Wireless-G Broadband Router

Follow these steps to set DMZ hosting:

1.Access the Router’s web-based utility by going to http://192.168.1.1 or the IP address of the Router. Go to the Applications & Gaming => Port Range Forward tab.

2.Disable or remove the entries you have entered for forwarding. Keep this information in case you want to use it at a later time.

3.Go to the Applications & Gaming => DMZ tab.

4.Select Enable next to DMZ. In the Client PC IP Address field, enter the IP address of the computer you want exposed to the Internet. This will bypass the NAT technology for that computer. Please refer to “Appendix E: Finding the MAC Address and IP Address for Your Ethernet Adapter” for details on getting an IP address.

5.Once completed with the configuration, click the Save Settings button.

9.I forgot my password, or the password prompt always appears when I am saving settings to the Router.

Reset the Router to factory default by pressing the Reset button for 10 seconds and then releasing it. If you are still getting prompted for a password when saving settings, then perform the following steps:

1.Access the Router’s web-based utility by going to http://192.168.1.1 or the IP address of the Router. Enter the default password admin, and click the Administration => Management tab.

2.Enter a different password in the Router Password field, and enter the same password in the second field to confirm the password.

3.Click the Save Settings button.

10.I am a PPPoE user, and I need to remove the proxy settings or the dial-up pop-up window.

If you have proxy settings, you need to disable these on your computer. Because the Router is the gateway for the Internet connection, the computer does not need any proxy settings to gain access. Please follow these directions to verify that you do not have any proxy settings and that the browser you use is set to connect directly to the LAN.

For Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher:

1.Click Start, Settings, and Control Panel. Double-click Internet Options.

2.Click the Connections tab.

3.Click the LAN settings button and remove anything that is checked.

4.Click the OK button to go back to the previous screen.

5.Click the option Never dial a connection. This will remove any dial-up pop-ups for PPPoE users.

For Netscape 4.7 or higher:

1.Start Netscape Navigator, and click Edit, Preferences, Advanced, and Proxies.

2.Make sure you have Direct connection to the Internet selected on this screen.

3.Close all the windows to finish.
