Enter Static IP Address

1.

On the

PPP Static IP

window, you may

enter a static IP address if your service

provider has assigned one (not required).

2.

To continue to the

Interface Options

window, click

Select Interface Options

1.

On the

Interface Options

window, select

the desired options:

•

Use Firewall:

Enable firewall protection.

•

Use Attack Detection System:

Enable WAN attack protection.

•

Use Universal Plug-n-Play:

Enable devices to discover and control each other via UPnP over the network.

•

RIP:

Routing Information Protocol (For more information, see page 83.)

-

Version 1:

Allows RIP version 1 to be

transmitted/received on the

selected interface. Currently,

RIPv1 is seldom used, but

supported on the SpeedStream

router.

-

Version 2:

Allows RIP version 2 to be

transmitted/received on the

selected interface. This would be

the most common choice.

-

Versions 1 & 2:

Simultaneously supports RIP

versions 1 and 2 on the selected

interface.

-

Active Mode:

In enabled, the router will receive

routing updates on the selected

interface and will broadcast regular routing updates to other routers. If not enabled (default),

the router will receive routing updates on this interface, but will not broadcast routing tables.

NAT/NAPT:

Enable Network Address Translation (NAT) and/or Network Address Port Translation (NAPT).

For more information on using NAT and NAPT, see page 65.

-

Disabled:

Disable both NAT and NAPT (for example, if setting up static routes).

-

NAT:

Enable NAT only and specify the destination IP address for incoming packets on the selected

WAN interface.

-

NAPT:

Enable NAPT only to handle multiple addresses based on port forwarding rules.

-

NAT & NAPT:

Enable concurrent NAT and NAPT

Note

Depending on your configuration, NAT is sometimes enabled by default. Disable NAT only in

advanced situations where your ISP has assigned static IP addresses.

On the

PPP Options

window, select one

or multiple setting(s):

•

indow,

Dial-up Only

:

Only active when you manually

connect.

Autoconnect on Disconnect:

If the connection gets dropped (line

error, router reboot, DSL line drop,

etc.), the PPP client automatically

attempts to reconnect as soon as the

error is resolved. This is like an

“always on” WAN connection.

Use Idle Timeout:

If the connection sits without transmitting for the specified time, the router will log out the PPP

connection. This helps relieve Internet congestion at the ISP level. The SpeedStream router also

provides a

Connect on Demand

feature wherein the router automatically reconnects when you

attempt to use the WAN connection.

Idle Timeout

cannot be used with

Autoconnect on

Disconnect

Host

►

Setup |

Host

The

Host Configuration

window allows you to change the host IP address, netmask, default router and

host name. The information in this section is auto-generated and should not be changed unless your ISP

directs you to do so; for example, if you have been assigned a static IP address.

Specify the Host Configuration Settings

1.

If your ISP has assigned a static IP

address for this machine, enter that IP

address and subnet mask.

2.

Enter the default router address if other

than that specified.

3.

Enter the host name if other than

speedstream

.

4. Click

Save Settings

.

A confirmation window displays notification that the new setting will not take effect until you reboot

the router. You may do so at this point or later.

5.

To reboot the router, click

Reboot

on the confirmation window.

The

System Reboot

window displays with a countdown while the router is rebooting. When finished,

the

System Summary

window displays.

DHCP

►

Setup |

DHCP

DHCP, the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, describes the means by which a system can connect to

a network and obtain the necessary information for communication upon that network. The information in

this section is auto-generated and should not be changed unless your ISP directs you to do so; for

example, if you have been assigned a static IP address.

IP Address Restrictions

Certain restrictions apply to the range of IP addresses specified by the parameters

Start IP Range

,

End

IP Range

, and

IP Netmask

defined above. These restrictions are as follows:

The range of IP addresses may extend over only one IP subnet.

•

The

ma

ximum size of the address pool that may be managed by the DHCP server is 64. Therefore,

the range of addresses must not exceed 64.

The range of IP addresses should not include any IP address maintained internally by your

SpeedStream device for other purposes. This includes the device's LAN-side static IP address, as well
