Wireless-B Broadband Router
Optional Settings (Required by some ISPs)
Some of these settings may be required by your ISP. Verify with your ISP before making any changes.
Host Name/Domain Name. These fields allow you to supply a host and domain name for the Router. Some
ISPs, usually cable ISPs, require these names as identification. You may have to check with your ISP to see if
your broadband Internet service has been configured with a host and domain name. In most cases, leaving
these fields blank will work.
MTU. MTU is the Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size permitted for Internet
transmission. The default setting, Enable, allows you to enter the largest packet size that will be transmitted.
The recommended size, entered in the Size field, is 1492. You should leave this value in the 1200 to 1500
range. To have the Router automatically select the best MTU for your Internet connection, select Disable.
Network Setup
The Network Setup section changes the settings on the network connected to the Router’s Ethernet ports.
Wireless Setup is performed through the Wireless tab.
Router IP
This presents both the Router’s IP Address and Subnet Mask as seen by your network.
Network Address Server Settings (DHCP)
The settings allow you to configure the Router’s Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server
function. The Router can be used as a DHCP server for your network. A DHCP server automatically assigns
an IP address to each computer on your network. If you choose to enable the Router’s DHCP server option,
you must configure all of your network PCs to connect to a DHCP server (the Router), and make sure there is
no other DHCP server on your network.
Optional Settings
Host Name and Domain Name. These fields allow you to supply a host and domain name for the Router.
Some ISPs require these names as identification. You may have to check with your ISP to see if your
broadband Internet service has been configured with a host and domain name. In most cases, leaving these
fields blank will work.
MTU. The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) setting specifies the largest packet size permitted for network
transmission. Select Enable and enter the value desired. It is recommended that you leave this value in the
1200 to 1500 range. For most DSL users, it is recommended to use the value 1492. By default, MTU is set at
1500 when disabled.
