Fields in this page:
Field Description
Authentication Type

Fragment Threshold This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. It specifies the maximum size

Open System: Open System authentication is not required to be successful while a
client may decline to authenticate with any particular other client.
Shared Key: Shared Key is only available if the WEP option is implemented. Shared
Key authentication supports authentication of clients as either a member of those
who know a shared secret key or a member of those who do not. IEEE 802.11
Shared Key authentication accomplishes this without the need to transmit the secret
key in clear. Requiring the use of the WEP privacy mechanism.
Auto: Auto is the default authentication algorithm. It will change its authentication
type automatically to fulfill client’s requirement.

for a packet before data is fragmented into multiple p acket s. If you experie nce a high
packet error rate, you may slightly increases the “Fragment Threshold” value within
the value range of 256 to 2346. Setting this value too low may result in poor network
performance. Only minor modifications of this value are recommended.

RTS Threshold This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. Should you encounter

inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are recommended. If a network
packet is smaller than the preset “RTS threshold” size, the R T S/CTS mechanism will
not be enabled. The ADSL modem (or AP) sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to

4 Ports 11n Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router 4

a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After
receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Se nd (CTS) fra me to
acknowledge the right to begin transmission.

Beacon Interval The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. Enter a

value between 20 and 1024. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the ADSL modem
(or AP) to synchronize the wireless network. The default is 100.

Data Rate The rate of data transmission should be set depending on the speed of your wireless

network. You should select from a range of transmission speeds, or you can select
Auto to have the ADSL modem (or AP) automatically use the fastest possible data
rate and enable the Auto-Fallba ck feature. Auto-Fallback will negotiate the best
possible connection speed between the AP and a wireless client. The default setting
is Auto.

Preamble Type The Preamble T y pe defines the length of the CRC (Cyclic Redund ancy Check) block

for communication between the AP and mobile wireless stations. The preamble
consists of the Synchronization and Start Frame Delimiter (SFD) fields. The sync
field is used to indicate the delivery of a frame to wireless stations, to measure
frequency of the radio signal, to perform corrections if needed. The SFD at the end
of the Preamble is used to mark the start of the frame. If you are not using any

802.11b devices in your network, you can configure the Preamble type to Short for
optimum performance. The Long Preamble type should be used when both 802.11g
and 802.11b devices exist on your network. Note that high network traffic areas
should use the short preamble type. CRC is a common technique for detecting data
transmission errors.

Broadcast SSID If this option is enabled, the device will automatically transmit their network name

(SSID) into open air at regular interval. This feature is intended to allow clients to
dynamically discover and roam between WLANs; if this option is disabled, the device
will hide its SSID. When this is done, the station cannot directly discover its WLAN
and MUST be configure with the SSID. Note that in a home Wi-Fi network, roaming
is largely unnecessary and the SSID broadcast feature serves no useful purpose.
You should disable this feature to improve the security of your WLAN.

that interconnects BSS to build a premise wide network. You can configure your 4-Ports 11n Wireless
ADSL2/2+ Router as MBSSID function using the Wireless – MBSSID page.

Here are some possible settings you could assign to each SSID:

 Virtual Local Area Network. If your network uses VLANs, you can assign an SSID to VLAN1, and the

access point groups client devices using that SSID into VLAN1. This enables the separation of wireless

applications based on security and performance requirements. For example, you could enable

encryption and authentication on one SSID to protect private applications and no security on another

SSID to maximize open connectivity for public usage.
 SSID broadcasting. In some cases, such as public Internet access appli cations, you can b roadcast the

SSID to enable user radio cards to automatically find available access points. For private applications,

it's generally best to not broadcast the SSID for security reasons -- it invites intruders. Multiple SSIDs

means you can mix and match the broadcasting of SSIDs.
 Maximum number of client associations. You can set the number of users that can associate via a

particular SSID, which makes it possible to control usage of particular applications. This can help

provide a somewhat limited form of bandwidth control for particula r applications.

4.6.4 Service – IGMP Proxy

Multicasting is useful when the same data needs to be sent to more than one hosts. Using multicasting
as opposed to sending the same data to the individual hosts uses less network bandwidth. The multica st
feature also enables you to receive multicast video stream from multicast servers.

IP hosts use Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) to report their multicast group memberships
to neighboring routers. Similarly, multicast routers use IGMP to discover which of their hosts b elong to
multicast groups. This device supports IGMP proxy that handles IGMP messages. Whe n enabled, this device
acts as a proxy for a LAN host making request s to join and leave multicast gro ups, or a multicast router
sending multicast packets to multicast group on the WAN side.

When a host wishes to join a multicast group, it sends IGMP REPORT me ssage to the device’s IGMP
downstream interface. The proxy sets up a multicast route for the interface and host requesting the video
content. It then forwards the Join to the upstream multicast router. The multicast IP traffic will then be
forwarded to the requesting host. On a leave, the proxy removes the route and then forwards the leave to the
upstream multicast router.

The IGMP Proxy page allows you to enable multicast on W AN an d LAN interfaces. The LAN in terface is
always served as downstream IGMP proxy, and you can configure one of the available WAN interfaces as the
upstream IGMP proxy.

 Upstream: The interface that IGMP requests from hosts is sent to the multicast router.
 Downstream: The interface data from the multicast router are sent to hosts in the multicast

group database.

In addition, the host should support this feature. In the presence of multiple WAN interfaces, select an
interface on which the incoming traffic is present.

With NAT Tra v ersal, when an UPnP command is received to open ports in NAT, the application
translates the request into system commands to open the ports in NA T and the firewall. The interface to open
the ports on is given to UPnP when it starts up and is part of the configuration of the application.

For Device Identification, the application will send a description of the DSL device as a control point
back to the host making the request.

4.6.6 Service – RIP

RIP is an Internet protocol you can set up to share routing table information with other ro uting devices
on your LAN, at your ISP’s location, or on remote networks connected to your network via the ADSL line.
Most small home or office networks do not need to use RIP; they have only one router, such as the ADSL
Router, and one path to an ISP. In these cases, there is no need to share routes, because all Internet data
from the network is sent to the same ISP gateway.
You may want to configure RIP if any of the following circumstan ces apply to your network:

 Your home network setup includes an additional router or RIP-enabled PC (other than the

ADSL Router). The ADSL Router and the router will need to communicate via RIP to share
their routing tables.

 Your network connects via the ADSL line to a remote network, such as a corporate network.

In order for your LAN to learn the routes used within your corporate network, they should
both be configured with RIP.

 Your ISP requests that you run RIP for communication with devic es on their network..

Most users do not need to define routes. On a typical small home or office LAN, the existing routes that set up
the default gateways for your LAN hosts and for the DSL device provide the most appropriate path for all your
Internet traffic.

 On your LAN hosts, a default gateway directs all Internet traffic to the LAN port(s) on the DSL

device. Your LAN hosts know their default gateway either because you assigned it to them
when you modified your TCP/IP properties, or because you configured the m to receive the
information dynamically from a server whenever they access the Internet.

 On the DSL device itself, a default gateway is defined to direct all outbound Internet traffic to

a route at your ISP. The default gateway is assigned either automatically by your ISP
whenever the device negotiates an Internet access, or manually by user to setup through the

configuration.
You may need to define routes if your home setup includes two or more networks or subnets, if you connect
to two or more ISP services, or if you connect to a remote corporate LAN.

Fields in this page:
Field Description
Enable Check to enable the selected route or route to be added.
Destination The network IP address of the subnet. The destination can be specified as the IP

address of a subnet or a specific host in the subnet. It can also be specified as all
zeros to indicate that this route should be used for all destinations for which no other
route is defined (this is the route that creates the default gateway).

Subnet Mask The network mask of the destination subnet. The default gateway uses a mask of

0.0.0.0.

Next Hop The IP address of the next hop through which traffic will flow towards the destination

subnet.

Metric Defines the number of hops between network nodes that dat a packets travel. The

default value is 0, which means that the subnet is directly one hop away on the local
LAN network.

Interface The WAN interface to which a static routing subnet is to be applied.

4.7.4 Advance – SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a troubleshooting and management protocol that
uses the UDP protocol on port 161 to communicate between clients and servers. The DSL device can be
managed locally or remotely by SNMP protocol.

Fields in this page:
Field Description
SNMP Enable/disabl e SNMP Feature.
System Description System description of the DSL device.
System Contact Contact person and/or contact information for the DSL device.
System Name An administratively assigned name for the DSL device .
System Location The physical location of the DSL device.
System Object ID Vendor object identifier. The vendor’s authoritative identification of the network

management subsystem contained in the entity.
Trap IP Address Destination IP address of the SNMP trap.
Community name
(read-only)
Community name
(write-only)

Name of the read-only community. This read-only community allows read operation

to all objects in the MIB.

Name of the write-only community. This write-only community allows write operation

to the objects defines as read-writable in the MIB.

4.7.5 Advance – Port Mapping

The DSL device provides multiple interface groups. Up to five interface groups are supported including
one default group. The LAN and WAN interfaces could be included. Traffic coming from one interface of a
group can only be flowed to the interfaces in the same interface group. Thus, the DSL device can isolate
traffic from group to group for some application. By default, all the interfaces (LAN and WAN) belong to the
default group, and the other four groups are all empty. It is possible to assign any interface to any group but
only one group.

Fields in this page:
Field Description
Enabled/Disabled Radio buttons to enable/disable the interface group feature. If disabled, all interfaces

belong to the default group.

“Interface groups To manipulate a mapping group:

1. Select a group from the table.

2. Select interfaces from the available/grouped interface list and add it
to the grouped/available interface list using the arrow buttons to
manipulate the required mapping of the ports.

3. Click “Apply Changes” button to save the changes.

4.7.6 Advance – IP QoS

The DSL device provides a control mechanism that can provide different priority to different users or
data flows. The QoS is enforced by the QoS rules in the QoS table. QoS rule contains two configuration
blocks: Traffic Classification and Action. The Traffic Classification enables you to classify packets on the
basis of various fields in the packet and perhaps the physical ingress port. The Action enables you to assign
the strictly priority level for and mark some fields in the packet that matches the Traf fic Cla ssification rule. You
can configure any or all field as needed in these two QoS blocks for a QoS rule.

Fields on the first setting block of this page:
Field Description
IP QoS Enable/disable the IP QoS function.
Default QoS Select IP Pred or 802.1p for default QoS.
Source IP The IP address of the traffic source.
Source Netmask The source IP netmask. This field is required if the source IP has been entered.
Source Port The source port of the selected protocol. You cannot configure this field without

entering the protocol first.
Destination IP The IP address of the traffic destination.
Destination Netmask The destination IP netmask. This field is required if the destination IP has been

entered.
Destination Port The destination port of the selected protocol. You cannot configure this field without

entering the protocol first.
Protocol The selections are TCP, UDP, ICMP and the blank for none. This field is required if

the source port or destination port has been entered.
Physical Port The incoming ports. The selections include LAN ports, wireless port, and the blank
