IAD-200 / IAD-200W Features
The IAD-200 / IAD-200W incorporates many advanced features, carefully designed to provide
sophisticated functions while being easy to use.
Internet Access Features
•
Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN or WLAN can access the Internet
through the IAD-200 / IAD-200W, using only a single external IP Address. The local (in-
valid) IP Addresses are hidden from external sources. This process is called NAT
(Network Address Translation).
•
•
Built-in ADSL Modem. The IAD-200 / IAD-200W has a built-in ADSL modem,
supporting all common ADSL connections.
IPoA, PPPoE, PPPoA, Direct Connection Support. The IAD-200 / IAD-200W
supports all common connection methods.

•
•
Auto-detection of Internet Connection Method. In must situations, the IAD-200 /
IAD-200W can test your ADSL and Internet connection to determine the connection
method used by your ISP.
Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. On the Internet (WAN port) connection, the IAD-200 /
IAD-200W supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Address is allocated on connection)
and Fixed IP Address.
Advanced Internet Functions
•
Application Level Gateways (ALGs). Applications which use non-standard connec-
tions or port numbers are normally blocked by the Firewall. The ability to define and
allow such applications is provided, to enable such applications to be used normally.
•
•
•
Special Applications. This feature, also called Port Triggering, allows you to use
Internet applications which normally do not function when used behind a firewall.
Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your
LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
Dynamic DNS Support. DDNS, when used with the Virtual Servers feature, allows
users to connect to Servers on your LAN using a Domain Name, even if you have a dy-
namic IP address which changes every time you connect.
•
•
URL Filter. Use the URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN users.
Firewall. As well as the built-in firewall to protect your LAN, you can define Firewall
Rules to determine which incoming and outgoing traffic should be permitted.
•
•
•
Scheduling. Both the URL Filter and Firewall rules can be scheduled to operate only at
certain times. This provides great flexibility in controlling Internet -bound traffic.
Logs. Define what data is recorded in the Logs, and optionally send log data to a Syslog
Server. Log data can also be E-mailed to you.
VPN Pass through Support. PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking) software
using PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec are transparently supported - no configuration is required.
VoIP Features
•
•
•
•
SIP Standard Compatible. The IAD-200 / IAD-200W complies with the SIP standard
for VoIP.
Advanced Call features. Caller ID, Caller name, Call waiting, three-way conference
call, DTMF relay, Voice active detection, Echo canceller.
FAX Support. Both the T.38 and G.711 Fax standards are supported, allowing both
sending and receiving faxes via the Wireless VoIP Gateway.
Life line (PSTN fallback) Support. The PSTN (analogue phone) port is automatically
used when the Internet connection is not operational or there is a power failure.
Wireless Features (IAD-200W only)
•
Standards Compliant. The IAD-200W complies with the IEEE802.11g (DSSS) speci-
fications for Wireless LANs.
•
Supports both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless Stations. The 802.11g standard
provides for backward compatibility with the 802.11b standard, so both 802.11b and
802.11g Wireless stations can be used simultaneously.
•
Speeds up and exceeding 54Mbps. All speeds up to the 802.11g maximum of 54Mbps
are supported. Also, the IAD-200W support TI's proprietary "g-Plus" solution, which al-
lows even faster speeds between compatible wireless devices.

•
•
•
•
WEP support. Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key sizes of
64 Bit and 128 Bit are supported. WEP encrypts any data before transmission, providing
protection against snoopers.
WPA-PSK support. Like WEP, WPA-PSK encrypts any data before transmission,
providing protection against snoopers. The WPA-PSK is a later standard than WEP, and
provides both easier configuration and greater security than WEP.
Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can check the
MAC address (hardware address) of Wireless stations to ensure that only trusted Wireless
Stations can access your LAN.
Simple Configuration. If the default settings are unsuitable, they can be changed
quickly and easily.
LAN Features
•
Ethernet Port. The IAD-200 / IAD-200W incorporates a 10/100BaseT port for connec-
tion to your existing LAN.
•
DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dynamic IP
address to PCs and other devices upon request. The IAD-200 / IAD-200W can act as a
DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.
Configuration & Management
•
Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN for configu-
ration.
•
Configuration File Upload/Download. Save (download) the configuration data from
the IAD-200 / IAD-200W to your PC, and restore (upload) a previously-saved configura-
tion file to the device.
•
•
Remote Management. The IAD-200 / IAD-200W can be managed from any PC on
your LAN or Wireless LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (optionally)
be configured via the Internet.
Network Diagnostics. You can use the IAD-200 / IAD-200W to perform a Ping or
DNS lookup.
Security Features
•
Password - protected Configuration. Password protection is provided to prevent
unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
•
Wireless LAN Security. WPA-PSK, WEP, and Wireless access control by MAC
address are all supported. The MAC-level access control feature can be used to prevent
unknown wireless stations from accessing your LAN.
•
NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation) tech-
nology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and
even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network,
only a single device - the IAD-200 / IAD-200W.
•
•
Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server requests are
filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from external sources.
Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood your
Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so much band-
width and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable. The IAD-200 /
IAD-200W incorporates protection against DoS attacks.

Preparation
Before attempting to configure the IAD-200 / IAD-200W, please ensure that:
•
Your PC can establish a physical connection to the IAD-200 / IAD-200W. The PC and the
device must be directly connected (using the Hub ports on the IAD-200 / IAD-200W) or
on the same LAN segment.
•
•
The device must be installed and powered ON.
If the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's default IP Address (192.168.0.1) is already used by another
device, the other device must be turned OFF until the device is allocated a new IP Address
during configuration.
Using UPnP
If your Windows system supports UPnP, an icon for the IAD-200 / IAD-200W will appear in
the system tray, notifying you that a new network device has been found, and offering to create
a new desktop shortcut to the newly-discovered device.
•
Unless you intend to change the IP Address of the IAD-200 / IAD-200W, you can accept
the desktop shortcut.
•
Whether you accept the desktop shortcut or not, you can always find UPnP devices in My
Network Places (previously called Network Neighborhood).
Double - click the icon for the IAD-200 / IAD-200W (either on the Desktop, or in My Network
Places) to start the configuration. Refer to the following section Setup Wizard for details of the
initial configuration process.
Using your Web Browser

If you cannot connect
If the IAD-200 / IAD-200W does not respond, check the following:
•
The IAD-200 / IAD-200W is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it
is powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" command:
•
•
Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.
Enter the command:
ping 192.168.0.1
If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or your
PC's IP address is not compatible with the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's IP Ad-
dress. (See next item.)
•
If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the range
192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 to be compatible with the IAD-200 / IAD-
200W's default IP Address of 192.168.0.1. Also, the Network Mask must be set
to 255.255.255.0. See Chapter 4 - PC Configuration for details on checking
your PC's TCP/IP settings.
•
•
Ensure that your PC and the IAD-200 / IAD-200W are on the same network
segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
Ensure you are using the wired LAN interface. The Wireless interface can only
be used if its configuration matches your PC's wireless settings.

Data - LAN Screen
TCP/IP
IP address for the IAD-200 / IAD-200W, as seen from the local LAN.
Use the default value unless the address is already in use or your LAN
is using a different IP address range. In the latter case, enter an unused
IP Address from within the range used by your LAN.
IP Address
The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C")
networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN
segment to which the IAD-200 / IAD-200W is attached (the same
value as the PCs on that LAN segment).
Subnet Mask
DHCP Server
•
If Enabled, the IAD-200 / IAD-200W will allocate IP Addresses
to PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN when they start up. The de-
fault (and recommended) value is Enabled.
•
If you are already using a DHCP Server, this setting must be
Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be re-configured to
treat the IAD-200 / IAD-200W as the default Gateway. See the
following section for further details.
•
The Start IP Address and Finish IP Address fields set the values
used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Addresses to DHCP
clients. This range also determines the number of DHCP clients
supported.
See the following section for further details on using DHCP.
DHCP
What DHCP Does
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server allocates a valid IP address to a
DHCP Client (PC or device) upon request.
•
The client request is made when the client device starts up (boots).
15
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
•
The DHCP Server provides the Gateway and DNS addresses to the client, as well as
allocating an IP Address.
•
•
The IAD-200 / IAD-200W can act as a DHCP server.
Windows 95/98/ME and other non-Server versions of Windows will act as a DHCP client.
This is the default Windows setting for the TCP/IP network protocol. However, Windows
uses the term Obtain an IP Address automatically instead of "DHCP Client".
•
You must NOT have two (2) or more DHCP Servers on the same LAN segment. (If your
LAN does not have other Routers, this means there must only be one (1) DHCP Server on
your LAN.)
Using the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's DHCP Server
This is the default setting. The DHCP Server settings are on the LAN screen. On this screen,
you can:
•
•
Enable or Disable the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's DHCP Server function.
Set the range of IP Addresses allocated to PCs by the DHCP Server function.
You can assign Fixed IP Addresses to some devices while using
DHCP, provided that the Fixed IP Addresses are NOT within
the range used by the DHCP Server.
Using another DHCP Server
You can only use one (1) DHCP Server per LAN segment. If you wish to use another DHCP
Server, rather than the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's, the following procedure is required.
•
Disable the DHCP Server feature in the IAD-200 / IAD-200W. This setting is on the LAN
screen.
•
Configure the DHCP Server to provide the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's IP Address as the
Default Gateway.
To Configure your PCs to use DHCP
This is the default setting for TCP/IP for all non-Server versions of Windows.
See Chapter 4 - PC Configuration for the procedure to check these settings.

WEP Data
Encryption
•
64 Bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 64 Bit En-
cryption, the key size is 10 chars in HEX (0~9 and A~F).
•
128 Bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 128 Bit
Encryption, the key size is 26 chars in HEX (0~9 and A~F).
Normally, this should be left at the default value of "Automatic". If

WPA-PSK
Like WEP, data is encrypted before transmission. WPA is more
secure than WEP, and should be used if possible. WPA-PSK is the
version of WPA, which does NOT require a Radius Server on your
LAN.
Enter the PSK (network key). Data is encrypted using a key derived
from the network key. Other Wireless Stations must use the same
network key. The PSK must be from 8 to 63 characters in length.
PSK
The WPA-PSK standard allows different encryption methods to be
used. Select the desired option. Wireless Stations must use the same
encryption method.

This Chapter details the PC Configuration required on the local ("Internal")
LAN.
Overview
For each PC, the following may need to be configured:
•
•
•
TCP/IP network settings
Internet Access configuration
Wireless configuration
Windows Clients
This section describes how to configure Windows clients for Internet access via the IAD-200 /
IAD-200W.
The first step is to check the PC's TCP/IP settings.
The IAD-200 / IAD-200W uses the TCP/IP network protocol for all functions, so it is essential
that the TCP/IP protocol be installed and configured on each PC.
TCP/IP Settings - Overview
If using the default IAD-200 / IAD-200W settings, and the default Windows
TCP/IP settings, no changes need to be made.
•
•
By default, the IAD-200 / IAD-200W will act as a DHCP Server, automatically providing
a suitable IP Address (and related information) to each PC when the PC boots.
For all non-Server versions of Windows, the default TCP/IP setting is to act as a DHCP
client.
If using a Fixed (specified) IP address, the following changes are required:
•
•
The Gateway must be set to the IP address of the Wireless VoIP ADSL Router.
The DNS should be set to the address provided by your ISP.
If your LAN has a Router, the LAN Administrator must re-
configure the Router itself. Refer to Chapter 6 - Advanced
Administration for details.

DMZ
This feature, if enabled, allows the DMZ computer on your LAN to be exposed to all users on
the Internet.
•
•
•
This allows almost any application to be used on the "DMZ PC".
The "DMZ PC" will receive all "Unknown" connections and data.
If the DMZ feature is enabled, you must select the PC to be used as the "DMZ PC".
The "DMZ PC" is effectively outside the Firewall, making it
more vulnerable to attacks. For this reason, you should only
enable the DMZ feature when required.
Special Applications
If you use Internet applications which use non-standard connections or port numbers, you may
find that they do not function correctly because they are blocked by the IAD-200 / IAD-
200W's firewall. In this case, you can define the application as a "Special Application".
The Special Applications screen can be reached by clicking the Special Applications button on
the Internet screen.
You can then define your Special Applications. You will need detailed information about the
application; this is normally available from the supplier of the application.
Also, note that the terms "Incoming" and "Outgoing" on this screen refer to traffic from the
client (PC) viewpoint

from the special application or service. (Note: Some applications use
different protocols for outgoing and incoming data).
Incoming
Ports
•
Start - Enter the beginning of the range of port numbers used by the
application server, for data you receive. If the application uses a single
port number, enter it in both the "Start" and "Finish" fields.

tion server, for data you receive.
Type - Select the protocol (TCP or UDP) used when you send data to
the remote system or service.
Outgoing
Ports
Start - Enter the beginning of the range of port numbers used by the
application server, for data you send to it. If the application uses a sin-
gle port number, enter it in both the "Start" and "Finish" fields.
•
Finish - Enter the end of the range of port numbers used by the applica-
tion server, for data you send to it. If the application uses a single port
number, enter it in both the "Start" and "Finish" fields.
Using a Special Application
•
•
Configure the Special Applications screen as required.
On your PC, use the application normally. Remember that only one (1) PC can use each
Special application at any time. Also, when 1 PC is finished using a particular Special Ap-
plication, there may need to be a "Time-out" before another PC can use the same Special
Application. The "Time-out" period may be up to 3 minutes.
URL Filter
If you want to limit access to certain sites on the Internet, you can use this feature. The URL
filter will check each Web site access. If the address, or part of the address, is included in the
block site list, access will be denied.
On the Advanced Internet screen, select the desired setting:
•
•
•
Disable - disable this feature.
Block By Schedule - block according to the settings on the Schedule page.
Block Always - allow blocking all of the time, independent of the Schedule page.
Click the Configure URL Filter button to open the URL Filter screen, allowing you to create
or modify the filter strings which determine which sites will be blocked.
The URL Filter screen is displayed when the Configure URL Filter button on the Advanced
Internet screen is clicked.

Dynamic DNS (Domain Name Server)
This free service is very useful when combined with the Virtual Server feature. It allows
Internet users to connect to your Virtual Servers using a URL, rather than an IP Address.
This also solves the problem of having a dynamic IP address. With a dynamic IP address, your
IP address may change whenever you connect, which makes it difficult to connect to you.
DDNS Services work as follows:
1. You must register for the service at one of the listed DDNS Service providers.
2. After registration, use the Service provider's normal procedure to obtain your desired
Domain name.
3. Enter your DDNS data on the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's DDNS screen, and enable the
DDNS feature.
4. The IAD-200 / IAD-200W will then automatically ensure that your current IP Address is
recorded at the DDNS service provider's Domain Name Server.
5. From the Internet, users will be able to connect to your Virtual Servers (or DMZ PC)
using your Domain name, as shown on this screen.
Dynamic DNS Screen
Select Advanced on the main menu, then Dynamic DNS, to see a screen like the following:

Firewall Rules
The Firewall Rules screen allows you to define "Firewall Rules" which can allow or prevent
certain traffic. "Traffic" means incoming connection attempts, not packets.
By default:
•
•
All Outgoing traffic is permitted.
All Incoming traffic is denied.
Because of this default behavior, any Outgoing rules will generally Block traffic, and Incom-
ing rules will generally Allow traffic.

Virtual Servers
This feature, sometimes called Port Forwarding, allows you to make Servers on your LAN
accessible to Internet users. Normally, Internet users would not be able to access a server on
your LAN because:
•
•
Your Server does not have a valid external IP Address.
Attempts to connect to devices on your LAN are blocked by the firewall in this device.
The "Virtual Server" feature solves these problems and allows Internet users to connect to your
servers, as illustrated below.
Figure 51: Virtual Servers
IP Address seen by Internet Users
Note that, in this illustration, both Internet users are connecting to the same IP Address, but
using different protocols.
To Internet users, all virtual Servers on your LAN have the same IP Address. This IP
Address is allocated by your ISP.
This address should be static, rather than dynamic, to make it easier for Internet users to
connect to your Servers.
However, you can use the DDNS (Dynamic DNS) feature to allow users to connect to your
Virtual Servers using a URL, instead of an IP Address.
Virtual Servers Screen
•
•
•
The "Virtual Servers" feature allows Internet Users to access PCs on your LAN.
The PCs must be running the appropriate Server Software.
For Internet Users, ALL of your Servers have the same IP address. This IP address is
allocated by your ISP.

•
To make it easier for Internet users to connect to your Servers, you can use the "DDNS"
feature. This allows Internet users to connect to your Servers with a URL, rather than an
IP address. This technology works even if your ISP allocates dynamic IP addresses (IP
address is allocated upon connection, so it may change each time you connect).

PC (Server)
For each entry, the PC must be running the appropriate Server
software. If the desired Server type is not listed, you can define
your own Servers, using the Firewall Rules.
Connecting to the Virtual Servers
Once configured, anyone on the Internet can connect to your Virtual Servers. They must use
the Internet IP Address (the IP Address allocated to you by your ISP).
e.g.
http://203.70.212.52
ftp://203.70.212.52
It is more convenient if you are using a Fixed IP Address from your ISP, rather than Dynamic.
However, you can use the Dynamic DNS feature to allow users to connect to your Virtual
Servers using a URL, rather than an IP Address.

VoIP
To use the VoIP feature requires the following:
•
•
Standard Phone
A standard analogue Phone must be connected to the Phone socket.
VoIP (SIP Server) Account
Generally, you will need a SIP Server account from a VoIP service provider. The account
details should include the SIP Register address, SIP Proxy address, SIP register port, SIP
Proxy port, username, password, and telephone number. (Many providers use the same
proxy server for both Proxy and Register.)
•
VoIP Configuration
•
•
Your VoIP service provider may perform the configuration for you.
If not, refer to the following sections, which describe how to configure the Wireless
VoIP Gateway.
Refer to Chapter 7 - Operation and Status for details on using VoIP once configuration has
been completed.
VoIP Setup Screen
The VoIP setup screen is not on the menu; the VoIP link on the menu displays the VoIP Status
screen, described later in this chapter.
To view the VoIP Setup Screen:
1. Connect to the IAD-200 / IAD-200W using its IP address and the path to the VoIP Setup
screen ( /set_voip.htm ). For example, if the default IP address has not been changed, use
the following:
http://192.168.0.1/set_voip.htm
2. You will see the VoIP Settings screen, like the example below. This screen allows input of
the data necessary to establish a connection to the SIP Server.

PSTN Relay
The PSTN Relay allows certain calls to be diverted to the
PSTN link, even though VoIP is working properly.
PSTN Prefix
This PSTN prefix means that any number beginning with this
prefix will be diverted to PSTN (the prefix itself is deleted,
then the remainder of the number is dialed via PSTN).
•
•
If the prefix is a single character, that character must be *
If the prefix is multiple characters, all characters after the
1st character must be digits. The 1st char character can be *
or a digit.
Note: When dialing, do not wait for a 2nd dial tone for the
PSTN; there is no 2nd dial tone. Just dial the PSTN prefix and
the desired phone number.
This provides another method of diverting calls to the PSTN
link. Any Telephone numbers listed in this table will always be
dialed via PSTN.
PSTN Fixed Relay
This feature should be used to direct emergency numbers to the
PSTN.
PSTN Rollover
Use PSTN…
If enabled, then when VoIP is unavailable, all calls from the
handset will be sent via PSTN. (This is the same effect as
occurs when the power is off.) However, note that VoIP phone
numbers (beginning with are often unreachable via PSTN.
Normally, this setting should be Enabled.

PC Database
The PC Database is used whenever you need to select a PC (e.g. for the "DMZ" PC).
•
•
It eliminates the need to enter IP addresses.
Also, you do not need to use fixed IP addresses on your LAN.
However, if you do use a fixed IP address on some devices on your LAN, you should enter
details of each such device into the PC database, using the PC Database screen.
PC Database Screen
An example PC Database screen is shown below.

PCs which are "DHCP Clients" are automatically added to the database, and updated as
required.
By default, non-Server versions of Windows act as "DHCP Clients"; this setting is called
"Obtain an IP Address automatically".
The IAD-200 / IAD-200W uses the "Hardware Address" to identify each PC, not the
name or IP address. The "Hardware Address" can only change if you change the PC's
network card or adapter.
•
This system means you do NOT need to use Fixed (static) IP addresses on your LAN.
However, you can add PCs using Fixed (static) IP Addresses to the PC database if re-
quired.

Routing
Overview
•
•
•
If you don't have other Routers or Gateways on your LAN, you can ignore the "Routing"
page completely.
If the IAD-200 / IAD-200W is only acting as a Gateway for the local LAN segment,
ignore the "Routing" page even if your LAN has other Routers.
If your LAN has a standard Router (e.g. Cisco) on your LAN, and the IAD-200 / IAD-
200W is to act as a Gateway for all LAN segments, enable RIP (Routing Information Pro-
tocol) and ignore the Static Routing table.
•
•
If your LAN has other Gateways and Routers, and you wish to control which LAN seg-
ments use each Gateway, do NOT enable RIP (Routing Information Protocol). Configure
the Static Routing table instead. (You also need to configure the other Routers.)
If using Windows 2000 Data center Server as a software Router, enable RIP on the IAD-
200 / IAD-200W, and ensure the following Windows 2000 settings are correct:
•
•
Open Routing and Remote Access
In the console tree, select Routing and Remote Access , [server name], IP Routing,
RIP
•
•
In the "Details" pane, right-click the interface you want to configure for RIP version 2,
and then click "Properties".
On the "General" tab, set Outgoing packet protocol to "RIP version 2 broadcast", and
Incoming packet protocol to "RIP version 1 and 2".
Routing Screen
The routing table is accessed by the Routing link on the Administration menu.
Using this Screen
Generally, you will use either RIP (Routing Information Protocol) OR the Static Routing Table,
as explained above, although is it possible to use both methods simultaneously.
Static Routing Table
•
If RIP is not used, an entry in the routing table is required for each LAN segment on your
Network, other than the segment to which this device is attached.
•
The other Routers must also be configured. See Configuring Other Routers on your LAN
later in this chapter for further details and an example.

Configuring Other Routers on your LAN
It is essential that all IP packets for devices not on the local LAN be passed to the IAD-200 /
IAD-200W, so that they can be forwarded to the external LAN, WAN, or Internet. To achieve
this, the local LAN must be configured to use the IAD-200 / IAD-200W as the Default Route
or Default Gateway.
86
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Local Router
The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as the IAD-200 / IAD-200W.
This router requires that the Default Route is the IAD-200 / IAD-200W itself. Typically,
routers have a special entry for the Default Route. It should be configured as follows.
Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.
Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.

Other Routers on the Local LAN
Other routers on the local LAN must use the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's Local Router as the
Default Route. The entries will be the same as the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's local router, with
the exception of the Gateway IP Address.
•
For a router with a direct connection to the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's local Router, the
Gateway IP Address is the address of the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's local router.
•
For routers which must forward packets to another router before reaching the IAD-200 /
IAD-200W's local router, the Gateway IP Address is the address of the intermediate router.

Appendix A
Troubleshooting
A
This Appendix covers the most likely problems and their solutions.
Overview
This section covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the IAD-200
/ IAD-200W and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the
IAD-200 / IAD-200W still does not function properly, contact your dealer for further advice.
General Problems
Problem 1:
Can't connect to the IAD-200 / IAD-200W to configure it.
Check the following:
Solution 1:
•
•
•
•
The IAD-200 / IAD-200W is properly installed, LAN connections are
OK, and it is powered ON.
Ensure that your PC and the IAD-200 / IAD-200W are on the same
network segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
If your PC is set to "Obtain an IP Address automatically" (DHCP
client), restart it.
If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using an IP
Address within the range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 and thus com-
patible with the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's default IP Address of
192.168.0.1.
Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the
IAD-200 / IAD-200W.
In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control Panel-
Network to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.
Internet Access
Problem 1:
When I enter a URL or IP address I get a time out error.
A number of things could be causing this. Try the following troubleshooting
steps.
Solution 1:
•
Check if other PCs work. If they do, ensure that your PCs IP settings
are correct. If using a Fixed (Static) IP Address, check the Network
Mask, Default gateway and DNS as well as the IP Address.
•
If the PCs are configured correctly, but still not working, check the
IAD-200 / IAD-200W. Ensure that it is connected and ON. Connect to
it and check its settings. (If you can't connect to it, check the LAN and
power connections.)
•
Check the IAD-200 / IAD-200W's status screen to see if it is working
correctly.

Problem 2:
Some applications do not run properly when using the IAD-200 / IAD-
200W.
The IAD-200 / IAD-200W processes the data passing through it, so it is not
transparent.
Solution 2:
For incoming connections, you must use the Virtual Server or Firewall
Rules to specify the PC which will receive the incoming traffic.
You can also use the DMZ function. This should work with almost every
application, but:
•
•
It is a security risk, since the firewall is disabled.
Only one (1) PC can use this feature.
Wireless Access (IAD-200W only)
Problem 1:
My PC can't locate the Wireless Access Point.
Check the following.
Solution 1:
•
Your PC is set to Infrastructure Mode. (Access Points are always in
Infrastructure Mode)
•
The SSID on your PC and the Wireless Access Point are the same.
Remember that the SSID is case-sensitive. So, for example "Work-
group" does NOT match "workgroup".
•
Both your PC and the IAD-200W must have the same setting for WEP.
The default setting for the IAD-200W is disabled, so your wireless sta-
tion should also have WEP disabled.
•
•
If WEP is enabled on the IAD-200W, your PC must have WEP en-
abled, and the key must match.
If the IAD-200W's Wireless screen is set to Allow Trusted PCs only,
then each of your Wireless stations must have been designated as
"Trusted", or the Wireless station will be blocked.
•
To see if radio interference is causing a problem, see if connection is
possible when close to the IAD-200W.
Remember that the connection range can be as little as 100 feet in poor
environments.
Problem 2:
Wireless connection speed is very slow.
The wireless system will connect at the highest possible speed, depending
on the distance and the environment. To obtain the highest possible connec-
tion speed, you can experiment with the following:
Solution 2:
•
IAD-200W location.
Try adjusting the location and orientation of the IAD-200W.
•
Wireless Channel
If interference is the problem, changing to another channel may show a
marked improvement.
•
•
Radio Interference
Other devices may be causing interference. You can experiment by
switching other devices Off, and see if this helps. Any "noisy" devices
should be shielded or relocated.
RF Shielding
Your environment may tend to block transmission between the wireless

stations. This will mean high access speed is only possible when close
to the IAD-200W.

Appendix B
About Wireless LANs
(IAD-200W only)
B
This Appendix provides some background information about using Wireless
LANs (IAD-200W only).
Modes
Wireless LANs can work in either of two (2) modes:
•
•
Ad-hoc
Infrastructure
Ad-hoc Mode
Ad-hoc mode does not require an Access Point or a wired (Ethernet) LAN. Wireless Sta-
tions (e.g. notebook PCs with wireless cards) communicate directly with each other.
Infrastructure Mode
In Infrastructure Mode, one or more Access Points are used to connect Wireless Stations
(e.g. Notebook PCs with wireless cards) to a wired (Ethernet) LAN. The Wireless Stations
can then access all LAN resources.
Access Points can only function in "Infrastructure" mode, and can
communicate only with Wireless Stations which are set to "Infra-
structure" mode.
BSS/ESS
BSS
A group of Wireless Stations and a single Access Point, all using the same ID (SSID), form a
Basic Service Set (BSS).
Using the same SSID is essential. Devices with different SSIDs are unable to communicate
with each other.
ESS
A group of Wireless Stations, and multiple Access Points, all using the same ID (ESSID), form
an Extended Service Set (ESS).
Different Access Points within an ESS can use different Channels. In fact, to reduce interfer-
ence, it is recommended that adjacent Access Points SHOULD use different channels.
As Wireless Stations are physically moved through the area covered by an ESS, they will
automatically change to the Access Point which has the least interference or best performance.
This capability is called Roaming. (Access Points do not have or require Roaming capabilities.)

Channels
The Wireless Channel sets the radio frequency used for communication.
•
Access Points use a fixed Channel. You can select the Channel used. This allows you to
choose a Channel which provides the least interference and best performance. In the USA
and Canada, 11 channels are available. If using multiple Access Points, it is better if adja-
cent Access Points use different Channels to reduce interference.
•
•
In "Infrastructure" mode, Wireless Stations normally scan all Channels, looking for an
Access Point. If more than one Access Point can be used, the one with the strongest signal
is used. (This can only happen within an ESS.)
If using "Ad-hoc" mode (no Access Point), all Wireless stations should be set to use the
same Channel. However, most Wireless stations will still scan all Channels to see if there
is an existing "Ad-hoc" group they can join.
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a standard for encrypting data before it is transmitted.
This is desirable because it is impossible to prevent snoopers from receiving any data which is
transmitted by your Wireless Stations. But if the data is encrypted, then it is meaningless
unless the receiver can decrypt it.
If WEP is used, the Wireless Stations and the Access Point must have the same settings
for each of the following:
Off, 64 Bit, 128 Bit
WEP
Key
For 64 Bit encryption, the Key value must match.
For 128 Bit encryption, the Key value must match
Open System or Shared Key.
WEP Authentication
WPA-PSK
WPA-PSK is another standard for encrypting data before it is transmitted. This is a later
standard than WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), and provides greater security for your data.
Data is encrypted using a 256Bit key which is automatically generated and changed often.
If all your Wireless stations support WPA-PSK, you should use this instead of WEP.
If WPA-PSK is used, the Wireless Stations and the Access Point must have the same
settings for each of the following:
Enter the same value on every station and the AP. The PSK
must be from 8 to 63 characters in length. The 256Bit key
used for the actual encryption is derived from this key.
WPA PSK
(Pre-shared Key)
The same encryption method must be used. The most
common encryption method is TKIP. Another widely-
supported method is AES.

Wireless LAN Configuration
To allow Wireless Stations to use the Access Point, the Wireless Stations and the Access Point
must use the same settings, as follows:
On client Wireless Stations, the mode must be set to "Infrastructure".
(The Access Point is always in "Infrastructure" mode.)
Mode
Wireless Stations should use the same SSID (ESSID) as the Access
Point they wish to connect to. Alternatively, the SSID can be set to
"any" or null (blank) to allow connection to any Access Point.
SSID (ESSID)
The Wireless Stations and the Access Point must use the same settings
for Wireless security. (None, WEP, WPA-PSK).
Wireless
Security
WEP: If WEP is used, the Key size (64Bit, 128Bit), Key value, and
Authentication settings must be the same on the Wireless Stations and
the Access Point.
WPA-PSK: If WPA-PSK is used, all Wireless Stations must be set to
use WPA-PSK, and have the same Pre-shared Key and encryption
system.
For Ad-hoc networks (no Access Point), all Wireless stations must
use the same security settings.
