Wireless Repeating Function (WDS)
You can set the N600 Wireless Dual Band Router up to be used as a wireless access point (AP). Doing this enables the router to act as a wireless repeater. A wireless repeater connects to another wireless router as a client where the network to which it connects becomes the ISP service.
Wireless repeating is a type of Wireless Distribution System (WDS). A WDS allows a wireless network to be expanded through multiple access points instead of using a wired backbone to link them. The following figure shows a wireless repeating scenario.
Base station access point

WEP or None as a security option in the Wireless Setup screen. The WEP option displays only if you select the wireless mode Up to 54 Mbps in the Wireless Setup screen.
Wireless Base Station. The router acts as the parent access point, bridging traffic to and
from the child repeater access point, as well as handling wireless and wired local computers. To configure this mode, you have to know the MAC addresses of the child repeater access point.

Wireless Repeater . The router sends all traffic from its local wireless or wired computers to a
remote access point. To configure this mode, you have to know the MAC address of the remote parent access point.
The WNDR3400v3 router is always in dual band concurrent mode, unless you turn off one radio. Be aware that if you enable the wireless repeater in either radio band, the wireless base station or wireless repeater cannot be enabled in the other radio band. However, if you enable the wireless base station in either radio band and use the other radio band as a wireless router or wireless base station, dual band concurrent mode is not affected.
For you to set up a wireless network with WDS,
the following conditions have to be met for
both access points:
Both access points have to use the same SSID, wireless channel, and encryption mode.
Both access points have to be on the same LAN IP subnet. That is, all the access point
LAN IP addresses are in the same network.
All LAN devices (wired and wireless computers) have to be configured to operate in the
same LAN network address range as the access points.

Port Forwarding and Triggering
By default, the router blocks inbound traffic from the Internet to your computers except replies to your outbound traffic. You might need to create exceptions to this rule for these purposes:
To allow remote computers on the Internet to access a server on your local network.
To allow certain applications and games to work correctly when their replies are not
recognized by your router.
Your router provides two features for creating these exceptions: port forwarding and port triggering. The next sections provide background information to help you understand how port forwarding and port triggering work, and the dif
ferences between the two.
Remote Computer Access Basics
When a computer on your network needs to access a computer on the Internet, your computer sends your router a message containing the source and destination address and process information. Before forwarding your message to the remote computer, your router has to modify the source information and create and track the communication session so that replies can be routed back to your computer.
Here is an example of normal outbound traffic and the resulting inbound responses:
1. You open a browser, and your operating system assigns port number 5678 to this
browser session.
2. You type http://www.example.com into the URL field, and your computer creates a web
page request message with the following address and port information. The request message is sent to your router.
Source address. Your computer’ Source port number. 5678, which is the browser session. Destination address. The IP address of www.example.com, which your computer finds
by asking a DNS server.
s IP address.
Destination port number. 80, which is the standard port number for a web server process.
3. Y
our router creates an entry in its internal session table describing this communication
session between your computer and the web server at www.example.com. Before sending
Advanced Settings
81
N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR3400v3
the web page request message to www.example.com, your router stores the original information and then modifies the source information in the request message, performing Network Address Translation (NAT):
The source address is replaced with your router’
because your computer uses a private IP address that is not globally unique and cannot be used on the Internet.
The source port number is changed to a number chosen by the router, such as 33333.
This is necessary because two computers could independently be using the same session number.
Your router then sends this request message through the Internet to the web server at www.example.com.
4. The web server at www.example.com composes a return message with the requested web
page data. The return message contains the following address and port information. The web server then sends this reply message to your router.

Source address. Source port number. 80, which is the standard port number for a web server process. Destination address. Destination port number. 33333.

the communications. Your router then removes the session information from its session table, and incoming traf

Port Triggering to Open Incoming Ports
In the preceding example, requests are sent to a remote computer by your router from a particular service port number, and replies from the remote computer to your router are directed to that port number. If the remote server sends a reply back to a different port number, your router does not recognize it and discards it. However, some application servers (such as FTP and IRC servers) send replies back to multiple port numbers. Using the port
Advanced Settings
82
N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR3400v3
triggering function of your router, you can tell the router to open additional incoming ports when a particular outgoing port originates a session.
An example is Internet Relay Chat (IRC). Your computer connects to an IRC server at destination port 6667. The IRC server not only responds to your originating source port, but also sends an “identify” message to your computer on port 113. Using port triggering, you can tell the router, “When you initiate a session with destination port 6667, you have to also allow incoming traffic on port 113 to reach the originating computer.” Using steps similar to the preceding example, the following sequence shows the effects of the port triggering rule you have defined:
ou open an IRC client program to start a chat session on your computer.

2. Your IRC client composes a request message to an IRC server using a destination port

session between your computer and the IRC server. Y
our router stores the original information, performs Network Address Translation (NAT) on the source address and port, and sends this request message through the Internet to the IRC server.
4. Noting your port triggering rule and having observed the destination port number of 6667,
your router creates an additional session entry to send any incoming port 113 traffic to your computer.
5. The IRC server sends a return message to your router using the NA
T-assigned source port (as in the previous example, say port 33333) as the destination port. The IRC server also sends an identify message to your router with destination port 1
13.
6. Upon receiving the incoming message to destination port 33333, your router checks its
session table to determine whether there is an active session for port number 33333. Finding an active session, the router restores the original address information replaced by NAT and sends this reply message to your computer.
7. Upon receiving the incoming message to destination port 113, your router checks its session
table and learns that there is an active session for port 113, associated with your computer. The router replaces the message’
s destination IP address with your computer’s IP address
and forwards the message to your computer.
8. When you finish your chat session, your router eventually senses a period of inactivity in the
communications. The router then removes the session information from its session table, and incoming traffic is no longer accepted on port numbers 33333 or 113.
To configure port triggering, you need to know which inbound ports the application needs. Also, you need to know the number of the outbound port that will trigger the opening of the inbound ports.
You can usually determine this information by contacting the publisher of the
application or user groups or newsgroups.
Note: Only one computer at a time can use the triggered application.

N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR3400v3
Port Forwarding to Permit External Host Communications
In both of the preceding examples, your computer initiates an application session with a server computer on the Internet. However, you might need to allow a client computer on the Internet to initiate a connection to a server computer on your network. Normally, your router ignores any inbound traffic that is not a response to your own outbound traffic. You can configure exceptions to this default rule by using the port forwarding feature.
A typical application of port forwarding can be shown by reversing the client-server relationship from the previous web server example. In this case, a remote computer browser needs to access a web server running on a computer in your local network. Using port forwarding, you can tell the router, “When you receive incoming traffic on port 80 (the standard port number for a web server process), forward it to the local computer at
192.168.1.123.” have defined:
1. The user of a remote computer opens a browser and requests a web page from

Destination port number. 80, which is the standard port number for a web server process.
The remote computer then sends this request message through the Internet to your router.
2. Your router receives the request message and looks in its rules table for any rules covering
the disposition of incoming port 80 traffic. Your port forwarding rule specifies that incoming port 80 traffic should be forwarded to local IP address 192.168.1.123. Therefore, your router modifies the destination information in the request message:
The destination address is replaced with 192.168.1.123.
Your router then sends this request message to your local network.
3. Your web server at 192.168.1.123 receives the request and composes a return message
with the requested web page data. Your web server then sends this reply message to your router.

Port triggering can be used by any computer on your network, although only one
computer can use it at a time.
Port forwarding is configured for a single computer on your network.
Port triggering requires that you know the computer
address is captured automatically
Port forwarding requires that you specify the computer’s IP address during configuration,
and the IP address can never change.
Port triggering requires specific outbound traf

Set Up Port Forwarding to Local Servers
Using the port forwarding feature, you can allow certain types of incoming traffic to reach servers on your local network. For example, you might want to make a local web server, FTP server, or game server visible and available to the Internet.
Use the Port Forwarding screen to configure the router to forward specific incoming protocols to computers on your local network. In addition to servers for specific applications, you can also specify a default DMZ server to which all other incoming protocols are forwarded.
Before starting, you need to determine which type of service, application, or game you want to provide, and the local IP address of the computer that will provide the service. The server computer has to always have the same IP address.
To set up port forwarding:
Tip: To ensure that your server computer always has the same IP address,
use the reserved IP address feature of your N600 Wireless Dual Band Router.

Application Example: Making a Local Web Server Public
If you host a web server on your local network, you can use port forwarding to allow web requests from anyone on the Internet to reach your web server.
To make a local web server public:
1. Assign your web server either a fixed IP address or a dynamic IP address using DHCP
address reservation. In this example, your router will always give your web server an IP address of 192.168.1.33.

2. In the Port Forwarding screen, configure the router to forward the HTTP service to the local
address of your web server at 192.168.1.33. HTTP (port 80) is the standard protocol for web servers.
3. (Optional) Register a host name with a Dynamic DNS service, and configure your router to
use the name as described in Dynamic DNS on page 90. T the Internet, a remote user has to know the IP address that has been assigned by your ISP. However, if you use a Dynamic DNS service, the remote user can reach your server by a user-friendly Internet name, such as mynetgear.dyndns.org.

Set Up Port Triggering
Port triggering is a dynamic extension of port forwarding that is useful in these cases:
More than one local computer needs port forwarding for the same application (but not
simultaneously).
An application needs to open incoming ports that are different from the outgoing port.
When port triggering is enabled, the router monitors outbound traffic looking for a specified outbound “trigger” port. When the router detects outbound traffic on that port, it remembers the IP address of the local computer that sent the data. The router then temporarily opens the specified incoming port or ports, and forwards incoming traf triggering computer

fic on the triggered ports to the
While port forwarding creates a static mapping of a port number or range to a single local computer can close the ports when they are no longer needed.
To set up port triggering, you need to know which inbound ports the application needs. Also, you need to know the number of the outbound port that will trigger the opening of the inbound ports. You can usually determine this information by contacting the publisher of the application or user groups or newsgroups.

Dynamic DNS
If your Internet service provider (ISP) gave you a permanently assigned IP address, you can register a domain name and have that name linked with your IP address by public Domain Name Servers (DNS). However, if your Internet account uses a dynamically assigned IP address, you do not know in advance what your IP address will be, and the address can change frequently. In this case, you can use a commercial Dynamic DNS service. This type of service lets you register your domain to their IP address and forwards traffic directed at your domain to your frequently changing IP address.
If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), the Dynamic DNS service will not work because private addresses are not routed on the Internet.
Your router contains a client that can connect to the Dynamic DNS service provided by DynDNS.org. First visit their website at http://www

Static Routes
Static routes provide additional routing information to your router. Under usual circumstances, the router has adequate routing information after it has been configured for Internet access, and you do not need to configure additional static routes. You have to configure static routes only for unusual cases such as multiple routers or multiple IP subnets located on your network.
As an example of when a static route is needed, consider the following case:
Your primary Internet access is through a cable modem to an ISP.
You have an ISDN router on your home network for connecting to the company where
you are employed. This router’s address on your LAN is 1
Your company’s network address is 134.177.0.0.
When you first configured your router, two implicit static routes were created. A default route was created with your ISP as the gateway, and a second static route was created to your local network for all 192.168.1.x addresses. With this configuration, if you attempt to access a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your router forwards your request to the ISP. The ISP forwards your request to the company where you are employed, and the request is likely to be denied by the company’
s firewall.
92.168.1.100.
In this case you have to define a static route, telling your router that 134.177.0.0 should be accessed through the ISDN router at 192.168.1.100. In this example:
The Destination IP
applies to all 134.177.x.x addresses.

If your router can obtain an IP address but your computer is unable to load any web pages from the Internet, check the following:
Your computer might not recognize any DNS server addresses. A DNS server is a host
on the Internet that translates Internet names (such as www addresses) to numeric IP addresses.
Typically, your ISP provides the addresses of one or two DNS servers for your use. If you entered a DNS address during the router’
Alternatively, you can configure your computer manually with a DNS address, as explained in the documentation for your computer
Your computer might not have the router configured as its default gateway.
Reboot the computer, and verify that the router address (www.routerlogin.net) is listed by your computer as the default gateway address.
You might be running login software that is no longer needed. If your ISP provided a
program to log you in to the Internet (such as WinPoET), you no longer need to run that software after installing your router. You might need to go to Internet Explorer and select
T
ools > Internet Options, click the Connections tab, and select Never dial a
connection.
If the router does not save changes you have made in the browser interface, check the following:
When entering configuration settings, be sure to click Apply before moving to another
screen or tab, or your changes could be lost.
Click Refresh or Reload in the web browser. The changes might have occurred, but the

When entering configuration settings, always click the Apply button before moving to
another screen or tab, or your changes are lost.
Click the Refresh or Reload button in the web browser. The changes might have
occurred, but the old settings might be in the web browser’
s cache.
Incorrect Date or Time
Select Advanced > Security > Schedule to display the current date and time. The router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time from one of several network time servers on the Internet. Each entry in the log is stamped with the date and time of day. Problems with the date and time function can include the following:
Date shown is January 1, 2000. This means the router has not yet successfully reached a
network time server. Check that your Internet access is configured correctly. If you have just finished setting up the router, wait at least 5 minutes, and check the date and time again.

Wireless Connectivity
If you are having trouble connecting wirelessly to the router, try to isolate the problem.
Does the wireless device or computer that you are using find your wireless network?
If not, check the Wireless LEDs on the front of the router. They should be lit. If they are not, you can press the WiFi On/Off button on the back of the router to turn the router’s wireless radio back on.
If you disabled the router’ does not show up in your wireless client's scanning list. (By default, SSID broadcast is enabled.)
Does your wireless device support the security that you are using for your wireless
network (WPA or WPA2)?
If you want to view the wireless settings for the router, use an Ethernet cable to connect a
computer to a LAN port on the router. Then log in to the router and select Setup > Wireless Settings see (

If your wireless device finds your network, but the signal strength is weak, check these conditions:
Troubleshooting
106
N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR3400v3
Is your router too far from your computer, or too close? Place your computer near the
router, but at least 6 feet away, and see whether the signal strength improves.
Is your wireless signal blocked by objects between the router and your computer?
Restore the Factory Settings and Password
This section explains how to restore the factory settings, changing the router’s administration password back to password. You can erase the current configuration and restore factory defaults in two ways:
Use the Erase function of the router (see Erase on page 72).
Use the Restore Factory Settings button on the back of the router. See Factory Settings
on page 109. If you restore the factory settings and the router fails to restart, or the green Power/Test LED continues to blink, the unit might be defective. If the error persists, you might have a hardware problem and should contact technical support at
http://www.netgear.com/support.
Troubleshoot Your Network Using the Ping Utility
Most network devices and routers contain a ping utility that sends an echo request packet to the designated device. The device then responds with an echo reply. You can easily troubleshoot a network by using the ping utility in your computer or workstation.
Test the LAN Path to Your Router
You can ping the router from your computer to verify that the LAN path to your router is set up correctly.
To ping the router from a running Windows PC:
1. From the Windows toolbar, click Start, and then select
2. In the field provided, type ping followed by the IP address of the router, as in this example:
ping www.routerlogin.net
3. Click OK.
You should see a message like this one:
Pinging <IP address > with 32 bytes of data
If the path is working, you see this message:
Run.
Reply from < IP address >: bytes=32 time=NN ms TTL=xxx
If the path is not working, you see this message:
Request timed out
If the path is not functioning correctly, you could have one of the following problems:
Troubleshooting
107
N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR3400v3
Wrong physical connections
For a wired connection, make sure that the numbered LAN port LED is on for the port to which you are connected.
Check that the appropriate LEDs are on for your network devices. If your router and computer are connected to a separate Ethernet switch, make sure that the link LEDs are on for the switch ports that are connected to your computer and router.
Wrong network configuration
Verify that the Ethernet card driver software and TCP/IP software are both installed and configured on your computer.
Verify that the IP address for your router and your computer are correct and that the addresses are on the same subnet.
Test the Path from Your Computer to a Remote Device
After verifying that the LAN path works correctly, test the path from your computer to a remote device.
1. From the Windows toolbar, click the Start button, and then select Run.
2. In the Windows Run window, type:
ping -n 10 <IP address
where <IP address> is the IP address of a remote device such as your ISP’s DNS server.
If the path is functioning correctly, replies like those shown in the previous section are displayed.
If you do not receive replies:
Check that your computer has the IP address of your router listed as the default gateway
