[. . . ] In some cases, network mappings cannot be learned because of incompatible addressing schemes. Sometimes a different source and destination path may be desired over the learned paths for example when your ISP assigns you a static route. In these situations, Static Routes can be configured to map a desired pathway. Use the static routes advanced option to configure static routes to remote equipment. Static routing allows a pre-defined route to be set for the transmission of data. Static routes take precedence over all dynamic routing options and also provide enhanced security over dynamic routing. Select Setup>Static Routes from the left navigation pane of the Web interface. This displays the "Static Route Configuration" window. 2. Under Add Route, type the IP address of the destination device in the Destination box. Optionally, type the IP address where the data packets will be forwarded in the Next Hop box. You can repeat this procedure for each static route you wish to add. Note: To edit a static route, click the Edit column for the static route you want to edit. Note: To delete a static route, click the Delete column for the static route you want to delete. 29 4100/4200 Router User's Guide Configuring Network Settings RFC2684 The SpeedStream Router supports two basic types of connections: Point-to-Point (PPP) and RFC2684. By default, RFC2684 connections rely on a server located on the Wide Area Network (WAN) to supply the Router a dynamic IP address and other IP-based configuration parameters for the Router's WAN-side interface. To accomplish this, the Router executes a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) client associated with the WAN-side connection. This client, in turn, communicates with the DHCP server located on the WAN. Under some circumstances, this automated procedure may not be desirable or even possible. In such situations, you will need to disable the DHCP client on the router and manually define the required IP configuration parameters, as supplied by your service provider. Select Setup>RFC2684 from the left navigation pane of the Web interface. Select the connection you want to configure from the Connection drop-down menu. Select one of the following from DHCP: · Enabled Enables the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for the selected connection. · Disable Disables the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for the selected connection. In IP Address, enter the IP address to be used for the WAN-side of the Router, normally obtained from a DHCP server located on the WAN. [. . . ] Before doing this, you must download the upgrade file to your computer. Important: Do not turn off or interrupt the Router during a firmware upgrade session. The Router could be rendered inoperable! 62 Appendix A Troubleshooting Connection problems usually occur when the router's software configuration contains incomplete or incorrect information. The router's diagnostic tools can help you identify and solve many of these problems. A Basic Troubleshooting Steps Before contacting Technical Support, you should attempt to resolve the issue by following these steps: 1. [. . . ]
