devices in the same wireless LAN should have the same ESSID.
Channel The channel used by the wireless LAN. All devices in the same
wireless LAN should use the same channel. When ‘Auto’ is selected the router
will automatically determine which wireless channel is most suitable.
Page: 30
34
Advanced Settings
This tab allows you to set the advanced wireless options. The options included
are Authentication Type, Fragment Threshold, RTS Threshold, Beacon
Interval, and Preamble Type. You should not change these parameters unless
you know what effect the changes will have on the router.
Authentication Type There are two authentication types: "Open System"
and "Shared Key". When you select "Open System", wireless stations can
associate with this wireless router without WEP encryption. When you select
"Shared Key", you should also setup a WEP key in the "Encryption" page.
After this has been done, make sure the wireless clients that you want to
connect to the device are also setup with the same encryption key.
Fragment Threshold "Fragment Threshold" specifies the maximum size of a
packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted. If you set this
value too low, it will result in bad performance.
RTS Threshold When the packet size is smaller then the RTS threshold, the
wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet.
Page: 31
35
Beacon Interval is the interval of time that this wireless router broadcasts a
beacon. A Beacon is used to synchronize the wireless network.
Data Rate The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit
data packets. The access point will use the highest possible selected
transmission rate to transmit the data packets.
N Data Rate The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to
transmit data packets for N compliant wireless nodes. Highest to lowest data
rate can be fixed.
Channel Bandwidth is the range of frequencies that will be used.
Preamble Type The “Long Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN
compatibility while the “Short Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN
performance.
CTS Protection: It is recommended to enable the protection mechanism.
This mechanism can decrease the rate of data collision between 802.11b and
802.11g wireless stations. When the protection mode is enabled, the
throughput of the AP will be a little lower due to a lot of frame-network that is
transmitted.
TX Power can be set to a bare minimum or maximum power.
Page: 32
36
Security
This Access Point provides complete wireless LAN security functions, included
are WEP, IEEE 802.11x, IEEE 802.11x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared key
and WPA with RADIUS. With these security functions, you can prevent your
wireless LAN from illegal access. Please make sure your wireless stations use
the same security function, and are setup with the same security key.
SSID Selection Here you choose the SSID for which you wish to set the
security.
Broadcast ESSID If you enabled “Broadcast ESSID”, every wireless station
located within the coverage of this access point can discover this access point
easily. If you are building a public wireless network, enabling this feature is
recommended. Disabling “Broadcast ESSID” can provide better security.
WMM WiFi Multi Media if enabled supports QoS for experiencing better audio,
video and voice in applications.
Page: 33
37
Disable
When you choose to disable encryption, it is very insecure to operate the
router.
Page: 34
38
Enable 802.1x Auth
IEEE 802.1x is an authentication protocol. Every user must use a valid
account to login to this Access Point before accessing the wireless LAN. The
authentication is processed by a RADIUS server. This mode only authenticates
users by IEEE 802.1x, but it does not encrypt the data during communication.
Page: 35
39
WEP
When you select 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key, you have to enter WEP keys to
encrypt data. You can generate the key by yourself and enter it. You can
enter four WEP keys and select one of them as a default key. Then the router
can receive any packets encrypted by one of the four keys.
Key Length You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-
bit. The larger the key will be the higher level of security is used, but the
throughput will be lower.
Key Format You may select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or
Hexadecimal Digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key.
Key1 - Key4 The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the
wireless network. Use the following rules to setup a WEP key on the device.
64-bit WEP: input 10-digits Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or
5-digit ASCII character as the encryption keys. 128-bit WEP: input 26-digit
Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 13-digit ASCII characters
as the encryption keys.

frequently. So the encryption key is not easy to be cracked by hackers. This is
the best security available.
Page: 37
41
WPA-Radius
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use
an external RADIUS server to authenticate wireless stations and provide the
session key to encrypt data during communication. It uses TKIP or CCMP
(AES) to change the encryption key frequently. Press Apply button when you
are done.

13 Firewall Settings
The Broadband router provides extensive firewall protection by restricting
connection parameters, thus limiting the risk of hacker attacks, and defending
against a wide array of common Internet attacks. However, for applications that
require unrestricted access to the Internet, you can configure a specific
client/server as a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).
Note: To enable the Firewall settings select Enable and click Apply
Page: 42
46
DMZ
If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application (e.g. Games)
properly from behind the NAT firewall, then you can open up the firewall
restrictions to unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining a DMZ Host.
The DMZ function allows you to re-direct all packets going to your WAN port
IP address to a particular IP address in your LAN. The difference between the
virtual server and the DMZ function is that the virtual server re-directs a
particular service/Internet application (e.g. FTP, websites) to a particular LAN
client/server, whereas DMZ re-directs all packets (regardless of services)
going to your WAN IP address to a particular LAN client/server.
Enable DMZ Enable/disable DMZ
Public IP Address The IP address of the WAN port or any other Public IP
addresses given to you by your ISP
Client PC IP Address Fill-in the IP address of a particular host in your LAN
that will receive all the packets originally going to the WAN port/Public IP
address above.
Click <Apply> at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations.
Page: 43

Denial of Service (DoS)
The Broadband router's firewall can block common hacker attacks, including
Denial of Service, Ping of Death, Port Scan and Sync Flood. If Internet attacks
occur the router can log the events.
Ping of Death Protections from Ping of Death attack
Discard Ping From WAN The router’s WAN port will not respond to any Ping
requests
Port Scan Protects the router from Port Scans.
Sync Flood Protects the router from Sync Flood attack.

Use the Virtual Server function when you want different servers/clients in
your LAN to handle different service/Internet application type (e.g. Email,
FTP, Web server etc.) from the Internet. Computers use numbers called port
numbers to recognize a particular service/Internet application type. The
Virtual Server allows you to re-direct a particular service port number (from
the Internet/WAN Port) to a particular LAN private IP address and its service
port number.
