Reference Guide for the Model RT210/RT211 ISDN Routers
Installing and Connecting 2-13
Connecting Through a Serial Port
For terminal emulation from a PC, you can use either Microsoft Terminal under Windows 3.1, or
HyperTerminal under Windows 95. Be sure to set the program for VT100 emulation, including
arrow keys. Serial port parameters are:
• 9600 bps
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• No parity
• No flow control
After the serial session is opened, refer to “Using the Built-in Interface Quick Setup” or “Using the
Built-In Interface Basic Setup” in Chapter 3.
Connecting Through a Telnet Connection
The NETGEAR Model RT210 and Model RT211 ISDN routers are shipped with a default IP
address of 1.1.1.1. If the router configuration is cleared, the IP address reverts to the default
address.
To make a Telnet call from a TCP/IP workstation, you must do one of the following:
• Set your workstation to a spare IP address on network 1.0.0.0 (netmask 255.0.0.0).
• Add a route to the static routing table of the workstation that indicates that network 1.0.0.0 can
be reached via the local LAN port.
After the Telnet connection is made, refer to “Using the Built-in Interface Quick Setup” or “Using
the Built-In Interface Basic Setup” in Chapter 3
Note: When you change the IP address of the router while connected through Telnet, you
lose the Telnet session. You must then use Telnet to access the new IP address and log in
again.
