To provide secure connections across the Internet, consider purchasing the 
Virtual Private Network (VPN) software option.  Additional information on NAT, 
Firewall, and Secure VPN can be found in the CLI Reference Manual.
Can I have an FTP, Mail or Web server and use NAT?
Yes, but you need to configure your router appropriately using the NAT Setting 
screen or the Command Line Interface (CLI).  By entering a remote system 
or addServer command, you can add FTP, Mail, NetMeeting or Web servers 
to your LAN.  These can then be accessed from another LAN or the Internet 
while NAT is enabled.
What is MER?
MER (MAC Encapsulated Routing) allows your router to perform routing on the 
LAN side and bridging on the WAN side.  MER is needed only when your 
Network Service Provider doesn’t support IP routing.  MER adds NAT 
functionality, thereby providing greater security and more IP addresses for your 
LAN than what is provided by your NSP.
Why can’t I get a response after entering a URL in my browser?
If you do not get a response, try pinging the IP address.  If you get a response to 
pinging, then your Domain Name Service (DNS) is probably failing.  You should 
contact your NSP for DNS assistance.  If you do not get a response, then try 
pinging the WAN Gateway address (of your NSP) to confirm that your router can 
connect with the NSP.
If pinging fails, check the router’s lights.  The Link lights on the router front 
should be green.  Also check your cable connections.  If everything appears 
correct, check your IP configuration and ensure that the gateway and LAN IP 
addresses match.
How can I connect my modem for dial backup if the connector on my dialup modem 
doesn’t match the console port on the router?
You need a special DB9 to DB25 connector, available from the Efficient 
Networks web site at the following address: http://www.efficient.com
My modem is not a V.90.  Can I use it for dial backup?
Yes, you can use a non-V.90 modem with your router for dial backup.  Be sure to 
use the correct initialization string for your modem (consult your modem 
documentation).
