Introduction  
CPWBS154  
Congratulations on your purchase of the Philips ADSL Wireless Base  
Station, hereafter referred to as the ‘ADSL Wireless Base Station’.We are  
proud to provide you with a powerful yet simple communication device for  
connecting your local area network (LAN) to the Internet.  
For those who want to surf the Internet in the most secure way, this router  
provides a convenient and powerful solution.  
About the ADSL Wireless Base Station  
The ADSL Wireless Base Station provides Internet access to multiple users  
by sharing a single-user account. Support is provided for both wired and  
wireless devices. New technology provides wireless security via Wired  
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption and MAC address filtering. It is simple  
to configure and can be up and running in minutes.  
Features and Benefits  
• Internet connection to an ADSL line via an RJ-11 ADSL port  
• Local network connection via four 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports  
• On-board IEEE 802.11g wireless network adapter  
• DHCP for dynamic IP configuration, and DNS for domain name mapping  
• Firewall with Stateful Packet Inspection, client privileges, intrusion detection,  
and NAT  
• NAT also enables multi-user Internet access via a single user account, and  
virtual server functionality (providing protected access to Internet services  
such as web, FTP, email, andTelnet)  
• VPN pass-through (IPSec-ESP Tunnel mode, L2TP, PPTP)  
• User-definable application sensing tunnel supports applications requiring  
multiple connections  
• Easy setup through a web browser on any operating system that supports  
TCP/IP  
• Compatible with all popular Internet applications  
Applications  
Many advanced networking features are provided by the ADSL Wireless  
Base Station:  
Wireless and Wired LAN  
The ADSL Wireless Base Station provides connectivity to 10/100 Mbps  
devices, and wireless IEEE 802.11g compatible devices, making it easy to  
create a network in small offices or homes.  
Internet Access  
This device supports Internet access through an ADSL connection. Since  
many DSL providers use PPPoE or PPPoA to establish communications with  
end users, the ADSL Wireless Base Station includes built-in clients for these  
protocols, eliminating the need to install these services on your computer.

Shared IP Address  
The ADSL Wireless Base Station provides Internet access for up to  
253 users via a single shared IP address. Using only one ISP account,  
multiple users on your network can browse the web at the same time.  
Virtual Server  
If you have a fixed IP address, you can set the ADSL Wireless Base Station  
to act as a virtual host for network address translation. Remote users access  
various services at your site using a constant IP address.Then, depending on  
the requested service (or port number), the ADSL Wireless Base Station  
can route the request to the appropriate server (at another internal  
IP address).This secures your network from direct attack by hackers, and  
provides more flexible management by allowing you to change internal  
IP addresses without affecting outside access to your network.  
DMZ Host Support  
Allows a networked computer to be fully exposed to the Internet.  
This function is used when NAT and firewall security prevent an Internet  
application from functioning correctly.  
Security  
The ADSL Wireless Base Station supports security features that deny  
Internet access to specified users, or filter all requests for specific services  
that the administrator does not want to serve.The ADSL Wireless Base  
Station's firewall also blocks common hacker attacks, including IP Spoofing,  
Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port  
loopback, Snork Attack,TCP null scan, and TCP SYN flooding.WEP (Wired  
Equivalent Privacy), SSID, and MAC filtering provide security over the  
wireless network.

• Please install and connect the product in the order as described in the  
chapter ‘BeforeYou Start Guide’ only.This assures best installation results  
with the least technical hassles.  
• Please read this guide carefully before using the ADSL Wireless Base Station;  
and keep it for future reference.  
• During set-up and installation, it may be helpful to have the instructions for  
your PC and other network components at hand.

ENGLISH 40  
Address Mapping  
Allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal  
users.This also hides the internal network for increased privacy and security.  
Enter the Public IP address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter  
a range of internal IPs that will share the global IP into the ‘from’ field.  
Virtual Server  
If you configure the ADSL Wireless Base Station as a virtual server, remote  
users accessing services such as web or FTP at your local site via public IP  
addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with  
private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service  
(TCP/UDP port number), the ADSL Wireless Base Station redirects the  
external service request to the appropriate server (located at another  
internal IP address).  
For example, if you set Type/Public Port toTCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the  
Private IP/Port to 192.168.1.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside  
users will be transferred to 192.168.1.2 on port 80.Therefore, by just  
entering the IP address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the  
service they need at the local address to which you redirect them.

Authentication Code  
Password Authentication key.  
RIP sends routing-update messages at regular intervals and when the  
network topology changes.When a router receives a routing update that  
includes changes to an entry, it updates its routing table to reflect the new  
route. RIP routers maintain only the best route to a destination.  
After updating its routing table, the router immediately begins transmitting  
routing updates to inform other network routers of the change.

Firewall  
The ADSL Wireless Base Station's firewall inspects packets at the application  
layer, maintainsTCP and UDP session information including time-outs and  
the number of active sessions, and provides the ability to detect and prevent  
certain types of network attacks.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
ENGLISH 45  
Network attacks that deny access to a network device are called Denial-of-  
Service (DoS) attacks. DoS attacks are aimed at devices and networks with  
a connection to the Internet.Their goal is not to steal information, but to  
disable a device or network so users no longer have access to network  
resources.  
The ADSL Wireless Base Station firewall function protects against the  
following DoS attacks: IP Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero  
length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack,TCP null scan, and  
TCP SYN flooding. (See page 48-50 for details.)  
The firewall does not significantly affect system performance, so we advise  
leaving it enabled to protect your network. Select Enable and click the ‘SAVE  
SETTINGS’ button to open the Firewall submenus.

Stateful Packet Inspection  
This is called a ‘stateful’ packet inspection because it examines the contents  
of the packet to determine the state of the communications; i.e., it ensures  
that the stated destination computer has previously requested the current  
communication.This is a way of ensuring that all communications are  
initiated by the recipient computer and are taking place only with sources  
that are known and trusted from previous interactions. In addition to being  
more rigorous in their inspection of packets, stateful inspection firewalls also  
close off ports until connection to the specific port is requested.  
When particular types of traffic are checked, only the particular type of  
traffic initiated from the internal LAN will be allowed. For example, if the  
user only checks ‘FTP Service’ in the Stateful Packet Inspection section, all  
incoming traffic will be blocked except for FTP connections initiated from  
the local LAN.

Stateful Packet Inspection allows you to select different application types  
that are using dynamic port numbers. If you wish to use the Stateful Packet  
Inspection (SPI) to block packets, click on theYes radio button in the  
‘Enable SPI and Anti-DoS firewall protection’ field and then check the  
inspection type that you need, such as Packet Fragmentation,TCP  
Connection, UDP Session, FTP Service, H.323 Service, orTFTP Service.

Troubleshooting  
This section describes common problems you may encounter and possible  
solutions to them.The ADSL Wireless Base Station can be easily monitored  
through panel indicators to identify problems.  
Problem  
Solution  
Power LED is Off  
• Check connections between the ADSL Wireless Base Station, the external power  
supply, and the wall outlet.  
• If the power indicator does not turn on when the power cord is plugged in, you may  
have a problem with the power outlet, power cord, or external power supply.  
However, if the unit powers off after running for a while, check for loose power  
connections, power losses, or surges at the power outlet.  
If you still cannot isolate the problem, then the external power supply may be  
defective. In this case, contact Technical Support for assistance.  
Link LED is Off  
• Verify that the ADSL Wireless Base Station and attached device are powered on.  
• Be sure the cable is plugged into both the ADSL Wireless Base Station and the  
corresponding device.  
• Verify that the proper cable type is used and that its length does not exceed the  
specified limits.  
• Make sure that the network interface on the attached device is configured for the  
proper communication speed and duplex mode.  
• Check the adapter on the attached device and cable connections for possible defects.  
Replace any defective adapter or cable if necessary.  
Cannot ping the  
ADSL Wireless Base  
Station from the  
attached LAN  
• Verify that the IP addresses are properly configured.  
For most applications, you should use the ADSL Wireless Base Station's DHCP  
function to dynamically assign IP addresses to hosts on the attached LAN. However, if  
you manually configure IP addresses on the LAN, verify that the same network  
address (network component of the IP address) and subnet mask are used for both  
the ADSL Wireless Base Station and any attached LAN devices.  
• Make sure the device you want to ping (or from which you are pinging) has been  
configured forTCP/IP.  
Cannot connect  
using the web  
browser  
• Be sure to have configured the ADSL Wireless Base Station with a valid IP address,  
subnet mask, and default gateway.  
• Check that you have a valid network connection to the ADSL Wireless Base Station  
and that the port you are using has not been disabled.  
• Check the network cabling between the management station and the ADSL Wireless  
Base Station.
