This screen is only required if your LAN has other Routers or Gateways. Normally, you should use RIP. You need to understand the principles of routing in order to use the static routing table.

RIP

Enable RIP V1

Check this to enable the RIP (Routing Information Protocol) feature of the Wireless Router. The Wireless Router supports RIP 1 only.
