Setup>LAN Configuration

Click on the LAN Configuration link under the Setup menu to configure your Local

Area Network settings.

Interfaces

This section displays the available interfaces on your modem that have yet to be

configured. The default setting is to have all interfaces in LAN group 1.

It is possible to have separate LAN groups:

three if you have the NB5Plus4W:

i)

USB;

ii)

Ethernet;

iii)

WLAN (Wireless LAN);

two if you have the NB5Plus4:

i)

USB;

ii)

Ethernet;

LAN Groups

Configuring LAN Groups with static IP addresses must be done in such a way that

the range of assignable IP addresses in each of the LAN groups should not overlap

with other LAN groups. A rule of thumb would be that each LAN group should be

on its own network or subnet. For example, say you have 3 LAN groups each being

setup with static IP addressing. Below is a sample configuration:

LanGroup #1

IP Address 192.168.1.1

NetMask 255.255.255.0

LanGroup #2

IP Address 192.168.2.1

NetMask 255.255.255.0
