If your Dynamic DNS provider allows the use of wildcards in resolving your URL, you can
select the
Use Wildcards
check box to activate this feature. For example, the wildcard
feature causes *.yourhost.dyndns.org to be aliased to the same IP address as
yourhost.dyndns.org.

Click
Apply
to save your settings.
Note:
If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address such as 192.168.x.x
or 10.x.x.x, the Dynamic DNS service will not work because private
addresses are not routed on the Internet.
LAN Setup
The LAN Setup screen allows configuration of LAN IP services such as DHCP and Routing
Information Protocol (RIP). The wireless modem router is shipped preconfigured to use
private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act as a DHCP server. The wireless modem
router’s default LAN IP configuration is as follows:
LAN IP address
Subnet mask
. 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the private address range designated by the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF
) for use in private networks, and should be
suitable in most applications. If your network has a requirement to use a different IP
addressing scheme, you can make those changes in the LAN IP Setup screen.
Note:
If you change the LAN IP address of the wireless modem router
while connected through the browser, you are disconnected. To
reconnect, open a new connection to the new IP address and log in.

Note:
The default DHCP and TCP/IP values work for most users.
Device Name
. This is an abbreviated name of the wireless modem router. You see
this name for the router in Network Explorer on Windows systems.
Use Auto IP
. Select this check box if you want the wireless modem router to set up
the
LAN IP
addresses automatically.
IP Address
. The LAN IP address of the wireless modem router.
IP Subnet Mask
. The LAN subnet mask of the wireless modem router. Combined
with the IP address, the IP subnet mask allows a device to know which other
addresses are local to it, and which have to be reached through a gateway or wireless
modem router.
Use Router as DHCP Server
. By default, the wireless modem router functions as a
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, allowing it to assign IP, DNS
server, and default gateway addresses to all computers connected to the wireless
modem router’s LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of
the router. IP addresses are assigned to the attached PCs from a pool of addresses
specified in this screen. Each pool address is tested before it is assigned to avoid
duplicate addresses on the LAN.
For most applications, the default DHCP and TCP/IP settings of the router are
satisfactory.
Reserved IP Addresses Setup
. When you specify a reserved IP address for a
computer on the LAN, that computer always receives the same IP address each time
it accesses the router’s DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be assigned to
servers that require permanent IP settings.

To reserve an IP address:
1.
Select
Advanced > LAN Setup
and click the
Add
button.
2.
In the
IP Address
field, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server. Choose an
IP address from the router’s LAN subnet, such as 192.168.0.x.
3.
Type the MAC address of the computer or server.
Tip:
If the computer is already present on your network, copy its MAC
address from the Attached Devices screen and paste it here.
4.
Click
Apply
to enter the reserved address into the table.
Note:
The reserved address is not assigned until the next time the
computer contacts the router’s DHCP server. Reboot the computer
or access its IP configuration to force a DHCP release and renew.
To edit or delete a reserved address entry:
1.
Select the radio button next to the reserved address that you want to edit or delete.

Set Up Quality of Service (QoS)
Quality of Service (QoS) is an advanced feature that can be used to prioritize some types of
traffic ahead of others. The modem router can provide QoS prioritization over the wireless
link and on the Internet connection.
The modem router supports Wi-Fi Multimedia Quality of Service (WMM QoS) to prioritize
wireless voice and video traffic over the wireless link. WMM QoS provides prioritization of
wireless data packets from different applications based on four access categories: voice,
video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the benefits of WMM QoS,
both it and the client running that application
has to
be WMM enabled. Legacy applications
that do not support WMM, and applications that do not require QoS, are assigned to the best
effort category, which receives a lower priority than voice and video.
