Knowledge Expansion
1. MAC Clone: Many broadband ISPs restrict access by allowing traffic only from the MAC address of your broadband
modem, but some ISPs additionally register the MAC address of your computer when your account is first opened. If so,
only by cloning the MAC address of your computer can you access the Internet through the modem router.
2. MTU
: Short for Maximum Transmission Unit, the largest physical packet size, measured in bytes, which
a network can transmit. Any messages larger than the MTU are divided into smaller packets before being sent. The
default MTU is 1492 bytes. For some ISPs, you might need to change the MTU. This is rarely required, and should not
be done unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection.

Click Advanced > LAN to enter the IPv4 address setting interface.
nKeep the Group Name Default in the pull-down menu.
89
Wireless AC1200 ADSL2+ Dual Band Modem Router
oIP Address/Subnet Mask: The device's LAN IP address and subnet mask that both you can change to fit your
network. The default IP address is 192.168.1.1. Once you change the LAN IP address, you need to use the new address to
login to the Management page to configure the modem router.
pEnable IGMP Snooping: Check to enable the IGMP Snooping feature. IGMP Snooping is to restrain broadcast on
Layer 2. Enabling IGMP snooping is good for managing and controlling IPv4 broadcasts. Suggest to select Blocking Mode.
¾Standard Mode: If no members join in one broadcast group, packets of this group will be broadcasted; if
there’re members joining in the group, packets will be only forwarded to the LAN port where the group
members exist.
¾Blocking Mode: If no members join in one broadcast group, packets of this group will be dropped; if
there’s members joining in the broadcast group, packets will be only forwarded to the LAN port where the
group members exist.
qEnable DHCP Server: Check to enable the DHCP Server so that every upstream device connected to your router can
obtain the IP address to access the Internet. If you would like to configure every upstream device with static IP address to
access the Internet, you can check Disable DHCP Server.
rStart/End IP Address: Specify the start/end of the range for the IP address pool in the same subnet as the router.
Only enabling DHCP server can this section can be edited.
s Leased Time: A time length that the IP address is assigned to each device before it is refreshed.
t Static IP Lease List: A list of devices with reserved static IP addresses. If you prefer to configure each upstream
device of your router with a static IP address for better management, you can add static IP addresses to the list.
¾ Add Entries: Click to add a static IP lease entry. A maximum 32 entries can be configured.
¾ Remove Entries: Click to remove a static IP lease entry.
u Configure the second IP Address and Subnet Mask for LAN interface: If you want to configure two IP addresses
for the LAN interface, you can check this option and enter the second IP Address and Subnet Mask manually. The second
IP address and subnet mask have the same function as the first ones.
vApply/Save: After you configure all the needed settings, click this button to apply and save them.
Tip
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) assigns an IP address to each device on the LAN/private network. When
you enable the DHCP Server, the DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool
specified in this screen to the requesting device as long as the device is set to "Obtain an IP Address Automatically". By
default, the router functions as a DHCP server.

2.3.2 IPv6 Autoconfig
IPv6 address can only be Aggregatable Global Unicast Addresses and Unique Local Address. Link-Local Unicast
Addresses and Multicast Addresses are not permitted.
Click Advanced > LAN > IPv6 Autoconfig to enter the IPv6 address setting page.
nInterface Address: Enter the interface address with prefix length. E.g., the interface address is “2000::1/64”, then
you need to input “http://[2000::1]”.
o Enable DHCPv6 Server: Check toenable the DHCPv6 Server.
p Check Stateless or Stateful as you need.
¾ Stateless: If selected, IPv6 clients will generate IPv6 addresses automatically based on the Prefix Delegation's
IPv6 prefix and their own MAC addresses.
¾Stateful: Stateful DHCPv6 is supported based on the assumption of prefix length less than 64. Select this
option and configure the start/end interface ID and leased time. The router will automatically assign IPv6
addresses to IPv6 clients.
qEnable RADVD: Check it to enable the RADVD for informing computers in the LAN of your router’s existence.
91
Wireless AC1200 ADSL2+ Dual Band Modem Router
When computers get the message, they will take the router’s IP address as the secondary route for easy use. In addition,
checking RADVD can also broadcast the prefix address generated from the computer in the LAN.
rEnable IGMP Snooping: Check to enable the IGMP Snooping feature. IGMP Snooping is to restrain broadcast on
Layer 2. Enabling IGMP snooping is good for managing and controlling IPv6 broadcasts. Suggest to select Blocking Mode.
¾Standard Mode: If no members join in one broadcast group, packets of this group will be broadcasted; if
there’re members joining in the group, packets will be only forwarded to the LAN port where the group
members exist.
¾Blocking Mode: If no members join in one broadcast group, packets of this group will be dropped; if
there’s members joining in the broadcast group, packets will be only forwarded to the LAN port where the
group members exist.

¾ Enable ULA Prefix Advertisement: If enabled, the router will advertise ULA prefix periodically.
¾ Leased Time (hour): A time length that the IP address is assigned to each device before it is refreshed.
¾ Start interface ID/End interface ID: Specify the start/end interface ID Interface ID does NOT support ZERO
COMPRESSION "::". Please enter the complete information. For example: Please enter "0:0:0:2" instead of "::2".
¾ Randomly Generate: If selected, address prefix can be automatically gen erated.
¾ Statically Configure: If you select this option, you need to manually configure the address prefix and life time.
¾ Prefix: Specify the prefix.
¾ Preferred Life Time (hour): Specify the preferred life time in hour.
¾ Valid Life Time (hour): Specify the valid life time in hour.
¾ Enable MLD Snooping: MLD is used by IPv6 routers for discovering multicast listeners on a directly attached link.
If disabled on layer2 devices, IPv6 multicast data packets will be broadcast on the entire layer2; if enabled, these
packets will be multicast to only specified recipient instead of being broadcast on the entire lay er2 .
