DSL Modem User Manual
I have an FTP or Web server on my network. How can I make it available to users on the Internet?
For a Web server, enable port forwarding for port 8088 to the IP address of the server and set up the Web server to receive on that port, as well. (Configuring the server to use a static IP address is recommended.)
For an FTP server, enable port forwarding for port 21 to the IP address of the server. (Configuring the server to use a static IP address is recommended.)
Connections
How many computers can be connected through the Modem?
The Modem is capable of 254 connections, but it is recommended to have no more than 45 connections. As you increase the number of connections, you decrease the available speed for each computer.
Security
What is the default username for the Modem?
The default username for the router is “admin” and the default password is “password” (all lower case, no quotation marks). To activate the password to protect the Modem, change the default password. Remote management will not be available on the Modem until the default password is changed.
Does the Modem function as a firewall?
Yes. The Modem provides its security through the use of NAT firewall, which acts as a physical barrier between your network and the Internet.
What is NAT and how does it protect my network?
NAT (Network Address Translation) is a type of security that masks the private IP addresses of the computers on your network with a single public IP address. With NAT, the private IP address of the computers on your network is never transmitted over the Internet.
Which Virtual Private Networking (VPN) protocols are supported?
The Modem supports
64
