Manage IGMP Proxying
IGMP proxying allows a computer on the local area network (LAN) to receive the multicast
traffic it is interested in from the Internet. If you do not need this feature, leave it disabled,
which is the default setting.

1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the
network.
2.

Manage NAT Filtering
Network Address Translation (NAT) determines how the modem router processes inbound
traffic. Secured NAT protects computers on the LAN from attacks from the Internet but might
prevent some Internet games, point-to-point applications, or multimedia applications from
working. Open NAT provides a much less secured firewall but allows almost all Internet
applications to work. Secured NAT is the default setting.
To change the default NAT filtering settings:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type
.
A login screen displays.
3.
Enter the user name and password for the modem router.

Manage the SIP Application-Level Gateway
The application-level gateway (ALG) for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is enabled by
default for enhanced address and port translation. However, some types of VoIP and video
traffic might not work well when the SIP ALG is enabled. For this reason, the modem router
provides the option to disable the SIP ALG.

Manage the Modem Router’s LAN IP Address Settings
The modem router is preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act as
a DHCP server. The modem router’s default LAN IP configuration is as follows:
LAN IP address
. 192.168.0.1 (This is the same as www.routerlogin.net and
www.routerlogin.com.)
Subnet mask
. 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private networks
and are suitable for most applications. The IP address and subnet mask identify which
addresses are local to a specific device and which must be reached through a gateway or
modem router. You might want to change these settings if you need a specific IP subnet that
one or more devices on the network use, or if competing subnets use the same IP scheme.
To change the LAN IP address settings:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type
.
A login screen displays.
3.
Enter the user name and password for the modem router.

changes take effect.
To reconnect, close your browser, relaunch it, and log in to the modem router at its new
LAN IP address.
Manage the Router Information Protocol Settings
Router Information Protocol (RIP) lets the modem router exchange routing information with
other routers. By default, RIP is enabled in both directions (in and out) without a particular
RIP version.
To manage the RIP settings:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type

information that it receives. This is the default setting.
Out Only
. The modem router broadcasts its routing table periodically but does not
incorporate the RIP information that it receives.
In Only
. The modem router incorporates the RIP information that it receives but does
not broadcast its routing table.
7.
In the
RIP Version
menu, select one of the following options:
Disabled
. The RIP version is disabled. This is the default setting.
RIP-1
. This format is universally supported. It is adequate for most networks, unless
you are using an unusual network setup.
RIP-2B
or
RIP-2M
. This format carries more information. Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M
send the routing data in RIP-2 format. RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting. RIP-2M
uses multicasting.
