Chapter 1: Introduction Introduction to your Router Thank you for purchasing BiP AC 7800 Router . Y our new router is an all-in-one unit that combines an ADSL modem, ADSL2/2+ router and Ethernet network switch to provide everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over an ADSL broadband connection.
Features Express Internet Access The router complies with ADSL worldwide standards. It supports downstream rate up to 12/24 Mbps with ADSL2/2+, 8Mbps with ADSL. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL services but also broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio much easier and faster than ever .
Domain Name System (DNS) Relay It provides an easy way to map the domain name (a friendly name for users such as www .yahoo. com) and IP address. When a local machine sets its DNS server with this router’s IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC to this router will be forwarded to the real DNS in the outside network.

49 ADSL Mode ADSL Mode: There are 2 modes “Annex L” and ”Annex M” that user can select for this connection. Modulator: There are 5 modes “ADSL2”, ”ADSL2+”, “G.Lite:”, “T1.413” and “G.DMT” that user can select for this connection.
50 System There are ve items within the System section: Time Zone, Firmware Upgrade, Backup/ Restore, Restart and User Management. T ime Zone The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network T ime Protocol (SNTP) to get the most current time from an SNTP server outside your network.
51 Backup / Restore These functions allow you to save a backup of the current conguration of your router to a dened location on your PC, or to restore a previously saved conguration. This is useful if you wish to experiment with different settings, knowing that you have a backup in hand in case any mistakes occur .
52 Restart There are 2 options for you to choose from before restarting the your 7800 device. Y ou can either choose to restart your device to restore it to the Factory Default Settings or to restart the device with your current settings applied.
53 Firewall Packet Filter Packet ltering enables you to congure your router to block specied internal/external users (IP address) from Internet access, or you can disable specic service requests (Port number) to / from the Internet.
54 MAC Filter A MAC (Media Access Control) address is the unique network hardware identier for each PC on your network’s interface (i.e. its Network Interface Card or Ethernet card). Using your router’s MAC Address Filter function, you can congure the network to block specic machines from accessing your LAN.
55 V irtual Server Virtual Server allows you to direct incoming trafc from W AN side (identied by Protocol and External port) to the Internal server with private IP address on the LAN side. The Internal port is required only if the external port needs to be converted to a different port number used by the server on the LAN side.
56 Port Mapping Application: Select the service you wish to congure. Protocol: A protocol is automatically applied when an Application is selected from the listbox or you may select a protocol type which you want. External Port & Internal Port: Enter the public port number & range you wish to congure.
57 DMZ The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets that do not use a port number which is already used by any other Virtual Server entries will rst be checked by the Firewall and NA T algorithms before it is passed to the DMZ host.
58 Advanced Static Route Enter the destination network address, subnet mask, gateway AND/OR the available W AN interface, then click “Add” to add a new entry to the routing table.
59 VLAN VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a group of devices on different physical LAN segments that can communicate with each other as if they were all on the same physical LAN segment.
60 Device Management The Device Management advanced conguration settings allow you to control your router ’s security options and device monitoring features.
