Chapter 6. Basic Setting

6.3PRIMARY SETUP - STATIC IP ADDRESS

LAN IP Address. The router’s LAN IP address and the gateway address for computers on your network (LAN and WLAN). In most cases, do not change the default value (192.168.123.254).

LAN Subnet Mask. Default is 255.255.255.0

WAN Type. Static IP Address.

The following fields will appear when the WAN Type is Static IP Address. Other fields will appear when the WAN Type is changed. The following information must be provided by your ISP:

WAN IP Address. The router’s Internet (WAN) IP address.

WAN Subnet Mask. Default is 255.255.255.0

WAN Gateway. The IP address for the ISP that connects this router to the Internet. To verify that your ISP is up, ping this gateway address.

Primary DNS. The Internet server used to translate names into IP addresses.

Secondary DNS. Optional.

NAT. By default, Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled. This allows the router to share a single Internet (WAN) IP address with multiple computers connected to the LAN or WLAN. If you are using the router only as a firewall or wireless access point, you may want to disable NAT.

Tip: If you disable NAT, you may need to have a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to your clients (or manually enter static IP addresses). You may also need to assign routing information.

After making changes, click Save and Reboot to restart the router. To restore the last saved settings, click Undo.

To assign virtual servers, click Virtual Computers [C]. See 6.8, “Virtual Computers.” To read on-screen information on this page, click Help.
