Step 5: Power ON.
Step 6: Prepare a USB Storage and then plug into the USB port.
1. Introduction
1.6 Wireless Operation Modes
1.6.1 AP Router (Default Setting)
In this mode, you can share your 3G Internet connection and/or broadband connection. If
you do not have a 3G USB dongle, you can still share your ADSL modem, xDSL mdoem,
or Cable Modem connections. If you have both 3G and Broadband, you can use both for
connection backup.
1.6.2 AP Only
When operating in the Access Point mode, the N450R becomes the center hub of the
wireless network. All wireless cards and clients connect and communicate through N450R.
This type of network is known as “Infrastructure Network”. Other N450R can connect to
AP mode through “Adapter Mode”.
1.6.3 WDS Repeater
In WDS Repeater mode, the N450R functions as a repeater that extends the range of
remote wireless LAN. In this mode, the remote Access Point must have WDS (Wireless
Distribution System) capability. If you require the PC’s MAC addresses to be preserved
when the data pass thr ough the Re peater, i t is necessary to use the WDS R epeater mode.
Because the radio is divided into WDS + AP mode, the Repeater mode will have less
performance and dista nce.
AirLive N450R User’s Manual
Page 15
1. Introduction

1.6.4 WDS Only
This mode is also known as “WDS Pure MAC Bridge mode”. When configured to
operate in the W ireless Distribution System (WDS) Mode, the N450R provides bridging
functions with remote LAN networks in the WDS system. Each bridge can only associate
with maximum of 4 other bridges in the W DS configuration. This mode is best used when
you want to connect LAN networks together wirelessly. This mode usually delivers faster
performance than infrastructure mode.
1.6.5 Adapter Mode
This mode is also known as “Client” mode. N450r acts as if it is a wireless adapter to
connect with a remote Access Point. Users can attach a computer or a router to the LAN
port of N450R to get network access. This mode is often used by WISP on the
subscriber’s side.

Network ID is used for identifying the W ireless LAN (WLAN). Client stations can roam
freely over this device and other Access Points that have the same Network ID. (The
factory default setting is “airlive2.4g”)
6. SSID Broadcast

Open system authentication simply consists of two communications. The first is an
authentication request by the client that contains the station ID (typically the MAC
address). This is followed by an authentication response from the AP/router containing a
success or failure message. An example of when a failure may occur is if the client's MAC
address is explicitly excluded in the AP/router configuration.
(B) Shared
Shared key authentication relies on the fact that both stations taking part in the
authentication process have the same "shared" key or passphrase. The shared key is
manually set on both the client station and the AP/router. Three types of shared key
authentication are available today for home or small office WLAN environments.

5. Authentication
You may select one of authentication to secure your wireless network: Open, Shared,
Auto, WPA-PSK, WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2, WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK, or WPA /WPA2.
(A) Open
Open system authentication simply consists of two communications. The first is an
authentication request by the client that contains the station ID (typically the MAC
address). This is followed by an authentication response from the AP/router containing a
success or failure message. An example of when a failure may occur is if the client's MAC
address is explicitly excluded in the AP/router configuration.
(B) Shared
Shared key authentication relies on the fact that both stations taking part in the
authentication process have the same "shared" key or passphrase. The shared key is
manually set on both the client station and the AP/router. Three types of shared key
authentication are available today for home or small office WLAN environments.
(C) Auto
The AP will Select the Open or Shared by the client’s request automatically.

4. Enable Flexible Bandwidth management
If you enable this management, system will share the bandwidth of those selected
applications to other applications if user do not run those selected application, for
example, If you select Game/ VoIP/ Video 3 applications for higher priority in your
system, then the system will automatically reserve 10% of bandwidth to other
application, and share the rest of bandwidth (100-10)/3=30% each to
Game/VoIP/Video, so if user do not play a game, then the system will flexible share
the 30% of bandwidth to other application.

5. Example for Smart-QoS with FBM enable
Mr. Wang selects Game/ VoIP/ Video 3 applications for higher priority in his system,
the system will automatically reserve 10% of minimum rate of bandwidth to other
application, and share the rest minimum rate of bandwidth (100-10)/3=30% each to
Game/VoIP/Video. If Mr. Wang’s son plays on-line game in the morning, the total
bandwidth will all reserve to his son. By the evening, when Mr. Wang back home and
wants to watch IPTV, then he will get the same priority with his son, and sha re the

3.5.9 VLAN
The VLAN function allows you to divide local network into different “virtual LAN”. In some
cases, ISP may need router to support “VLAN tag ” for c ertain kinds of services (e.g. IPTV)
to work properly.
There are four LAN por t s w ith thi s router , so y ou ca n have u p to 4 VLAN if requi red. Thos e
four LAN ports belong to one VLAN by default. If you want to divi de them into different
VLAN, you just need to assign different “VID” for them. If ISP requests a “VLAN Tag” with
your outgoing data, please remember to check the checkbox of “Tx TAG”.

2. Beacon Interval
The device broadcasts beacon frames regularly to announce its existence. The
beacon Interval specifies how often beacon frames are transmitted in time unit of
milliseconds. The default value is 100, and a valid value should be between 1 and
1000.
3. Transmit Power
4. RTS Threshold
RTS/CTS frames are used to g ain contr ol of the m edium for transmi ssion. Any unicast
(data or control) frames larger than specified RTS threshold must be transmitted
following the RTS/CTS handshake exchange mechanism. The RTS threshold should
have a value between 256-2347 bytes, with a default of 2347. It is recommended that
this value does not deviate from the defaul t t o o much.
5. Fragmentation
When the size of a unicast frame exceeds the fragmentation threshold, it will be
fragmented before the transmission. It should have a value of 256-2346 bytes, with a
default of 2346. If you experience a high packet error rate, you should slightly
decrease the Fragmentation Threshold.
3. Configuration
6. DTIM interval
The AIRMAX5 buffers packets for stations that operate in the power-saving mode.
The Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) informs such power-conserving
stations that there are packets waiting to be received by them. The DTIM interval
specifies how often the beacon frame should contain DTIMs. It should have a value
between 1 to 255, with a default value of 3.
7. WMM Capable
Enable or disable WMM Capable.
8. TX Rates
You can adjust the transmit output power of the N450R. The higher the output power,
the larger coverage N450R can deliver. However, it is advised that you use just
enough output power so it will not create excessive interference for the environment.
Also, using too much power at close distance can create serious performance drop
due to signal distortion.
