Advanced Setup Options
The options that are set by default when the X3 is installed are sufficient for most users. However, those that want or need to change the X3’s settings can do so using the Advanced Setup page. This chapter explains how to specify advanced options. The information in this chapter applies to you if:
•Your Internet service provider instructs you to enable, disable, or change the default settings for your X3 in order for it to work properly with your ADSL service. See How To Use the Advanced Options on page 31 for a table listing the Advanced Setup areas that you can customize.
•You need to change your Wide Area Network settings (for example, if you have a static IP address). See Changing Your WAN Settings on page 36 for more information.
•You want to change the default firewall settings (for example, if you have multiple computers connected to the Web, you can specify that one or more users receive an email alert if the network is attacked). See Changing Your Firewall Settings on page 37 for more information.
•You want to change your ADSL password. See Changing User Names and Passwords on page 38 for more information.
•You have customized your configuration and want to back it up for future use. See Backing Up Your Configuration on page 39 for more information.
•You want to add, remove, or change the IP Filters. See Using IP Filters on page 42 for more information.
