Third party devices should not be connected directly to the Unitec router. The
broadband device supplied for Internet service (e.g. DSL or Cable modem) will often
have a built-in router that can be used to connect these devices. In some cases
however, a separate router will need to be installed between the broadband modem
and the Unitec router. The following illustration shows the use of a 2
nd
router for 3
rd
party device connections.
When a router (or modem with built-in router) is used between the Unitec router and
broadband connection, it must be configured to allow external connections to and
from the C-Start. The router should be configured to:
• Forward the ports assigned to the C-Start(s) to the Unitec router. For a single
unit installation the port is 9810. In multi-unit sites, the ports would increment
for each C-Start i.e. 9811, 9812 etc..).
• Provide a static/reserved IP address to the Unitec router reserved so that the
forwarded ports will always be directed to it.
