Installation

Association Control
This page allows you to control which computers can connect to the Wireless-G Broadband
Gateway.

If you enable this feature, only computers with a MAC address listed located in Association
Control List can connect to the wireless LAN.

Network Address Translation allows multiple computers on your network to access the Internet
over a single user account. NAT can also prevent hacker attacks by mapping local addresses
to public addresses for key services such as Web or FTP.

• Static NAT Setting
Use the Static NAT screen for the Network Address Translation (NAT) process that provides
internal to external IP address mapping.

• Virtual Server
You can configure the Wireless-G Broadband Gateway as a virtual server so that remote users
can access services such as Web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses.
