7 Using the Configuration Manager's Advanced Program Most users will not need to manually set up their Router. In the unlikely event that you do, you can use the Configuration Manager's Advanced program to change the Router's default settings. Changing Default Settings Here are some reasons why you might want to use the Advanced program to change the Router's default settings. ¾ You want to block access to certain URLs or set up Scheduling usage rules.
Launching the Configuration Manager's Advanced Program 1 Turn on your computer and Router, then launch your Web browser. 2 In the Web browser address bar, type the Router's default IP address, http://192.168.2.1 and then click Enter to launch the Configuration Manager. When the Configuration Manager's MAIN MENU opens, it displays a Status page that summarizes the basic settings and current values for your setup.
Configuring Basic Settings The Basic Settings page lists the four configuration menus on the left pane and provides a description of the configuration menus at center. The Basic Setup Page You can use the Basic Setup page to configure your WAN setup. Most users should configure their WAN settings using the Router’s built in setup wizard. Note: The following image depicts the fields that the program displays when Dynamic IP Address is selected as the WAN Type. The fields will differ for each WAN Type.
WAN Type You can choose from the dropdown menu, based on the WAN connection type that your service provider supports. Host Name (optional) Enter the host name if provided by your ISP. Enable MAC Cloning (optional) This function can change the WAN MAC Address of this device. Use if your ISP requires it. Connection Control AutoReconnect (always-on) is set by default. MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) Default is 1500. NAT On by default.
Virtual Computers: Allows you to set up one-to-one mapping of multiple global IP address and local IP address. Also known as "Static 1-1 NAT" where each LAN host can have a direct and fixed mapping to a global address. Global IP: Enter the global IP address assigned by your ISP. Local IP: Enter the local IP address of your LAN PC corresponding to the global IP address. The LAN Setup Page You can use the LAN Setup page to configure your LAN settings. LAN IP Address This is the address of this device.
Lease Time The maximum amount of time, in minutes, that a network device will have the temporary IP address before a new one is issued by the Router’s DHCP server. IP Pool Starting Address The first IP address of a range that you specify using the Start and End IP Address settings. Your Router's DHCP server will assign the IP addresses in this range at random to the computers and devices in your network. Note that the Start and End IP Addresses must both be in the same subnet as the IP Address, above.
Fixed Mapping Clicking on the Fixed Mapping button brings you to the Fixed Mapping page. On this page you can set your DHCP server to always assign the same IP address to a computer connected to the Router. Otherwise the IP address assigned by the DHCP server could change over time. Fixed Mapping allows you to assign the same IP address to your computer every time. This is important if you are setting up a DMZ, Virtual Server, or Port Forwarding rule to be used with online gaming.
Wireless Accept the default: Enable. Click the Disable checkbox only if you do not want wireless clients to access your network. SSID (Wireless Network Name) Refers to the Service Set Identifier for your device. By default, the Wireless Network Name for the Wireless-N 4-port Router is Zoom. You can change the SSID to a name of your choice. The SSID can be up to 32 alphanumeric characters. If you change the name, make sure that all devices on your network use the new SSID as the access point.
Security Select from the following options: o WPA2/WPA (Recommended): Most users should select the WPA2/WPA option. When you select this option, the Security Key field appears. • Security Key: Please input 8 to 63 characters as your Security key. o Field Entry Security Key In the Security Key field, enter a value for the key between 8 and 63 characters.
recommend using the Setup Wizard with the options above to set up security for your Wireless-N 4-port Router. However, if you choose to use WPS, please refer to Appendix C: Setting up Your Network Using WPS. Click Save to save changes. Click Undo if you need to reset the settings you changed on this page. Wireless Client List: Click to view all clients connected to the Wireless-N 4-port Router. The Change Password Page You can use this page to change your login password.
Configuring Forwarding Rules If you are using your Router for gaming, you may need to make changes to the Router’s firewall setting for the game to work. This is done by setting up a DMZ or virtual server, or using port triggering so that the Router’s firewall won’t block the other players from your system during your gaming. The main difference between the three methods is the amount of access someone has to your system.
The Virtual Server Page You can use the Virtual Server page to configure a virtual server. Because your Router's NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your network, all computers behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you want, you can make some of them accessible by enabling Virtual Server mapping. A virtual server will allow access to your computer on certain ports. A port is like a channel that is used by applications (such as games) to communicate on.
Enable Click to enable the Virtual Server. Schedule Rule# You can enable your virtual server for certain periods of time by assigning it a Rule #. You must first set up the appropriate Scheduling Rule. See The Schedule Rule and Schedule Rule Setting Pages on page 71 for more information. For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.2.5, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.2.6, and a game at 192.168.2.7, then you need, at minimum, to specify the following mapping.
Trigger The outbound port number used by the application. Incoming Ports When the outbound trigger packet is detected, the router opens the specified inbound ports and the inbound packets sent to the specified port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall. Enable Enables access for the specified application. Click Save to store your selection or Undo to remove the entry.
IP Address of DMZ Host A DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of the router’s firewall. It allows a computer or gaming system to be exposed to unrestricted two-way communication for Internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications. Use caution when using a DMZ because your router’s firewall no longer protects the computer that is set up as a DMZ.
Configuring Security Settings The Security Settings page lists six configuration menus on the left pane and provides a description of the configuration menus at center. Packet Filters Page Packet Filtering allows you to control what packets are allowed to pass through the Router. Outbound Packet filters control outbound packets and Inbound Filtering controls packets coming from the Internet. Inbound Filters applies only to packets going to a Virtual Server, DMZ, or Super DMZ.
Filtering Policies You can select one of the two filtering policies. You can either allow or deny data that matches the filtering rule to pass. Filtering Rules You can specify eight rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can define the following: Source IP address Destination IP address Destination Port Schedule Rule# For the Source or Destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1). An empty field implies any IP address.
The Domain Filters Page You can use the Domain Filters page to enable or deny user access to specified URLs. Domain filtering and URL Blocking perform similar functions. The major difference between Domain Filtering and URL Blocking is that Domain Filtering filters an entire Domain (.com, .org) where URL Blocking will block specific WEB sites based on a single word or an enitre URL and everything in between.
Enable Click the checkbox to enable a rule. Schedule Rule # The Rule # set on the Schedule Rule page. Click Save to save changes. Click Undo if you need to reset the settings you changed on this page. The URL Blocking Page You can use the URL Blocking page to block LAN computers from connecting to limit their access to specific websites. The major difference between Domain Filtering and URL Blocking is that Domain Filtering filters an entire Domain (.com, .
URL If any part of the Website's URL matches the pre-defined word, the connection will be blocked if Blacklist is set, or allowed if Whitelist is set. For example, if you set up blacklisting, you can use the pre-defined word, sex, to block all website URLs that contain the pre-defined word, sex. Enable Click the checkbox to enable each rule. Schedule Rule # Click the checkbox to enable each rule. Click Save to save changes. Click Undo if you need to reset the settings you changed on this page.
Connection Control Check Connection Control to specify which wired and wireless clients can connect to this device. If a client is denied a connection to this device, then that client is also denied Internet access. Choose allow or deny to indicate which clients can connect to this device. Association control Check Association control to specify which wireless clients can associate to the wireless LAN.
Please refer to the online help for details about each of the menu items.
Configuring Advanced Settings The Advanced Settings page lists eight menus on the left pane and provides a description of the configuration menus at center. The System Time Page You can use the System Time page to set and synchronize your Router with the local time zone, the Time Server and your PC. You may use either a NTP server, your local PC or manually set the time in the Router.

If you are unsure which time server to use select Auto. Select your Time Zone then click the Sync Now! button to set the time. Click Save to save your settings. To Set the Date and Time using the Local Computer Click the Set Date and Time using PC’s Date ant Time radio button. Click Save to save your settings.
IP Address for Syslogging Host IP address of the destination where the Sys log will be sent. Click the Enable checkbox to set the IP Address as the destination. E-mail alert settings Check Enable if you want to send syslog via email. SMTP Server IP and Port Input the SMTP server IP and port; for example, mail.your_url.com or 192.168.2.100:26. If you do not specify a port number, the port value will be set to 25. SMTP Username and Password Input the SMTP Username and Password.
The Dynamic DNS Page You can use the Dynamic DNS page to define the Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) that will host your server. For example, the DDNS could host your server when you want to host a website on your network but you do not have a static IP. Your DDNS provider keeps track of changes to your IP address and automatically routes users trying to access your web site to the correct location.
The QoS Rule Page You can use the Quality of Service (QoS) page to provide different priorities to different users or data flows, or to guarantee a certain level of performance. QoS Control Click the Enable checkbox to enable QoS. Well Known Services If you want to give priority to one of the defined services in the Well Known Services dropdown menu select the service and the ID to copy it two and click the Copy to button. Local IP Define the local IP address of packets.
Remote: IP Define the remote IP address of packets. Remote: Ports Define the remote port of packets. QoS Priority Select a value from the dropdown menu to define the priority level for the local and remote settings. Packets will be serviced based upon the priority level set. For critical applications, select High or Normal. For non-critical applications, select Low. Normal is the default value. Enable Click the Enable checkbox to apply the settings.
Enable SNMP Click the Local, Remote, or both checkboxes to enable the SNMP function. Check Local if you want the Router to respond to requests from the LAN.
