WISP mode, it assigns IP addresses to its clients by itself. And the clients obtain IP addresses from
the base station the Router bridges when the Router works under Universal repeater mode. You can
select WISP OR Universal repeater to extend your wireless network.
You need two routers: one as a base station, and the other as a bridge.

Tips
Router B MUST contain the Router A’s channel, or the Router A’s WiFi name (wireless network name)
won’t be displayed in the Base Station WiFi Name list. For example, if the Router A’s channel is 13,
but Router B’s channel range is 1~11, you won’t find the Router A’s WiFi name in the Base Station
WiFi Name list. So you’d better select the correct country (the country where you use the router),
because the Channel range varies in different countries. Or you can set the Router A’s channel to the
one within Router B’s channel range.

If the bridge failed, try solving the problem as follows:
Verify that the Router A’s DHCP server is enabled. If not,
Enable the Router A’s DHCP sever.
Log in to Router B’s User Interface, click Internet Settings, select Static IP, type the required
info in the corresponding field, and click OK.
Note
1. The WiFi Schedule, WPS, Guest Network, Sleeping Mode, and IPTV feature are not available
when the Router B is in WISP mode.
2. The configuration of the Router b’s wireless channel won’t take effect after bridge.
3. If Router B’s LAN IP address is the same as that of Router A, it will be changed into another one
automatically which is not in the same network segment as that of Router A after bridge. For example,
if the Router A and Router B’s LAN IP address are all 192.168.0.1, the Router B’s LAN IP address
will be changed into 192.168.1.1 after bridge. You can use 192.168.1.1 or the domain name

Channel & Bandwidth
In this part, you can change the basic settings of your wireless network. There are two different
frequency bands: 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
Network Mode: This Router supports 3 network modes for 2.4GHz frequency band, and 2
modes for 5GHz frequency band. To change the mode, select it from the Network Mode list.
The default one is optimum.
Channel: To change the wireless channel, select a number from the Channel list. Do not change
the channel unless you experience interference (shown by lost wireless connection or slow data
transfers). If this happens, experiment with different channels to see which the best is. The
recommended channel spacing between adjacent access points is four channels (for example, use
channel 1 and 5, or 6 and 10).
Bandwidth: Select any of these channel bandwidths to accommodate higher transmission
speeds:
40 (default): Select this bandwidth to maximize the wireless throughput.
20: Select this bandwidth if you encounter some issues with your wireless connection.
When the 2.4GHz network mode is set to 11bg mixed, the 2.4GHz bandwidth can only be 20.
20/40: Select this bandwidth to switch among 20 and 40 according to the situation of the current
wireless network.
80: Select this bandwidth to maximize the wireless throughput.
20/40/80: Select this bandwidth to switch among 20, 40 and 80 according to the situation of the

Virtual Server helps you to direct network traffic from the Internet to a specific port or a specific
range of ports to a device or number of devices on your local network. If you have a server in your
home network, you can allow certain types of incoming traffic to reach the server. For example, you
might want to make a local web server, or FTP server visible and available to the Internet.

You can use the public WAN IP address to access the FTP server remotely, but most people don’t
know what their IP addresses are or when this number changes for the public WAN IP of the Router
is usually dynamic. To solve the problem, you can use the DDNS feature.
DMZ
The DMZ host allows a particular interface or computer to have a direct access to some special
messages via the Router without any firewall or network address translator (NAT) to mask the true
identity of the interface or computer. These special messages refer to an HTTP server or FTP server.
Your Router contains its DMZ settings shown as the screenshot below.

Click Save to activate your settings.
Note
Once enabled, the DMZ host loses protection from the firewall and becomes vulnerable to Internet
attacks. If you do not need to use DMZ host, disable it as soon as possible.
Remote Management
This section can help you to manage your Router remotely.
Example
You want to manage your home network when you are in the company. Assume that the WAN IP
address of your company’s network is “202.165.100.105”, and it is a public IP address (Only when
the IP is a public IP, can this Router can be managed remotely). And your Router at home is working
properly, the WAN IP is “190.136.2.5”, and it’s a public IP address as well.
Now configure the Router to provide remote web management.
Configuration
Log in to the Router’s User Interface, and click Advanced Settings > Remote Management.

Verification
When you’re in the company, you can use your computer to access your Router’s User Interface by
entering “http://190.136.2.5:8080” in a browser.
Remote Web Management + DDNS
However, in the example above, the WAN IP of the Router in your home may not always be static.
You can give the WAN IP a static host name via DDNS to maintain the connection between your
Router and the computer in your company. Go to “DDNS” for details to configure a username,
password, and domain name.
Assume you signed up an account tenda01.3322.org from dyndns.org, the username is tenda01, and
the password is 1234567890.
After you bind a static hostname to the WAN IP, when you’re in the company, you can also access
the Router’s User Interface by entering “http://tenda01.3322.org:8080” in a browser of your computer in the
company.

technical support suggests to do so, or you are guided by some professional person.
Static Routing
Static routing feature provides more routing information to your router. A static route is a predetermined path that network information must travel to reach a specific host or network. Typically,
you do not need to add static routes. You have to configure static routes only for unusual cases such
as multiple routers or multiple IP subnets on your network. There are several default routes in the list
which cannot be deleted or edited.
