INTRODUCTION
5� Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL
Secure connections typically require a user name and password, and
are used where security is important� Secure connections include:
Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, often used to connect
remotely to an office network
The “Bring Your Own Access” program from America Online (AOL),
which lets you use AOL through broadband provided by another
cable or DSL service
Most online banking websites
Many commercial websites that require a user name and password
to access your account
Secure connections can be interrupted by a computer’s power
management setting, which causes it to “go to sleep�” The simplest
solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by rerunning the VPN or
AOL software, or by re-logging into the secure website�
A second alternative is to change your computer’s power management
settings so it does not go to sleep; however, this may not be appropriate
for portable computers� To change your power management setting
under Windows, see the “Power Options” item in the Control Panel�
If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs, and
AOL, please review the steps above to be sure you have addressed
these issues�

Wireless Router an ideal solution for your home or small office network�
NAT IP Address Sharing

single IP address assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider
while saving the cost of adding additional IP addresses to your Internet
service account�

The Router supports a variety of networking environments including Mac
OS

and others� All that is needed is an Internet browser and a network
adapter that supports TCP/IP (the standard language of the Internet)�
Patent-Pending Network Status Display
Lighted LEDs on the front of the Router indicate which functions are in
operation� You’ll know at-a-glance whether your Router is connected to
the Internet� This feature eliminates the need for advanced software and
status-monitoring procedures�
Web-Based Advanced User Interface
You can set up the Router’s advanced functions easily through your web
browser, without having to install additional software onto the computer�
There are no disks to install or keep track of and, best of all, you can
make changes and perform setup functions from any computer on the
network quickly and easily�
SPI Firewall
Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network
from a wide array of common hacker attacks including IP Spoofing,
Land Attack, Ping of Death (PoD), Denial of Service (DoS), IP with zero
length, Smurf Attack, TCP Null Scan, SYN flood, UDP flooding, Tear
Drop Attack, ICMP defect, RIP defect, and fragment flooding�
Integrated 10/100 4-Port Switch
The Router has a built-in, four-port network switch to allow your wired
computers to share printers, data and MP3 files, digital photos, and
much more� The switch features automatic detection so it will adjust to
the speed of connected devices� The switch will transfer data between
computers and the Internet simultaneously without interrupting or
consuming resources�

messaging, video messaging, games, and other applications that are
UPnP-compliant�
Support for VPN Pass-Through
If you connect to your office network from home using a VPN
connection, your Router will allow your VPN-equipped computer to pass
through the Router and to your office network�
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) on-board makes
for the easiest possible connection of a network� The DHCP server will
assign IP addresses to each computer automatically so there is no need
for a complicated networking setup�

automatic software determines your network settings for you and sets
up the Router for connection to your Internet Service Provider (ISP)� In a

NOTE:
Setup Assistant software is compatible with Windows 2000,
XP, and Vista; and Mac OS X v10�x� If you are using another operating

described in this User Manual (see page 20)�
Integrated G
+
Wireless Access Point
G
+
is an exciting new wireless technology that achieves data rates of
up to 150Mbps� Actual throughput is typically lower than the connected
data rate and will vary depending on your networking environment�
NOTE:
The standard transmission rate—150Mbps—is the physical data
rate� Actual data throughput will be lower�
MAC Address Filtering
For added security, you can set up a list of MAC addresses (unique
client identifiers) that are allowed access to your network� Every
computer has its own MAC address� Simply enter these MAC addresses
into a list using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface and you can
control access to your network�
