Chapter 1

Configuring Basic Connectivity

This chapter describes the settings for your Internet connection and your wireless local area

network (LAN) connection. When you perform the initial configuration of your wireless router

using the Resource CD as described in the NETGEAR Wireless Router Setup Manual,these

settings are specified automatically for you. This chapter provides further details about these

connectivity settings, as well as instructions on how to log in to the router for further

configuration.

This chapter includes the following sections:

•“Using the Setup Manual”

•“Logging In to Your Wireless Router” on page 1-2

•“Configuring Your Internet Connection Using the Smart Setup Wizard” on page 1-5

•“Viewing and Configuring Basic ISP Settings” on page 1-5

Using the Setup Manual

For first-time installation of your wireless router, refer to the NETGEAR Wireless Router Setup

Manual. The Setup Manual explains how to launch the NETGEAR Smart Wizard on the Resource

CD to step you through the procedure to connect your router, modem, and computers. The Smart

Wizard assists you in configuring your wireless settings and enabling wireless security for your

network. After initial configuration using the Setup Manual, you can use the information in this

Reference Manual to configure additional features of your wireless router.

For installation instructions in a language other than English, refer to the language options on the

Resource CD.

Note: NETGEAR recommends using the Smart Wizard™ on the Resource CD for initial

configuration, as described in the NETGEAR Wireless Router Setup Manual.

Configuring Your Internet Connection Using the Smart Setup

Wizard

You can manually configure your Internet connection using the Basic Settings screen, or you can

allow the Smart Setup Wizard to determine your Internet Service Provider (ISP) configuration.

The Smart Setup Wizard searches your Internet connection for servers and protocols to determine

your ISP configuration. This feature is not the same as the Smart Wizard configuration assistant

that appears only when the router is in its factory default state. To use the Smart Setup Wizard to

assist with configuration or to verify the Internet connection settings, follow this procedure:

1. From the top of the main menu of the browser interface, click Setup Wizard.

2. Click Next to proceed. Enter your ISP settings, as needed.

3. At the end of the Setup Wizard, click Test to verify your Internet connection. If you have

trouble connecting to the Internet, see Chapter 7, “Troubleshooting.”

Viewing and Configuring Basic ISP Settings

Settings related to your Internet service are specified in the Basic Settings screen. To access the

Basic Settings screen, from the main menu of the router’s Web Configuration Interface, under

Setup, select Basic Settings.

The content you see in the Basic Settings screen depends on whether your ISP requires that you

•No login required by ISP. If no login is required by your ISP, the following settings appear in

the Basic Settings screen.

–Account Name (might also be called Host Name). The account name is provided to the

ISP during a DHCP request from your router. In most cases, this setting is not required,

but some ISPs require it for access to ISP services such as mail or news servers.

–Domain Name. The domain name is provided by your router to computers on your LAN

when the computers request DHCP settings from your router. In most cases, this setting is

not required.

–Internet IP Address. Determines how your router obtains an IP address for Internet

access.

• If your ISP assigns an IP address dynamically (by DHCP), select Get Dynamically

From ISP.

• If your ISP has assigned you a permanent, fixed (static) IP address for your computer,

select Use Static IP Address. Enter the IP address that your ISP assigned. Also, enter

the subnet mask and the gateway IP address. The gateway is the ISP’s router to which

your router will connect.

–Domain Name Server (DNS) Address. If you know that your ISP does not automatically

transmit DNS addresses to the router during login, select Use These DNS Servers, and

enter the IP address of your ISP’s primary DNS server. If a secondary DNS server address

is available, enter it also.

–Router MAC Address. This section determines the Ethernet MAC address that the router

will use on the Internet port. Typically, you would leave Use Default Address selected.

However, some ISPs (especially cable modem providers) register the Ethernet MAC

address of the network interface card in your computer when your account is first opened.

They then accept only traffic from the MAC address of that computer. This feature allows

your router to masquerade as that computer by “cloning” or “spoofing” its MAC address.

To change the MAC address, select one of the following methods:

• Select Use Computer MAC Address. The router will then capture and use the MAC

address of the computer that you are now using. You must be using the one computer

that is allowed by the ISP.

• Select Use This MAC Address, and type it in here.

–Does Your Internet Connection Require A Login?. If you usually must use a login

program such as WinPOET to access the Internet, your Internet connection requires a

figure.

Note: If you enter or change a DNS address, restart the computers on your

network so that these settings take effect.

Note: After you finish setting up your router, you will no longer need to start the

ISP’s login program on your computer to access the Internet. When you

start an Internet application, your router will automatically log you in.

If a login is required by your ISP, the following settings appear in the Basic Settings screen:

–Internet Service Provider. This drop-down list contains a few ISPs that need special

protocols for connection. The list includes:

•PPTP (Point to Point Tunneling Protocol), used primarily in Austrian DSL services

•Telstra Bigpond, an Australian residential cable modem service.

Figure 1-6

Note: The Telstra Bigpond setting is only for older cable modem service

accounts that still require a Bigpond Login utility. Telstra has discontinued

this type of account. Those with Telstra DSL accounts and newer cable

modem accounts should select No for Does Your Internet Connection

Require ALogin?.

ISP does require login

•Other, which selects PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet), the protocol used

by most DSL services worldwide

–Login and Password. This is the user name and password provided by your ISP. This

name and password are used to log in to the ISP server.

–Service Name. If your connection is capable of connecting to multiple Internet services,

this setting specifies which service to use.

–Connection Mode. This drop-down list (shown in Figure 1-6 on page 1-8) specifies when

the router will connect to and disconnect from the Internet. The list includes:

•Always On. The router logs in to the Internet immediately after booting and never

disconnects.

•Dial on Demand. The router logs in only when outgoing traffic is present and logs out

after the idle time-out.

•Manually Connect. The router logs in or logs out only when the user clicks Connect

or Disconnect in the Router Status screen.

–Idle Timeout. Your Internet connection is logged out if there is no data transfer during the

specified time interval.

–Domain Name Server (DNS) Address. If you know that your ISP does not automatically

transmit DNS addresses to the router during login, select Use These DNS Servers, and

enter the IP address of your ISP’s primary DNS server. If a secondary DNS server address

is available, enter it also.

Note: If you enter or change a DNS address, restart the computers on your

network so that these settings take effect.
