Prestige 2802HW(L)-Ix Support Notes

How does e-mail work through the Prestige?

It depends on what kind of IP you have: Static or Dynamic. If your company has a domain name, it means that

you have a static IP address. Suppose your company's e-mail address is xxx@mycompany.com. Joe and

Debbie will be able to send e-mail through Prestige Internet Access Device using jane@mycompany.com and

debbie@mycompany.com respectively as their e-mail addresses. They will be able to retrieve their individual

private and secure e-mail, if they have been assigned the proper access right.

If your company does not have a domain name, it means that your ISP provides you with a dynamic IP address.

Suppose your company's e-mail address is mycompany@ispname.com. Jane and John will be able to send

e-mail through Prestige Internet Access Sharing Router using "jane"<mycompany@ispname.com> and

"john"<mycompany@ispname.com> respectively as their e-mail addresses. Again, they will be able to retrieve

their individual private and secured e-mail, if they have been assigned the proper access right.

Is it possible to access a server running behind SUA from the outside Internet? If possible,

how?

Yes, it is possible because Prestige delivers the packet to the local server by looking up to a SUA server table.

Therefore, to make a local server accessible to the outside users, the port number and the inside IP address of

Network > NAT > Port Forwarding

the server must be configured in WEB GUI

The Prestige supports DHCP client (Ethernet encap) on the WAN port and DHCP server on the LAN port. The

Prestige's DHCP client allows it to get the Internet IP address from ISP automatically if your ISP use DHCP as

a method to assign IP address. The Prestige's internal DHCP server allows it to automatically assign IP and

DNS addresses to the clients on the local LAN.

How do I used the reset button, more over what field of parameter will be reset by reset

button?

the reset button and hold down for approx 5 second, the unit will be reset. When the reset button is pressed the

devices all parameter will be reset back to factory default include, password, and IP address.

The default IP address is 192.168.1.1, Password 1234.
