 Gateway – the device works as an usual home router with activated NAT (Network Address

Translation) function, all devices connected to LAN network have access to the network through single IP
address, assigned to WAN port. Following modes are accessible: DHCP client, Static IP, PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP.

 Bridge –in this mode all Ethernet ports and wireless interfaces work in a single network, NAT function

is off. WAN port settings and Firewall is not available.

 Connection to the provider via wireless network (WISP) - In this mode one of the Wi-Fi modules (2,4

GHz or 5GHz) proceeds to client mode, connects to provider’s wireless network and operates like WAN port.

— Fragment Threshold – maximal size of continuous data block for its transmission via wireless

network. The data of larger size will divided into parts — fragmented; takes values from 256 to
2346;

— RTS Threshold – maximal requested size of data for transmission. In CSMA/CA technology RTS

packets (request to send) are sent to the base station before transmission of real data. If a free
window is available, the base responds with CTS packet (clear to send) and the client sends he
packet of requested size. The less RTS size is, the more is the probability to receive permission
from base station, the quicker is the network recovery after collisions, but the less is the
performance of the network as a whole. Takes values from 0 tо 2347;

— Beacon Interval – time interval between service messages (beaconing) in wireless network. Service

messages transmit parameters of frequencies, protocols, safety, transmitted powers, delays etc.
Takes values from 20 to 1024;

— IAPP – IAPP protocol (Inter-Access Point Protocol) allows to use roaming of clients between

multiple access points within one network segment;

— Protection – is a special mechanism for 802.11 b/g networks. Activation of the mechanism secures

the performance of slow devices of b standard in the media with multiple high-speed devices of g
standard. It is reached by increase of service time of old clients, assigning lower RTS window for
them, decreasing general network performance;

— Aggregation – includes possibility of unifying some little packets for transmission in one big packet;
— Short GI – mean of decrease errors by interaction of radio devices — empty interval between

transmitted sixteen-digit symbols (0,1,...E,F). Standard long guard interval (Long GI) lasts 800ns. It
is considered that a signal approaches the receiver during the time considering all delays and
reflections. Upon expiration of this interval, the next symbol is transmitted. Short GI lasts 400ns.
Use of short GI increases general wireless network performance by approximately 11%, but leads
sometimes to increase of transmission/receiving errors;

— WLAN Partition – activation of restriction to interact for wireless clients with each other;
— STBC – activation of Space Time Block Coding (STBC) mechanism, is used in wireless networks for

transmission of data flow copies via multiple aerials and for securing receipt of different versions of
data block for increase of data exchange durability. It is known that radio signal is spread in the
media according to complex traces and exposed to reflection, refraction, dissemination, as well as
aberration through heat noise of the receiver, which finally leads to the situation when one copies
of transmitted signal may occur as sufficiently better (less distorted) than the others. This
redundancy increases probability to decode the signal correctly from some of its copies at
receiving side. STBC technology unites all copies of received data block optimally for retrieval
maximal information from each of them;

— LDPC – use of correcting code with Low-density parity-check code (LDPC), which allows to detect

and correct possible errors at signal transmission via wireless interface more effective;

— TX Beamforming – a technology, providing formation of electromagnetic fields of basic station

aerial in far-filed region as narrow-band remote lobe, directed to subscriber device with possibility
of change of directed features by change in position of this equipment;

— Multicast to Unicast – allows to transmit a Unicast stream to wireless Multicast devices, provided

that UDP2HTTP option in WAN interface settings is switched on;

— RF Output Power – adjustment of access point signal strength in per cents from maximal level.

WPS function may be deactivated for each frequency range separately.

Using WPS terms, the device can have two statuses:

— Configured – access point (at least for one frequency range) is configured – it means that network

name encryption parameters and other parameters are set;

— Unconfigured – access point in both frequency ranges is not configured – it means that all Wi-Fi

parameters have default settings.

Depending on access point status some WPS functions may be blocked.

configured). When connecting from ‘Configured’ status the client receives the network name and
encryption parameters set on the device. When connecting from ‘Unconfigured’ status, the device
generates and assigns network name and encryption parameters for the client automatically. After
pushing PBC button, WPS function is active within two minutes;

PPTP and L2TP protocols are used for establishment of protected communication cannel via Internet
between the computer of remote user and Ethernet of its organization. PPTP and L2TP are based on Point-to­Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) and are their extensions. Upper level data of OSI model are initially
capsulated into PPP, and then into PPTP or L2TP for tunnel transmission through common networks. The
functional capabilities of PPTP and L2TP are different. L2TP can be used not only in IP networks, service messages
for tunnel creation and data transmission through it use the same format and protocols. PPTP can be applied in
IP-networks only, and separate TCP connection is necessary for it for creation and use of the tunnel.
