Chapter 4: Advanced Features and Configuration

Important

Do not turn off or reset the router while the firmware is being upgraded. This may cause problems with the router.

7 After the firmware upgrade is complete, return to the Status window and make sure that the new firmware version and date are shown.

8 Close the Upgrade Firmware window to return to the Advanced Features/Configuration window.

Using the PC Database

You can use the PC Database whenever you need to select one, several, or all of the computers on your network for a special purpose. This could include setting up virtual servers, DMZ hosting, access control, or many other purposes.

DHCP clients on your network are automatically added to the database. The router always assigns them the same IP address, so there is no need to reserve an IP address. This means that you do not need to assign static IP addresses to computers on your LAN, although you can add static IP addresses to the PC Database if you want.
