To connect from a remote PC via the Internet
1. Ensure your Internet connection is established, and start your Web Browser.
2. In the "Address" bar, enter "HTTP://" followed by the Internet IP Address of the

Wireless Router. If the port number is not 80, the port number is also required.
(After the IP Address, enter ":" followed by the port number.)
e.g.

HTTP://123.123.123.123:8080

This example assumes the WAN IP Address is 123.123.123.123, and the port
number is 8080.

3. You will then be prompted for the login name and password for this device.

7.8 Routing

Overview

• If you don't have other Routers or Gateways on your LAN, you can ignore the

"Routing" page completely.

• If the Wireless Router is only acting as a Gateway for the local LAN segment,

ignore the "Routing" page even if your LAN has other Routers.

• If your LAN has a standard Router (e.g. Cisco) on your LAN, and the Wireless

Router is to act as a Gateway for all LAN segments, enable RIP (Routing Informa-
tion Protocol) and ignore the Static Routing table.

• If your LAN has other Gateways and Routers, and you wish to control which LAN

segments use each Gateway, do NOT enable RIP (Routing Information Protocol).
Configure the Static Routing table instead. (You also need to configure the other
Routers.)

• If using Windows 2000 Data center Server as a software Router, enable RIP on

the Wireless Router, and ensure the following Windows 2000 settings are correct:
• Open Routing and Remote Access
• In the console tree, select Routing and Remote Access, [server name], IP

Routing, RIP

• In the "Details" pane, right-click the interface you want to configure for RIP

version 2, and then click "Properties".

• On the "General" tab, set Outgoing packet protocol to "RIP version 2 broad-

cast", and Incoming packet protocol to "RIP version 1 and 2".

Routing Screen

The routing table is accessed by the Routing link on the Administration menu.

Using this Screen

Generally, you will use either RIP (Routing Information Protocol) OR the Static Rout-
ing Table, as explained above, although is it possible to use both methods
simultaneously.
