DDNS (Dynamic DNS) is an IP-to-Hostname mapping service for those Internet users who
don’t have a static (fixed) IP address. It will be a problem when such users want to provide
services to other users on Internet, because their IP address will vary every time when
connected to Internet. Thus other users will not be able to know the IP address they’re using
at a certain time.
This router supports DDNS service of several service providers, for example:
DynDNS (http://www.dyndns.org)
TZO (http://www.tzo.com)
Please go to one of DDNS service provider’s webpage listed above, and get a free DDNS

2-6 Wired LAN Configurations
Before all computers using wired Ethernet connection (i.e. those computers connected to this
router’s LAN port 1 to 4 by Ethernet cable) can communicate with each other and access internet,
they must have a valid IP address. There are two ways to assign IP addresses to computers: static IP
address (set the IP address for every computer manually), and dynamic IP address (IP address of
computers will be assigned by router automatically). It’s recommended for most of computers to use
dynamic IP address, it will save a lot of time on setting IP addresses for every computer, especially
when there are a lot of computers in your network; for servers and network devices which will
provide services to other computer and users that come from Internet, static IP address should be
used, so that other computes can locate the server.
Suggestions on IP address numbering plan:
If you have no idea on how to define an IP address plan for your network, here are
some suggestions.
1. A valid IP address has 4 fields: a.b.c.d, for most of home and company users, it’s
suggested to use 192.168.c.d, where c is an integer between 0 and 254, and d is
an integer between 1 and 254. This router is capable to work with up to 253
clients, so you can set ‘d’ field of IP address of router as 1 or 254 (or any number
between 1 and 254), and pick a number between 0 and 254 for field ‘c’.
2. In most cases, you should use ‘255.255.255.0’ as subnet mask, which allows up
clients).
3. For all servers and network devices which will provide services to other people
(like Internet service, print service, and file service), they should use static IP
address. Give each of them a unique number between 1 and 253, and maintain a
list, so everyone can locate those servers easily.
4. For computers which are not dedicated to provide specific service to others, they
should use dynamic IP address.
If you don’t really understand the descriptions listed above, don’t worry! We will
provide recommended setup values below.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the simplest way to build secure connection between

and input a long encryption passphrase every time when you need to setup a wireless client,
you only have to press a button on wireless client and this wireless router, and the WPS will
do the rest for you.
This wireless router supports two types of WPS: Push-Button Configuration (PBC) and PIN
code. If you want to use PBC, you have to push a specific button on the wireless client to
start WPS mode, and switch this wireless router to WPS mode too. You can push
Reset/WPS button of this wireless router, or click ‘Start PBC’ button in the web
configuration interface to do this; if you want to use PIN code, you have to know the PIN

2-7-6 Security Tips for Wireless Network
Here are some quick tips to help you improve the security level of your wireless network:
1. Never use simple words (like school, apple and computer) as WEP encryption or WPA
passphrase.
2. A complicated (the combination of number, alphabet, even symbol and long enough)
WEP key and WPA passphrase is much safer than simple and short ones. Remember that
the wireless client is capable to keep the key or passphrase for you, so you only have to
input the complicated key or passphrase once. It’s not too tedious and will greatly
improve security level.
3. You can hide the ESSID of this router by setting ‘Broadcast ESSID’ option to ‘Disable’.
Your wireless router will not be found by other people in proximity if they’re just using
the AP scanning function of their wireless client, and this can reduce the chance of being
intruded.
4. Use ‘Access Control’ function described in section 2-7-4, so those MAC address which
are not in your list will not be able to connect to your network.

3-1 Quality of Service (QoS)
Quality of service provides an efficient way for computers on the network to share the
internet bandwidth with a promised quality of internet service. Without QoS, all computers
and devices on the network will compete with each other to get internet bandwidth, and
some applications which require guaranteed bandwidth (like video streaming and network
telephone) will be affected, therefore an unpleasing result will occur, like the interruption of
video / audio transfer.
With this function, you can limit the maximum bandwidth or give a guaranteed bandwidth
for a specific computer, to avoid said unpleasing result from happening.
