• HeartBeat Signal. HeartBeat Signal (HBS) is a service that applies to connections in Australia only. If your
ISP is Telstra, then select HeartBeat Signal.
User Name and Password. Enter the User Name and Password provided by your ISP.
Server IP Address. This is the IP address that the Router has, when seen from the Internet. Your ISP will
provide you with the IP Address you need to specify here.
Optional Settings
Some of these settings may be required by your ISP. Verify with your ISP before making any changes.
Host Name. In this field, you can type a name of up to 39 characters to represent the Router.
Host Name/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. The default setting, Manual, allows you to enter the largest packet size that will be transmitted.
You should leave this value in the 1200 to 1500 range. To have the Router select the best MTU for your Internet
connection, select Auto.
Network Setup
The Network Setup section changes the settings on the network connected to the Router's Ethernet ports.
Wireless Setup is performed through the Wireless tab.
Router IP
This presents both the Router's IP Address and Subnet Mask as seen by your network.
DHCP Server Settings
The settings allow you to configure the Router's Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server function. The
Router can be used as a DHCP server for your network. A DHCP server automatically assigns an IP address to
each computer on your network. If you choose to enable the Router's DHCP server option, you must configure all
of your network PCs to connect to a DHCP server (the Router), and make sure there is no other DHCP server on
your network.
