- 58 -

 Service Name: There are two options available: (1) Select a

Service: allows you to select an existing service from the
drop-down list box. (2) Custom Service: allows you to define a
service yourself.

 Server IP Address: The IP address of the server created on LAN

side.

 External Port Start/ External Port End: The port range through

which Internet users access the router’s LAN side server.

 Protocol: There are 3 options: TCP, UDP and TCP/UDP. We

recommend you to select TCP/UDP if you are not sure about
which protocol to choose.

 Internal Port Start/ Internal Port End: The port range used by

the created server on router’s LAN side.

Note: When UPNP function is enabled on the router and on some

application programs on the computer that is connected to the router’s

LAN port, the virtual server page will display: UPNP interface is being
used.

For example: You have created 2 servers on the router’s LAN side: (1)

FTP server (Port: 21) for transferring files is at the IP address of

192.168.1.88 (2) Web server (port: 80) is at the IP address of

192.168.1.99. And you want your Internet friends to access your FTP
and Web servers respectively via port: 21 and port: 80. For

Internet user only needs to enter ftp：//183.37.227.201 or http：

//183.37.227.201 in Web browser address field to respectively access
your FTP or Web server.

4.2.6 Port Triggering

Some application programs or network business (such as network
game, video conference, etc) can not work with simple NAT router due
to the isolation caused by router’s built-in firewall. Therefore, proper
configuration is needed. When application program initiates a
connection toward the triggering port, all correspondingly open ports
will be enabled to implement successful connection and service.

Click ―Advanced Setup‖―NAT‖―Port Triggering‖ to enter the port

triggering interface and then click the ―Add‖ button to add rules.

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

 Open Port Start/ Open Port End: the port range that will be

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 62 -

automatically enabled by the built-in firewall when connections

initiated by application programs succeed.

For example: You have created a server on router’s LAN side that can

automatically download material from Internet (via port: 9090) and
share its data with other users. And you want Internet users to
download data from your server (via port: 9999). For configurations,
follow the instructions below:

To enter the port triggering interface, click ―Advanced Setup‖
―NAT‖―Port Triggering‖, and then click the ―Add‖ button to configure

the page below (Refer to the parameters configured on the page
below):

When your server initiates a connection toward the server on Internet

via port: 9090, the router’s firewall will automatically open port: 9999 to

let Internet users access your server to download data via this port:

9999.

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 63 -

4.2.7 DMZ Host

Once a PC on a LAN is set as a DMZ host, it can implement network
communication with Internet without limit.

 DMZ Host IP Address: the IP address of a PC to be set as a DMZ

host. DMZ host must be connected to the router’s LAN port.

Note: The router’s firewall can not have effect on the DMZ host once it

is enabled. So network security problem may occur. Thus we
recommend you to enable this function only when necessary and delete
the corresponding settings as soon as you are not using it.
For example: If you want the PC at the IP address of 192.168.1.100

from your router’s LAN side to be shared by Internet users for data and

other resources. For configurations, follow the instructions below:
Click ―Advanced Setup‖----―NAT‖---―DMZ Host‖ to configure the page
below:

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 64 -

Supposing that the router’s WAN IP address is 183.37.227.201, then

the Internet user only needs to enter http：//183.37.227.201 in Web
browser address field to access your Web server.

4.2.8 Security
IP Filter

IP filter function can block LAN PCs from communicating with Internet
PCs by preventing specific IP addresses from accessing external
network through router via specific a port number or range.

1) Click ―Advanced Setup‖ → ―Security‖ → ―IP Filtering‖ to display the

page above and then click the ―Add‖ button to enter the page

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 65 -

below to add filtering rules.

Filter Name: Enter the defined filtering name.
IP Version: Only Ipv4 is provided.
Protocol: TCP/UDP; TCP; UDP; ICMP available for your option.
Source IP address [/prefix length]: Enter the LAN IP address to be

filtered.
Source Port (port or port:port): The port number or range used by
LAN PCs in accessing Internet .
Destination IP address [/prefix length]: The external network IP
address to be accessed by LAN PC.
Destination Port: The port number or range used by LAN PCs in
accessing external network.

Note:

 Packets filtered in this function are transferred from LAN to WAN.
 If you are not familiar with all parameters to be configured, you

can just configure some of them and keep the left unchanged. And

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 66 -

the filtering function can also be implemented.

For example:
If you want to filter the PC at the IP address of 192.168.1.100 and make
it unable to access Internet. Then follow the instructions below:
First, click ―Advanced Setup‖ → ―Security‖ → ―IP Filtering‖ to enter the
IP filtering setup page and then click the ―Add‖ button to enter the page
below to configure needed parameters as below:

And then click the ―Apply/Save‖ button to save your setting.

Note:

 Principle of using ―IP Filter‖ funciton to prohibit BT download:

when you use BT software to download data, it needs to send

request for connectting ―seed‖ server, and when this request

passes the router, the router’s IP Filter function will hold it up and

ignore the request so that BT fails to connect the server and

download will be aborted.

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 67 -

 The ports that BT ―seed‖ server frequently uses are in the range of

6900-8100 such as 6969，8000 and 7373. So we can block this

port range by creating proper rules to stop BT software from

connecting the server. However, some Non-BT ―seed‖ servers are

also using port 8080, thus, in order not to affect other servers, we

must divide the port range of 6900-8100 to be blocked into 2

groups: 6900-8079 and 8081-8100 .
 The protocols that BT uses is TCP/UDP, so we need to block both

of them.

URL Filter

URL filter function blocks all LAN PCs from accessing specific domain
names on Internet. It rejects all requests to access the specific
domains.

For example: If you want to prevent all LAN PCs from accessing
www.sina.com.cn, then follow the instructions below:

Click ―Advanced Setup‖―Security‖―URL Filter‖ to the page above

and then click the ―Add‖ there to enter the page below to configure

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 68 -

needed parameters:

URL Address: Enter the domain name that rejects LAN PCs access.
Port Number: The port used by Web server, 80 by default.

Then click the ―Apply/Save‖ button to save your settings. And all LAN

PCs can not access www.sina.com.cn.

Note: After you have added the URL filter rule, if you previously
accessed this URL, then you need to reboot the router and delete your
PC’s cache to activate the function. However, you can access the
deleted URL without rebooting the router after you delete a filter rule.

4.2.9 Time Restriction

This function can restrict PCs or other network devices that are
connected to the router’s LAN ports to a specific Internet access time.

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 69 -

For example: If you want the PC at the MAC address of
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff to access Internet on Saturday and Sunday only, then
follow the instructions below:

Click ―Advanced Setup‖―Security‖  ―Time Restriction‖ to enter the

screen above and then click the ―Add‖ button there to enter the screen

below to configure needed parameters:

 User Name: Enter the defined user name by you.
 Browser's MAC Address: The MAC address of the PC that is

unable to access the Internet via the domain name.

DDNS

If your server is set up on the router’s LAN side, and the router’s WAN

IP address is changeable. When users on the Internet want to visit the
server via the domain name, but the domain name can not be
translated as the router’s WAN IP, which will cause visit failure.
However, DDNS will request the corresponding ISP to update the
domain name and IP address when WAN IP is changed. When the
WAN IP address is updated, users on the Internet can still successfully
visit the server.
This router supports three DDNS providers: www.dyndns.org,

request the Router to carry specific port forwarding, thus the external
host can access the internal host for resources. For example, the MSN
Messenger under Windows XP and Windows Me can utilize UPnP in
video and audio communication, thus the function restricted by NAT can
restore its normal use. Enable UPnP to help support applications that
would not otherwise work behind a Router. Both UPnP Internet
Gateway Device and NAT Traversal are supported.

Systems such as Windows XP/ ME.

3. UPnP function needs the support from Operating Systems such as
Windows XP/ME.

4.2.15 Interface Grouping

If your ADSL line supports multi-WAN connection(there are multiple
groups of PPPOE or other access modes),and you wish some LAN
ports of your router(or the wireless network) to solely share one of the
WAN ports, then you may fulfill this function by configuring the interface
grouping.

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

4.3 Wireless Setting

Wireless function includes ―Basic‖, ―Security‖, ―MAC Filter‖, ―Wireless
Bridge‖ and ―Station Info‖.

4.3.1 Basic Setting

 Enable Wireless: check/uncheck to enable/disable the wireless

function.

Wireless Mode:
 b/g/n Mixed Mode: By default, system is in this mode. So your

network adapter can connect to this router’s wireless network no

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 84 -

matter which standard it complies with: 802.11b, 802.11g or

802.11n. (Different wireless network standards have different

maximum transmission rates： 802.11b mode is at 11Mbps，

802.11g mode at 54 Mbps and 802.11n mode at 150Mbps.

 b/g Mixed Mode: If this mode is selected, then wireless adapters

in use must support 802.11b or 802.11g mode.
 g Mode：If this mode is selected, then wireless adapters in use

must support 802.11g mode.
 SSID: the name of wireless network. It can divide a wireless LAN

into several sub-networks that requires different identity

authentication, and allows itself to be scanned by other wireless

devices through broadcast. The name displayed in ―View available

wireless networks‖ under Windows is a SSID.

 Hide SSID: If you don’t want wireless network to be searched by

other users via SSID name, then you’d better prohibit SSID

broadcast. As a result, your wireless network will not appear in the

searched wireless network list but it is still available, you only need

to manually add it to the list.

BSSID：BSS is a special Ad-hoc LAN application. A wireless network

consists of, at least, an AP that is connected to wired network
and several wireless work stations, which is called BSS (Basic

Service Set).
A group of PCs with the same BBS name can establish a group, and
this BBS name is called BSSID. In a small wireless LAN environment,

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router

- 85 -

there is only one AP and all clients share the same BSSID which is
usually the MAC address of the AP.
 Max Clients: The max number of wireless clients that are allowed

to be connected to the wireless network, 8 by default. You can
modify it manually(The Max number is 8).

 Channel: wireless signal needs to be transferred through a

certain channel. If two transmission signals are using the same
channel, then mutual interference will be caused to decrease
communication efficiency. There are 13 channels (1 to 13) for
your option. Thus, to avoid interferences, you are recommended
to choose the channel that is different from that of another SSID. If

you select ―Auto‖, then system will automatically choose a channel

with relatively less interference for your wireless network.

 Bandwidth: The bandwidth here refers to wireless signal’s

frequency width which only functions in b/g/n Mixed wireless mode.
It works in 11n mode only. 802.11n supports 20MHz and
20MHZ/40MHz channels .Previous standard adopts the 20MHZ
bandwidth while 802.11n adopts 20MHZ/40MHz bandwidth. The
usable channel bandwidth provided by 40MHz channel is over two
times that of two 802.11 carry-over channels. 802.11n standard
supports 20MHz and 40MHz channels, and the 40MHz channel
combined by two adjoining and carry-over 20MHz channels is the
widest channel. Certainly you can use the 20MHz channel instead
according to your needs.

4.3.4 Wireless Bridge

Wireless Distribution System is used to extend the existing wireless
signal coverage. Wireless bridge includes 2 modes:

1. Access point (Once it is selected, the AP function will be enabled
while wireless bridge function will be reserved. And wireless base
station will establish bridge with the AP in the meantime. Namely, you
can establish communication with wireless base station through a
wireless network adapter) as shown in the figure below:

In the above figure, 2 W150Ds are used to enlarge wireless signal
coverage. W150D-2 is configured as a wireless access point to
establish a wireless bridge with W150D-1. In the meantime, the AP
function reserved in W150D-2 enables PC3 and PC4 to communicate
with W150D-2 and access Internet through wireless network adapters.

2. Wireless bridge (Here in this mode, wireless is used as pure bridge
only with no more AP function to connect and communicate with remote
devices. Namely, your PC can only be connected to the device via
wired media instead of communicating with the device through wireless
network adapter.) see the figure below:

In the above figure, 2 W150Ds are used to enlarge wireless signal
coverage. W150D-2 is configured as a wireless bridge to establish a
wireless bridge with W150D-1. W150D-2, here, does not have the AP
function, thus, PC3 and PC4 can communicate with W150D-2 and
access Internet only through wired network adapters instead of wireless
ones.
Bridge Restrict：there are 3 options available: Enabled, Enabled (Scan)
and Disabled.
Enabled: Select it to enable wireless bridge function. You need to know
the MAC address of a remote bridge and enter it manually. 4 MAC
addresses of remote bridges can be saved to simultaneously establish
bridges with 4 APs.

Enabled (Scan): Select it to enable wireless bridge function. In the

meantime, system will automatically scan MAC addresses of
available wireless devices. See the figure below:

with and click the ―Apply/Save‖ button. And system will automatically

establish wireless bridge with the remote device for you.
Disabled: To disable wireless bridge function, select this option.
