...you are using a linksys router of any model number in a DSL connection, make sure you know if you have a user name and password provided by your ISP not only for your email account but for your dsl connection to work. I have here 10 simple steps for you to follow in configuring your router to work with your dsl modem. Do NOT run the cd since this is a manual configuration. Make sure you have a working Internet when directly wired to your DSL modem before attempting to configure the router. 1. Reset the router first (while the router is ON, press the reset button at the back using a pen or any sharp object for 10 seconds then release the reset button). Unplug the power cord for 5 seconds and replug it back in. Wait for the power light to go steady before proceeding to the next step. 2. Connect your modem to the Internet Port of your router (make sure that it is only the router that’s connected to the modem and nothing else). Connect your computer to any of the numbered ports of the router. Check the corresponding lights of those ports, they are supposed to lit up. 3. On your computer, launch a browser. On the address bar type 192.168.1.1 and hit the enter key. A user name and password window will appear. Leave the user name blank and by default password isadmin. 4. Under the SETUP tab, for the Internet Connection Type, click the drop down arrow and selectPPPoE. Type in your user name (in email format i.e. username@isp.net/com) and then your password both from your ISP. Make...

So a device which is within this private network cannot be accessed by Internet by entering this IP address. The Router basically assigns any device within its range and the one which needs access- a different IP address which is again private. So a network with multiple devices having Router as 192.168.1.254 consists of all devices having unique IP address which ensures there are no IP conflicts. How to access Admin Panel to...

...(Service Set Identifier) if it is the default one, and change to something unique. Manufacturers give their wireless routers a preset SSID. Changing the SSID to something unique is a good practice. The default SSID will show to a hacker that a novice set the network and that the other settings such as passwords are default. Enable encryption of the wireless router. The routers often come with the encryption disabled. Use 128-bit encryption or higher to increase security. The recommended encryption scheme is WPA2 encryption. Also use longer passwords that use a combination of numbers, letters, and symbols. Enable the MAC Address Filter so that the wireless router screens MAC addresses of devices that connect to the wireless network. The wireless network can be configured in such way that it accepts a connection from wireless devices with allowed MAC addresses. Change the default access password that comes with the wireless router. The default password is for administering the router’s settings. Use a random sequence of the maximum possible character length. Firewalls protect networks from hardware-based and software-based harmful intrusion. The recommended setting is that you enable the built-in firewall of the wireless router. Turn off the setting that allows administering the router through a wireless connection to prevent wireless hacking of any kind into the router. Reference Bejtlich, Richard.

...There are many routers available on the public marker for purchase. The following routers Linksys, D-links, Netgear and Cisco are ones I have come across and worked with Many of the routers that are available at Best Buy are Linksys, D-Link and Netgear that are available for home/office use by regular users from just accessing Internet to playing games and running small home based business. Many of the Linksys SOHO, or small office/home office, routers offer an inexpensive way to add a powerful router/firewall to a small home or office network. Router- A device that forwards data packets along networks. Firewall- Software-based or hardware-based and is used to help keep a network secure SOHO- Small office/Home office. Almost all of the Linksys WRT54G are dual antenna 4 port wireless residential/small business router. From my configuration experience with routers, they all have a 16-32 MB or RAM and 2-8 MB FLASH memory that can be used for editing the firmware or upgrading the ROM to enable more updated features. All Linksys, netgear and D-link routers inter-operate with both 802.11b and 802.11g network protocols, and they are capable of 128 bit WEP, WPA, WPA2 encryption, MAC address filtering, IP address filtering and Internet services control. It allows web browser based configuration, and supports data throughput of up to54Mbps. Almost all time depending on Internet service provider.

...1. Give basic explanation of what router do -A hardware device designed to take incoming packets, analyzing the packets and then directing them to the appropriate locations, moving the packets to another network, converting the packets to be moved across a different type of network interface, dropping the packets, or performing any other number of other types of actions 2. know the differece between crossover, straight through, and rollover cable Straight through- pins are the same on both sides Use a straight-through cable when: -. Connecting a router to a hub -. Connecting a computer to a swtich -. Connecting a LAN port to a switch, hub, or computer This allows for two devices to communicate at the same time. Unlike straight-through cables, we use crossover cables to connect like devices. -. Connecting a computer to a router -. Connecting a computer to a computer -. Connecting a router to a router -. Connecting a switch to a switch -. Connecting a hub to a hub Rollover cables essentially have one end of the cable wired exactly opposite from the other. -Rollover cables, also called Yost cables, usually connect a device to a router or switch’s console port. This allows a programmer to make a connection to the router or switch, and program it as needed. 3.

Your file server can basically be a standard PC that you consider to be your file server. Small Office Network Internet – ISP Wire to office Modem Translates electronic data Router Disperses electronic data Network Adaptor Required for each Computer Wired NIC (network interface card) or Ethernet card Wireless Wireless Adaptor With this configuration you can use the file server as locker for all of your data and set up online backup software to back it up continually. The costs for these services are negligible when considering the frustration and lost time that comes from losing your data. I would like to suggest use static IP addresses to each work station not DHCP. What this means is that the IP address of each machine will remain the same at all times. Removing the variability that is associated with DHCP makes trouble shoots much easier if you have any problems or need to add equipment to the network.

No, By default, Cisco routers are DTE (Data Terminal Equipment)/ DCE (Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment) If not, to what equipment does the DCE end of the serial cable usually connect? If Router A is connected to the DTE end of the cable, Router B must be connected to the DCE end 3. What does a rollover (console) cable look like? Rollover cable is often used to connect a computer terminal to a router's console port. This cable is typically flat (and has a light blue color) with a DB-9 Female end to RJ-45 Male end. 4. What kind of port does the console cable attach to on the computer? Serial Port (dial-up modem) 5. What kind of port does the UTP patch cable attach to on the router?
