Channel and SSID

Channel and SSID

Address Mapping

You must specify a common radio channel and SSID (Service Set ID) to be used by the ADSL Wireless Base Station and all of its wireless clients. Make sure you configure all of its clients to the same values.

4.6 Advanced settings webpages

When you click on the Advanced Settings tab, you will first have this warning window displayed. It is to warn people who are not used to changing the configuration of their wireless modem router that changing some of the device settings in Advanced Mode may cause this device to become unresponsive.

Advanced Users can click on "Yes, enter Advanced Mode" to access the different advanced settings.

It is recommended for non Advanced Users to click on "No".

4.6.1 NAT

Network Address Translation allows multiple users to access the Internet sharing one public IP.

Allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users. This also hides the internal network for increased privacy and security. Enter the Public IP address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter a range of internal IPs that will share the global IP into the "from" field.

Virtual Server

If you configure the ADSL Wireless Base Station as a virtual server, remote users accessing services such as web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the ADSL Wireless Base Station redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address).

For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the Private IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2 on port 80. Therefore, by just entering the IP address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at the local address to which you redirect them.
