Welcome to AnandTech's Networking Forum.

The Siemens C2110 is a Modem/Router.

The menus to change the Router setting should be accessed by typing in to the Internet Browser.

default password--- admin

As for WAN ping may be you should explain further what your concern is?

Thanks for reply.

Actually I want to prevent my net from hacker.
My broadband is BSNL DataOne (India),it has very low security.
Anyone can hack my PC while accessing net and will get my id & password.
This kind of things already happened to some of my friends.
So,I need some tips or suggestions.....

Add Good Software Firewall, AntiVirus, And Anti Spyware to each computer.

Buy another switch or router and increase the security on there.
