Manage the SIP Application-Level Gateway
The application-level gateway (ALG) for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is enabled by default for
enhanced address and port translation. However, some types of VoIP and video traffic might not work well
when the SIP ALG is enabled. For this reason, the router provides the option to disable the SIP ALG.
To change the default SIP ALG setting:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network.
2.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are
case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4.
Select ADVANCED > Setup > WAN Setup.
The WAN Setup page displays.
5.
To disable the SIP ALG, select the Disable SIP ALG check box.
The SIP ALG is enabled by default.
6.
Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Manage the LAN IP Address Settings
The router is preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act as a DHCP server. The
router's default LAN IP configuration is as follows:
•
LAN IP address. 192.168.1.1 (This is the same as www.routerlogin.net.)
•
Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private networks and are
suitable for most applications. The IP address and subnet mask identify which addresses are local to a
specific device and which must be reached through a gateway or router. You might want to change these
settings if you need a specific IP subnet that one or more devices on the network use, or if competing subnets
use the same IP scheme.
