Quick Setup

The Quick Setup screen allows the user to configure the router for DSL connectivity and Internet access. It also guides the user though the

WAN network setup first and then the LAN interface setup. You can either manually customize the router or follow the online instruction to

set up the router.

The following configuration considerations apply:

•

The WAN network operating mode operation depends on the service provider’s configuration in the Central Office and Broadband

Access Server for the PVC

•

If the service provider provides PPPoE service, then the connection selection depends on whether the LAN-side device (typically a

PC) is running a PPPoE client or whether the router is to run the PPPoE client. The router can support both cases simultaneously.

•

If some or none of the LAN-side devices do not run PPPoE client, then select PPPoE. If every LAN-side device is running a

PPPoE client, then select Bridge In PPPoE mode, the router also supports pass-through PPPoE sessions from the LAN side while

simultaneously running a PPPoE client from non-PPPoE LAN devices. In most cases, NAT and firewall should always be enabled

when PPPoE or PPPoA mode are selected, but they can be enabled or disabled by the user when MER or IPoA is selected, NAT

and firewall are always disabled when Bridge mode is selected.

•

Depending on the network operating mode, and whether NAPT and firewall are enabled or disabled, the main panel will display or

hide the NAPT/Firewall menu. For instance, at initial setup, the default network operating mode is Bridge. The main panel will not

show the NAPT and Firewall menu.

NOTE:

Up to sixteen PVC profiles can be configured and saved on the flash memory. To activate a particular PVC profile, you must navigate through all the Quick Setup

screens until the last summary screen, and then click on the Save/Reboot button.

4.1 Auto Quick Setup

The auto quick setup requires the DSL link to be up. The router will automatically detect the best connection type. You need only to follow

the online prompts.

1.

For PPPoE connections, simply enter your User ID and Password as provided by your ISP, then click Save & Reboot. For other connection

types, click on

Click Here for Other Connection Types

and follow the instructions to complete the setup.

2.

After the process is complete, you can use the DSL service.

Enter the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) values. Select Enable Quality of Service if required and click

Next.

2:

Choose a Connection Type and Encapsulation Mode.

Choosing different connection types provides different encapsulation modes.

•

PPPoA- VC/MUX, LLC/ENCAPSULATION

•

PPPoE- LLC/SNAP BRIDGING, VC/MUX

•

MER- LLC/SNAP-BRIDGING, VC/MUX

•

IPoA- LLC/SNAP-ROUTING, VC MUX

•

Bridging- LLC/SNAP-BRIDGING, VC/MUX

4.2.1 PPP over ATM (PPPoA) and PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

Follow Steps 1 through to 3 of Manual Quick Setup

4:

Select the PPP over ATM (PPPoA) or PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) radio button and click Next. The following screen appears.

PPP Username/PPP Password

The PPP Username and the PPP password requirements are dependent on the particular requirements of the ISP or the DSL service

provider. The web user interface allows a maximum of 256 characters for the PPP username and a maximum of 32 characters for PPP

password.

Enable Fullcone NAT

Known as one-to-one NAT, all requests from the same internal IP address and port are mapped to the same external IP address and port.

An external host can send a packet to the internal host, by sending a packet to the mapped external address.

Dial on Demand

The router can be configured to disconnect if there is no activity for a period of time by selecting the Dial on demand check box. When the

checkbox is ticked, you need to enter the inactivity timeout period. The timeout period ranges from 1 minute to 4320 minutes.

PPP IP Extension

The PPP IP Extension is a special feature deployed by some service providers. Unless your service provider specially requires this setup, do

not select it.

The PPP IP Extension supports the following conditions:

•

Allows only one PC on the LAN

•

The public IP address assigned by the remote side using the PPP/IPCP protocol is actually not used on the WAN PPP interface.

Instead, it is forwarded to the PC LAN interface through DHCP. Only one PC on the LAN can be connected to the remote, since the

DHCP server within the router has a single IP address to assign to a LAN device.

•

NAT and firewall are disabled when this option is selected.

•

The router becomes the default gateway and DNS server to the PC through DHCP using the LAN interface IP address.

•

The router extends the IP subnet at the remote service provider to the LAN PC. That is, the PC becomes a host belonging to the

same IP subnet.

•

The router bridges the IP packets between WAN and LAN ports, unless the packet is addressed to the router’s LAN IP address.
