Appendix GlossaryⅢ
Channel
An instance of medium use for the purpose of passing protocol
data units (PDU) that may be used simultaneously, in the same
volume of space, with other instances of medium use(on other
channels) by other instances of the same physical layer (PHY),with
an acceptably low frame error ratio(FER) due to mutual
interference.
SSID
It is the short of Service Set Identifier. An SSID is the network
name shared by all devices in a wireless network. Your network’s
SSID should be unique to your network and identical for all
devices within the network. It is case-sensitive and must not
exceed 20 characters (use any of the characters on the
keyboard).Make sure this setting is the same for all devices in your
wireless network.
WEP
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the method for secure wireless
data transmission. WEP adds data encryption to every single
packet transmitted in the wireless network. The 40bit and 64bit
encryption are the same because of out 64 bits, 40 bits are
private. Conversely, 104 and 128 bit are the same. WEP uses a
common KEY to encode the data. Therefore, all devices on a
wireless network must use the same key and same type of
87
W150M+150Mbps Wireless AP
encryption. There are 2 methods for entering the KEY; one is to
enter a 16-bit HEX digit. Using this method, users must enter a
10-digit number (for 64-bit) or 26-digit number (for 128-bit) in the
KEY field. Users must select the same key number for all
devices. The other method is to enter a text and let the computer
generate the WEP key for you. However, since each product use
different method for key generation, it might not work for different
products. Therefore, it is NOT recommended using.
WPA/WPA2
A security protocol for wireless networks that builds on the basic
foundations of WEP. It secures wireless data transmission by using
a key similar to WEP, but the added strength of WPA is that the
key changes dynamically. The changing key makes it much more
difficult for a hacker to learn the key and gain access to the
network.WPA2 is the second generation of WPA security and
provides a stronger encryption mechanism through Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES), which is a requirement for some
government users.

Appendix :Ⅳ Troubleshooting
In this part some questions and problems shown during the
Router’s usage and installation will be given suggesting answers. If
your problems are not in the list, please log into our website
www.tenda.cn or send an E-mail to support@tenda.cn, and we will
reply you in the earliest time.
1. Enter the IP address but can not visit the WEB management
interface. What can I do?
Please make sure the cable is well connected and the
corresponding indicator is light.
Make sure the device is not in Wireless Router mode. In this mode,
you can visit the WEB interface only by Wireless network.
In the wireless access point (AP) mode, your computer must
specify an IP (192.168.2.2 ~ 192.168.2.254) to access the device.
Please click
“Start" - " Run "to enter “ping 192.168.2.1”to diagnose whether
the device is connected. If it can ping pass, then check whether
your browser enable a proxy server. If enabled please disable it. If
you can not ping pass, you can hold down the "RESET" button for
7 seconds to restore the factory settings, and “ping192.168.2.1”
again.
2. Forget the login password and can not enter the setting page.
What can I do?
Press the “RESET” button for 7 seconds to restore the Router to
default settings.
3. The computer connected with the Router shows IP address
89
W150M+150Mbps Wireless AP
conflict. What can I do?
Check if there are other DHCP servers in the LAN. If there have,
disable them.
The default IP address of the Router is 192.168.2.1 and please
maker sure the address is not occupied by other devices. If there
are two computers with the same IP addresses, please modify one.
4. My computer can not log in equipment; can not access the
internet, and a yellow triangle with exclamation point symbols
shows, how to deal with?
This problem is due to your network card is not assigned the IP
address. If set your computer to automatically obtain IP, please
ensure that the source of the router's DHCP is turned on. DHCP
can automatically assign an IP address to your computer. If there is
no DHCP, please set a static IP address and fill in gateways and
DNS, otherwise you can not access Internet.
5. I can not use E-mail and access the Internet. What can I do?
It happens in ADSL connection and Dynamic IP users. And you
need modify the default MTU value (1492). Please in the “WAN
Setting” modify the MTU value with the recommended value as
1450 or 1400.
6. How can I configure and access the Internet via Dynamic IP?
In Setup Wizard of the Web utility interface, select “Dynamic IP”
connection type and click “Save” to activate it. As some ISPs bind
the user computer’s MAC address, you need to clone the Router’s
90
W150M+150Mbps Wireless AP
WAN MAC address to the bind21ing PC’s MAC address. Select
“MAC Address Clone” in “Advanced Setting” to input your
computer’s MAC address and click “Apply” to activate it.
7. How to share my computer’s source with other users in
Internet
？
If you want Internet users to access the internal server via the
Router such as e-mail server, Web, FTP, you can configure the
“Virtual Server” to come true.
Step 1: create your internal server, make sure the LAN users can
access these servers and know related service port. For example,
Web server’s port is 80; FTP is 21; SMTP is 25 and POP3 is 110.
Step 2: in the Router’s web click “Virtual Server” and select
“Single Port Forwarding”.
Step 3: input the external service port given by the Router, for
example, 80.
Step 4: input the internal Web service port, for example, 80.
Step 5: Input the internal server’s IP address. If your Web server’s
IP address is 192.168.2.10, please input it.
Step 6: select the communication protocol used by your internal
host: TCP, UDP, and ICMP.
Step 7: click “Apply” to activate the settings.
The following table has listed the well-known application and
service port:

SMTP TCP 25
POP3 TCP 110
8. Why can’t I use wireless WAN function to access the Internet?
a. Please make sure that the wireless adapter can access the
Internet when connected to the computer, wireless signals
scanned by the adapter are strong enough, and quality of signals
is good enough. If it can scan too many wireless signals, we
recommend you to use 11b/g mode for reducing interference.
b. Please make sure that the needed parameters such as SSID,
MAC address etc. are correct. It is recommended to use Auto
Scan to finish the settings in the setup process.
c. Please make sure that IP address range obtained at WAN port are
92
W150M+150Mbps Wireless AP
different as the one obtained at LAN port. If they are at the same
range, you can modify the LAN IP address to solve the problem.
d. Please do not detach any antenna of the wireless
Router when you are using the Router.
After trying all the above steps, if you still can’t access the
Internet, you can contact us for support.
If you still have some problems, please contact our customer
service or log on our website.
