Wireless Cable/DSL Router
• Dynamic Routing - Sets up the Router so it will automatically adjust to phys-
ical changes in the network’s layout.
• Static Routing - Sets up static routes needed when network information must
travel to a specific host or network.
• DMZ Host - Allows one local user to be exposed to the Internet for use of spe-
cial-purpose services such as online gaming or videoconferencing.
• MAC Address Cloning - Allows you to “clone” your Ethernet adapter’s MAC
address onto the Router.
From the IP filters screen, shown in Figure 6-11, you can block specific inter-
nal users from accessing the Internet and enable Virtual Private Network (VPN)
sessions. You can set up filters by using IP addresses or network port numbers
(or a range of ports).
Filtered Private IP Range To set up a filter using IP addresses, enter the range
of IP addresses you wish to filter in the IP address fields. Users with filtered
IP addresses will not be able to access the Internet at all. If you only want to
filter one IP address instead of a range of IP addresses, enter the same value
into both fields. For instance, if you wish to filter the PC with the IP address
of 192.168.1.5, enter 5 into both fields on one line: 192.168.1.5 ~ 192.168.1.5.
Click the Apply button when finished.
Filtered Private Port Range To filter users by network port number, enter a
network port number or a range of network ports. Select the protocol for each
port number you want to filter, TCP or UDP. Enter the port numbers you want
to filter in the port numbers fields. Users connected to the Router will no
longer be able to access any port number listed there. Click the Apply button
when you’re done.
Time Filter This feature allows you to block access to the Internet during pre-
set times.

Upgrade Firmware New firmware versions are posted at
www.NetworkEverywhere.com and can be downloaded for free. If the Router
can access the Internet already, there’s no need to download a newer firmware
version, unless that version has a new feature that you want to use. (To learn
about any new firmware with new features, visit
www.NetworkEverywhere.com.) Loading new firmware onto the Router does
not always enhance the speed or the quality of your connection.
To upgrade the Router’s firmware:
1. Download the firmware upgrade file from www.NetworkEverywhere.com,
and extract the file using archive software such as WinZip.
2. Select the Help tab (see Figure 6-10).
3. Click Upgrade Firmware to display a new window.
4. Click the Browse button to find the firmware upgrade file you extracted.
5. Double-click the firmware file you extracted. Click the Upgrade button
and follow the on-screen instructions.
The following instructions are for advanced users or users whose setup require
special configuration. When you click the Advanced tab, you will be able to set
up these features. There are six additional tabs available.
• Filters - Filters block specific internal users from Internet access and enable
Virtual Private Network (VPN) sessions.
• Forwarding - Sets up public services on your network.
Note: By upgrading the Router’s firmware, you may lose the Router’s
configuration settings.
