2. Apply. Apply the changes that you made.

3. Cancel. Discard changes.
4. Test. Connect to the NETGEAR website. If you connect successfully, your settings work, and you can clickLogout to exit these screens.

For a wireless connection, the SSID, (also known as the wireless network name), and the wireless security settings must be the same for the router and wireless computers or wireless adapters. NETGEAR strongly recommends that you use wireless security.

The router is pre-configured with WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK mixed mode and uses a unique SSID and passphrase. This information is printed on the label on the bottom of the router. Use this information to setup your WiFi computer and devices.

This chapter addresses the following:

• Planning Your Wireless Network
• Manually Configure Your Wireless Settings
  Use Push 'N' Connect (WPS) to Configure Your Wireless Network

Note: Computers can connect wirelessly at a range of several hundred feet. If you do not use wireless security, this can allow others outside your immediate area to access your network.

Planning Your Wireless Network

For compliance and compatibility between similar products in your area, the operating channel and region must be set correctly.

To configure the wireless network, you can either specify the wireless settings, or you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to automatically set the SSID and implement WPA/WPA2 security.

• To manually configure the wireless settings, you must know the following:

• SSID. The default SSID for the router is NETGEAR-3G.

• The wireless mode (802.11n, 802.11g, or 802.11b) that each wireless adapter supports.
• Wireless security option. To successfully implement wireless security, check each wireless adapter to determine which wireless security option it supports.

See Manually Configure Your Wireless Settings on page 28.

• Push 'N' Connect (WPS) implements WPA/WPA2 wireless security on the router and your wireless computer or device at the same time. The wireless computer or device must be compatible with WPS.

See Use Push 'N' Connect (WPS) to Configure Your Wireless Network on page 32.

Wireless Placement and Range Guidelines

The range of your wireless connection can vary significantly based on the physical placement of the router. The latency, data throughput performance, and notebook power consumption of wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration choices.

For best results, place your router according to the following guidelines:

Near the center of the area in which your computers will operate.
- In an elevated location, such as a high shelf, where the wirelessly connected computers have line-of-sight access (even if through walls).
- Away from sources of interference, such as microwave ovens, and 2.4 GHz cordless phones (see Interference Reduction Table on page 100).
- Away from large metal surfaces.
- Put the antenna in a vertical position to provide the best side-to-side coverage. Put the antenna in a horizontal position to provide the best up-and-down coverage.
- If using multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different radio frequency channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing between adjacent access points is 5 channels (for example, use Channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11).

The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security settings and placement. WEP connections can take slightly longer to establish. Also, WEP encryption can consume more battery power on a notebook computer.

Wireless Security Options

Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11n wireless networks at a maximum range of up to 300 feet. Such distances can allow others outside your immediate area to access your network.

Unlike wired network data, your wireless data transmissions can extend beyond your walls and can be received by anyone with a compatible adapter. For this reason, use the security features of your wireless equipment. The Mobile Broadband 11n Wireless Router provides highly effective security features, which are covered in detail in this chapter. Deploy the security features appropriate to your needs.

Each router is preconfigured for WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK mixed-mode, and comes with a unique SSID and passphrase for each router.

There are several ways you can enhance the security of your wireless network:

Figure 1. Wireless Security

• Restrict access based on MAC address. You can allow only trusted PCs to connect so that unknown PCs cannot wirelessly connect to the router. Restricting access by MAC address adds an obstacle against unwanted access to your network, but the data broadcast over the wireless link is fully exposed.
• Turn off the broadcast of the wireless network name (SSID). If you disable broadcast of the SSID, only devices that have the correct SSID can connect. This nullifies wireless network "discovery" feature of some products, such as Windows XP, but the data is still exposed.
• WEP. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption provides data security. WEP Shared Key authentication and WEP data encryption block all but the most determined eavesdropper. This data encryption mode has been superseded by WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK.
• WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (AES). Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) using a pre-shared key to perform authentication and generate the initial data encryption keys. The very strong authentication along with dynamic per frame re-keying of WPA makes it virtually impossible to compromise.

For more information about wireless technology, click the link to the online document Wireless Networking Basics in Appendix A.

Manually Configure Your Wireless Settings

Note: If you use a wireless computer to change the wireless network name (SSID) or wireless security, you will be disconnected when you click Apply. To avoid this occurrence, connect your computer directly to the router with an Ethernet cable while you are making changes.

To view or manually configure the wireless settings:

1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to Your Router on page 12.
2. Select Wireless Settings from the main menu. The settings for this screen are explained in Table 6.
3. Select the region in which the router will operate.
4. For initial configuration and test, leave the other settings unchanged.
5. To save your changes, click Apply.
6. Configure and test your computers for wireless connectivity.

Set up your wireless computers with the same SSID and wireless security settings as your router. Check that they have a wireless link and are able to obtain an IP address by DHCP from the router. If there is interference, adjust the channel.

Table 1.

Settings		Description
Wireless Network	Name (SSID)	TheSSID is also known as the wireless network name. Enter a 32-character (maximum) name in this field. This field is case-sensitive. When there is more than one wireless network, SSIDs provide a means for separating the traffic. To join a network, a wireless computer or device must use theSSID.
	Region	The location where the router is used.
	Channel	The wireless channel used by the gateway. The default is Auto. Do not change the channel unless you experience interference (shown by lost connections or slow data transfers). If this happens, you might need to try different channels to see which works best.
	Mode	The default is Up to 145 Mbps.

Table 1.

Settings		Description
Security Options	None	Use this setting to establish wireless connectivity before implementing wireless security. NETGEAR strongly recommends that you implement wireless security.
	WEP	Use encryption keys and data encryption for data security. You can select 64-bit or 128-bit encryption. See Configuring WEP on page 29.
	WPA-PSK (TKIP)	Allow only computers configured with WPA to connect to the router. See Configuring WPA, WPA2, or WPA + WPA2 on page 31.
	WPA2-PSK (AES)	Allow only computers configured with WPA2 to connect to the router. See Configuring WPA, WPA2, or WPA + WPA2 on page 31.
	WPA-PSK (TKIP) + WPA2-PSK (AES)	Allow computers configured with either WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK security to connect to the router. See Configuring WPA, WPA2, or WPA + WPA2 on page 31.

Configuring WEP

Note: If you use a wireless computer to configure wireless security settings, you will be disconnected when you click Apply. Reconfigure your wireless computer to match the new settings, or access the router from a wired computer to make further changes.

To configure WEP data encryption:

1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to Your Router on page 12.

2. From the main menu, select Wireless Settings to display the Wireless Settings screen.

3. In the Security Options section, select the WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) radio button:

4. Select the Authentication Type setting: Automatic, Open System, or Shared Key. The default is Open System.

Note: The authentication is separate from the data encryption. You can select authentication that requires a shared key, but still leaves data transmissions unencrypted. Security is stronger if you use both the Shared Key and WEP encryption settings.

1. Select the Encryption Strength setting:

2. 64-bit. Enter 10 hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0–9, a–f, or A–F).
   128-bit. Enter 26 hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, a-f, or A-F).

1. Enter the encryption keys. You can manually or automatically program the four data encryption keys. These values must be identical on all computers and access points in your network:

2. Passphrase. To use a passphrase to generate the keys, enter a passphrase, and click Generate. This automatically creates the keys. Wireless stations must use the passphrase or keys to access the router.

Note: Not all wireless adapters support passphrase key generation.

Key 1-Key4. These values are not case-sensitive. You can manually enter the four data encryption keys. These values must be identical on all computers and access points in your network. Enter 10 hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, a-f, or A-F).

1. Select which of the four keys will be the default.

Data transmissions are always encrypted using the default key. The other keys can be used only to decrypt received data. The four entries are disabled if WPA-PSK or WPA authentication is selected.

1. Click Apply to save your settings.

Configuring WPA, WPA2, or WPA + WPA2

Both WPA and WPA2 provide strong data security. WPA with TKIP is a software implementation that can be used on Windows systems with Service Pack 2 or later; WPA2 with AES is a hardware implementation; see your device documentation before implementing it. Consult the product documentation for your wireless adapter for instructions for configuring WPA settings.

Note: If you use a wireless computer to configure wireless security settings, you will be disconnected when you click Apply. If this happens, reconfigure your wireless computer to match the new settings, or access the router from a wired computer to make further changes.

To configure WPA or WPA2 in the router:

1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to Your Router on page 12.
2. Select Wireless Settings from the main menu.
3. On the Wireless Setting screen, select the radio button for the WPA or WPA2 option of your choice.
4. For WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK, enter the passphrase.
5. To save your settings, click Apply.

Use Push 'N' Connect (WPS) to Configure Your Wireless Network

To use Push 'N' Connect, your wireless computers or devices must support Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS). Compatible equipment usually has the WPS symbol on it. WPS can configure the network name (SSID) and set up WPA/WPA2 wireless security for the router and the wireless computer or device at the same time.

WPS considerations:

• NETGEAR's Push 'N' Connect feature is based on the WPS standard. All other Wi-Fi-certified and WPS-capable products should be compatible with NETGEAR products that implement Push 'N' Connect.
• If your wireless network will include a combination of WPS-capable devices and non-WPS-capable devices, NETGEAR suggests that you set up your wireless network and security settings manually first, and use WPS only for adding WPS-capable devices.

WPS Button

Any wireless computer or wireless adapter that will connect to the router wirelessly is a client. The client must support a WPS button, and must have a WPS configuration utility, such as the NETGEAR Smart Wizard or Atheros Jumpstart.

To use the router WPS button to add a WPS client:

1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to Your Router on page 12.
2. On the router main menu, select Add WPS Client, and then click Next.

By default, the Push Button (recommended) radio button is selected.

1. Either click the onscreen button or press the WPS button on the front of the router.

The router tries to communicate with the client (the computer that wants to join the network) for 2 minutes.

1. Go to the client wireless computer, and run a WPS configuration utility. Follow the utility's instructions to click a WPS button.
2. Go back to the router screen to check for a message.

The router WPS screen displays a message confirming that the client was added to the wireless network. The router generates an SSID, and implements WPA/WPA2 wireless security. The router will keep these wireless settings unless you change them, or you clear the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box in the Advanced Wireless Settings/WPS Settings screen.

1. Note the new SSID and WPA/WPA2 password for the wireless network. You can view these settings in the Wireless Settings screen. See Manually Configure Your Wireless Settings on page 28.

To access the Internet from any computer connected to your router, launch a browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. You should see the router's Internet LED blink, indicating communication to the ISP.

Note: If no WPS-capable client devices are located during the 2-minute time frame, the SSID does not change, and no security is set up.

WPS PIN Entry

Any wireless computer or device that will connect to the router wirelessly is a client. The client must support a WPS PIN, and must have a WPS configuration utility, such as the NETGEAR Smart Wizard or Atheros Jumpstart.

The first time you add a WPS client, make sure that the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box on the WPS Settings screen is cleared. This is the default setting for the router, and allows it to generate the SSID and WPA/WPA2 security settings when it implements WPS. After WPS is implemented, the router automatically selects this check box so that your SSID and wireless security settings stay the same if other WPS devices are added later.

To use a PIN to add a WPS client:

1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to Your Router on page 12.
2. On the router main menu, select Add WPS Client (computers that will connect wirelessly to the router are clients), and then click Next. The Add WPS Client screen displays.
3. Select the PIN Number radio button.
4. Go to the client wireless computer. Run a WPS configuration utility. Follow the utility's instructions to generate a PIN. Take note of the client PIN.

5. In the router Add WPS Client screen, enter the client PIN number, and then click Next.

6. The router tries to communicate with the client for 4 minutes. If no WPS clients connect during this time, the router wireless settings do not change.

7. The router WPS screen confirms that the client was added to the wireless network. The router generates an SSID, and implements WPA/WPA2 wireless security.

8. Note the new SSID and WPA/WPA2 password for the wireless network. You can view these settings in the Wireless Settings screen. See Manually Configure Your Wireless Settings on page 28.

To access the Internet from any computer connected to your router, launch an Internet browser such as Mozilla Firefox. You should see the router's Internet LED blink.

Add Wireless Computers That Do Not Support WPS

If you set up your network with WPS, and now you want to add a computer that does not support WPS, you must manually configure that computer. For information about how to view the wireless settings for the router, see Manually Configure Your Wireless Settings on page 28.

Because WPA randomly creates the SSID and WPA/WPA2 keys, they might be difficult to type or remember (that is one reason why the network is so secure). You can change the wireless settings so that they are easier for you to remember. If you do that, then you will need to set up the WPS-compatible computers again.

Note: Making these changes will cause all wireless computers to be disconnected from network. You will then have to set them up with the new wireless settings.

To change wireless settings for the network:

1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to the router. That way you will not get disconnected when you change the wireless settings.
2. Log in to the router and select Wireless Settings (see Manually Configure Your Wireless Settings on page 28).

3. Make the following changes:

4. Change the wireless network name (SSID) to a meaningful name.

5. On the WPA/PSK + WPA2/PSK screen, select a passphrase.

6. Make sure that the Keep Wireless Settings check box is selected in the WPS Settings screen so that your new settings will not be erased if you use WPS.

7. Click Apply so that your changes take effect. Write down your settings.

All existing wireless clients are disassociated and disconnected from the router.

1. For the non-WPS devices that you want to connect, open the networking utility and follow the utility's instructions to enter the security settings that you selected in Step 3 (the SSID, WPA/PSK + WPA2/PSK security method, and passphrase).
2. For the WPS devices that you want to connect, follow the procedure WPS Button on page 32 or WPS PIN Entry on page 34.

The settings that you configured in Step 3 are broadcast to the WPS devices so that they can connect to the router.

SIM Card PIN Code

Some SIM cards may have a PIN code associated with them. Without the PIN code, you will not be able to access the internet. This status appears when a PIN is required, but has not yet been entered.

To enter the PIN code:

1. Log into the router and select Mobile Broadband Settings from the navigation tab.
2. Enter the PIN Code.

Check with the router company if you do not know the PIN code.

SIM Card Modem Unlock Code

If you have a SIM card that is not provided by the company where you got the router, you might get an error indicating the modem is locked. To proceed, you must enter an unlock code.

No Internet Connection Available

Modem Unlock Code Required

To enter the modem unlock code:

1. Log into the router and select Mobile Broadband Settings from the navigation tab.
2. Enter the Modem Unlock Code.

The modem unlock code can be obtained from the company that supplied the router.

Blocking Sites and Keywords

The router provides a variety of options for blocking Internet-based content and communications services. With its content filtering feature, the router prevents objectionable content from reaching your PCs. You can control access to Internet content by screening for keywords within Web addresses. Content filtering options include:

• Keyword blocking of HTTP traffic.
• Outbound service blocking. Limits access from your LAN to Internet locations or services that you specify as off-limits.
  Denial of service (DoS) protection. Detects and thwarts DoS attacks such as Ping of Death, SYN flood, LAND attack, and IP spoofing.
• Blocking unwanted traffic from the Internet to your LAN.

The router allows you to restrict access to Internet content based on Web addresses and Web address keywords.

1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to Your Router on page 12.

Protecting Access to Your Router

For security reasons, the router has its own user name and password. Also, after a period of inactivity, the login automatically disconnects. The user name and password are not the same as a user name or password you might use to log in to your Internet connection.

NETGEAR recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. The ideal password should contain no dictionary words from any language, and should be a mixture of both uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters.

Changing the Built-In Password

1. To log in to the router, type http://www_ROUTerlogin.net in the address field of your Internet browser. Enter admin for the user name and your password (or the default, password).

Note: If you changed the password and do not remember what it is, you can reset the router to its factory default settings. See Restoring the Default Configuration and Password on page 91.

1. From the main menu, under Maintenance, select Set Password.

1. To change the password, first enter the old password, and then enter the new password twice.
2. Click Apply to save your changes.

Note: After changing the password, you must log in again to continue the configuration. If you have backed up the router settings previously, you should do a new backup so that the saved settings file includes the new password.

Changing the Administrator Login Time-Out

For security, the administrator login to the router configuration times out after a period of inactivity. To change the login time-out period:

1. In the Set Password screen, type a number in the Administrator login times out field. The suggested default value is 5 minutes.
2. Click Apply to save your changes, or click Cancel to keep the current period.

Running Diagnostic Utilities and Rebooting the Router

The router has a diagnostics feature. You can use the Diagnostics screen to perform the following functions from the router:

• Ping an IP address to test connectivity to see if you can reach a remote host. If Ping VPN is enabled, the ping packet always goes through the VPN if the VPN tunnel is enabled and working.
• Perform a DNS lookup to test if an Internet name resolves to an IP address to verify that the DNS server configuration is working.
• Display the routing table to identify what other routers the router is communicating with.
• Reboot the router to enable new network configurations to take effect or to clear problems with the router's network connection.

From the main menu, under Maintenance, select Diagnostics.

• Ping. Ping an IP address.
• Lookup. A Domain Name Server (DNS) converts the Internet name such as www.netgear.com to an IP address. If you need the IP address of a server on the Internet, you can do a DNS lookup to find the IP address.
• Display. View the internal routing table. Typically, this information is used only by Technical Support.
  Reboot. Shut down and restart the router.

If you reboot the router you will lose your connection. To access the router you will need to log in again after it has finished rebooting.

• Save. Save diagnostic information.

Upgrading the Router Firmware

The router firmware is stored in flash memory, and can be upgraded as new firmware is released by NETGEAR. Upgrade files can be downloaded from the NETGEAR web site. If the upgrade file is compressed (a .zip file), you must first extract the binary (.bin or .img) file before uploading it to the router.

NETGEAR recommends that you back up your configuration before doing a firmware upgrade. After the upgrade is complete, you might need to restore your configuration settings.

1. Download and unzip the new firmware file from NETGEAR.
   The Web browser used to upload new firmware into the router must support HTTP uploads. NETGEAR recommends using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later, or Mozilla Firefox 2.0 or later.
2. Log in to the router. Type http://www_ROUTerlogin.net in the address field of your Internet browser. Enter admin for the user name and your password (or the default, password).
3. From the main menu, under Maintenance, select Router Upgrade to display this screen.

1. Click Browse to locate the binary (.bin or .img) upgrade file.
2. Click Upload.

WARNING!

When uploading firmware to the router, do not interrupt the Web browser by closing the window, clicking a link, or loading a new page. If the browser is interrupted, it might corrupt the firmware, causing router to be unworkable and inaccessible. When the upload is complete, your router will automatically restart. The upgrade process typically takes about 1 minute. In some cases, you might need to clear the configuration and reconfigure the router after upgrading.

Enabling or Disabling the PIN Code	Controls whether the PIN code on the SIM card will be used to connect to the network.
Changing the PIN Code	Changes the PIN code on the SIM card.
SIM status	Current SIM card access status.

Advanced Wireless Settings

From the main menu, select Advanced Wireless Settings to display the following screen:

Table 2.

Field	Description
Enable Wireless Router Radio	Selected by default, this setting enables the wireless radio, which allows the router to work as a wireless access point. Turning off the wireless radio can be helpful for configuration, network tuning, or troubleshooting.
Fragmentation Length, CTS/RTS Threshold, and Preamble Mode	These should be left at their default settings.
Router PIN	The PIN number used for Push 'N' Connect.
Disable Router_PIN	By default, this check box is cleared. This allows the WPS clients to discover the router's PIN.
Keep Wireless Settings	By default, this check box is cleared. This allows the router to automatically generate the SSID and WPA/WPA2 security settings when it implements WPS. After WPS is implemented, the router automatically selects the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box so that your SSID and wireless security settings remain the same if other WPS-enabled devices are added later.
Turn Access Control On	Access control is disabled by default so that any computer configured with the correct SSID can connect. See Restricting Access by MAC Address on page 62.

Wireless Station Access Control

By default, any wireless PC configured with the correct SSID and wireless security settings is allowed access to your wireless network. You can use wireless access point settings in the Wireless Setting screen to further restrict wireless access to your network:

- Turn off wireless connectivity completely.

You can completely turn off the wireless portion of the router. For example, if you use your notebook computer to wirelessly connect to your router, and you take a business trip, you can turn off the wireless portion of the router while you are traveling. Other members of your household who use computers connected to the router via Ethernet cables can still use the router. To do this, clear the Enable Wireless Router Radio check box on the Wireless Settings screen, and then click Apply.

- Hide your wireless network name (SSID).

By default, the router is set to broadcast its wireless network name (SSID). You can restrict wireless access to your network by not broadcasting the wireless network name (SSID). To do this, clear the Enable SSID Broadcast check box on the Wireless Settings screen, and then click Apply. Wireless devices will not "see" your router. You must configure your wireless devices to match the wireless network name (SSID) of the router.

Note: The SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you configure in the router. If they do not match, you will not get a wireless connection to the router.

Restricting Access by MAC Address

For increased security, you can restrict access to the wireless network to allow only specific PCs based on their MAC addresses. You can restrict access to only trusted PCs so that unknown PCs cannot wirelessly connect to the Mobile Broadband 11n Wireless Router. MAC address filtering adds an obstacle against unwanted access to your network, but the data broadcast over the wireless link is fully exposed.

Note: If you configure the router from a wireless computer, add your computer's MAC address to the access list. Otherwise you will lose your wireless connection when you click Apply. You must then access the router from a wired computer, or from a wireless computer that is on the access control list, to make any further changes.

To restrict access based on MAC addresses:

1. From the main menu, under Advanced, select Wireless Settings. Click Setup Access List to display the Wireless Station Access List screen.

1. Select Turn Access Control On check box. Adjust the list as needed for your network. You can add devices to the Trusted Wireless Stations list. Click Add to display the following screen:

1. You can add devices to the list using either of the following methods:

2. If the computer is in the Available Wireless Cards table, select its radio button to capture its MAC address.

3. Use the Wireless Card Entry fields to enter the MAC address of the device to be added. The MAC address can usually be found on the bottom of the wireless device.

4. If no device name appears when you enter the MAC address, you can type a descriptive name for the computer that you are adding.

5. Click Apply to save these settings. Now, only devices on this list will be allowed to wirelessly connect to the router.

Wireless Repeating Function

From the main menu, select Wireless Repeating Function to display the following screen:

Table 3.

Field

Description

Enable Wireless Repeating

Enable this if you wish to use either Bridge mode or Repeater mode, and then select the mode you want for your environment. ·Wireless Repeater. In this mode, the MBR1210 will communicate only with another Base Station-mode wireless station. You must enter the MAC address (physical address) of the other Base Station-mode wireless station in the field provided. WEP / WPA-PSK [TKIP] can (and should) be used to protect this communication. ·Wireless Base Station. Select this only if this MBR1210 is the "master" for a group of Repeater-mode wireless stations. The other Repeater-mode wireless stations must be set to Wireless Repeater-mode, using this MBR1210's MAC address. They then send all traffic to this master, rather than communicate directly with each other. WEP / WPA-PSK [TKIP] can (and should) be used to protect this traffic. If this option is selected, you must enter the MAC addresses of the other access points in the fields provided.

Port Forwarding and Port Triggering

Port forwarding and port triggering are advanced features that affect the behavior of the firewall in your router. In the Port Forwarding / Port Triggering screen, you can make local computers or servers available to the Internet for different services (for example, FTP or HTTP), to play Internet games (like Quake III), or to use Internet applications (like CU-SeeMe).

• Port forwarding is designed for FTP, Web server, or other server-based services. Once port forwarding is set up, requests from the Internet are forwarded to the correct server.
• Port triggering monitors outbound traffic. When the router detects traffic on the specified outbound port, it remembers the IP address of the computer that sent the data and triggers the incoming port. Incoming traffic on the triggered port is then forwarded to the triggering computer. Port triggering allows requests from the Internet only after a designated port is triggered. Port triggering applies to chat and Internet games.

Port Forwarding

To set up port forwarding:

1. From the main menu, under Advanced, select Port Forwarding/Port Triggering. The following screen displays:

By default, the Port Forwarding radio button is selected.

1. You can select a service or create a custom service.

2. Select a service from the Service Name drop-down list and specify the computer's IP address.

3. If you want to add a service that is not in the list, click the Add Custom Service button. Fill in the fields in the Add Custom Service screen.

The service appears in the list.

Port Triggering

To set up port triggering:

1. From the main menu, under Advanced, select Port Forwarding/Port Triggering.
2. Select the Port Triggering radio button to display the following screen:

1. Click Add Service and fill in the fields in the Add Service screen.

The service appears in the list. For more detailed information, see the Port Forwarding/Port Triggering help.

WAN Setup

To change broadband Internet connection settings, use the Broadband Settings screen, as described in Manually Configure Your Internet Settings on page 15.

To view or change the WAN setup:

1. From the main menu, select WAN Setup to display the WAN Setup screen.
2. Make the changes that you want, and then click Apply to save the settings.

The WAN Setup fields are described in the table below.

Table 4.

Setting	Description
Disable SPI Firewall	This check box is usually cleared so that the firewall protects your LAN against port scans and denial of service attacks. This check box should be selected only in special circumstances.
Default DMZ Server	This feature is sometimes helpful when you are using some online games and videoconferencing. Be careful when using this feature because it makes the firewall security less effective. See Setting Up a Default DMZ Server on page 68.
Respond to Ping on Internet	If you want the router to respond to a ping from the Internet, select this check box. This should be used only as a diagnostic tool, since it allows your router to be discovered. Do not select this check box unless you have a specific reason to do so.
MTU Size	Maximum Transmit Unit (MTU) value. For most Ethernet networks this is 1500 bytes, or 1492 bytes for PPPoE connections, or 1436 bytes for PPTP connections.
NAT Filtering	This is set to Secured to provide a secure firewall to protect computers on the LAN from attacks from the Internet. The Open setting is less secure.
Disable SIP ALG	Some VoIP applications do not work well with SIP ALG. Selecting this check box might help your VoIP devices create or accept a call through the router.

Setting Up a Default DMZ Server

WARNING!

For security reasons, you should avoid using the default DMZ server feature. When a computer is designated as the default DMZ server, it loses much of the protection of the firewall, and is exposed to many exploits from the Internet. If compromised, the computer can be used to attack your network.

The default DMZ server feature is helpful when you are using some online games and videoconferencing applications that are incompatible with NAT. The router is programmed to recognize some of these applications and to work correctly with them, but there are other applications that might not function well. In some cases, one local computer can run the application correctly if that computer's IP address is entered as the default DMZ server.

Incoming traffic from the Internet is normally discarded by the router unless the traffic is a response to one of your local computers or a service that you have configured in the Ports screen. Instead of discarding this traffic, you can have it forwarded to one computer on your network. This computer is called the default DMZ server.

To assign a computer or server to be a default DMZ server:

1. Go to the WAN Setup screen as described in the previous section.
2. Select the Default DMZ Server check box.
3. Type the IP address for that server.
4. Click Apply to save your changes.

LAN Setup

The LAN Setup screen allows configuration of LAN IP services such as DHCP and RIP. These features can be found under Advanced in the router main menu.

The router is shipped preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side, and to act as a DHCP server. The router default LAN IP configuration is:

LAN IP address. 192.168.0.1
- Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0

These addresses are part of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)-designated private address range for use in private networks, and should be suitable in most applications. If your network has a requirement to use a different IP addressing scheme, you can make those changes in this screen.

Tip: If you change the LAN IP address of the router while connected through the browser, you will be disconnected, and so will others connected to the router. To connect to the router, you must open a new connection to the new IP address and log in again. Others using the router must restart their computers to connect to the router again.

To view or change the LAN setup:

1. Select LAN IP to display the LAN Setup screen.

1. Change the settings. For more information, see DHCP Settings on page 70, or Reserved IP Addresses on page 71.
2. Click Apply to save the changes.

The LAN TCP/IP Setup parameters are explained in the table below.

Table 5.

Settings		Description
Device Name
LAN TCP/IP Setup	IP Address	The LAN IP address of the router.
	IP Subnet Mask	The LAN subnet mask of the router. Combined with the IP address, the IP subnet mask allows a device to know which other addresses are local to it, and which must be reached through a gateway or router.
DHCP Server For more information, see DHCP Settings on page 70.	Use Router as a DHCP Server	This check box is usually selected so that the router functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. See DHCP Settings on page 70.
	Starting IP Address	Specify the start of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the same subnet as the router.
	Ending IP Address	Specify the end of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the same subnet as the router.
Address Reservation For more information, see DHCP Settings on page 70.		When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer receives the same IP address each time it access the router's DHCP server. Assign reserved IP addresses to servers that require permanent IP settings.

DHCP Settings

By default, the router functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, allowing it to assign IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers connected to the router's LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the router. IP addresses is assigned to the attached PCs from a pool of addresses specified in this screen. Each pool address is tested before it is assigned to avoid duplicate addresses on the LAN.

For most applications, the default DHCP and TCP/IP settings of the router are satisfactory. Click the link to the online document ITCP/IP Networking Basics on page 96 for an explanation of DHCP and information about how to assign IP addresses for your network.

Use Router as DHCP Server

If another device on your network will be the DHCP server, or if you will manually configure the network settings of all of your computers, clear the Use Router as DHCP Server check box on the LAN IP Setup screen. Otherwise, leave it selected.

Specify the pool of IP addresses to be assigned by filling in the Starting IP Address and Ending IP Address fields. These addresses should be part of the same IP address subnet as the router's LAN IP address. Using the default addressing scheme, you should define a range between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254, although you might want to save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.

The router delivers the following parameters to any LAN device that requests DHCP:

An IP address from the range you have defined.
- Subnet mask.
- Gateway IP address is the router's LAN IP address.
- Primary DNS server, if you entered a primary DNS address in the Basic Settings screen; otherwise, the router's LAN IP address.
- Secondary DNS server, if you entered a secondary DNS address in the Basic Settings screen.
- WINS server (Windows Internet Naming Service Server) determines the IP address associated with a particular Windows computer. A WINS server records and reports a list of names and IP address of Windows PCs on its local network. If you connect to a remote network that contains a WINS server, enter the server's IP address here. This allows your PCs to browse the network using the Network Neighborhood feature of Windows.

Reserved IP Addresses

When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer always receives the same IP address each time it access the router's DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings.

To reserve an IP address:

1. Click the Add button.
2. In the IP Address field, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server. Choose an IP address from the router's LAN subnet, such as 192.168.0.x.
3. Type the MAC address of the computer or server.

Tip: If the computer is on your network, it is listed on the same screen for your convenience. Clicking the radio button for each entry in the attached device list fills in the fields automatically with the computer's MAC address and name.

1. Click Apply to enter the reserved address into the table.

Note: The reserved address will not be assigned until the next time the computer contacts the router's DHCP server. Reboot the computer or access its IP configuration and force a DHCP release and renew.

To edit or delete a reserved address entry:

1. Click the button next to the reserved address you want to edit or delete.
2. Click Edit or Delete.

QoS Setup

QoS is an advanced feature that can be used to prioritize some Internet applications and online gaming, and to minimize the impact when the bandwidth is busy.

From the main menu, select QoS Setup to display the following screen:

Table 6.

Field	Description
Wi-Fi Multi-media (WMM) Settings	WMM (Wireless Multimedia) is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities depending on the kind of data. Time-dependent information, such as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, wireless clients must also support WMM.
Turn Internet Access QoS On	If you enable QoS, the QoS function works to prioritize Internet access traffic. For the applications that already exist in the drop-down list (e.g., On-line Gaming, Ethernet LAN Port, or a specified MAC address), you can modify the priority level by clicking the Edit button, or clicking the Delete button to erase the priority rule. Otherwise, you can also define the priority policy for online gaming, an application, a LAN port, or the computer's MAC address by clicking the Add Priority Rule button.
Bandwidth Control	To set up the total maximum uplink bandwidth, click the Check button to detect current uplink bandwidth that will help you to determinate the maximum bandwidth setting.

Dynamic DNS

If your network has a permanently assigned IP address, you can register a domain name and have that name linked with your IP address by public Domain Name Servers (DNS).

However, if your Internet account uses a dynamically assigned IP address, you will not know in advance what your IP address will be, and the address can change frequently. In this case, you can use a commercial Dynamic DNS service to register your domain to their IP address, and forward traffic directed at your domain to your frequently changing IP address.

The router contains a client that can connect to a Dynamic DNS service provider. To use this feature, you must select a service provider and obtain an account with them. After you have configured your account information in the router, whenever your ISP-assigned IP address changes, your router will automatically contact your Dynamic DNS service provider, log in to your account, and register your new IP address.

WARNING!

If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x, the Dynamic DNS service will not work because private addresses will not be routed on the Internet.

To configure Dynamic DNS:

1. From the main menu, select Dynamic DNS to display the Dynamic DNS screen:
2. Access the website of one of the Dynamic DNS service providers whose names appear in the Service Provider drop-down list, and register for an account.

For example, for dyndns.org, go to www.dyndns.org.

1. Select the Use a Dynamic DNS Service check box.
2. Select the name of your Dynamic DNS service provider.
3. Fill in the Host Name, User Name, and Password fields.

The Dynamic DNS service provider might call the host name a domain name. If your URL is myName.dyndns.org, then your host name is myName. The password can be a key for your Dynamic DNS account.

If your Dynamic DNS provider allows the use of wildcards in resolving your URL, you can select the Use wildcards check box to activate this feature.

For example, the wildcard feature will cause *.yourhost.dyndns.org to be aliased to the same IP address as yourhost.dyndns.org.

1. Click Apply to save your configuration.

Using Static Routes

Static routes provide additional routing information to your router. Under normal circumstances, the router has adequate routing information after it has been configured for Internet access, and you do not need to configure additional static routes. You must configure static routes only for unusual cases such as multiple routers or multiple IP subnets located on your network.

Static Route Example

As an example of when a static route is needed, consider the following case:

• Your primary Internet access is through a cable modem to an ISP.
• You have an ISDN router on your home network for connecting to the company where you are employed. This router's address on your LAN is 192.168.0.100.
• Your company's network is 134.177.0.0.

When you first configured your router, two implicit static routes were created. A default route was created with your ISP as the router, and a second static route was created to your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. With this configuration, if you attempt to access a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your router forwards your request to the ISP. The ISP forwards your request to the company where you are employed, and the request is likely to be denied by the company's firewall.

In this case you must define a static route, telling your router that 134.177.0.0 should be accessed through the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100.

In this example:

• The Destination IP Address and IP Subnet Mask fields specify that this static route applies to all 134.177.x.x addresses.
• The Gateway IP Address fields specify that all traffic for these addresses should be forwarded to the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100.
• In the Metric field, a value of 1 will work since the ISDN router is on the LAN. This represents the number of routers between your network and the destination. This is a direct connection, so it is set to 1.
• Private is selected only as a precautionary security measure in case RIP is activated.

To configure static routes:

1. From the main menu, under Advanced, select Static Routes to view the Static Routes screen.

1. Select the radio button of the static route you want to configure.
2. Click Add or Edit to display the following screen:

1. Fill in or change the fields:

2. Route Name. The route name is for identification purposes only.

3. Private. Select this check box if you want to limit access to the LAN only. The static route will not be reported in RIP.
   Active. Select this check box to make this route effective.
4. Destination IP Address, and IP Subnet Mask. If the destination is a single host, type a subnet value of 255.255.255.255.
5. Gateway IP Address. This must be a router on the same LAN segment as the router.

6. Metric. Type a number between 2 and 15. This represents the number of routers between your network and the destination. Usually, a setting of 2 or 3 works, but if this is a direct connection, set it to 2.

7. Click Apply to save your changes. If you added a static route, it is added to the Static Routes screen.

Enabling Remote Management

Using the Remote Management screen, you can allow a user or users on the Internet to configure, upgrade, and check the status of your router.

Tip: Be sure to change the router default password to a very secure password. The ideal password should contain no dictionary words from any language, and should be a mixture of letters (both upper-case and lower-case), numbers, and symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters.

To configure Remote Management

1. Log in to the router. Type http://www+ruterlogin.net in the address field of your Internet browser. Enter admin for the user name and your password (or the default, password).
2. Under Advanced, select Remote Management:
3. Select the Turn Remote Management On check box.
4. Specify which external addresses will be allowed to access the router's remote management.

For security, restrict access to as few external IP addresses as practical:

• To allow access from any IP address on the Internet, select Everyone.
• To allow access from a range of IP addresses on the Internet, select IP

Address Range. Enter a beginning and ending IP address to define the allowed range.
- To allow access from a single IP address on the Internet, select Only This Computer. Enter the IP address that will be allowed access.

1. Specify the port number that will be used for accessing the router menu.

Access normally uses the standard HTTP service port 80. For greater security, you can enter a different port number. Choose a number between 1024 and 65535, but do not use the number of any common service port. The default is 8080, which is a common alternate for HTTP.

1. Click Apply to have your changes take effect.

When accessing your router from the Internet, type your router WAN IP address in your Internet browser address or location field, followed by a colon (:) and the custom port number. For example, if your external address is 134.177.0.123 and you use port number 8080, enter: http://134.177.0.123:8080. Be sure to include http:// in the address.

Universal Plug and Play

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) helps devices such as Internet appliances and computers access the network and connect to other devices as needed. UPnP devices can automatically discover the services from other registered UPnP devices on the network.

1. Select UPnP on the main menu to display the UPnP screen:

1. Fill in the settings on the UPnP screen:

2. Turn UPnP On. UPnP can be enabled or disabled for automatic device configuration. The default setting for UPnP is enabled. If this feature is disabled, the router will not allow any device to automatically control the resources, such as port forwarding (mapping), of the router.

3. Advertisement Period. The advertisement period is how often the router advertises (broadcasts) its UPnP information. This value can range from 1 to 1440 minutes. The default period is 30 minutes. Shorter durations ensure that control points have current device status at the expense of additional network traffic. Longer durations might compromise the freshness of the device status but can significantly reduce network traffic.
4. Advertisement Time To Live. The time to live for the advertisement is measured in hops for each UPnP packet sent. A hop is the number of steps allowed to propagate for each UPnP advertisement before it disappears. The number of hops can range from 1 to 255. The default value for the advertisement time to live is 4 hops, which should be fine for most home networks. If you notice that some devices are not being updated or reached correctly, then it might be necessary to increase this value a little.

5. UPnP Portmap Table. The UPnP Portmap Table displays the IP address of each UPnP device that is currently accessing the router and which ports (internal and external) that device has opened.

6. To save or cancel your changes or refresh the table:

7. Click Apply to save the new settings to the router.

8. Click Cancel to disregard any unsaved changes.
9. Click Refresh to update the portmap table and to show the active ports that are currently opened by UPnP devices.

Traffic Meter

Traffic metering allows you to monitor the volume of Internet traffic passing through your router's Internet port. With the Traffic Meter utility, you can set limits for traffic volume, set a monthly limit, and get a live update of traffic usage. You enable separate traffic meters for the mobile broadband connection and the Ethernet connection.

To monitor traffic on your router:

1. Under Advanced on the router menu, select Traffic Meter.
2. Click the appropriate Show Traffic Meter Application for ... radio button for the type of Internet connection (e.g., mobile broadband or Ethernet) you are setting up.
3. To enable the traffic meter, select the Enable Traffic Meter check box.

4. If you would like to record and restrict the volume of Internet traffic, select the Traffic volume control by radio button. You can select one of the following options for controlling the traffic volume:

5. No Limit. No restriction is applied when the traffic limit is reached.
   Download only. The restriction is applied to incoming traffic only.

6. Both Directions. The restriction is applied to both incoming and outgoing traffic.

7. You can limit the amount of data traffic allowed per month:

8. By specifying how many Mbytes per month are allowed.

9. By specifying how many hours of traffic are allowed.

10. Set the Traffic Counter to begin at a specific time and date.

11. Set up traffic control to issue a warning message before the monthly limit of Mbytes or hours is reached. You can select one of the following to occur when the limit is attained:

The Internet LED flashes green or amber.
- The Internet connection is disconnected and disabled.

1. Set up Internet Traffic Statistics to monitor the data traffic.
2. Click the Traffic Status button if you want a live update on Internet traffic status on your router.
3. Click Apply to save your settings.

Basic Functioning

After you turn on power to the router, the following sequence of events should occur:

1. When power is first applied, verify that the Power LED is on.
2. After approximately 10 seconds, verify that:

a. The Power LED is still solid green. An amber light indicates the unit has failed its power-on self-test (POST).
b. The Internet LED is lit.
c. The Wi-Fi radio LED is lit. The Wi-Fi radio is on by default.
d. The Ethernet LAN port LED is lit when any local ports are connected.

If a LAN port's LED is lit, a link has been established to the connected device. If a LAN port is connected to a 100 Mbps device, verify that the port's LED is green. If the port is 10 Mbps, the LED is amber.

e. The Ethernet WAN port LED is lit when the router is connected to a wired modem.
f. The Signal LED is lit when the router has detected a mobile broadband signal.

• A blue LED indicates excellent coverage.
  A green LED indicates good coverage.
• An amber LED indicates marginal coverage.

If any of these conditions does not occur, refer to the following table.

LED		Action

Make sure that the Signal LED is lit, indicating there is mobile broadband coverage with the router. • Log in to the router menu and check the Internet configuration. Check that the user name, password, and APN with ISP are set correctly. If you use a PIN to connect to the Internet, make sure it is entered correctly.

Troubleshooting Access to the Router Main Menu

If you are unable to access the router main menu from a computer on your local network, check the following:

• If you are using an Ethernet-connected computer, check the Ethernet connection between the computer and the router as described in the previous section.
• Make sure your computer's IP address is on the same subnet as the router. If you are using the recommended addressing scheme, your computer's address should be in the range of 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254. See the online document you can access from ITCP/IP Networking Basics in Appendix A to find your computer's IP address.

Note: If your computer's IP address is shown as 169.254.x.x: Recent versions of Windows and MacOS generate and assign an IP address if the computer cannot reach a DHCP server. These auto-generated addresses are in the range of 169.254.x.x. If your IP address is in this range, check the connection from the computer to the router, and reboot your computer.

• If your router's IP address was changed and you do not know the current IP address, clear the router's configuration to factory defaults. This will set the router's IP address to 192.168.0.1. This procedure is explained in Restoring the Default Configuration and Password on page 91.
• Make sure that your browser has Java, JavaScript, or ActiveX enabled. If you are using Internet Explorer, click Refresh to be sure that the Java applet is loaded.
  Try quitting the browser and launching it again.
• Make sure that you are using the correct login information. The factory default login name is admin, and the password is password. Make sure that Caps Lock is off when entering this information.

If the router does not save changes you have made in the Web Man agement Interface, check the following:

• When entering configuration settings, be sure to click the Apply button before moving to another screen or tab, or your changes are lost.
• Click the Refresh or Reload button in the Web browser. The changes might have occurred, but the Web browser might be caching the old configuration.

Troubleshooting the ISP Connection

Check these possible sources of trouble if you are having difficulty connecting to or browsing the Internet.

Connecting to the Internet

If unable to connect to Internet, check the following:

1. The Internet account is active.
   If your ISP has provided you with a SIM card and you haven't inserted it into the SIM card slot on the back of the router yet, do so now.
2. Wireless broadband coverage is available where the unit is located.
3. Access the router main menu to verify that the broadband settings are correct. Check with your ISP if you are unsure.
4. Check the location of the router.

a. Move the router closer to a window for better access to the Internet signal.

• A blue Signal LED indicates excellent coverage.
  A green Signal LED indicates good coverage.
• An amber Signal LED indicates marginal coverage.
  An unlighted Signal LED indicates no coverage.

b. Maintain recommended minimum distances between NETGEAR equipment and household appliances to reduce interference (see Regulatory Compliance Information on page 97).

1. Using an external antenna for improved signal strength:

a. Install an external antenna. (The external antenna is an optional accessory that you can purchase.)

b. Clear the Use Internal Antenna check box on the Mobile Broadband Settings screen and then click Apply.

c. Click Connect to connect to the Internet.

Troubleshooting Internet Browsing

If your router can obtain an IP address but your computer is unable to load any Web pages from the Internet:

The traffic meter is enabled, and the limit might have been reached.

By configuring the traffic meter not to block, you can resume Internet access. If you have an usage limit, your ISP might charge you for the overage.

• Your computer might not recognize any DNS server addresses.

A DNS server is a host on the Internet that translates Internet names (such as www addresses) to numeric IP addresses. Typically your ISP provides the addresses of one or two DNS servers for your use. If you entered a DNS address during the router's configuration, reboot your computer and verify the DNS address as described in the article you can access from ITCP/IP Networking Basics in Appendix A. Alternatively, you can configure your computer manually with DNS addresses, as explained in your operating system documentation.

• Your computer might not have the router configured as its TCP/IP router.

If your computer obtains its information from the router by DHCP, reboot the computer, and verify the router address as described in the online document you can access from ITCP/IP Networking Basics in Appendix A.

Troubleshooting a TCP/IP Network Using the Ping Utility

Most TCP/IP terminal devices and routers contain a ping utility that sends an echo request packet to the designated device. The device then responds with an echo reply. You can easily troubleshoot a TCP/IP network by using the ping utility in your computer.

Testing the LAN Path to Your Router

You can ping the router from your PC to verify that the LAN path to your router is set up correctly.

To ping the router from a PC running Windows 95 or later:

1. From the Windows toolbar, click the Start button, and select Run.
2. In the field provided, type ping followed by the IP address of the router, as in this example: ping 192.168.0.1
3. Click OK.

You should see a message like this one:

Pinging with 32 bytes of data

If the path is working, you see this message:

Reply from < IP address >: bytes=32 time=NN ms TTL=xxx

If the path is not working, you see this message:

Request timed out

If the path is not working correctly, you could have one of the following problems:

• Wrong physical connections

• Make sure that the LAN port LED is on. If the LED is off, follow the instructions in Connecting to the Internet on page 87.

• Check that the corresponding Link LEDs are on for your network interface card and for the hub ports (if any) that are connected to your workstation and router.

• Wrong network configuration

• Verify that the Ethernet card driver software and TCP/IP software are both installed and configured on your PC or workstation.

• Verify that the IP address for your router and your workstation are correct and that the addresses are on the same subnet.

Testing the Path from Your Computer to a Remote Device

After verifying that the LAN path works correctly, test the path from your PC to a remote device.

1. From the Windows toolbar, click the Start button, and select Run.
2. In the Windows Run window, type:

ping -n 10 IP address

where IP address is the IP address of a remote device such as your ISP's DNS server.

If the path is functioning correctly, replies as in the previous section are displayed. If you do not receive replies:

• Check that your PC has the IP address of your router listed as the default router. If the IP configuration of your PC is assigned by DHCP, this information is not visible in your PC's Network Control Panel. Verify that the IP address of the router is listed as the default router as described in the online document you can access from Preparing Your Network in Appendix A.
• Make sure that the network address of your PC (the portion of the IP address specified by the netmask) is different from the network address of the remote device.
• Check that your cable or DSL modem is connected and functioning.
• If your ISP assigned a host name to your PC, enter that host name as the account name in the Basic Settings screen.
• Your ISP could be rejecting the Ethernet MAC addresses of all but one of your PCs. Many broadband ISPs restrict access by allowing only traffic from the MAC address of your broadband modem, but some ISPs additionally restrict access to the MAC address of a single PC connected to that modem. If this is the case, you must configure your router to clone or spoof the MAC address from the authorized PC. See the Mobile Broadband 11n Wireless Router MBR1210 Installation Guide.

Problems with Date and Time

The email screen displays the current date and time of day. The Mobile Broadband 11n Wireless Router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time from one of several network time servers on the Internet. Each entry in the log is stamped with the date and time of day. Problems with the date and time function can include the following:

• Date shown is January 1, 2000.

Cause: The router has not yet successfully reached a network time server. Check that your Internet access settings are configured correctly. If you have just completed configuring the router, wait at least 5 minutes, and check the date and time again.

Time is off by one hour.

Cause: The router does not automatically sense daylight savings time. On the E-mail screen, select or clear the Adjust for Daylight Savings Time check box.

Restoring the Default Configuration and Password

This section explains how to restore the factory default configuration settings, changing the router's admin password to password and the IP address to 192.168.0.1. You can erase the current configuration and restore factory defaults in two ways:

• Use the Erase feature (see Erasing the Configuration on page 54).
• Press the Restore Factory Settings button on the bottom of the router for 6 seconds. Use this method for cases when the administration password or IP address is not known.

The factory default settings are shown in Factory Default Settings in Appendix A.
