EtherFast Cable/DSL Router with 4-Port Switch
Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome
Thank you for choosing the EtherFast Cable/DSL Router with 4-Port Switch. This Router will allow your computers
to share a high-speed Internet connection as well as resources, including files and printers.
How does the Router do all of this? By connecting your computers and peripherals to the Router and connecting
the Router to your cable or DSL modem, then the Router can direct and control communications for your network.
But what does all of this mean?
Networks are useful tools for sharing Internet access and computer resources. Multiple computers can share
Internet access, so you don’t need more than one high-speed Internet connection. You can access one printer
from different computers and access data located on another computer’s hard drive. Networks are even used for
playing multiplayer video games. So, networks not only are useful in homes and offices, but also can be fun.
PCs on a wired network create a LAN, or Local Area Network. They are connected with Ethernet cables, which is
why the network is called “wired”.
To create your network, install and set up the Router. To guide you through the process, Linksys strongly
recommends that you run the Setup Wizard on the Setup CD-ROM. If you prefer to manually set up the Router, use
the instructions in the Quick Installation or this User Guide to help you. These instructions should be all you need
to get the most out of the Router.
ethernet: an IEEE standard network protocol
that specifies how data is placed on and
retrieved from a common transmission
medium
lan (local area network): the computers and
networking products that make up the network
in your home or office

An Introduction to Local Area Networks

Chapter 2: Networking Basics
An Introduction to Local Area Networks
Simply put, a router is a network device that connects two networks together.
The Router connects your local area network (LAN), or the group of PCs in your home or office, to the Internet. The
Router processes and regulates the data that travels between these two networks.
The Router’s Network Address Translation (NAT) technology protects your network of PCs so users on the Internet
cannot “see” your PCs. This is how your LAN remains private. The Router protects your network by inspecting the
first packet coming in through the Internet port before delivery to the final destination on one of the Ethernet
ports. The Router inspects Internet port services like the web server, ftp server, or other Internet applications,
and, if allowed, it will forward the packet to the appropriate PC on the LAN side.
The Use of IP Addresses
IP stands for Internet Protocol. Every device in an IP-based network, including PCs, print servers, and routers,
requires an IP address to identify its location, or address, on the network. This applies to both the Internet and
LAN connections.
There are two ways of assigning IP addresses to your network devices.
A static IP address is a fixed IP address that you assign manually to a PC or other device on the network. Since a
static IP address remains valid until you disable it, static IP addressing ensures that the device assigned it will
always have that same IP address until you change it. Static IP addresses are commonly used with network
devices such as server PCs or print servers.
If you use the Router to share your cable or DSL Internet connection, contact your ISP to find out if they have
assigned a static IP address to your account. If so, you will need that static IP address when configuring the
Router. You can get the information from your ISP.
A dynamic IP address is automatically assigned to a device on the network. These IP addresses are called
dynamic because they are only temporarily assigned to the PC or other device. After a certain time period, they
expire and may change. If a PC logs onto the network (or the Internet) and its dynamic IP address has expired, the
DHCP server will assign it a new dynamic IP address.
dynamic ip address: a temporary IP
address assigned by a DHCP server
static ip address: a fixed address
assigned to a computer or device that
is connected to a network
nat (network address translation): NAT
technology translates IP addresses of a
local area network to a different IP
address for the Internet.
dhcp (dynamic host configuration
protocol): a protocol that lets one
device on a local network, known as a
DHCP server, assign temporary IP
addresses to the other network
devices, typically computers
