11 4.4 Operation Mode This parameter specifies the operating network modes for the Router. This router provides three modes: Gateway Mode, Bridge Mode and Wireless ISP. You could refer to the following description to choose the right one. 1. Wireless ISP Client Router In this mode, it will wirelessly connect to WISP station/hotspot to share Internet to local wireless and wired network. 2. Wireless Client In this mode, all Ethernet ports are bridged together and the wireless client will connect to ISP access point. The NAT is enabled and PCs in Ethernet ports share the same IP to ISP through wireless LAN. You can connect to the ISP AP in Site-Survey page. The connection type can be setup in WAN page by using PPPOE, DHCP client, PPTP client, L2TP client or static IP. 3. Repeater (Range Extender) In this mode, the device can copy and reinforce the existing wireless signal to extend the coverage of the signal, especially for a large space to eliminate signal-blind corners. It is good for extending your existing wireless coverage by relaying wireless signal. 4. Router In this mode, the device enables multi-users to share Internet via ADSL/Cable Modem. The Wireless port share the same IP to ISP through Ethernet WAN port .The Wireless port acts the same as a LAN port while at AP Router mode. The connection type can be setup in WAN page by using PPPOE, DHCP client, PPTP client, L2TP client or static IP. 5. Bridge with AP In this mode, the device can be used to combine multiple local networks together to the same one via wireless connections, especially for a home or office where separated networks can’t be connected easily together with a cable. 6. Client In this mode, the device can be connected to another device via Ethernet port and act as a "Wireless Adapter" to connect your wired device to a wireless network.
12 4.5 Network 4.5.1 WAN Settings This part allows you to configure the WAN port parameters so that your computer can access Internet. Enable UPNP: the UPNP (Universal Plug and play) protocol is supported to bring to network connected devices the ease of installation and configuration which is already available for directly connected PC peripherals with the existing Windows “Plug and Play” system. You can enable this function so that the router doesn’t need to work out which port need to be opened. Enable IGMP Proxy: IGMP is the abbreviation of Internet Group Management Protocol. It is a communication protocol which is mainly used for managing the membership of Internet Protocol multicast groups. If you select this checkbox, the application of multicast will be executed through WAN port. In addition, such function is available in NAT mode. Enable Ping Access on WAN: enable users use Ping command to access WAN. Enable Web Server Access on WAN: enable users to access Web Server on WAN.
13 Enable IPsec pass through on VPN connection: IPsec pass through is a technique for allowing IPsec packets to pass through a NAT router. Enable PPTP pass through on VPN connection: PPTP pass through is a technique for allowing PPTP packets to pass through a NAT router. Enable L2TP pass through on VPN connection: L2TP pass through is a technique for allowing L2TP packets to pass through a NAT router. Clone MAC Address: MAC address is the physical address of your computer’s network card. Generally, every network card has one unique Mac address. Since many ISPs only allow one computer in LAN to access Internet, users can enable this function to make more computers surf Internet. 4.5.1.1 Static IP If your ISP has provided the fixed IP that allows you to access Internet, please choose this option. IP Address: the IP address provided by your ISP. Subnet Mask: This is used to define the device IP classification for the chosen IP address range. 255.255.255.0 is a typical net mask value for Class C networks. Generally it is provided by your ISP. Default Gateway: This is the IP address of the host router that resides on the external network and provides the point of connection to the next hop towards the Internet. This can
14 be a DSL modem, Cable modem, or a WISP gateway router. The router will direct all the packets to the gateway if the destination host is not within the local network. MTU: it means Max Transmit Unit for packet. When using slow links, large packets can cause some delays thereby increasing lag and latency. DNS: The Domain Name System (DNS) is an Internet “phone book”, which translates domain names to IP addresses. These fields identify the server IP addresses where the DNS requested are forwarded by this router. 4.5.1.2 DHCP Client Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a local area network protocol. If you choose this mode, you will get a dynamic IP address from your ISP automatically. Host Name: the name of your computer, online neighbors will identify the computer according to the name. MTU: it means Max Transmit Unit for packet. When using slow links, large packets can cause some delays thereby increasing lag and latency. DNS: Domain Name System. Every Internet host must have a unique IP address, also they may have a human-friendly, easy to remember name such as www.yahoo.com. The DNS server converts the user-friendly name into its equivalent IP address. 4.5.1.3 PPPoE Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a virtual private and secure connection between two systems that enables encapsulated data transport. Select PPPoE option if ISP provides a PPPoE connection. You should enter the following parameters.
15 User Name/Password: enter the User Name and Password provided by your ISP. Service Name (AC): this is optional. It describes the service name your ISP provided to you. Generally, leaving these fields blank will work. DNS: Domain Name System. If you select Set DNS Manually, you will have to type in the DNS address by yourself. It is chosen to Attain DNS by default. Connection Type: provides three modes to connect to the Internet.  Continuous: the connection can be re-established automatically.  Connection on demand: the Internet connection can be terminated automatically after a specified inactivity period (idle time).  Manual: you can click Connect or Disconnect button to connect/disconnect immediately. Idle Time: it is a term which generally refers to a lack of motion or energy. MTU: it means Max Transmit Unit for packet. When using slow links, large packets can cause some delays thereby increasing lag and latency. 4.5.1.4 PPTP You should select PPTP option if ISP provides a PPTP connection and enter the following
16 parameters. Please refer to PPPoE configuration if there are the same parameters. MPPE: You can enable MPPE Encryption or MPPC compression here. MPPE provides link encryption. Link encryption encrypts data as it passes between the calling and answering routers. MPPC provides a method to negotiate and utilize compression protocols over PPP encapsulated links. WAN DHCP type: it’s available only for PPTP connection. If your ISP provides an extra type to connect to a local area network such as DHCP Client/Static IP, you should select the type and enter the right parameters provided by ISP to enable the secondary connection. DNS Type: If you select Set DNS Manually, you will have to type in the DNS address by yourself. It is chosen to Attain DNS by default while you select the DHCP client mode. Besides, it is Set DNS type while you select the Static IP. 4.5.1.5 L2TP You should select L2TP option if ISP provides a L2TP connection and enter the following
17 parameters. Please refer to PPPoE configuration if there are the same parameters. 4.5.2 LAN Settings Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of subnets regulated and ruled by router. The design of network structure is related to what type of public IP addresses coming from your ISP. This part allows you to configure the parameters for LAN which connects to the LAN port of your Access Point.
18 IP Address: This is the IP addresses to be represented by the LAN (including WLAN) interface that is connected to the internal network. This IP will be used for the routing of the internal network (it will be the Gateway IP for all the devices connected on the internal network). Subnet Mask: This is used to define the device IP classification for the chosen IP address range. 255.255.255.0 is a typical netmask value for Class C networks which support IP address range from 192.0.0.x to 223.255.255.x. Class C network netmask uses 24 bits to identify the network and 8 bits to identify the host. Default Gateway: This is the IP address of the host router that resides on the external network and provides the point of connection to the next hop towards the Internet. This can be a DSL modem, Cable modem, or a WISP gateway router. The router will direct all the packets to the gateway if the destination host is not within the local network. DHCP: You can disable or enable DHCP Server here. DHCP Client Range: the range of IP addresses that will be assigned to each computer connected with the router. DHCP Lease Time: the IP addresses given out by the DHCP server will only be valid for the duration specified by the lease time. Increasing the time ensure client operation without interrupt, but could introduce potential conflicts. Lowering the lease time will avoid potential address conflicts, but might cause more slight interruptions to the client while it will acquire new IP addresses from the DHCP server. The time is expressed in seconds. Domain name: this represents the name of your IP address. 4.5.3 Static DHCP Settings It allows you to reserve IP addresses and assign the same IP address to the network device with the specified MAC address any time it requests an IP address.
19 4.5.4 VLAN Settings VLAN means Virtual Local Area Network, this function provides you a very convenient way to manage hosts by grouping them based on the physical port. You can also manage the in/out rate of each port. VLANs are created to provide the segmentation services traditionally provided by routers. VLANs address issues such as scalability, security, and network management.
20 Enabled: this option enables VLAN function. Ethernet/Wireless: specifies the WAN port and wireless AP. WAN/LAN: defines the WAN port or LAN port. Forwarding Rule: VLAN feature also support forwarding rule as bridge and NAT between LAN port and WAN port. Tag: enable the function of VLAN with tag. The router will add specific VLAN number to all packets on the LAN while sending them out. Please type the tag value and specify the priority for the packets sending by LAN. VID: type the value as the VLAN ID number. The range is from 1 to 4090. Priority: Type the packet priority number for such VLAN. The range is from 0 to 7. CFI: enable the CFI function which indicates whether MAC is encapsulated by standard format. After the VLAN settings, please click Apply to finish TCP/IP Settings. When you choose Triple Play, this configuration page is shown below
21 4.6 Wireless 5GHZ 4.6.1 Basic Settings On this page, you could configure the parameters for Wireless LAN client that may connect to your Access Point. Since we have discussed wireless settings on Setup Wizard, here we will focus on the encryption, WMM function and Data Rate. Encryption: This router supports Disabled, WEP, WPA, WPA2, WPA-Mixed security options. By default, it is disabled. Please select one according to the Access Point security policy for a secure network.
22 1) WEP WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is based on the IEEE 802.11 standard and uses the RC4 encryption algorithm. Enabling WEP allows you to increase security by encryption data being transferred over your wireless network. WEP is the oldest security algorithm, and there are few applications that can decrypt the WEP key in less than 10 minutes. Key Length: 64-bit/128-bit, by default it is 64-bit. 64-bit—For 64 bits WEP key, either 5 ASCII characters, such as 12345 (or 10 hexadecimal digitals leading by 0x, such as 0x414234445.) 128-bit—For 128 bits WEP key, either 13 ASCII characters, such as ABCDEFGHIJKLM (or 26 hexadecimal digits leading by 0x, such as 0x4142434445464748494A4B4C4D). Key Format: If you choose 64 bit, there will be two Key Formats selectable: ASCII (5 characters) and Hex (10 characters). If 128-bit, the Key Formats should comply with ASCII (13 characters) or Hex (26 characters) Encryption Key: Please refer to Key Length to set this parameter. 2) 802.1x Authentication WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is separated into two categories: WPA/PSK and WPA/802.1x. If you choose 802.1x Authentication, you will have to provide the RADIUS Server IP Address, Port and Password so that the encryption key will be obtained dynamically from RADIUS server.
23 RADIUS Server IP Address: Enter the IP address of RADIUS server. RADIUS Server Port: the UDP port number that the RADIUS server that is used to authenticate the messages sent between them. RADIUS Server Password: enter the password. RADIUS: Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a security authentication client/server protocol that supports authentication, authorization and accounting, which is widely used by Internet Service Provider. It is the most common method of authenticating and authorizing dial-up and tunneled network users. 3) WPA/WPA2 Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is the most dominating security mechanism in industry. It is separated into two categories: WPA-personal or called WPA Pre-Share Key (WPA/PSK), and WPA-Enterprise or called WPA/802.1x. WPA2 means Wi-Fi Protected Access 2, it is the current most secure method of wireless security and required for 802.11n performance. TKIP--Temporal Key Integrity Protocol is one cipher for data encryption supported by WPA. AES--Advanced Encryption Standard is another cipher for data encryption supported by WPA. Pre-Shared Key Format/Pre-Shared Key: This is a pre-defined key used for encryption during data transmission. It has two formats: Passphrase and Hex (64 characters). Then you need to enter the Pre-Shared Key, either 8~63 ASCII characters, such as 012345678 (or 64 Hexadecimal digits leading by 0x, such as “0x321253abcde…”). 4) WPA Mixed This option mixes WPA/WPA2 together. It will provide the best security for your router.
24 Enable Universal Repeater Mode: enable the repeater mode and search for wireless networks in range on all the supported channels while device is operating in Access Point. 4.6.2 Wireless AP1 This page allows you to setup wireless encryption to protect your wireless network from unauthorized access. Encryption: This router supports WEP, WPA, WPA2, WPA-Mixed security options. Please select one according to the Access Point security policy. Note: Since WEP has been proved vulnerable, you may consider using WPA2 for the most secure connection. You should select the appropriate security mechanism according to your needs. No matter which security suite you select, they all will enhance the over-the-air data protection and/or privacy on your wireless network.
