NETGEAR N300 Wireless Router with External Antennas WNR1500 User Manual
To add or edit a static route:
1.
Select Advanced > Static Routes. The Static Routes screen displays.
2. Click Add to expand the Static Routes screen.
3. In the Route Name field, enter a name for this static route. (This is for identification purposes
only.)
4. Select the Private check box if you want to limit access to the LAN only. If Private is
selected, the static route is not reported in RIP.
5. Select the Active check box to make this route effective.
6. In the Destination IP Address field, enter the IP address of the final destination.
7. In the IP Subnet Mask field, enter the IP subnet mask for this destination.
If the destination is a single host, enter 255.255.255.255.
8. In the Gateway IP Address field, enter the gateway IP address, which must be a router on
the same LAN segment as the WNR1500 router.
9. In the Metric field, enter a number between 1 and 15 as the metric value.
This represents the number of routers between your network and the destination. Usually,
a setting of 2 or 3 works, but if this is a direct connection, set it to 1.
10. Click Apply to have the static route entered into the table.
Quality of Service
Quality of Service (QoS) is an advanced feature that can be used to prioritize some types of
traffic ahead of others. The WNR1500 router can provide QoS prioritization over the wireless
link.
