This page lets you set up static routes to connect machines not on the router's local network. For example, if you haven't changed the router's IP address from 192.168.1.x, a machine whose address does not have 1 as the third number is not on the local network.
The page looks like this when no static routes have been defined:
Destination: The IP address of the remote computer for which to set a static route.
Subnet Mask: The subnet mask of the remote network for which to set a static route.
Gateway: The WAN IP address of the gateway to the remote network.
WAN Interface: The WAN interface of the router to the remote network.

To define a static route, click Add. Another page opens:
Destination: Enter the IP address of the remote computer for which to set a static route.
Subnet Mask: Enter the subnet mask of the remote network for which to set a static route.
Use gateway IP address: Select this option to manually enter the address of the gateway to the remote network.
Use interface: Select this option to use an interface, then select the interface.
