1.0 INTRODUCTION Thanks for purchasing the XRouter Pro MIH-130A Internet Sharing Hub. The XRouter Pro functions as an easy-to-use communication device which allows you to connect a local area network (LAN) to the Internet afford- ably .
1.4 4-Port Switched Ethernet Hub Inside In addition to providing Internet sharing capability , the XRouter Pro also functions as an Switched Ethernet Hub, which offers four 10/100 Mbps switched RJ-45 ports that allow you to connect a series of computers to form a small LAN.
2.0 BEFORE YOU ST ART 2.1 Package Overview Prior to setting up your XRouter Pro, make sure your XRouter Pro pack- age includes the following items: • an XRouter Pro • a power adapter • manual • a Category-5 UTP cable with RJ-45 connectors 2.
3.0 EASY INST ALLA TION 3.1 Hardware Installation Prior to connecting the XRouter Pro to LAN, please be certain that your cable or DSL service is active and operating correctly . If you are experi- encing difficulties with the cable or DSL service, please contact the service provider before continuing the installation process.
3.1.2 Connecting Computers to the XRouter Pro When you complete connecting the XRouter Pro to your DSL or cable modem, now you may connect the Macintosh or PC computers in your local area network to the XRouter Pro.
T o connect an existing LAN to the XRouter Pro: As an alternative to connecting computers directly into the XRouter Pro’s LAN ports, you can also connect a pre-existing network of the computer to the XRouter Pro by uplinking your network’s central LAN hub to the XRouter Pro’s uplink port.
3.1.3 Connecting the Power Supply T o provide your XRouter Pro with power: 1. Plug the power adapter of the XRouter Pro into an AC power out- let. 2. Plug the other end of the power adapter cable into the power receptacle on the rear panel of the unit.

d. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installa- tion process. Figure 3.3-2 5. After double-clicking the installed TCP/IP protocol, the TCP/IP properties window appears. T o automatically assign computer ’s TCP/IP , the XRouter Pro’s DHCP server must perform the follow- ing functions: a.
3.3.1 Assigning TCP/IP V alues Manually If you already have a DHCP server on the network, or if you prefer not to use the XRouter Pro’s DHCP server to assign TCP/IP values automatical- ly , you can input these values manually . T o manage computer ’s address manually , perform the following functions: (See Figure 3.
Chapter 3 - EASY INST ALLA TION 3.4 Mac OS TCP/IP Configuration 1. Open the TCP/IP control panel . 2. In the Connect via menu select the Ethernet interface installed on your computer .
T o manage computer ’s address manually ,perform the following functions: 1. In the Connect via menu select the Ethernet interface installed in your computer . 2. In the Configure menu select Manually . (See Figure 3.4-2) a). In the IP Address field , enter “192.
3.4.2 Setting Up the XRouter Pro Through a Web Browser Now that you have completed the configuration of TCP/IP addresses of the client and managing computers, you may begin configuring the XRouter Pro’s Internet settings.
2. T ype the XRouter Pro's default IP address ( 192.168.1.1 ) in the URL field. This is the area where you would normally enter a W eb site address such as “ www .macsense.com” . 3. Press Enter . The Username and Password window will then appear .
5. The OnePage Setup window now appears. Note that this page is divided into two basic sections: Private IP Address, and Public IP Address. Figure 3.4-5 (See Figure 3.4-5) Host Name : This is an optional section. Some ISPs require a host name in order to be recognized by their systems.
4. In the Default Gateway IP Address field, enter the information pro- vided by your ISP . Note that it may refer to “Gateway / Router IP Address.” Also note that this number is not the same as the IP Address value that you have entered in step 2.
4.0 ADV ANCED CONFIGURA TION Please refer to the previous chapter on how to enter the Web Management page of the XRouter Pro. The Advanced Menu contains mini sub-menus including DHCP Settings, Access Control, Virtual Server , Device Admin, Status Monitor , DMZ Host, RIP , Static Routing and PPPoE.
4.2.1 URL Access Setting The URL Access Setting page in the XRouter Pro blocks/allows specific web sites on the LAN when enables. For example, if you choose to stop users on the LAN from accessing the web site “ www .yahoo.com ”, you would use the Access Control page to block URL access to this site.
4.2.2 IP Access Setting The IP Access Setting page in the XRouter Pro can block a user defined IP range from accessing specified ports. This feature is useful when block- ing Internet services that you do not desire on your network. (See Figure 4.2-2) Figure 4.
NOTE: Complete Internet access can be blocked in an IP Range by entering “1” in the first Blocked Port No. field. Blocked Port Range : In this section, you will need to enter the range of ports that need to be blocked. NOTE: The Blocked Port No. and Blocked Port Range section can be operat- ed simultaneously .
For example, if you set up the TCP port 80 (HTTP: Hypertext T ransfer Protocol) to be redirected to the IP address"192.168.1.2" on the V irtual Server setting , the request from the external Internet user via HTTP proto- col (i.
4.4 Device Administration This page displays information on the firmware version of the XRouter Pro. Y ou can also change the password, reset the device, disable, or enable external administrative access to the web based configuration of the XRouter Pro, block W AN port scanning and W AN ping responses.
4.5 Status Monitor The status monitor provides information on the working status of the XRouter Pro. It contains the connection information for the W AN side of the router . The term W AN (Wide Area Network) refers to the connection going to the ISP .
Statistics : This allows you to view the general traf fic on the route, and to display the IP address as well as the number of packets translated for each client. For a Static or Dynamic IP Address without PPPoE: (See FIgure 4.5-2) Figure 4.5-2 DHCP Release : This allows you to release the IP address given by your ISP .
4.6 Special APP The Special App is an advanced feature but is not typically required to use the XRouter Pro. This feature allows you to specify a range for incoming ports to be open to computers on the network upon an outgoing trigger port for special application that need two-way communication.
How to Use the Special App Feature T o sue this feature, you must know what the outgoing trigger ports are for the given application that needs two-way communications. Y ou must also know the incoming ports that are required fo rhte data that needs to come back into the network.
4.8 RIP (Routing Information Protocol) This feature allows your XRouter Pro to send and receive RIP packets to/from other routers on the Internet. RIP is a protocol being used by some routers on the Internet. By sending and receiving RIP packets, your XRouter Pro will learn the routes used by neighboring routers.
4.9 Static Routing The Static routing feature of the XRouter Pro allows the LAN to communi- cate with another router on the LAN and with their respective LAN seg- ment. By setting up static routes, computers on the XRouter Pro’s immedi- ate LAN may utilize another router ’ s LAN and XRouter Pro’s LAN simulta- neously .
In the example above, PC-1 would have access to LAN#1, LAN#2 and the Internet. Where as, PC-2 would have access to LAN#1 and LAN#2, but not to Internet. In order for PC-2 to have Internet access, a second XRouter Pro or another similarly configurable router would be needed con- figuration.
4.10 PPPoE Settings Some ISPs require the use of PPPoE for the network connection. When PPPoE is in use, input the username and password provided by your ISP . (See Figure 4.10-1) Figure 4.10-1 Username : Enter the username assigned by your ISP . Password : Enter the password assigned by your ISP .
