall

validators and by Security triggers.

RES

(Reset button)

This button is used to reset the configuration of the home gateway to factory default values. You must

hold this button while the home gateway is starting-up until ALM led will start flashing fast (about 30

seconds). Sinope568+ will use factory default settings only for the time it is running. If you want to

preserve factory default settings save the configuration.

Use a straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable to connect your Sinope568+ home gateway to a

computer or any other device. Up to four devices can be connected without using external Ethernet

switch. It is possible to manage the settings of the home gateway with telnet connection using this port.

The factory setting for IP address is 192.168.1.1.
