To install your gateway and configure your network, follow these steps. Note: Features for different models may vary. Product details will be specified for each particular model. Choose a Computer and Connection Type There are many ways to set up your network, but typically the first computer is located in the same room as the gateway and your DSL connection. Ethernet is the preferred connection method for your first computer, although instructions for connecting via wireless and USB are also provided. The first computer you connect to the network is used to configure the 2Wire gateway for proper operation. Choose one of the following methods to connect your first computer to the gateway. Save and close all open programs before you begin connecting your gateway. Connection Type Ethernet Wireless USB Page page 4 page 5 page 7 Install the DSL Filter Note: New DSL customers only. Existing DSL customers with filters already installed should proceed to Ethernet Connection on page 4, Wireless Connection on page 5, or USB Connection on page 7. Regular telephone and Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) signals are carried over the same line. Converting your regular telephone line to DSL can cause high-pitched tones and static when using the phone. Installing a filter on every telephone or telephone device sharing the same telephone number as your DSL1 separates these signals and eliminates the noise. 1. Do not install DSL filters if your telephone line is only carrying a DSL signal. 2 DRAFT ONLY2Wire Confidential Connect the First Computer to the Gateway To install the DSL filter:
1. Locate the phone jack where you want to connect your 2Wire gateway. Insert the DSL filter into the jack. If you have a phone, answering machine, fax machine, satellite TV equipment, or other phone device in this jack location, plug it into the filter port labeled PHONE. Install a DSL filter on all other phone devices in your house (such as dial-up modems, fax machines, caller ID devices, and set top boxes). Plug each of these devices into the filter port labeled PHONE. 2. 3. 4. For Wall-Mounted Phones If you have a wall-mounted telephone, install a wall-mount DSL filter following these steps. 1. Lift the telephone from the wall pegs and disconnect the phone cord from the wall jack. 2. Connect the telephone cord from the back of the DSL filter into the wall jack. Align the keyhole slots on the filter with the wall plate pegs and press down gently to secure. 3. Connect the telephone cord to the phone jack located on the front of the mounted filter. 4. Attach the telephone to the mounting pegs on the DSL filter and your installation is complete.

The high-performance router distributes data seamlessly to all of the computers on your network, without a dramatic loss of performance or speed. Professional-grade firewall. The 2Wire gateway firewall includes both standard NAT/PAT security and Stateful Packet Inspection to defend against Denial of Service Internet attacks. Flexible networking. The 2Wire gateway includes a variety of home networking technologies in one box:
Ethernet, direct USB, and HyperG wireless2. Use any or all of the following technologies to create a network with your computers and peripherals. Networking Technology Overview Ethernet. Ethernet is a local area network (LAN) technology that transmits information between computers at speeds of 10 or 100 Mbps. 2Wire gateways have either 1 or 4 Ethernet ports for directly connecting computers or devices. If your home or office is wired for Ethernet, you can use the Ethernet interface(s) on the gateway to create a broadband network. USB. The 2Wire gateways USB 1.1 port allows you to directly connect a computer or other network-ready device. Wireless. The 2Wire gateway includes an integrated wireless access point, which allows users to roam wirelessly throughout the home or office. 2Wire's high-powered wireless technology virtually eliminates wireless coldspots in the home. The 2Wire gateways high power 400mW transmitter ensures that users benefit from increased wireless bandwidth throughout the coverage area. In addition, the 2Wire gateway employs a special triple antenna design. The third antenna is used only for transmitting packets, thus mitigating the power loss associated with switching the antenna use back and forth between transmit and receive. This results in greater access point sensitivity, as antenna placement can be better optimized with a dedicated set of receive-only antennas. 1. The 200 series gateways connect via Ethernet. 2. Some interfaces are not available on specific models. 1 System Tab This chapter describes the 2Wire gateway System features.

View Broadband Link Details Page The following table shows the information that may be displayed on the Broadband Link Details page. Note: The information displayed depends on the type of broadband service you have and your gateway model. Item DSL Connection DSL Line (Wire Pair) Protocol Description The DSL signal can be transmitted on Line 1 (inner pair) or Line 2 (outer pair). During installation, the gateway automati-
cally detects on which line the DSL signal is being transmit-
ted. Displays which DSL protocol is being used to communicate between your system and your service provider. 12 Broadband Link Tab Item Downstream Rate Upstream Rate Channel Current Noise Margin Current Attenuation Current Output Power DSLAM Vendor Information PVC Info Internet Connection Details Connection Type Username Description The speed at which data comes over your broadband connec-
tion from the Internet to your network, measured in kilobits per second (kbps). The speed at which data goes over your broadband connec-
tion from your network to the Internet, measured in kilobits per second (kbps). The setting in this field is determined by your ISPs DSLAM equipment. Indicates how much the noise on the DSL line can increase before it begins to affect the DSL signal. As the noise on the DSL line increases, the margin will approach zero. If the noise exceeds the current noise margin, the DSL signal will be lost. The level is measured in decibels (dBs). Represents the decrease in signal strength between origina-
tion of the DSL (Central Office) and your gateway. Customers who live close to their Central Office usually will have less sig-
nal loss and a low current attenuation. The level is measured in decibels (dBs). The current DSL transmit power of your gateway. The level is measured in decibels (dBs). A DSLAM is the piece of equipment located in the Central Office (CO) that provides the DSL signal to your DSL line. The Vendor Information identifies information about the configura-
tion of this equipment. Displays the pair of numbers that uniquely identifies the ATM virtual circuit between the system and the provider of your DSL service. Identifies the method by which the gateway connects to the Internet Service Provider (ISP): PPPoE, PPPoA, or Direct. The name used to connect with your Internet Service Provider
(ISP). Your username was either assigned to you or configured by you during the install process. The correct username is required to successfully connect to the Internet. 13 Broadband Link Tab Item Internet Address Subnet Mask Default Gateway Primary Domain Name Server Description A number that is assigned to a computer so that it can com-
municate on a network and on the Internet. This address is assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider for all com-
munication on the Internet, and can be either Static (perma-
nently assigned and manually entered) or Dynamic
(automatically assigned and configured). The typical configuration is for your ISP to automatically assign and configure an Internet address (Dynamic) when your system connects to the Internet. Businesses or power users may use a static address enabling them to run advanced services such as Internet servers and video conferencing. Static addresses typically cost more because they must be leased from the ISP. If you receive your Internet address settings automatically, the subnet mask has been set for you. If you manually set your Internet address (Static IP), this is the information that was provided to you by your ISP and entered by you during gateway installation. Part of the Internet address settings and used in conjunction with your Internet address. If you receive your Internet address settings automatically, the subnet mask has been set for you. If you manually set your Internet address (Static IP), this is the information that was provided to you by your ISP and entered by you during gateway installation. Part of the Internet address settings. The default gateway is a device your 2Wire gateway communicates with directly to give you access to the Internet. If you receive your Internet address settings automatically, the subnet mask has been set for you. If you manually set your Internet address (Static IP), this is the information that was provided to you by your ISP and entered by you during the sys-
tem installation. Part of the Internet address settings. A domain name is a meaningful, easy-to-remember handle for an Internet address. The DNS allows Internet users to specify a name
(domain name) to reach a Web page (for example, www.domainname.com) instead of its Internet address (for example, 111.222.111.222). When you enter the name of a Web location (URL), the DNS looks up the name and resolves it to the Web pages Internet address. If you receive your Internet address settings automatically, the subnet mask has been set for you. If you manually set your Internet address (static IP), this is the information that was provided to you by your ISP and entered by you during gateway installation. 14 Broadband Link Tab Item Description Secondary Domain Name Server Domain Used as a backup if the Primary server fails to respond. If you receive your Internet address settings automatically, the subnet mask has been set for you. If you manually set your Internet address (Static IP), this is the information that was provided to you by your ISP and entered by you during the sys-
tem installation. This parameter may not be necessary and may be left blank. The name that associates your gateway with your ISP on the broadband link. This parameter may not be necessary and may be left blank. If you receive your Internet address settings automatically, the subnet mask has been set for you. If you manually set your Internet address (Static IP), this is the information that was provided to you by your ISP and entered by you during gateway installation. Maximum Transmission Unit
(MTU) Shows the maximum size allowed on packets that are sent to and from your network to your ISP. Gateway Ping DNS Communication Configuration Server Post The 2Wire gateway periodically checks the connection between itself and your ISP's Default Gateway. This field informs you that the check has been performed and whether or not it was successful. The gateway periodically checks the connection between itself and your ISP's domain name server(s) to make sure DNS is available. This field informs you that the check has been per-
formed and whether or not it was successful. The gateway periodically checks the connection between itself and the 2Wire Component Management System. This field informs you that the check has been performed and whether or not it was successful. Monitor Internet Connection The Monitor Internet connection link launches the Speed Meter. The Speed Meter measures the actual rate at which data is coming into (Incoming Kbps) and going out of (Outgoing Kbps) your system. It measures real-time data throughput in Kilobits per second and displays in one-second intervals. The Speed Meter monitors the actual data rates while connecting to a Web site. This data rate can differ from the reported speed of your broadband connection due to many factors, including traffic to the Web site or the speed of the Web servers at the site you are visiting. Note: To use the Speed Meter, your browser must support Java 2. 15 Broadband Link Tab Test Connection Speed The Test connection speed link launches the 2Wire Bandwidth Meter. The Bandwidth Meter measures the maximum download speed from 2Wires Web site to your system in Kilobits per second (Kbps). The 2Wire Bandwidth Meter estimates your connection speed from the Internet. Because the Internet consists of thousands of interconnections, your connection to a Web site could be affected by many different factors. If you experience slow performance on a particular Web site, you can use the 2Wire Bandwidth Meter to verify whether this is isolated to that particular Web site, or if it is a more general occurrence. Because the 2Wire Bandwidth Meter measures the download speed from 2Wires Web site to your computer and can be affected by many factors on the Internet, it is not an accurate measurement of the service from your ISP. Using Broadband Diagnostics Diagnostics displays an itemized list of your broadband connections current status.

If you are having problems with your wireless network, it could be due to radio interference. You can change the wireless channel to see if interference is reduced on a different channel. Note: For more information on wireless channels, refer to the wireless channel entry on page 123 in the Glossary.
Authentication. The security method used to ensure that users are authorized to access the wireless network: WEP-Open, WEP-Shared, or WPA-PSK.
Encryption. The security setting that makes it difficult for unauthorized users to access your network. Customizing Security Settings You should always enable encryption for wireless communication. When encryption is enabled, you must define an encryption key for the 2Wire gateways wireless access point and configure that same key on each wireless client that will use your 2Wire gateway wireless network. Note: If encryption is enabled, each wireless client must be configured with the encryption key defined on the system before it can operate on your wireless network. You can customize the following wireless settings in the Wireless Security panel. 1. From the Authentication pull-down menu, select an authentication setting: WEP-Open, WEP-Shared, or WPA-PSK. Note: WPA-PSK authentication is supported only on HG model gateways. Open authentication allows users to configure their wireless adapter as either Open or Shared; in either case an encryption key is required. Shared authentication allows users to configure their wireless adapter for Shared authentication, which requires an encryption key. WPA-PSK requires that users configure their wireless adapter using TKIP. 2. To use the encryption key that came with your gateway, click the Use default encryption key radio button. To create a custom encryption key, click the Use custom encryption key radio button. If you select Use custom encryption key, you can define a 64-bit or 128-bit encryption key. For 64-bit encryption, enter a 10-digit hexadecimal number. For 128-bit encryption, enter a 26-digit hexadecimal number. A hexadecimal number uses the characters 0-9, a-f, or A-F. 3. Click SAVE. 27 Home Network Tab Configuring Additional Settings The Additional Settings panel allows you to customize wireless settings. In general, it is recommended that you leave the default settings in place; however, if you are experiencing connection or performance difficul-
ties, altering these settings may improve performance. Note: Because the fields that display are dependent on the type of wireless adapter you are using, some of these settings may not display.
Wireless Mode. Allows you to force the gateway to use 802.11b/g, 802.11b-only, or 802.11g-only modes of operation. Note: This field displays only for 802.11b/g based models.
DTIM Period (seconds). Determines at which interval the access point will send its broadcast traffic. The default value is 4 seconds.
Maximum Connection Rate. The maximum rate at which your wireless connection works (1, 2, 5.5, 11, or 22 Mbps for 802.11b-based models; 1, 2, 5.5, 11, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, or 54 Mbps for 802.11b/
g-based models).
Power Setting. Allows you to select the power level for your wireless connection. The default list is 1 to 4; additional options may appear based on the service providers configuration. If you have customized your wireless system configuration, you can restore the wireless settings to factory defaults by clicking the RESTORE DEFAULTS button. Configuring Advanced Settings The Edit Advanced Home Network Settings page displays the current IP settings in use by your system for your home network, and allows you to configure your home network settings. You should adjust these settings ONLY if you are very familiar with computer networking technologies. The Current Settings panel shows the following information:
Router Address. The IP address used by your system on the private home network (the default is 192.168.0.1). The system has two IP addresses: a private address that it uses on the home network, and one that is used on the public broadband connection on the Internet. You can change the home network IP address by changing the home network IP address range.
Subnet Mask. The subnet mask is determined by the home network IP address range settings (the default is 255.255.0.0).
DHCP Range. The range of IP addresses used by your system (the default is 192.16.1.33 through 192.16.1.250). IP addresses can be either static (permanently assigned) or dynamic (automatic and temporary). Setting up a Private Network By default, the 2Wire gateway uses the 192.168.1.0/255.255.0.0 IP address range. You can select from two additional IP address ranges, or configure the network settings manually. You should manually configure 28 Home Network Tab these settings ONLY if you thoroughly understand IP internetworking, because an incorrect configuration can cause unpredictable results. To set up a private network:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Home Network tab.
Click the Advanced Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Advanced Home Network Settings page. Figure 14. Advanced Home Network Settings Page 29 Home Network Tab 1.

Note: If you change the home network IP address range, you must renew the DHCP lease on all devices on your home network and manually reconfigure all devices configured with static IP addresses. If you are using the 2Wire Network Support Tool, you can renew the DHCP lease by selecting Refresh Network Connection in the Network Support Tool menu. Setting Up a Public Network The Public Network pane allows you to create a local network that has broadband network-accessible IP addresses by creating a route from the Internet to the specified public network. The public network operates without Network Address Translation (NAT). This feature is typically used in conjunction with broadband service that provides a range of available IP addresses. Once enabled, the public IP addresses can be assigned to local computers. To set up a public network:
1. Check the Enable checkbox. 2. 3. In the Router Address field, enter the router address (this is typically provided by your service provider). In the Subnet Mask field, enter the subnet mask (this is typically provided by your service provider). 4. Click SAVE. 30 Home Network Tab Setting Up a Bridge Network The Bridge Network pane allows you to create a local network that has broadband-accessible IP addresses. Bridge Network is a public network in which the local network is an extension of the broadband network and does not require any special routing. Computers that are assigned Bridge Network IP addresses operate without Network Address Translation (NAT). This feature is typically used in conjunction with broadband service that provides a range of IP addresses. Once enabled, the bridge network IP addresses can be assigned to local computers. To set up a bridge network:
1. Check the Enable checkbox. 2. In the Subnet Mask field, enter the subnet mask (this is typically provided by your service provider, and defines how large your IP pool is). 3. Click SAVE. Showing a Device as Inactive To show a device as Inactive:

Firewall Features The 2Wire gateway has a professional-grade firewall to help prevent unauthorized users from accessing your local network. The 2Wire gateway firewall includes the following features:
Stateful packet inspection. Blocks common Denial of Service attacks (such as SYN/FIN flooding or Smurf), and detects and logs TCP and UDP port scans. Stateless packet inspection. Filters specific NetBios traffic, suspicious packets and IP fragments; blocks packets sent from the private network to the Internet that have spoofed IP addresses. Network Address Translation (NAT). Translates a local networks IP address to an external address maintained by the 2Wire gateway, effectively hiding the existence of a home network to the Internet. The 2Wire gateway then uses this external address to communicate with the Internet on behalf of devices connected to the local network. Port Address Translation (PAT). A function provided by some routers which allows hosts on a LAN to communicate with the rest of a network (such as the Internet) without revealing their own private IP address. All outbound packets have their IP address translated to the routers external IP address. Replies come back to the router, which then translates them back into the private IP address of the original host for final delivery. During PAT, each computer on the LAN is translated to the same IP address, but with a different port number assignment. Inbound and outbound port blocking. Blocks common inbound and outbound protocol types from passing information to or receiving information from the Internet. 35 Firewall Tab Viewing Your Firewall Summary The Firewall Summary page provides summary information and links to the most commonly used security-
related features of your system. To access the Firewall Summary page:
Open a Web browser and access the gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab to open the View Firewall Summary page. Figure 15. View Firewall Summary Page The Firewall Settings panel displays the Current Settings for your firewall.
Default. Unsolicited inbound traffic is not allowed to pass through the firewall.
Custom. Applications are associated with computers on your network. An access list shows the computers (Devices) on your network and the names of the Allowed Applications for each computer. When you allow application traffic, external users on the Internet can have limited access to your home network. This access might be required to allow some programs (such as game servers or instant messaging software) to operate properly. For example, a remote game player on the Internet might need to contact the game server program that you have installed on your home network in order to play against you. Normally, the firewall blocks this communication. By changing the firewall settings, this communication is permitted to pass through a pinhole in the firewall. This function may be referred to as port-mapping or port-forwarding in your software program documentation. 36 Click VIEW DETAILS to access the Firewall Details page, which shows a list of all the devices that have applications configured in the firewall and the details of these configurations. Firewall Tab Figure 16. View Firewall Details Page If you have the Firewall Monitor enhanced service, the Firewall Monitor panel shows a brief summary of the number of attacks that were blocked for the current day and week. Click VIEW DETAILS to access the Monitor the Firewall page. Hosting an Application When you host an application on your network for Internet users to access, you must configure the 2Wire gateway firewall to pass through specific application data to a selected computer. To host an application:
Open a Web browser and access the gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab. 37
Click the Firewall Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Firewall Settings page. Firewall Tab Figure 17. Edit Firewall Settings Page 1. From the Select a computer pull-down menu, select the computer that you wish to host the application. 2. Click the Allow individual application(s) radio button. 3. In the Applications panel, select an application. 4. Click the ADD > button. The application you selected now appears in the Hosted Applications pane. 5. Click DONE. To stop hosting an application:
1. In the Hosted Applications panel, select the application you wish to stop hosting. 2. Click the < REMOVE button. 3. Click DONE. 38 Firewall Tab Updating the Application Profile List If the application you want to host does not appear in the Application Profile list, you may need to update the application list. If an update is available, the UPDATE APPLICATION LIST button appears above the list of application profiles. If the application that you want to host is not included in the updated application list, you may need to add your own application profile. Adding an Application Profile If you wish to host an application that is not included in the Application Profile list, you can add an application using the Add Application Profile page. An application profile configures your systems firewall to pass through application-specific data. This feature is typically used if the application for which you would like to pass through data to a given computer is new or has been recently updated to a new version. To create a new application profile:
Open a Web browser and access the gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click the Firewall Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Firewall Settings page.
In the Applications panel, click the Add a new user-defined application link to open the Edit Application page. Figure 18. Edit Application Page 39 Firewall Tab 1. In the Application Name field, enter a name for the application profile. You can enter any name you like, although its recommended that you use the name of the application (for example, Redwing Game Server). 2. In the Definition panel, create a definition for your application. A definition consists of a series of protocol-specific ports that are to be allowed through the firewall. This information should be contained in the documentation provided by the company that produces the application. a. b. c. d. In the Protocol field, select the TCP or UDP radio button. If the application you are adding requires both, you must create a separate definition for each. In the Port (or Range) field, enter the port or port range the application uses. For example, some applications may require only one port to be opened (such as TCP port 500);
others may require that all TCP ports from 600 to 1000 be opened. In the Protocol Timeout (seconds) field, you may optionally enter a value for the amount of time that can pass before the application times out. You can also leave the field blank, in which case the system uses the default values (86,400 seconds for the TCP protocol; 600 seconds for the UDP protocol). In the Map to Host Port field, enter a value that will map the port range you established in step b to the local computer. For example, if you set the value to 4000 and the range being opened is 100 to 108, the forwarded data to the first value in the range will be sent to 4000. Subsequent ports will be mapped accordingly; 101 will be sent to 4001, 102 will be sent to 4002, etc. e. From the Application Type drop-down menu, select the application type. If you do not know the application type, select None (Default). 3. Click ADD DEFINTION to add the values to the profile definition list. 4. Click DONE. Repeat these steps for each port or range of ports required for the application profile. To edit or delete an application profile:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click the Firewall Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Firewall Settings page. 40
In the Applications panel, click the Edit or delete user-defined application link. The Select a Hosted Application page opens. Firewall Tab Figure 19. Select a Hosted Application Page 1.

Make the necessary changes to the application profile and click DONE. g. To delete the application profile, click DELETE. Allowing all Applications (DMZplus) DMZplus is a special firewall mode that is used for hosting applications if you cannot get an application to work properly using the Allow individual application(s) option. When in DMZplus mode, the designated computer:
Shares your gateways IP address (Router Address).
Appears as if it is directly connected to the Internet.
Has all of the unassigned TCP and UDP ports opened and pointed to it.
Can receive unsolicited network traffic from the Internet. Although the computer in DMZplus mode appears to Internet users as though it is directly connected to the Internet, it is still protected by your system firewall. All traffic is inspected by the firewall's Stateful Packet Inspection engine and all known hacker attacks continue to be blocked. Because all filtered traffic is forwarded to the designated computer, you should use DMZplus mode with caution. A computer in DMZplus mode is less secure because all available ports are open and all incoming Internet traffic is directed to this computer. 41 Firewall Tab Note: DMZplus can only be configured for one computer on your home network at a time. To configure DMZplus:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click the Firewall Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Firewall Settings page. Figure 20. Edit Firewall Settings Page 1. From the Select a computer pull-down menu, select the computer to which you would like to have all data sent. 2. Click Allow all applications (DMZplus mode). 3. Click DONE. 42 Firewall Tab 4. Access the computer that you selected in step 1. 5. Confirm that the computer is configured for DHCP. If it is not, configure it for DHCP. 6. Restart the computer. When the computer restarts, it receives a special IP address from the system and all unassigned TCP and UDP ports are forwarded to it. To stop DMZplus:
1. From the Select a computer pull-down menu, select the computer for which you would like to disable DMZplus. 2. In the Edit firewall settings for this computer pane, click Maximum protection. 3. Click DONE. 4. Access the computer that you selected in step 1. If the computer will continue to automatically obtain an IP address, proceed to step 5. If the computer will have a static IP address, configure it with a valid static IP address. 5. Restart the computer. Viewing the Firewall Log The 2Wire gateway keeps a log of all firewall-related events that occur. Each log entry contains the date and time the event occurred, the severity level of the event, and details about the event. To view the log:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab. 43
Click the Firewall Log link under the tab to open the View Firewall Log page. Firewall Tab Figure 21. View Firewall Log Page The following table provides additional information about the log entries. Severity
Info. Informational onlythe event does not imply a threat to network security. Low. Occurs when the firewall detects a low-level threat to the network, such as an invalid IP header or invalid packet length.
Medium. Occurs when a medium-level threat is detected, such as an invalid IP fragment offset.
High. Occurs when an attack is launched against the network (for example, a SYN Flood). Details Includes the following information:
The IP address from which the packet originated. The destination IP address of the packet. The action that was taken. Click CLEAR LOG to clear the log. 44 Configuring the Firewall (Advanced) The Edit Advanced Firewall Settings page allows you to configure advanced features on your firewall. Firewall Tab Figure 22. Edit Advanced Firewall Settings Page Note: These features should be used only if you are thoroughly familiar with firewalls and networking. Enabling Advanced Security Your 2Wire gateway firewall already provides a high level of security. You can configure the firewall to provide advanced security features, including stealth mode, strict UDP, or block pings. 45 Firewall Tab Stealth Mode In normal firewall operation, when an unknown remote device makes a request to connect to a users network the firewall does not allow the connection to be made and responds with a connection not available message. This may not discourage a determined hacker, because the message confirms that there is an active network sending the response. The hacker may then use more sophisticated tools in an attempt to access your network. When in stealth mode, the 2Wire gateway firewall does not return any information in response to network queries; that is, it will appear to the hacker who is trying to access your network that your network does not exist. This discourages hackers from further attempts at accessing your network, because to them it will appear as though there is no active network to access. To enable Stealth Mode:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click the Advanced Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Advanced Firewall Settings page. 1. In the Security pane, click the Stealth Mode checkbox. 2. Click SAVE. 46 Firewall Tab Block Ping Ping is a basic Internet program that, when used without malicious intent, allows a user to verify that a particular IP address exists and can accept requests. Ping is used diagnostically to ensure that a host computer you are trying to reach is operating. It can also be used to see how long it takes to get a response back from a specific host computer. Hackers can use ping to launch an attack against your network, because ping can determine the number form of the networks IP address (for example, 105.246.172.72) from the domain name (for example, www.mynetwork.com). If you enable Block Ping, your network will block all ping requests. To block ping:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click the Advanced Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Advanced Firewall Settings page. 1. In the Security pane, click the Block Pings checkbox. 2. Click SAVE. 47 Firewall Tab Strict UDP Session Control Enabling this feature provides increased security by preventing the 2Wire gateway from accepting packets sent from an unknown source over an existing connection. Strict UDP instructs the 2Wire gateway to be more restrictive about what packets are allowed to transmit over an established connection from a local network computer to the Internet. In addition to relying on information about the destination (3-tuple), the 2Wire gateway will also use information about the source of the connection (5-tuple). Note: The ability to send traffic based on destination only is required by some applications. Enabling this feature may not allow some on-line applications to work properly. To enable strict UDP session control:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click the Advanced Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Advanced Firewall Settings page. 1. In the Security pane, click the Strict UDP Session Control checkbox. 2. Click SAVE. 48 Firewall Tab Allowing Inbound and Outbound Traffic The Inbound and Outbound Control pane displays some common protocol types. When one of the Inbound protocol boxes is checked, the firewall allows the corresponding protocol to pass through from the Internet to the network. If one of the Outbound protocol boxes is checked, the firewall allows the traffic from the network to pass through the firewall to the Internet. Note: If you configure the firewall to block an Inbound protocol, you may disable support for hosted applications that require that type of protocol. To block an Inbound or Outbound protocol:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click the Advanced Settings link under the tab to open the Edit Advanced Firewall Settings page. 1. In the Inbound and Outbound Control pane, deselect the checkbox of the protocol you wish to block. 2. Click SAVE. Disabling Attack Detection By default, the 2Wire gateway firewall rules block the attack types listed in the Attack Detection pane. There are some applications and devices that require the use of specific data ports through the firewall. The gateway allows users to open the necessary ports through the firewall using the Firewall Settings page. If the user requires that a computer have all incoming traffic available to it, this computer can be set to the DMZplus mode. While in DMZplus mode, the computer is still protected against numerous broadband attacks (for example, SYN Flood or Invalid TCP flag attacks). In rare cases, the incoming traffic may be inadvertently blocked by the firewall (for example, when integrating with external third-party firewalls or VPN servers). You may need to disable one or more of the attack detection capabilities for any device placed in the DMZplus. In this case, the third-party server provides the attack protection normally provided by the gateway. 49 The following table lists the attacks for which the gateway firewall filters continuously check. Attack Description and Action Taken Excessive Session Detection TCP/UDP Port Scan Invalid Source/Destination IP address When enabled, the firewall will detect applications on the local network that are creating excessive sessions out to the Internet. This activity is likely due to a virus or worm infected computer (for example, Blaster Worm). When the event is detected, the gateway displays a HURL warning page. A port scan is a series of messages sent by someone attempting to break into a computer to learn which com-
puter network services, each associated with a well-known port number (such as UDP and TCP), the computer pro-
vides. When enabled, the firewall detects UDP and TCP port scans, and drops the packet. When enabled, the firewall will verify IP addresses by checking for the following:
IP source address is broadcast or multicast drop packet. TCP destination IP address is not unicast drop packet. IP source and destination address are the same drop packet. Invalid IP source received from private/home network drop packet. Packet Flood (SYN/UDP/ICMP/
Other) When enabled, the firewall will check for SYN, UDP, ICMP, and other types of packet floods on the local and Internet facing interfaces and stop the flood. Invalid TCP Flag Attacks (NULL/
XMAS/Other) When enabled, the firewall will scan inbound and out-
bound packets for invalid TCP Flag settings, and drop the packet to prevent SYN/FIN, NULL, and XMAS attacks. Invalid ICMP Detection The firewall checks for invalid ICMP/code types, and drops the packet. Miscellaneous The firewall checks for the following:
Unknown IP protocol drop packet. Port 0 attack detected drop packet. TCP SYN packet drop packet. Not a start session packet drop packet. ICMP destination unreachable terminate session. To disable attack detection for a specific port:
Open a Web browser and access the 2Wire gateway user interface by entering http://2Wire.gateway.net.

Figure 32. MDC Local Network Wireless Settings Page The Current Settings panel shows the 2Wire gateways wireless access point settings.
Access Point. The designated name of the wireless access point.
Network Name. The name assigned to your wireless network. The default is 2WIREXXX, where XXX represents the last three digits of your 2Wire gateway serial number (for example, 2WIRE954).
Channel. The radio frequency band the access point uses for your wireless network (the default is 6). Wireless adapter cards auto-detect the channels to use. If you are having problems with your wireless network, it could be due to radio interference. You can change the wireless channel to see if interference is reduced on a different channel.
Authentication. The security method used to ensure that users are authorized to access the wireless network: WEP-Open, WEP-Shared, or WPA-PSK.
Encryption. The security setting that makes it difficult for unauthorized users to access your network. 74 Management and Diagnostic Console The Settings panel allows you to change the Network Name and Wireless Channel, and enable SSID broadcast. Customizing Security Settings You should always enable encryption for wireless communication. When encryption is enabled, you must define an encryption key for the 2Wire gateways wireless access point and configure that same key on each wireless client that will use your 2Wire gateway wireless network. Note: If encryption is enabled, each wireless client must be configured with the encryption key defined on the system before it can operate on your wireless network. You can customize the following wireless settings in the Wireless Security panel. 1. From the Authentication pull-down menu, select an authentication setting: WEP-Open, WEP-Shared, or WPA-PSK. Open authentication allows users to configure their wireless adapter as either Open or Shared; in either case an encryption key is required. Shared authentication allows users to configure their wireless adapter for Shared authentication, which requires an encryption key. WPA-PSK requires that users configure their wireless adapter using TKIP. 2. To use the encryption key that came with your gateway, click the Use default encryption key radio button. To create a custom encryption key, click the Use custom encryption key radio button. If you select Use custom encryption key, you can define a 64-bit or 128-bit encryption key. For 64-bit encryption, in the Key field enter a 10-digit hexadecimal number. For 128-bit encryption, enter a 26-digit hexadecimal number. A hexadecimal number uses the characters 0-9, a-f, or A-F. 3. Click the Submit button. Additional Settings The Additional Settings panel allows you to customize wireless settings. In general, it is recommended that you leave the default settings in place; however, if you are experiencing connection or performance difficulties, altering these settings may improve performance. Note: Because the fields that display are dependent on the type of wireless adapter you are using, some of these settings may not display.
Wireless Mode. Allows you to force the gateway to use 802.11b/g, 802.11b-only, or 802.11g-only modes of operation.

If the feature is not enabled, an error message will display when you click the link to access this page. The Local Network - Configuration page allows you to change the gateways default local network settings. You must click the Submit button for changes to take effect. Figure 33. MDC Local Network Configuration Page Private Network Settings By default, the gateway uses the 192.168.0.1/255.255.0.0 IP address range. The Private Network pane allows you to change the IP address range used by the local network. You can choose from three standard configuration options, or configure the network settings manually. 76 Management and Diagnostic Console Note: If you change the local network IP address range, you must renew the DHCP lease on all devices on the gateways local network and manually reconfigure all devices configured with static IP addresses. Public Network Settings The Public Network pane allows you to create a local network that has broadband network-accessible IP addresses by creating a route from the Internet to the public network specified. The public network operates without the use of Network Address Translation (NAT). This feature is typically used in conjunction with broadband service that provides a range of available IP addresses. Once enabled, the public IP addresses can be assigned to local computers. Bridge Network Settings The Bridge Network pane allows you to create a local network that has broadband-accessible IP addresses. Bridge Network is a public network in which the local network is an extension of the broadband network and does not require any special routing. Computers that are assigned Bridge Network IP addresses operate without the use of Network Address Translation (NAT). This feature is typically used in conjunction with broadband service that provides a range of IP addresses. Once enabled, the bridge network IP addresses can be assigned to local computers. Display Settings If the Show Inactive Devices checkbox is checked, devices that are no longer on the local network will display in the Local Network Local Devices list as an inactive device. If this checkbox is not checked, inactive devices will not be displayed in the device list. Enable Router Behind Router Alert If the Display alert when another router is connected to this router checkbox is checked, the Router Behind Router error page displays in the gateway user interface if the gateway detects the presence of a third-party router. If a third-party router is connected to the 2Wire gateway, the network can become unstable because both devices are trying to manage private IPs via NAT. 77 Management and Diagnostic Console Local Network - Address Allocation Page Note: To access this page, your organization must have the Remote Management feature enabled.

If both protocols are required, you must create a definition for each. In the Port (or Range) field, enter the port or port range used by the application. In the Protocol Timeout (seconds) field, enter the amount of time (in seconds) that the connection in the specified range should remain open when there is no data transfer. In most cases the default value is appropriate. In the Map to Host Port field, enter the value that provides the mapping offset to the local computer. For example, if this value is set to 4000 and the range being opened is 100 to 108, the forwarded data to the first value in the range will be sent to 4000. Subsequent ports will be mapped accordingly; 101 will be sent to 4001, 102 will be sent to 4002, etc. 81 Management and Diagnostic Console 7. From the Application Type pull-down menu, select the application type: None (Default), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Microsoft Games, H.323-based Internet telephony, IRC (Internet relay chat) server, or PPTP virtual private network server. 8. Click the Add Definition button. 9. Repeat the previous step for each port or range of ports required for the application profile. Allowing all applications DMZplus is used for hosting applications if an application will not operate properly using the Allow individual application(s) option. When in DMZplus mode, the designated computer:
Shares the gateways IP address.
Appears as if it is directly connected to the Internet.
Has all of the unassigned TCP and UDP ports opened and pointed to it.
Can receive unsolicited network traffic from the Internet. Note: DMZplus can only be configured for one computer on the local network at a time. To configure a computer on the users network for DMZplus mode:

The Pinholes pane shows the number of pinholes that are currently open. There are 192 pinholes available. NAT Sessions The NAT Sessions pane shows the number of NAT sessions currently running. 83 Management and Diagnostic Console Firewall - Advanced Settings Page Note: To access this page, your organization must have the Remote Management feature enabled. If the feature is not enabled, an error message will display when you click the link to access this page. The Firewall - Advanced Settings page allows you to configure the gateways firewall. Figure 38. MDC Firewall Advanced Settings Page 84 Management and Diagnostic Console Enabling Security Features The Security pane allows you to configure the gateways firewall to provide additional security features. Following are descriptions of the features. Stealth Mode. Enabling Stealth Mode suppresses error responses (for example, TCP resets). Block Ping. Enabling Block Ping blocks ping responses. Strict UDP Session Control. Enabling Strict UDP Session Control prevents another source from piggybacking onto a UDP session. Controlling Inbound and Outbound Traffic If an Inbound box is checked, the firewall allows the corresponding protocol to pass through from the Internet to the network. If an Outbound box is checked, the firewall allows the traffic from the network to pass through the firewall to the Internet. You must click the Submit button for changes to take effect. Note: Allowing inbound traffic does not mean that the firewall automatically allows this type of traffic to pass through the firewall to the network. Even if a particular protocol/application type is allowed, the firewall still checks and blocks all unsolicited traffic from the Internet unless the firewall is configured to allow the traffic through using an application profile. Disabling Attack Detection By default, the 2Wire gateway firewall rules block the attack types listed in the Attack Detection pane. Some hosted applications require that the user open specific ports (for example, TCP or UDP) to allow outside users to access their network. The Attack Detection pane allows you to configure the gateways firewall rules to allow traffic through on the specified ports. To disable attack detection for a specific port, deselect the corresponding checkbox and click the Submit button. Enabling Full Logging To log all packets, check the Enable Full Logging checkbox. Note: When full logging is enabled, the gateway logs every packet. This will significantly reduce overall system performance because the log buffer capacity will be reached more quickly. 85 Management and Diagnostic Console Voice - Configure Server Page Note: This link is present only if the 2Wire gateway is VoIP-enabled. The Voice - Configure Server page allows you to set up your VoIP server, and is used primarily for test purposes. Figure 39.

Events generate an Informational (INF) or Warning (WRN) severity level. Informational indicates events that are informational only; Warning indicates an unexpected condition that does not affect the 2Wire gateways ability to operate (for example, a network problem or the 2Wire gateway is not configured properly). For events that involve the transfer of packets, the following additional information is displayed. Item src dst ipprot sport dport Description Source IP address Destination IP address Protocol number as indicated in the IP header field Source port (TCP and UDP) Destination port (TCP and UDP) Disposition of the event The action taken when the event occurs (for example, Unknown inbound session stopped) 94 Management and Diagnostic Console Troubleshooting - Network Tests Page The Troubleshooting Network Tests page provides the Ping, Traceroute, and DNS Query tools, which help diagnose problems with the 2Wire gateway or 2Wire gateway connections. Figure 42. MDC Troubleshooting Network Tests Page The Ping test allows you to ensure that the 2Wire gateway can send data packets to (ping) a remote host. The Traceroute test traces the number of times a data packet sent from the 2Wire gateway is routed before it reaches its destination. The DNS Query test finds the IP address of the domain name service. 95 Management and Diagnostic Console To perform a ping or traceroute test:
1. 2. 3. From the drop-down menu, select Ping or Traceroute. In the Host field, enter the URL of the host location to which you wish the 2Wire gateway to send the ping or traceroute. In the Test field, enter the number of times you want the ping to occur (the maximum is 25) or the number of hops you want traceroute to trace. 4. In the Packet Size field, enter the packet size you wish to send. The maximum packet size is 576. 5. Check the Enable network name resolution checkbox. This will ensure that the name of the host location is displayed along with the corresponding IP address. 6. Click the Start button.

These settings are typically provided by the service provider and/or backend management system. 104 Management and Diagnostic Console Advanced - Configure Services Page Note: To access this page, your organization must have the Remote Management feature enabled. If the feature is not enabled, an error message will display when you click the link to access this page. The Advanced Configure Services page allows you to enable the 2Wire gateway to operate in bridged mode, change the timeout settings for NAT, enable notification messages, enable the SIP ALG, and change the upstream maximum transmission rate. Figure 48. MDC Advanced Configure Services Page Routing By default, the 2Wire gateway is configured in routed mode. The Advanced Configure Services page allows you to configure the 2Wire gateway to operate in bridged mode. 105 Management and Diagnostic Console IMPORTANT: Bridged mode is intended for testing purposes only, as in WT-062 (ADSL), BER (Bit Rate Error), or industry standard performance tests. When routed mode is disabled, the 2Wire gateway can no longer be managed via CMS, and any DSL connection will require an external PPP connection (via software of third-party hardware). It is strongly recommended that you disable routed mode ONLY if you thoroughly understand the ramifications of doing so. To operate the gateway in bridged mode:
1. Deselect the Enable Routing checkbox. 2. Click the Submit button. Most gateway features are now disabled, including firewall and stateful packet inspection, DHCP, NAT, DNS, PPP, and remote management. The gateway no longer functions as a gateway and is, in effect, a multi-
protocol (Ethernet, wireless, and USB) bridge. Note: When routing is disabled the gateways local IP address is set to 172.16.0.1/16. Computers connected to the 2Wire gateway will retain the IP address assigned by the gateways DHCP server until a new IP address is obtained from an alternative DHCP server, or is manually assigned. To re-enable routed mode:
1. Configure the computers IP address to work on the same subnet as the gateway. a. From the Windows desktop or the Start menu, right-click the My Network Places icon, then left-click Properties. b. Right-click the icon that represents the network connection to the gateway, and left-click Properties. 106 c. Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), then click the Properties button. Management and Diagnostic Console d. In the General tab, click the Use the following IP address radio button. In the IP address field, enter an IP address between 172.16.1.1 to 172.16.1.32. In the Subnet mask field, enter 255.255.0.0. In the Default gateway and Preferred DNS server fields, enter 172.16.0.1. e. Click OK. f. If required, reboot the system for the changes to take effect. 2. Attach the computer to the Local Network port of the 2Wire gateway. 3. In the Web browser address bar, enter 172.16.0.1/management. 4. Click Configure Services. 107 Management and Diagnostic Console 5. Click the Enable Routing checkbox. 6. Click the Submit Settings button. The gateway PPP, routing, and TCP/IP functions are now re-enabled, and the Local Network LED will turn Green. The computer can now be reset to a DHCP-assigned IP address, or left to obtain it statically. Changing Timeout Parameters By default, TCP and UDP are configured to timeout in 1,440 and 10 minutes, respectively. You can change the parameters by entering different values in the TCP Timeout and UDP Timeout fields, and then clicking the Submit button. Enabling Broadband Status Notification Note: This field will display only if the CMS organization has the Broadband Status Notification feature enabled. To receive a notification message that the gateway has lost broadband connectivity and cannot access the Internet, check the Enable checkbox. Enabling Missing DSL Filter Notification Note: This field will display only if the CMS organization has the Missing DSL Filter Notification feature enabled. To receive a notification message that the gateway has detected a missing DSL filter, check the Enable checkbox. Enabling SIP Application Layer Gateway To enable the SIP ALG on the gateway firewall, check the Enable checkbox. Changing the Upstream MTU The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) is the largest size packet or frame, specified in octets (eight-byte bits), that can be sent from a computer to the network. The 2Wire gateways MTU varies, depending on the connection type used (for example, PPP or direct IP). To change the gateways upstream MTU:
1. In the Force Upstream MTU field, enter the value specified by the service provider. 2. Click the Submit button. 108 Management and Diagnostic Console Advanced - Static Routes Note: To access this page, your organization must have the Remote Management feature enabled. If the feature is not enabled, an error message will display when you click the link to access this page.

A device that transports data between a wireless network and a wired network. With the help of the system, a wireless base station is an example of an access point that acts between a wireless node and with other wired PCs and peripherals. D Default Gateway. A device that is placed between network segments (or subnets) to ensure that traffic is properly routed between different subnets. To communicate with a device on another network, users need to know the default gateways IP address. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). A TCP/IP protocol that allows servers to assign IP addresses dynamically to PCs and workstations. The PC or workstation borrows the IP address for a period of time, then the IP address returns to the DHCP server for reassignment. DMZ (Demilitarized Zone). A computer or small subnetwork that sits between a trusted internal network
(such as a LAN), and an untrusted external network (such as the Internet). Typically, the DMZ contains devices accessible to Internet traffic, such as Web (HTTP) servers, FTP servers, SMTP (e-mail) servers and DNS servers. DNS (Domain Name System). The DNS is the way that Internet domain names (such as www.2wire.com) are located and translated into IP addresses. DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer). A device found in telephone company central offices that takes a number of DSL subscriber lines and concentrates them onto a single ATM line. E Ethernet. A type of local area network that operates over twisted wire and cable at speeds of up to 10 Mbps. I ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol). ICMP supports packets containing error, control, and informational messages. For example, the PING command uses ICMP to test an Internet connection. Although ICMP is generally harmless, there are some message types that should be dropped. Redirect (5), Alternate Host Address (6), and Router Advertisement (9) can be used to redirect traffic from your site. Echo (8), Timestamp (13), and Address Mask Request (17) can be used to obtain information on whether the host is up, the local time, and the address mask used on your network, respectively. ICMP messages are also sometimes used as part of DOS attacks (such as flood ping or ping of death). Invalid TCP flags. Combination of TCP flags (such as SYN/FIN) that signal a malicious attempt to get past the firewall. IP (Internet Protocol). The standard signaling method used for all communication over the Internet. 120 Glossary IP Address. A numeric identifier for your computer. Just as the post office delivers mail to your home address, servers know to deliver data to your computer based on your IP address. IP addresses can be dynamic, meaning that your computer borrows the IP address for the necessary timeframe, or they can be fixed, meaning that the number is permanently assigned to your computer. L LAN (Local Area Network). A network connecting a number of computers to each other or to a central server so that the computers can share programs and files. M MAC (Media Access Control) Address. A hardware address that has been embedded into the network interface card (NIC) by its vendor to uniquely identify each node, or point of connection, of a network. Map to Host Port. When set (not left blank or set to 0), this value provides the mapping offset to the local computer. For example, if this value is set to 4000 and the range being opened is 100 to 108, the forwarded data to the first value in the range will be sent to 4000. Subsequent ports will be mapped accordingly; 101 will be sent to 4001, 102 will be sent to 4002, etc. MTU (maximum transmission unit). The largest size packet or frame, specified in octets (eight-bit bytes), that can be sent from a computer to the network. The Internet's TCP uses the MTU to determine the maximum size of each packet in any transmission. If the MTU is too large, the packet may need to be retransmitted if it encounters a router that can't handle that large a packet. Too small an MTU size means relatively more header overhead and more acknowledgements that have to be sent and handled. Most computer operating systems provide a default MTU value that is suitable for most users. In general, Internet users should follow the advice of their Internet service provider (ISP) about whether to change the default value and what to change it to. N NAT (Network Address Translation). Enables a LAN to use one set of IP addresses for internal traffic and a second set of IP addresses for external traffic. This feature is used by the system so an end user can have an internal computer network in their home, with all its computers using internal IP addresses, using only one routable IP address, which accesses the outside (Internet). P PAT (Port Address Translation). Allows hosts on a LAN to communicate with the rest of a network (such as the Internet) without revealing their own private IP address. All outbound packets have their IP address translated to the routers external IP address. Replies come back to the router, which then translates them back into the private IP address of the original host for final delivery. PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol). A protocol that allows a computer to access the Internet using a dial-up phone line and a high-speed modem. This can be accomplished over Ethernet (PPPoE), or over Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM; PPPoA). 121 Glossary PPPoA (Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM). A specification for connecting multiple computer users on an Ethernet LAN to a remote site through common customer premises equipment (such as a modem). PPPoA combines the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), commonly used in dialup connections, with the ATM
(Asynchronous Transfer Mode) protocol, which supports multiple users in a LAN. PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). A specification for connecting multiple computer users on an Ethernet LAN to a remote site through common customer premises equipment (such as a modem). PPPoE combines the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), commonly used in dialup connections, with the Ethernet protocol, which supports multiple users in a LAN. Protocol Timeout. The amount of time (in seconds) during which a connection in the specified range remains open when there is no data transfer. After a connection has been established on a given port, the sender and receiver usually determine when the session is finished and the connection is closed. However, if the connection is left open and data transfer stops, the system must eventually close the connection and reclaim the resources in order to protect your network. In some cases, the system might close the application during normal operation (for example, if there is a long pause between data transfer). If this is the case, lengthening the timeout may help. PVC (permanent virtual circuit). A virtual circuit that is permanently available. Used to establish connections between hosts that communicate frequently. R Router. The central switching device in a packet-switched computer network that directs and controls the flow of data through the network. S Subnet Mask. The IP addressing system allows subnetworks or interchanges to be created, and devices numbers or extensions to be established within these subnetworks. These numbers are created using a mathematical device called a subnet mask. A subnet mask, like the IP address, is a set of four numbers in dotted decimal notation. Subnet masks typically take three forms:
255.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 255.255.255.0 The number 255 masks out the corresponding number of the IP address, resulting in IP address numbers that are valid for the network. For example, an IP address of 123.45.67.89 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 results in a sub network number of 123.45.67.0 and a device number of 89. The subnet mask used for the network typically corresponds to the class of IP address assigned, as shown in the following table. IP Address Class Dotted-Decimal Notation Ranges Corresponding Subnet Mask Class A Class B Class C 1.xxx.xxx.xxx to 126.xxx.xxx.xxx 255.0.0.0 128.0.xxx.xxx to 191.255.xxx.xxx 255.255.0.0 192.0.0.xxx to 223.255.255.xxx 255.255.255.0 122 Glossary SYN Flood. A method that the user of a hostile client program can use to conduct a denial-of-service (DOS) attack on a computer server. The hostile client repeatedly sends SYN (synchronization) packets to every port on the server, using fake IP addresses. T TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol). A method of packet-switched data transmission used on the Internet. The protocol specifies the manner in which a signal is divided into parts, as well as the manner in which address information is added to each packet to ensure that it reaches its destination and can be reassembled into the original message. Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). See TCP/IP. U UDP (User Datagram Protocol). A TCP/IP protocol describing how data packets reach application programs within a destination computer. V VPI (Virtual Path Identifier). Identifier contained in the ATM cell header to designate the virtual path on the physical ATM link. VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier). Identifier contained in the ATM cell header to designate the virtual channel on the physical ATM link. W Wireless. Transmission of data over radio waves rather than wiring. Wireless channel. The 2Wire gateway supports up to 13 wireless channels (based on country restrictions). For example, the United States and Canada support channels 1 to 11; Europe and Australia support channels 1 to 13. In an 802.1b or 802.11g wireless network, data is transmitted at 2.5GHz. Wireless nodes communicate with each other using radio frequency signals in the band between 2.4GHz and 2.5GHz. Neighboring channels are 5 MHz apart; however, due to the spread spectrum effect of the signals, a node sending signals using a particular channel will use frequency spectrum 12.5HHz above and below the center channel frequency. As a result, two separate wireless networks using neighboring channels (for example, channels 1 and 2) in the same general vicinity will interfere with each other. Applying two channels that allow the maximum channel separation (such as channels 1 and 6, or channels 6 and 11) will provide a noticeable performance increase over networks with minimal channel separation. The radio frequency channels used in 802.11b/g networks are shown in the following table. Channel Channel 1 Channel 2 Range 2399.5 MHz - 2424.5 MHz 2404.5 MHz - 2429.5 MHz 123 Glossary Channel Channel 3 Channel 4 Channel 5 Channel 6 Channel 7 Channel 8 Channel 9 Channel 10 Channel 11 Channel 12 Channel 13 Range 2409.5 MHz - 2434.5 MHz 2414.5 MHz - 2439.5 MHz 2419.5 MHz - 2444.5 MHz 2424.5 MHz - 2449.5 MHz 2429.5 MHz - 2454.5 MHz 2434.5 MHz - 2459.5 MHz 2439.5 MHz - 2464.5 MHz 2444.5 MHz - 2469.5 MHz 2449.5 MHz - 2474.5 MHz 2454.5 MHz - 2479.5 MHz 2459.5 MHz - 2484.5 MHz The preferred channel separation between the channels in neighboring wireless networks is 25 MHz (5 channels). This means that you can apply up to three different channels within your wireless network. There are only 11 usable wireless channels in the United States. It is recommended that you start using channel 1 and expand to channel 6 (and 11 when necessary), as these three channels do not overlap. 124 Regulatory Information Declaration of Conformity Trade Name: 2Wire Responsible Party: 2Wire, Inc.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment. Only peripherals (computer input/output devices, terminals, printers, and so forth) that comply with FCC Class B limits may be attached to this computer product. Operation with noncompliant peripherals is likely to result in interference to radio and television reception. All cables used to connect peripherals must be shielded and grounded. Operation with cables, connected to peripherals that are not shielded and grounded may result in interference to radio and television reception. WARNING: While this device is in operation, a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) must be maintained between the radiating antenna inside the ERU and the bodies of all persons exposed to the transmitter in order to meet the FCC RF exposure guidelines. Making changes to the antenna or the device is not permitted. Doing so may result in the installed system exceeding RF exposure requirements. This device must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or radio transmitter. Installers and end users must follow the installation instructions provided in this guide. FCC Part 68 This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC equivalence number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company. The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five. To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area. If the terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary. The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operations of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make the necessary modifications in order to maintain uninterrupted service. If trouble is experienced with this equipment, please contact the store, reseller, or agent from whom the product was purchased. Repair of this equipment should be made only by the 2Wire Service Center or a 2Wire authorized agent. 125
