forwarding rules. Click the Custom Port Forwarding button and the following screen will pop-up.
To create a custom rule you will need to know the specific port number and port type that the
application requires. Some applications specify a range of ports in which case you will need to
know both the starting and ending port numbers in the range, which are mapped by the start port
and end port fields.
The Port Map specifies the internal port that the data will be directed to on the LAN Client. When
dealing with port ranges, the Internal Port will be the same as the first port in the range. When you
simply want to forward a single port from outside to inside, then all three fields (Port Start, Port End
and Port Map) will have the same port number.
Available pre-defined rules are categorized according to the application type. Click the radio button

4.5.2 WIRELESS - Configuration
The Configuration page describes how to configure the wireless features of your WL-8064ARM Wireless
ADSL2/2+ Router.
Beacon Period: Enter a value between 1 ~ 4095 milliseconds. The Beacon Interval value
indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the
WL-8064ARM Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router to synchronize the wireless network. The default value
is 200.
DTIM Period: This value, between 1 ~ 65535, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic
Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window
for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the WL-8064ARM Wireless ADSL2/2+
Router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next
DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Its clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast
and multicast messages. The default value is 2.
RTS Threshold: The range is 0 ~ 3000 bytes. If a network packet is smaller than the preset RTS
threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The WL-8064ARM Wireless
ADSL2/2+ Router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and
negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with
a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. This default setting is
2347.
Frag Threshold: The Fragmentation Threshold. The range is 256 ~ 2346 bytes. It specifies the
maximum size for a packet before data is fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a
high packet error rate, you may slightly increase the Fragmentation Threshold. Setting the
Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor network performance. Only minor
modifications of this value are recommended. This default setting is 2346.
Power Level: Select “Full”, “50%”, “25%”, “12%” or “6%” Power Level from the drop down manual.
The default is “Full”.

4.5.3.2 WIRELESS – Security - WEP
WEP: Wired Equivalent Privacy. WEP is a security protocol for wireless local area networks defined in the
802.11b standard. WEP is designed to provide the same level of security as that of a wired LAN. WEP aims to
provide security by encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one end
point to another.
Enable WEP Wireless Security: Place a check to enable WEP Security.
Authentication Type: Select the Authentication Type from the drop down manual. To provide a
certain level of security, the IEEE 802.11 standard has defined three types of authentication
methods, “Open”, “Shared” and “Both”.
Open: The WL-8064ARM Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router does not perform any Authentication.
Open system keys are always authenticated at the device level. After authentication, data is
then encrypted between the gateway and the connected device. This is the weakest form of
security and should not be used for sensitive data.
Shared: WEP shared key authentication. With “Shared” key authentication, only those PCs
that possess the correct authentication key can join the network. Shared keys accept a string
of unencrypted data from a device. The gateway encrypts with a WEP key and sends back
the encrypted data to the attached device.
Encryption Key: Select the level of encryption. The available WEP settings are 64 bits, 128 bits
and 256 bits. The higher the bit value on the encryption, the more secure the data transmission.
For 64 bit WEP, enter 10 Hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, A-F).
For 128 bit WEP, enter 26 Hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, A-F).
For 256 bit WEP, enter 58 Hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, A-F).
Apply: Click Apply to complete the setting.
Cancel: Click Cancel to ignore all the changes.
To complete and save the setting, click Save All after clicking the Apply button.

Supplicant, and Authentication Server.
Server IP Address: This field is required. Enter the IP address of the Radius Server on your LAN.
Port: Enter the port number used for connections to the Radius Server.
Secret: Enter the Radius shared key. This key enables the WL-8064ARM Wireless ADSL2/2+
Router to log in to the Radius server and must match the value used on the Radius server.
Group Key Interval: Type a numeric value (In seconds) of the time lapse in changing the key in
the “Group Key Interval” box.
Apply: Click Apply to complete the setting.
Cancel: Click Cancel to ignore all the changes.
To complete and save the setting, click Save All after clicking the Apply button.

4.5.3.4 WIRELESS – Security - WPA
WPA: Wi-Fi Protected Access ( WPA ) is a specification of standards-based, interoperable security
enhancements that increase the level of data protection and access control for existing and future wireless
LAN systems.
WPA-PSK. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) data encryption provides data security. The very strong
authentication along with dynamic per frame re-keying of WPA make it virtually impossible to compromise.
Because this is a new standard, wireless device driver and software availability may be limited.
Note: Not all wireless adapters support WPA. Furthermore, client software is required on the client.
Group Key Interval: Type a numeric value (In seconds) of the time lapse in changing the key in
the “Group Key Interval” box.
802.1x: Click the radio button to enable 802.1x functionality and enter the IP Address, Port
Number and Secret Key of the RADIUS Server.
PSK String: Click the radio button to enable PSK functionality and enter the PSK String.
