Introduction / Powerline routing overview

Introduction
Congratulations! Thank you for choosing the Corinex Powerline Router.
The Router allows you to set up a home or small business network to
share your high-speed Internet connection using either Ethernet cabling or
Powerline connection.
1.1 Powerline Routing Overview
The Corinex Powerline Router provides a convenient Internet access and
distribution capability for broadband service providers and users alike,
using any incoming high speed signal, whether by A/DSL, cable, satellite or
fiber optics as access and the existing electrical wires as distribution media.
This product enables multiple users in small to medium size offices
and homes to share one broadband account and experience a high
speed networking capability for data, voice, audio and video, without
pulling new wires. The embedded Network Address Translation (NAT)
feature enables the usage of a private set of IP addresses, which the Router
translates into a single public IP address. The Router can also act as a DHCP
server by automatically allocating a dynamic IP address to each piece of
equipment, which connects by a communications port, like Ethernet, USB,
PCI or 802.11b to the network. The Router has three LAN, one WAN 10/
100M Ethernet and one powerline port. The Router can act as the "bridge"
between the access side of the network and its specific wire requirements
and the distribution side of the network, which uses the existing electrical
wires to move the signals to every electrical outlet and makes those signals
available to wired or portable devices. The Corinex Powerline Router
supports the entirely new Corinex Powerline and CableLAN product family,
which consists of:
5
• Corinex Powerline Ethernet Adapter
• Corinex Powerline USB Adapter
• Corinex Ethernet Wall Mount
• Corinex CableLAN Adapter
• Corinex Wireless to Powerline Access Point
The Router‘s connection to the electrical wires (powerline) is based upon
the HomePlug 1.0.1 industry standard. This standard warrants a robust
and reliable performance for all devices that have passed the HomePlug
certification test and are connected to the network. The reliability is made

Corinex Powerline Router User Guide
Powerline routing overview / Router Features
possible by the use of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
(OFDM) technology. This multi-carrier modulation scheme allows devices
to dynamically "surf the channel" – instantly shifting data from one carrier
to another, looking for the least noise affected carrier to bring the signal
to its destination.
All Corinex Powerline and CableLAN products have been optimized for
low-latency, high-reliability networking applications and use the HomePlug
1.0.1 certified powerline networking technology, which supports data rates
up to 14 Mbps. The Corinex Powerline Router also fully complies with the
IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u 10/100M standard and offers static and dynamic
IP routing mode operation, NAT, DHCP and IP filtering functionality. The
Router supports a wide range of communications protocols and works
seamlessly with all major access technologies, including A/DSL and Cable
modems with PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) and/or Microsoft Peer-to-Peer
Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), as well as "Direct Connection" type service. The
Corinex Powerline Router has advanced firewalling features, which protect
home/SOHO networks from unwanted access. Corinex Powerline Router
uses 56-bit DES Encryption with key management for secured powerline
communications applications.
6
End user equipment which uses Corinex adapters to conect to the network
can run on Windows 98/ME/2000/NT/XP, Linux and MAC operating systems
and use the full range of the Routers networking features.
1.2 Router Features
The Corinex Powerline Router contains an HTTP server with web
configurable SNMP powerline agent. This enables you to connect to it, and
configure it, using your web browser. Every Corinex Powerline, CableLAN
and Wireless product, no matter where it is located in the network, can
be managed by the Corinex Open Powerline Management software or by
using a web browser. Corinex offers a one-stop-shop experience and offers
this for networking solutions in homes, apartments, condominiums, small
to medium size offices, schools, hospitals, hotels, conference centers or
shopping malls.

Step 2: Configuring Computer
2.2 Step 2: Configuring Computers
The instructions in this chapter will help you to configure each of your
computers to be able to communicate with the Corinex Powerline Router.
This process differs between Ethernet connected computers and Powerline
connected computers, and also differs between different operating
systems.
If you have an Ethernet connected computer, proceed to B, if you have a
Powerline connected computer proceed to A.
A. We advise you to read and use the Manual of your Powerline Adapter
to establish a Powerline connection between the Corinex Powerline Router
and the Powerline Adapter. Use the default Powerline (NEK) password
"HomePlug", as this is the factory default password setting for the Corinex
Powerline Router. When you are using the Corinex Setup Tool to configure
your powerline adapter, you can check, whether your Adapter has a
powerline connection to the Corinex Powerline Router by searching in the
last window of the Corinex Setup Tool for the MAC address of the Router.
You will find the MAC address of your Corinex Powerline Router on the
label on the bottom of the Router’s plastic cover (MAC PLC/SN). Proceed
to B.
17
Fig.2.2 Corinex Setup Tool
B. Next you will need to configure your TCP/IP settings so that your
computer will obtain an IP (or TCP/IP) address automatically (called DHCP).
Computers use IP addresses to communicate with each other across a
network or the Internet.

4.1 Corinex Product Support
You may contact the Corinex "help desk" by sending an e-mail to:
- describing your problem
- reporting the devices types and manufacturing numbers of your
network devices
- giving us a phone number under which you may be reached, inclusive a
convenient time to call.
4.2 Troubleshooting Guide
Computer networking can sometimes be "tricky" when many components
must work together for the ultimate network system to function properly.
With the right tools the problems are usually easy to fix. The following
tools, available on your computer or on the Corinex CD, will get you
started.
83
• Setup Tool (from the Corinex Powerline Router Installation CD)
• Ping (from the command/terminal prompt, see chapter 6)
• ipconfig (WinNT/2000/XP), winipcfg (Win9x/Me) (from the command
prompt)
If it just doesn’t work...
1. Check that the power LED on the Powerline side labeled LINK (L) on all
devices are on, if not:
• Check the AC cables.
• Make sure the AC outlet is working by plugging something else into it.
If this works, try another outlet. If this fails as well, try 2. – 4.
2. Check the Ethernet cables:
The Corinex Powerline Router has a LED on the Ethernet side labeled
Link/Act. If it is not on:
• Check if the device at the other end of the Ethernet cable is switched
on.
• Try a different Ethernet cable.

Corinex Powerline Router User Guide
Troubleshooting Guide
3. Check that the devices exist on the network:
Start the Setup Tool, click "Next" and see if all devices on your network are
found. If all devices are listed, skip this section. If a device is missing:
• Make sure all computers have only one active network slot.
• Make sure the Corinex Powerline Adapters are plugged straight into the
power socket.
• Unplug all Corinex Powerline Adapters and plug them back in again, one
by one. Run the Setup Tool again.
• The devices may be programmed with different passwords. Setup all
devices with a new password as described in the chapter 3.9.
4. Check that TCP/IP detects the Corinex Powerline Adapters:
From the command prompt, run ping and type the computer name or IP
address of the computer you are working on [ping your computer name].
This should return 4 good packets. Now try to ping another computer on
the network. If a timeout occurs:
• Go into the TCP/IP properties and check that the buttons for automatically
obtaining IP addresses and gateway are checked. If not, make sure that
both computers are on the same subnet.
• Run ipconfig/all from the command prompt on all computers to verify
that all computers have valid IP addresses on the same subnet.
• The IP tables may be corrupted, reboot all computers and try again.
If these tests work, you have basic connectivity and can use all network
services. If this does not work, you may have a faulty device. Please contact
your reseller or local distributor.
84
I have got all that, it still doesn’t work...
• Make sure that your TCP/IP settings are set to automatically obtaining IP
address and gateway address.
• Switch off all computers and unplug the Powerline devices, now plug
your Powerline Adapter back into power socket before switching on your
computer. This will ensure that the computer’s IP address will be obtained
from the Router.
• Now open the web browser, if the "Not Found" page appears, try to
check your LAN settings in the Internet Options of your web browser.
It works but it is slow...
A slow connection is almost always due to poor cable connection.
• Make sure the device is connected straight into the power outlet and
not into a extension.

channel, in terms of how much data the facility can transmit in a fixed
amount of time; expressed in bits per second (bps). 2. The difference
between the highest and lowest frequencies of a band that can be passed
by a transmission medium without undue distortion, such as the AM band
535 to 1705 kilohertz.
Baseband - Transmission scheme in which the entire bandwidth, or data-
carrying capacity, of a medium (such as a coaxial cable) is used to carry
a single digital pulse, or signal, between multiple users. Because digital
signals are not modulated, only one kind of data can be transmitted at a
time. Contrast with broadband.

modem users have a continuous connection to the Internet. Cable modems
feature asymmetric transfer rates: around 36 Mbps downstream (from the
Internet to the computer), and from 200 Kbps to 2 Mbps upstream (from
the computer to the Internet).
Caching – 1. Speeds information processing by storing information from
a transaction to use for later transactions. 2. Storing or buffering data
in a temporary location, so that an application program can retrieve the
information quickly.
88
Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) -A
channel access mechanism wherein devices wishing to transmit first check
the channel for a carrier. If no carrier is sensed for some period of time,
devices can transmit. If two devices transmit simultaneously, a collision
occurs and is detected by all colliding devices, which subsequently delays
their retransmissions for some random length of time. CSMA/CD access is
used by Ethernet /IEEE 802.3 and HomePlug.
CAT 3 - ANSI/EIA (American National Standards Institute/Electronic
Industries Association) Standard 568 is one of several standards that specify

Database - A database is a collection of data that is organized so that its
contents can easily be accessed, managed, and updated.
Data Packet - One frame in a packet-switched message. Most data
communications is based on dividing the transmitted message into
packets. For example, an Ethernet packet can be from 64 to 1518 bytes in
length.
Default Gateway - The routing device used to forward all traffic that is not
addressed to a station within the local subnet.
Demodulation - Opposite of modulation; the process of retrieving data
from a modulated carrier wave.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - A protocol that lets
network administrators centrally manage and automate the assignment
of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses in an organization’s network. Using
the Internet’s set of protocol (TCP/IP), each machine that can connect to
the Internet needs a unique IP address. When an organization sets up its
computer users with a connection to the Internet, an IP address must be
assigned to each machine. Without DHCP, the IP address must be entered
manually at each computer and, if computers move to another location
in another part of the network, a new IP address must be entered. DHCP
lets a network administrator supervise and distribute IP addresses from a
central point and automatically sends a new IP address when a computer
is plugged into a different place in the network. DHCP uses the concept
of a "lease" or amount of time that a given IP address will be valid for a
computer. The lease time can vary depending on how long a user is likely
to require the Internet connection at a particular location. It’s especially
useful in education and other environments where users change frequently.
Using very short leases, DHCP can dynamically reconfigure networks in
which there are more computers than there are available IP addresses.
DHCP supports static addresses for computers containing Web servers that
need a permanent IP address.
89
DMZ - (DeMilitarized Zone) allows one IP address (or computer) to be
exposed to the Internet. Some applications require multiple TCP/IP ports
to be open. It is recommended that you set your computer with a static IP
address if you want to use DMZ Hosting.

DSSS (Direct-Sequence Spread-Spectrum) - DSSS generates a redundant
bit pattern for each bit to be transmitted. This bit pattern is called a chip
(or chipping code). The longer the chip, the greater the probability that
the original data can be recovered. Even if one or more bits in the chip
are damaged during transmission, statistical techniques embedded in the
radio can recover the original data without the need for retransmission. To
an unintended receiver, DSSS appears as low power wideband noise and is
rejected (ignored) by most narrowband receivers.
90
Dynamic IP Address - An IP address that is automatically assigned to
a client station in a TCP/IP network, typically by a DHCP server. Network
devices that serve multiple users, such as servers and printers, are usually
assigned static IP addresses.
Dynamic Routing - The ability for a Router to forward data via a different
route based on the current conditions of the communications circuits. For
example, it can adjust for overloaded traffic or failing lines and is much
more flexible than static routing, which uses a fixed forwarding path.
Encapsulation - The wrapping of data in a particular protocol header. For
example, Ethernet data is wrapped in a specific Ethernet header before
network transit.
Encryption - Applying a specific algorithm to data in order to alter the
data’s appearance and prevent other devices from reading information.

Port Mirroring - Port mirroring, also known as a roving analysis port,
is a method of monitoring network traffic that forwards a copy of each
incoming and outgoing packet from one port of a network switch to
another port where the packet can be studied. A network administrator
uses port mirroring as a diagnostic tool or debugging feature, especially
when fending off an attack. It enables the administrator to keep close
track of switch performance and alter it if necessary. Port mirroring can be
managed locally or remotely.
Print Server - A hardware device that enables a printer to be located
anywhere in the network.
Quality of Service (QoS) - Term for the set of parameters and their values
which determine the performance of a given virtual circuit.
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) - A simple routing protocol that
is part of the TCP/IP protocol suite. It determines a route based on the
smallest hop count between source and destination. RIP is a distance vector
protocol that routinely broadcasts routing information to its neighboring
Routers and is known to waste bandwidth. AppleTalk, DECnet, TCP/IP,
NetWare, and VINES all use incompatible versions of RIP.
95
RJ-11 - (Registered Jack-11) - A telephone connector that holds up to six
wires. The RJ-11 is the common connector used to plug a telephone into
a wall.
RJ-45 - A connector similar to a telephone connector that holds up to eight
wires, used for connecting Ethernet devices.
Router - An OSI Layer 3 device that can decide which of several paths
network traffic will follow based on some optimality metric. Also called
a gateway (although this definition of gateway is becoming increasingly
outdated), routers forward packets from one network to another based on
network-layer information.

type today.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) - The Internet network
management protocol. SNMP provides a means to monitor and set
network configuration and runtime parameters.
Software - Instructions for the computer. A series of instructions that
performs a particular task is called a "program." The two major categories
of software are "system software" and "application software." System
software is made up of control programs such as the operating system
and database management system (DBMS). Application software is any
program that processes data for the user. A common misconception is that
software is data. It is not. Software tells the hardware how to process the
data.
Spoofing - A method of fooling access equipment into thinking a network
connection is active even when it’s not.

A device for making, breaking, or changing the connections in an electrical
circuit.
Switched Ethernet - Configuration supporting an Ethernet hub with
integrated MAC layer bridging or switching capability to provide each
port with 10 or 100 Mbps of bandwidth. Separate transmissions can occur
simultaneously on each port of the switching hub, and the switch filters
traffic based on the destination MAC address.
Throughput - The amount of data moved successfully from one place to
another in a given time period.
Topology - A network’s topology is a logical characterization of how the
devices on the network are connected and the distances between them.
The most common network devices include hubs, switches, Routers, and
gateways. Most large networks contain several levels of interconnection,
the most important of which include edge connections, backbone
connections, and wide-area connections.

Appendix C: How to Ping your ISP’s E-mail and Web address
6 Appendix C: How to Ping your ISP’s E-mail
and Web addresses
Virtually all Internet addresses are configured with words or characters
(e.g., www.corinex.com, www.yahoo.com, etc.). In actuality, however,
these Internet addresses are assigned to IP addresses, which are the true
addresses on the Internet. For example, www.corinex.com is actually
81.0.193.56 at the time of producing this User Guide. Type it into your web
browser and you will end up at the Corinex home page every time.
There are servers that translate the URL to an IP address; these are called
Domain Name System (DNS) Servers. IP and web addresses, however, can
sometimes be long and hard to remember. Because of this, certain ISPs
will shorten their server addresses to single words or codes on their users’
web browser or e-mail configurations. If your ISP’s email and web server
addresses are configured with single words (www, e-mail, home, pop3,
etc.) rather than whole Internet addresses or IP addresses, the Router may
have problems sending or receiving mail and accessing the Internet. This
happens because the Router has not been configured by your ISP to accept
their abbreviated server addresses.
99
The solution is to determine the true web addresses behind your ISPs code
words. You can determine the IP and web addresses of your ISP’s servers
by "pinging" them.
Important: If you don’t have your ISP’s web and e-mail IP addresses,
you must either get them from your ISP or follow these steps prior to
connecting your Corinex Powerline Router to your network.
6.1 Step One: Pinging an IP Address
The first step to determining your ISP’s web and e-mail server address is to
ping its IP address.
1. Power on the computer and the cable or DSL modem, and restore
the network configuration set by your ISP if you have changed it.
2. Click Start, then Run, and type command. This will bring up the
DOS window.
3. At the DOS command prompt, type ping corinex.com(assuming

Corinex Powerline Router User Guide
Step Two: Pinging for a Web Address
that the location for which you’re trying to find an IP address is
configured as corinex.com). Press Enter. Information such as the
following data, taken from a ping of Microsoft Network’s e-mail
server, will be displayed.
Fig. 6.1 Pinging
4. Write down the IP address returned by the ping command. (In
the example above: 81.0.193.56). This IP address is the actual IP
address of the server mail, or any other word or value you have
pinged.
100
6.2 Step Two: Pinging for a Web Address
While the IP address returned above would work as your e-mail server
address, it may not be permanent. IP addresses change all the time. Web
addresses, however, usually don’t. Because of this, you’re likely to have
fewer problems by configuring your system with web addresses rather
than IP addresses. Follow the instructions below to find the web address
assigned to the IP address you just pinged.
1. At the DOS command prompt, type ping -a 81.0.193.56, where
81.0.193.56 is the IP address you just pinged. Information such as
the following data will be displayed.
Fig. 6.2 Pinging

Corinex Powerline Router User Guide
Step Two: Pinging for a Web Address
2. Write down the web address returned by the ping command (In
the example in Figure 6.3 corinex.com is the web address). This
web address is the web address assigned to the IP address you just
pinged. While the IP address of mail could conceivably change, it
is likely that this web address will not.
Fig. 6.3 Pinging
3. Replace your ISP’s abbreviated server address with this extended
web address in the corresponding Internet application (web
browser, e-mail application, etc.).
101
Once you have replaced the brief server address with the true server
address, the Router should have no problem accessing the Internet
through that Internet application.
