| 512635 | 2007-01-06 00:20:00 | The firewalling features are only available in DSE Routers with firmware version 10v2. If you have the old version of firmware 9v5, you will not be able to find those features. Which version of firmware you have is displayed on the 'home' page under 'Software Version' or 'Customer Software Version'. If you have 10v2, it is under Advanced > Firewall You can download the firmware here (www.dse.co.nz) if you want to upgrade. Demo of the 10v2 firmware is available here (www.dse.co.nz). |

| 512636 | 2007-01-06 07:23:00 | So do I keep DHCP on ? Does it matter? My 7 boxes have IP's that have a wider step in them so first pc is 192.168.1.10 then 2nd is x.x.x.20 and up to 70 - so I guess to use your idea I just need to keep the range a bit larger for the first range you suggest? As for the first range the 192.168.1.1 is reserved for something is it not, the x.x.x.2 is the router and the x.x.x.3 would be the parents pc? Would rule 4 because it is rule 4 allow rules 1 -3 to function? Is the order of rules important in any router config? Nothing in the on screen help seems to hint that of the 10 inbound/outbound rules you can place that order matters... Mix ---- First create two IP address ranges, one for the 192.168.1.4 to 192.168.1.15 range and one for the 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.3 range. Then you need to put the following rules in the inbound and outbound policies in this order: 1. Allow any time the 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.3 range. 2. Weekday rule for the 192.168.1.4 to 192.168.1.15 range. 3. Weekend rule for the 192.168.1.4 to 192.168.1.15 range. 4. Deny all for all IPs and protocols etc. Do not forget to put the rules in both inbound and outbound policies and in the order above. Also do them for all protocols and ports. |

| 512637 | 2007-01-07 04:09:00 | You can keep the DCHP on as long as you put the correct ip range into rules. The order of the rules is VERY important and the last rule will stop all other IP addresses from working. There are up / down buttons that you can use to change the order of the rules. The first rule could be made to suite the number of any time addresses you wont and do not forget to include the ip address of the router! Do not forget that if anyone can change the IP address of the PC they are using they could still bypass the time restricted rules. If you wanted to be very strict you could only allow port 80 for the restricted rules, i.e. HTTP only. |
