PPPoE: PPP over Ethernet is a common connection method used for xDSL PPPoA: PPP over ATM is a common connection method used for xDSL 28
Bridge: Bridge mode is a common connection method used for xDSL modem.
Dynamic Routing Go to Interface Setup Æ Internet to select the Dynamic Route needed. The dynamic routing feature of the router can be used to allow the router to automatically adjust to physical changes in the network's layout. The router uses the dynamic RIP protocol. It determines the route that the network packets take based on the fewest number of hops between the source and the destination. The RIP protocol broadcasts routing information to other routers on the network regularly.
4.3.2 LAN Configuration Go to Interface Setup Æ LAN. The LAN Settings option enables you to configure the LAN port. DHCP Relay DHCP Relay forwards local clients' DHCP requests to WAN site DHCP server. Three settings have to be configured when enabling the function: (1) disable the NAT and run on route mode only; (2) disable the DHCP server on the local network site; (3) make sure the routing table has the correct routing entry.
DNS Go to Interface Æ LAN to enable DHCP server. Then you can set DNS server for the router. A Domain Name system (DNS) server is like an index of IP addresses and Web addresses. If you type a Web address into you browser, a DNS server will find that name in its index and find the matching IP address. Most ISPs provide a DNS server for speed and convenience.
4.3.3 Wireless Settings Go to Interface Æ Wireless to setup the wireless parameters. SSID SSID is the identifier for the network. You can change the SSID. Only devices with the same SSID can interconnect. Channel ID The channel number is used for wireless networking. The channel setting of the wireless devices within a network should be the same.
Wireless Security The Authentication type supports “shared key WEP 64bits", "shared key WEP 128bits”, “WPA-PSK”.

Static Routing Go to Advance Setup Æ Routing Æ ADD ROUTE to set up static route features. The static routing function determines the path that router follows over the network before and after it passes through this router. You can use static routing to allow different IP domain users to access the Internet through this device.
4.4.2 NAT Setting Go to Advanced Setup Æ NAT to set up the NAT features. Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users at your local site to access the Internet through a single public IP address or multiple public IP addresses. NAT can also prevent hacker attacks by mapping local addresses to public addresses for key services such as the Web or FTP.
DMZ Setting Go to Advanced Setup Æ NAT Æ DMZ to set DMZ parameters. If you have a local client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly behind the NAT firewall, you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining a virtual DMZ Host.
Virtual Server Go to Advanced Setup Æ NAT Æ Virtual Server to set virtual server as needed (known as Port Mapping). Virtual server opens the port(s) for specified service and maps the port(s) to the private IP address of the server. It allows remote users accessing services such as the Web or FTP at the local site via public IP address. In other words, it redirects the request from Internet to the local server which is configured with private IP address.
4.4.3 ADSL Go to Advanced Setup Æ ADSL to set up the ADSL mode and ADSL type. ISP should provide you the details required.
4.4.4 Firewall Go to Advanced Setup Æ Firewall to enable or disable Firewall feature.

It means that any access through WAN interface is not allowed.
4.5.2 IP Filtering Go to Access Management Æ IP Filtering to block some packets form WAN. The router provides extensive firewall protection by restricting connection parameters to reduce the risk of intrusion and defending against a wide array of common hacker attacks. It will accept up to 12 IP Filter rules to prevent unwanted access from accessing the services of the router.
4.5.2 SNMP The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) enables a host computer to access configuration, performance and other system data that resides in a database on the modem. The host computer is called a management station and the modem is called an SNMP agent. The data that can be accessed via SNMP is stored in a Management Information Database (MIB) on the modem. Note: Every time you change a setting, you must click APPLY button once to save the setting.
4.5.3 UPnP Universal Plug and Play (UPnP): When a user plugs a device which supports UPnP into the network, the device will configure itself, acquire a TCP/IP address, and use a discovery protocol based on the Internet's Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) to announce its presence on the network to other devices. You can choose “Activated” or “Deactivated” option from this session.
4.5.4 DDNS Go to Access Management Æ DDNS to set up your DDNS parameters. Dynamic DNS (DDNS) allows you to update your dynamic IP address with the dynamic DNS services. So anyone can access your FTP or Web service on your computer using DNS-like address.

multi-bridged environment. When three or more LAN's segments are connected via bridges, a loop can occur. Because a bridge forwards all packets that are not recognized as being local, therefore some packets may circulate for long periods of time, eventually degrading system performance. This algorithm ensures only one path connects any pair of stations, selecting one bridge as the 'root' bridge, with the highest priority one as identifier, from which all paths should radiate.
bridge itself; the bridge is thus transparent to the communicating workstations. It involves frame forwarding, learning workstation addresses and ensuring no topology loops exist (in conjunction with the Spanning-Tree algorithm). UDP User Datagram Protocol - A connectionless transport protocol that runs on top of TCP/IP's IP. UDP, like TCP, uses IP for delivery; however, unlike TCP, UDP provides for exchange of datagrams without acknowledgments or guaranteed delivery.
