54 Mbps Wireless Router WGR614v7 Reference Manual
2-4 Introduction
April 2006
• IP Address Sharing by NAT
The wireless router allows several networked computers to share an Internet account using
only a single IP address, which may be statically or dynamically assigned by your Internet
service provider (ISP). This technique, known as NAT, allows the use of an inexpensive
single-user ISP account.
• Automatic Configuration of Attached computers by DHCP
The wireless router dynamically assigns network configuration information, including
IP, gateway, and domain name server (DNS) addresses, to attached computers on the LAN
using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This feature greatly simplifies
configuration of computers on your local network.
• DNS Proxy
When DHCP is enabled and no DNS addresses are specified, the router provides its own
address as a DNS server to the attached computers. The router obtains actual DNS addresses
from the ISP during connection setup and forwards DNS requests from the LAN.
• PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
PPPoE is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the Internet over a DSL connection by
simulating a dial-up connection. This feature eliminates the need to run a login program such
as Entersys or WinPOET on your computer.
Easy Installation and Management
You can install, configure, and operate the 54 Mbps Wireless Router WGR614v7 within minutes
after connecting it to the network. The following features simplify installation and management
tasks:
• Browser-based management
Browser-based configuration allows you to easily configure your router from almost any type
of personal computer, such as Windows, Macintosh, or Linux. A user-friendly Setup Wizard is
provided and online help documentation is built into the browser-based Web Management
Interface.
• Smart Wizard
The wireless router Smart Wizard automatically senses the type of Internet connection, asking
you only for the information required for your type of ISP account.
• Firmware Update
The wireless router can be updated if a newer version of firmware is available. This lets you
take advantage of product enhancements for your WGR614v7 as soon as they become
available.
