Static Routing
If your Router is connected to more than one network, it may be necessary to
set up a static route between them. A static route is a pre-determined pathway
that network information must travel to reach a specific host or network.
Click the Show Routing Table button to view the current static routing con-

1. Select Static Route Entry from the drop down list. The Cable/DSL
Router supports up to 20 static route entries.

Dynamic Routing
With Dynamic Routing you can automatically adjust to physical changes in
the network's layout. The router, using the RIP protocol, determines the net-
work packets’ route based on the fewest number of hops between the source
and the destination. The RIP protocol regularly broadcasts routing informa-
tion to other routers on the network. To set up Dynamic Routing:
1. Choose the correct working mode. Gateway Mode should be used if your
Linksys router is hosting your network's connection to the Internet.
Router Mode should be selected if the router exists on a network with
other routers.
2. In the TX field, choose the protocol by which you transmit data on the
network.
3. In the RX field, choose the protocol by which the Router receives net-
work data.
4. Click the Apply button to save your changes.
