  • Page 40: Wireless

    4.2.3 Wireless This section introduces the wireless LAN and some basic configurations. Wireless LANs can be as simple as two computers with wireless LAN cards communicating in a peer-to-peer network or as complex as a number of computers with wireless LAN cards communicating through access points which bridge network traffic to the wired LAN.
  • Page 41 Access Point Settings Access Point: Default setting is set to Activated. If you do not have any wireless device in your network, select Deactivated. Channel ID: The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless devices is called a channel.
  • Page 42 the bandwidth the better the performance will be. Guard Interval: Select either Auto or 800nsec for the guard interval. The guard interval is here to ensure that data transmission do not interfere with each other, it also prevents propagation delays, echoing and reflections.
  • Page 43 without any data encryption Key 1 to Key 4: Enter the key to encrypt wireless data. To allow encrypted data transmission, the WEP Encryption Key values on all wireless stations must be the same as the router. There are four keys for your selection.
  • Page 44 Radius Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) is a networking protocol that provides centralized Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) management for computers to connect and use a network service.

  • Page 46: Advanced Setup

    4.3 Advanced Setup 4.3.1 Firewall Your router includes a firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN and helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, since all PCs on your LAN use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet.
  • Page 47: Routing

    4.3.2 Routing If you have another router with a LAN-to-LAN connection, you may create a static routing on the router that is the gateway to Internet. #: Item number Dest IP: IP address of the destination network Mask: The destination mask address. Here mask refers to the number of the amount of ‘1’ in submask, it is the length of net-id.
  • Page 48 ADD Route Destination IP Address: This is the destination subnet IP address. IP Subnet Mask: A subnet mask allows IP networks to be subdivided for security and performance purposes. Gateway IP Address: This is the gateway IP address to which packets are to be forwarded. Metric: It represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes.
  • Page 49: Nat

    4.3.3 NAT The NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address of a host in a packet. The default setting is Dynamic NAT. It provides dynamic Network Address Translation capability between LAN and multiple WAN connections, and the LAN traffic is routed to appropriate WAN connections based on the destination IP addresses and Route Table.
  • Page 50 The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets will be checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms then passed to the DMZ host, when a packet received does not use a port number used by any other Virtual Server entries.
  • Page 51 The reason for this is that when using NAT, your publicly accessible IP address will be used by and point to your router, which then needs to deliver all traffic to the private IP addresses used by your PCs. Please see the WAN configuration section of this manual for more information on NAT. The device can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing services such as Web or FTP services via the public (WAN) IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN network.
  • Page 52 Start Port Number: Enter a port number as the beginning number of the range which you want to give to devices to access in this field. End Port Number: Enter a port number as the end number of the range which you want to give to devices to access in this field.
  • Page 53 IP Address Mapping Address Mapping Rule: Shows the PVC where the rule will be applied to. Rule Index: Choose the rule number. Rule Type: One-to-one: This is the mode maps one local IP address to one global IP address. Note that port numbers do not change for the One-to-one NAT mapping type.
  • Page 54 N/A for Server port mapping. Local End IP: This is the end range for Inside Local IP Address (ILA). If your rule is for all local IP addresses, then enter 0.0.0.0 as the Local Start IP address and 255.255.255.255 as the Local End IP address.
  • Page 55: Qos

    4.3.4 QoS Quality of Service (QoS) helps to prioritize data as it enters your router. By attaching special identification marks or headers to incoming packets, QoS determines which queue the packets enter, based on priority. This is useful when there are certain types of data you want to give higher priority to, such as voice data packets given higher priority than Web data packets.
  • Page 56 Rule You can set 16 different QoS rules. Each QoS rule has its detail setting conditions like: 802.1p application, DSCP, IP, MAC, Protocol, TOS, VLAN etc, you can modify the default value to any new one you wish. Please notice that only when the packet fulfill every detail setting conditions here, then this packet will be remarked as the priority queue of each rule.
  • Page 57 Destination MAC: Set the Ethernet MAC value that you want to filter in destination side. IP: Set the IP address value that you want to filter in destination side. Mask: Set the subnet mask value that you want to filter in destination side. Range: Set the port range value that you want to filter in destination side.
  • Page 58: Adsl

    4.3.5 ADSL ADSL Mode: The default setting is Auto Sync-Up. This mode will automatically detect your ADSL2, ADSL2+, ADSL2, G.DMT, G.lite, and T1.413. But in some area, multimode cannot detect the ADSL line code well. If it is the case, please adjust the ADSL line code to G.DMT or T1.413 first. If it still fails, please try the other values such as ALCTL, ADI, etc.
