11N Wireless Broadband Router
Chapter 1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing Tenda 11N Wireless Broadband
Router!
W268R utilizes advanced MIMO technology which increases
transmission range to over 6 times of ordinary 802.11g
products. Compatible with IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11g/b
standards, it can provide up to 150Mbps stable transmission
rate. Additionally, it includes router, wireless access point,
four-port switch and firewall in one, dedicated to SOHOs
(Small Office/Home Office) and family networking.

Chapter11 Routing Setting
11.1 Routing Table
The main duty for a router is to look for a best path for every
data frame, and transfer this data frame to a destination. So,
it’s essential for the router to choose the best path, i.e.
routing arithmetic. In order to finish this function, many
transferring paths, i.e. routing table, are saved in the router,
for choosing when needed.

Appendix 1:Glossary
Access
Point(AP): Any entity that has station functionality and
provides access to the distribution services, via the wireless
medium(WM) for associated stations.
Channel: An instance of medium use for the purpose of
passing protocol data units (PDUs) 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: 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
65
11N Wireless Broadband Router
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
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 2: Questions and Answers
In this part some questions and problems normally found
during the router’s usage and installation will be given with
suggested answers. If your problems are not in the list,
please log into our website
to
support@tenda.cn, and we will immediately reply.
1、 Cannot login to the Web interface of the Router
after you enter the IP address in the address
field?
9Step 1: Check if the router is working and if the “Power”
LED is illuminated. After the device is powered on for a
few seconds, the SYS indicator on the front panel should
be illuminated. If it is not, please contact us.
9Step 2: Check the network cables are connected
correctly and the corresponding LED indicator is
illuminated. Sometimes, the indicator is illuminated, but
it does not mean it is functioning.
9Run “Ping” command and check if it can ping the
Router’s LAN IP address 192.168.0.1. If it is OK, please
make sure your browser does not access the Internet by
proxy server . If the ping fails, you can pr ess the “RESET”
button for 7 seconds to restore to default settings. And
then repeat the ping operation. If it still does not work,
please contact us.
www.tenda.cn or send an E-mail

2、 Forget the login password and cannot enter the
setting page. What can I do?
9Press the “RESET” button for 7 seconds to restore the
Router to default settings.
3、 The computer connected with the Router shows IP
address conflict. What can I do?
9Check if there are other DHCP servers in the LAN. If
there are then disable them. The default IP address of
the router is 192.168.0.1 please maker sure the address
is not being by another device. If there are two
computers with the same IP address, please modify one
of them.
4、 I cannot use E-mail and access the Internet. What
can I do?
9It happens in ADSL connection and Dynamic IP users.
And you need modify the default MTU value (1492). In
the “WAN Setting” modify the MTU value with the
recommended value as 1450 or 1400.
68

5 、 How to configure and access the Internet via
Dynamic IP?
9In 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 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.
6、How to share my computer’s source with other
users in Internet?
9If you want Internet users to access the internal server
via the router such as: e-mail server, W eb , FTP. You can
configure the “Virtual Server”.
9Step 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.
9Step 2: in the router’s web click “Virtual Server” and
select “Single Port Forwarding”.
9Step 3: input the external service port given by the
router, for example, 80.
9Step 4: input the internal Web service port, for example,
80.
69
11N Wireless Broadband Router
9Step 5: Input the internal server’s IP address. If your
Web server’s IP address is 192.168.0.10, please input.
9Step 6: select the communication protocol used by your
internal host: TCP, U D P, ICMP.
9 Step 7: click “Apply” to activate the settings.
9 The following tab le has listed the well-known applic ation
and service port:
Server Protocol Service Port
WEB Server TCP 80
FTP Server TCP 21
