Chapter 4

If you are connecting your LAN device to one of the Ethernet ports on your 

router, use a straight-through (red) cable.

If you are connecting your router directly to another hub, then use a crossover 

(yellow) cable.  If your hub has a built-in crossover or uplink port, then you must 

use a straight-through (red) cable.

Yes, if the hub has a 10/100 switch.  You need to set the switch to 10 for the 

router connection.

The default user name is login and the password is admin.

We strongly recommend that you change the router password from the default to 

your own password.  If your NSP has changed the router password from the 

default, you’ll need to contact them for assistance.

Network Address Translation (NAT) is a feature that can provide a level of 

security by hiding the private IP addresses of your LAN behind the single public 

IP address of your router.  All connections must come through your router and be 

translated by NAT.

Further security is available with IP filtering firewall software.  The firewall can 

be accessed through the Web GUI or Command Line Interface (CLI) and 

configured with scripts for a “quick” firewall.  A qualified technician should 

perform all firewall configuration.  Efficient Networks cannot be liable for 

vulnerabilities arising from inadequate firewall configurations.
