N150 4-Port Wireless Router JNR1010

If you suspect an MTU problem, a common solution is to change the MTU to 1400. If you are

willing to experiment, you can gradually reduce the MTU from the maximum value of 1500

until the problem goes away. The following table describes common MTU sizes and

applications.

Table 2. Common MTU Sizes

MTU Application

1500 The largest Ethernet packet size and the default value. This setting is typical for

connections that do not use PPPoE or VPN, and is the default value for NETGEAR

routers, adapters, and switches.

1492 Used in PPPoE environments.

1472 Maximum size to use for pinging. (Larger packets are fragmented.)

1468 Used in some DHCP environments.

1460 Usable by AOL if you do not have large email attachments, for example.

1436 Used in PPTP environments or with VPN.

1400 Maximum size for AOL DSL.

576 Typical value to connect to dial-up ISPs.

 To change the MTU size:

1. Select Advanced > Setup > W

AN Setup.

2. In the MTU Size field, enter a value from 64 to 1500.

3. Click Apply to save the settings.

LAN Setup

The LAN Setup screen allows configuration of LAN IP services such as Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Routing Information Protocol (RIP).

The router is shipped preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act

as a DHCP server. Following is the router’s default LAN IP configuration:

• LAN IP address. 192.168.1.1

• Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0

These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private networks

and are suitable for most applications. If your network requires a dif

ferent IP addressing

scheme, you can change these settings in the LAN Setup screen.
