Settings

Local Time: Click Set Time to set the date and time manually, or set the router to obtain time auto- matically by connecting to a Network Time Protocol server (NTP). Correct time setting is important for activities such as event scheduling and logging.

IP Address: (Default 192.168.0.1.) The Internet Protocol (IP) address of your router is private and cannot be seen on the Internet. You can change this number if needed, but it is usually not necessary to do so.

Subnet Mask: (Default 255.255.255.0.) The subnet mask (subnetwork mask) is an address used to direct messages to a specified network segment (i.e., a subnet). You should not change this address unless directed to do so by your network administrator.

Local Domain Name (optional): If desired, you can enter a name here to identify your wireless network.

DDNS: (Default Off) This stands for Dynamic Domain Name System. You should click On to enable this feature if you host a web site or FTP site visited by users outside your local area network. This will assure access to your site even if the IP address is changed by your Internet Service Provider.

Names and password: If you enable DDNS, enter the name of the server hosting your site, and the site host name, user name and password required for access.

Universal Plug and Play: (Default On) This option makes the router compliant with the Universal Plug and Play standard, which allows compatibility with equipment made by different manufacturers. You should leave this feature turned on unless directed to turn it off by your network administrator.
