RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N Modem Router DGND3300 User Manual Table 1-1. Basic Settings screen fields (continued) Settings Description NAT (Net Address Translation) This field appears only if your ISP does not require a login. Router MAC Address NAT automatically assigns private IP addresses (10.1.1.x) to LAN-connected devices. • Enable. Usually NAT is enabled. • Disable. This disables NAT, but leaves the firewall active. Disable NAT only if you are sure that you do not require it. When NAT is disabled, only standard routing is performed by this router. Classical routing lets you directly manage the IP addresses that the modem router uses. Classical routing should be selected only by experienced usersa • Disable firewall. This disables the firewall in addition to disabling NAT. With the firewall disabled, the protections usually provided to your network are disabled. Your computer's local address is its unique address on your network. This is also referred to as the computer's MAC (Media Access Control) address. • Use Default MAC Address. This is the usual setting. • Use Computer MAC address. If your ISP requires MAC authentication, you can use this setting to disguise the modem router's MAC address with the computer's own MAC address. • Use This MAC Address. If your ISP requires MAC authentication, you can manually type the MAC address for a different computer. The format for the MAC address is XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX. a. Disabling NAT reboots the modem router and resets its configuration settings to the factory defaults. Disable NAT only if you plan to install the modem router in a setting where you will be manually administering the IP address space on the LAN side of the router.
