This chapter will describe the Quick Setup Section accessible from the Home Page of the DISCUS™ Multiplay Wireless VoIP AG upon user authentication to the Router.
The Quick Setup enables speedy and accurate configuration of your Internet connection and other important parameters.
After the setup described in this chapter, you can immediately start using your Router to:
1. Share a broadband connection among multiple users (HTTP, FTP, Telnet, NetMeeting) and between all of the computers connected to your home network.
2. Build a home network by connecting additional PCs and network devices to the gateway.
3. Share resources (file servers, printers, etc.) between computers in the home network using their names; auto-learning DNS enables DIS- CUS™ Multiplay Wireless VoIP AG to automatically detect the net- work identification names of the LAN PCs, enabling mutual
communication using names, not IP addresses.
4. Control network parameters, including DHCP, DNS and WAN settings.
5. View network status, traffic statistics, system log and more.
