3.3.3 Default Router Settings

In addition to handling the DSL connection to your ISP, the

RX3042H can provide a variety of services to your network. The

device is pre-configured with default settings for use with a typical

home or small office network.
Table 3.2 lists some of the most important default settings; these

and other features are described fully in the subsequent chapters.

If you are familiar with network configuration settings, review the

settings in Table 3.2 to verify that they meet the needs of your

network. Follow the instructions to change them if necessary. If

you are unfamiliar with these settings, try using the device without

modification, or contact your ISP for assistance.
Before you modifying any settings, review Chapter 4 for general

information about accessing and using the Configuration Manager

program. We strongly recommend that you contact your ISP prior to

changing the default configuration.
