IPv6 Internet connection settings
For E900 E1200V2 E1500 E2500 E3200 E4200
IPv6 is a new IP protocol that uses simplified packet headers and requires IPSec.
It also has improved support for mobile IP and computing devices. If your
router model supports IPv6, an IPv6 Setup page is available under the Setup tab.
NOTE
To use your routers IPv6 Internet connection settings, IPv6 service
from your ISP (Internet service provider) is required. For more
information on this service, ask your ISP.
To manually configure your router’s IPv6 settings:
Setup > IPv6 Setup
1.
Log into the browser-based utility (see “How to open the browser-based
utility on page 25).
2.
Click the Setup tab, then click the IPv6 Setup page.
3.
IPv6 - Automatic—Select Enabled to automatically use IPv6 for all
network addressing.
4.
6rd Tunnel—Allows your router to send IPv6 IP addresses over IPv4
networks. To enable this option, IPv6 - Automatic must be set to
Disabled. To let your router handle the 6rd Tunnel settings (such as
prefixes and address masks), change the 6rd Tunnel setting to Automatic
Configuration. Select Manual Configuration to change these settings
manually.
Prefix—Enter the prefix address used for the tunnel provided by your
ISP.
Prefix Length—Enter the prefix length used for the tunnel provided
by your ISP.
Border Relay—Enter the border relay address used for the tunnel
provided by your ISP.
IPv4 Address Mask—Enter the IPv4 address mask length used for the
tunnel provided by your ISP.

How to get the most out of your dual-
band router
For E2500 E3200 E4200
I bought a dual band router, but I’m not sure that I’m getting the most
out of it. What should I check? Of the many reasons for owning a dual-band
router, the most common is to ensure available bandwidth for streaming high-
definition video. At the same time, owners want to make sure that their video
streams won’t be interrupted by other wireless network traffic. To get the most
out of your dual-band router, you can:
Upgrade your wireless clients
Split your traffic
Upgrade your wireless clients
If you have network adapters that support only legacy wireless network
standards such as 802.11b, you should consider upgrading them with
Wireless-N (802.11n) network adapters. Wireless-B (802.11b) devices can slow
your entire wireless network. For the best performance, all of your wireless
devices should support Wireless-N. You can then select Wireless-N Only as your
Network Mode below.
NOTE
If you select Wireless-N Only, you may need to temporarily change
your network settings to Mixed to provide access to guests without
Wireless-N networking.
Split your traffic
The best way to improve your multimedia wireless performance is to split your
wireless traffic between your router’s two bands (ranges of radio frequencies).
Your router supports the 2.4 GHz band and the 5 GHz band, and handles the
two bands as two separate wireless networks to help manage the traffic.
The most common way to split wireless traffic is to use the 2.4 GHz band for
basic Internet tasks such as web browsing, email, and downloads, and use
the 5.0 GHz band for streaming multimedia. There are several reasons for this
approach:
