Using Router Setup
Router Setup is primarily for technically advanced users. For
most people, the options that are set by default when the X6v
is
installed are sufficient.
However, those who want or need to change the advanced X6v
settings can do so by logging in as admin and using the Router
Setup page in the Zoom Configuration Manager. This chapter
explains the advanced options and features of the
X6v modem
and how to apply them to your network.
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 X6v
You need to change your Wide Area Network settings
You want to change the default firewall settings to block
particular IP addresses and intrusive hosts
You want to change your ADSL password
You have customized your configuration and want to back
it up for future use or apply it to additional modems
You want to set up fixed IP addresses for your computer(s)
Note: Users who want to set up Quality of Service (described in
this section) can do so more easily using the Zoom Install
Assistant.
