Configuring Static Routes
Static routes provide additional routing information to your N300 wireless modem router.
Under usual circumstances, the N300 wireless modem router has adequate routing
information after it has been configured for Internet access, and you do not need to configure
additional static routes. You must configure static routes only for unusual cases such as
multiple routers or multiple IP subnets located on your network.
As an example of when a static route is needed, consider the following case:

N300 Wireless Dual Band ADSL2+ Modem Router DGND3300v2 User Manual
Your primary Internet access is through a cable modem to an ISP.
You have an ISDN router on your home network for connecting to the company where
you are employed. This router’s address on your LAN is
1
92.168.0.100.
Your company’s network address is 134.177.0.0.
When you first configured your N300 wireless modem router, two implicit static routes were
created. A default route was created with your ISP as the gateway, and a second static route
was created to your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. With this configuration, if you
attempt to access a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your N300 wireless modem router
forwards your request to the ISP. The ISP forwards your request to the company where you
are employed, and the request is likely to be denied by the company’s firewall.
In this case you must define a static route, telling your N300 wireless modem router that
134.177.0.0 should be accessed through the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100.
In this example:
The Destination IP Address and IP Subnet Mask fields specify that this static route applies
to all 134.177.x.x addresses.
The Gateway IP Address field specifies that all traffic for these addresses should be
forwarded to the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100.
A Metric value of 1 will work since the ISDN router is on the LAN.
Private is selected only as a precautionary security measure in case RIP is activated.
From the main menu, select
Advanced > Static Routes
. The Static Routes screen displays.
Figure 64.
To add or edit a static route:
1.
Click
Add
to open the Static Routes screen.

2.
In the Route Name field, type a name for this static route. (This is for identification purposes
only.)
3.
Select the
Private
check box if you want to limit access to the LAN only. If Private is
selected, the static route is not reported in RIP.
4.
Select the
Active
check box to make this route effective.
5.
Type the destination IP address of the final destination.
6.
Type the IP subnet mask for this destination.
If the destination is a single host, type
255.255.255.255
.
7.
Type the gateway IP address, which must be a router on the same LAN segment as the
N300 wireless modem router.
8.
Type a number between 1 and 15 as the metric value.
This represents the number of routers between your network and the destination. Usually,
a setting of 2 or 3 works, but if this is a direct connection, set it to 1.
9.
Click
Apply
to have the static route entered into the table.
Wireless Repeating (Also Called WDS)
The N300 Wireless Modem Router can be used with a wireless access point (AP) to build
large bridged wireless networks. Wireless repeating is a type of Wireless Distribution System
(WDS).
WARNING!
If you use the wireless repeating function, your options for
wireless security are limited to None or WEP. For more
information about wireless security, see
