Main Menu
The main menu, on the left, contains links to the most-commonly used screen. To see the links
to the other available screens, click "Advanced" or "Administration".
The main menu also contains two (2) buttons:
• Log Out - When finished, you should click this button to logout.
• Restart - Use this if you wish to restart the Broadband ADSL Router. Note that restarting
the Router will break any existing connections to or through the Router.
Navigation & Data Input
• Use the menu bar on the left of the screen, and the "Back" button on your Browser, for
navigation.
• Changing to another screen without clicking "Save" does NOT save any changes you may
have made. You must "Save" before changing screens or your data will be ignored.
On each screen, clicking the "Help" button will
display help for that screen.

TCP/IP
IP Address
IP address for the Broadband ADSL Router, as seen from the local
LAN. Use the default value unless the address is already in use or your
LAN is using a different IP address range. In the latter case, enter an
unused IP Address from within the range used by your LAN.
Subnet Mask
The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C")
networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN
segment to which the Broadband ADSL Router is attached (the same
value as the PCs on that LAN segment).
DHCP Server
• If Enabled, the Broadband ADSL Router will allocate IP Ad-
dresses to PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN when they start up.
The default (and recommended) value is Enabled.
• If you are already using a DHCP Server, this setting must be
Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be re-configured to
treat the Broadband ADSL Router as the default Gateway. See the
following section for further details.
• The Start IP Address and Finish IP Address fields set the values
used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Addresses to DHCP
clients. This range also determines the number of DHCP clients
supported.
See the following section for further details on using DHCP.
