Default Router Settings
In addition to handling the DSL connection to your ISP, the HSA300
ADSL/Ethernet router can provide a variety of services to your
network. The device is preconfigured with default settings for use
with a typical home or small office network.
Table 1 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, review the settings in Table
1 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.
