Compact Wireless-G Broadband Router
Connect on Demand: Max Idle Time. You can configure the Router to cut the Internet connection after it has
been inactive for a specified period of time (Max Idle Time). If your Internet connection has been terminated
due to inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the Router to automatically re-establish your connection as
soon as you attempt to access the Internet again. If you wish to activate Connect on Demand, click the radio
button. In the Max Idle Time field, enter the number of minutes you want to have elapsed before your Internet
connection terminates.
Keep Alive Option: Redial Period. If you select this option, the Router will periodically check your Internet
connection. If you are disconnected, then the Router will automatically re-establish your connection. To use
this option, click the radio button next to Keep Alive. In the Redial Period field, you specify how often you want
the Router to check the Internet connection. The default Redial Period is 30 seconds.
Optional Settings
Some of these settings may be required by your ISP. Verify with your ISP before making any changes.
Host Name and Domain Name. These fields allow you to supply a host and domain name for the Router. Some
ISPs, usually cable ISPs, require these names as identification. You may have to check with your ISP to see if your
broadband Internet service has been configured with a host and domain name. In most cases, leaving these
fields blank will work.
MTU. MTU is the Maximum Transmission Unit. It specifies the largest packet size permitted for Internet
transmission. Select Manual if you want to manually enter the largest packet size that will be transmitted. The
recommended size, entered in the Size field, is 1500. You should leave this value in the 1200 to 1500 range. To
have the Router select the best MTU for your Internet connection, keep the default setting, Auto.

Network Setup

The Network Setup section changes the Router's local network settings. Changes to the Router's wireless
network settings are performed through the Wireless tab.
Router IP
IP Address and Subnet Mask. This shows both the Router's IP Address and Subnet Mask, as seen by your
network. The default IP Address is 192.168.1.1, and the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. In most cases,
keeping the default values will work.
