Configuring Other Routers on your LAN

It is essential that all IP packets for devices not on the local LAN be passed to the TW100-
BRF114U, so that they can be forwarded to the external LAN, WAN, or Internet. To achieve
this, the local LAN must be configured to use the TW100-BRF114U as the Default Route or
Default Gateway.

Local Router

The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as the TW100-BRF114U.
This router requires that the Default Route is the Broadband Router itself. Typically, routers
have a special entry for the Default Route. It should be configured as follows.

Destination IP Address

Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.

Network Mask

Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.

Gateway IP Address

The IP Address of the TW100-BRF114U.
