That is, the route is predefined and is not discovered by the Routing Information Protocol (RIP), as in dynamic routing. Static routing allows you to assign a gateway to an IP address or network. If there are routers on your internal network that do not function with RIP 1 or 2, you can set up a static route to those routers. The advantage to using static routing is that network traffic is reduced; thus, static routing is beneficial for slow Internet connections. Routing using static routes is practical for small networks. For larger networks, the router needs to dynamically keep track of changes in the physical wiring of the network, and the use of dynamic routing (RIP) is recommended. NOTICE: The Static Routing settings are intended for advanced network administrators only. Do not change these settings unless you are certain of the correct values. You may not be able to access the configuration tool if invalid information is entered. To use static routing, manually add the Destination IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway IP Address for each route you are adding to the Static Routing Table, and click ADD. If you are routing to an entire network, the last number in the destination IP address should be a zero (0); for example, 192.168.0.0. NOTE: In static routing, the Wireless Broadband Router does NOT dynamically discover routing information and does NOT use RIP. The Wireless Broadband Router currently does NOT support RIP. Use the checkboxes beside each route and the DELETE button to remove static routes from the Static Routing Table. Click the SUBMIT button to store the changes. Back to Top Administration Settings Password Settings The Wireless Broadband Router uses a password to authenticate the user before allowing changes to be made to any network settings. If you would like to change the current password, check the Change Your Password checkbox and enter the new password in both New Password and Retype Password fields. Write down the password and keep it in a secure location for future reference. System Administration HTTP Port No. Do not change the HTTP Port value unless you have reason to do so. Typically, web servers listen for incoming web requests on port 80.

Static Routing
Static routes are manually configured routes to remote networks. That is, the route is predefined and is not discovered by the
Routing Information Protocol
(RIP), as in dynamic routing. Static routing allows you to assign a gateway to an IP address or
network. If there are routers on your internal network that do not function with RIP 1 or 2, you can set up a static route to those
routers.
The advantage to using static routing is that network traffic is reduced; thus, static routing is beneficial for slow Internet
connections. Routing using static routes is practical for small networks. For larger networks, the router needs to dynamically
keep track of changes in the physical wiring of the network, and the use of dynamic routing (RIP) is recommended.
NOTICE: The Static Routing settings are intended for advanced network administrators only. Do not change
these settings unless you are certain of the correct values. You may not be able to access the configuration
tool if invalid information is entered.
To use static routing, manually add the Destination IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway IP Address for each route you are
adding to the Static Routing Table, and click
ADD
. If you are routing to an entire network, the last number in the destination IP
address should be a zero (0); for example, 192.168.0.0.
NOTE: In static routing, the Wireless Broadband Router does
NOT
dynamically discover routing information and does
