Local Network Setup
2.1 Wired Ethernet
Local network The Ethernet ports on the back panel allow you to connect the SpeedTouch™ to an
existing 10 or 100Base-T Ethernet network or one (or more) computer(s) with an
installed Ethernet card.
Using the SpeedTouch™ Ethernet switch, you can create a local Ethernet network of
up to two devices, without needing extra networking devices.
In the SpeedTouch™ package, a yellow full-wired straight-through RJ-45/
RJ-45 Ethernet cable is included.
Standard wiring
procedure
Use the yellow Ethernet cable provided to wire your computer's Ethernet port to
one of the SpeedTouch™'s Ethernet ports.
The Ethernet cable can also be used to wire an Ethernet port of your
SpeedTouch™ to any external Ethernet hub or switch.
Please follow the installation instructions supplied with the external hub or
switch for connections and Ethernet cabling.
Ethernet link check Depending on the SpeedTouch™ model, LED indicators allow you to check your
Ethernet. See “1.1 SpeedTouch™ LED Behaviour” on page 4 for more information.
Device settings Once you have connected a device, you can personalise its settings.
For more information, see “ Device settings” on page 15.
Managed Ethernet
switch
Your SpeedTouch™ intelligently switches data between the devices on your LAN,
using priority queuing to ensure that higher priority messages are delivered first
and in real time. This feature maximizes your network performance.
The managed Ethernet switch allows you to configure a Virtual Local Area Network
(VLAN), group ports or isolate a port, configure secure channel connections, define
Quality of Service (QoS), and configure port mirroring, allowing monitoring from
one port to another.
You can configure the managed Ethernet switch manually using CLI (For more
information, see the SpeedTouch™ CLI Reference Guide).

2.2 Wireless Ethernet
Introduction The SpeedTouch™706 WL Wi-Fi® certified IEEE 802.11g compliant wireless access
point allows multiple computers to connect wirelessly to your local network over
the SpeedTouch™ Wireless LAN environment. The SpeedTouch™ is backward
compatible with IEEE 802.11b, which means 802.11b and 802.11g devices can
coexist in the same wireless network.
The Wireless Distribution System (WDS) on your SpeedTouch™ allows you to
extend the range of your wireless network. To be able to use WDS, you will need to
introduce an additional WDS-enabled access point into your wireless network.
To be able to connect the computers, make sure that a wireless client adapter
(WLAN client) is installed on each computer you want to connect via the WLAN.
Wireless client
requirements
All wireless client adapters compliant to 802.11g and/or 802.11b can communicate
with the SpeedTouch™ and other members of the SpeedTouch™ (W)LAN
environment. However, be aware that only 802.11g compliant wireless clients are
able to gain full profit of the 54 Mb/s (Max) bandwidth delivered by the
SpeedTouch™.
It is highly recommended to use only wireless client adapters that are Wi-Fi™
certified to ensure smooth interoperability with the SpeedTouch™’s WLAN.

Local Network Setup
Wireless Fidelity The Wi-Fi certification ensures that your SpeedTouch™ will interoperate with any
Network Name or SSID The WLAN's 'radio' link is a shared medium. As no physical connection exists
2.2.1 Wireless Basics
802.11b/g 802.11b is an IEEE standard, operating at 2,4 GHz at a speed of up to 11 Mb/s.
802.11g, a newer IEEE standard also operating at 2,4 GHz, gives you up to 54
Mb/s speed, more security and better performance.
Wi-Fi certified 802.11g and 802.11b compliant wireless device.
Access Point The SpeedTouch™ Wireless LAN Access Point (AP) behaves as a networking hub
allowing to wirelessly interconnect several devices to the local (W)LAN and to
provide access to the Internet.
between the SpeedTouch™ and wireless clients, a name must be given to allow
unique identification of your WLAN radio link. This is done by the Service Set ID
(SSID), also referred to as Network Name. Wireless clients must be part of this SSID
environment in order to be able to communicate with other clients on the (W)LAN including the SpeedTouch™.
Radio channels The 802.11g standard allows several WLAN networks using different radio channels
to be co-located. The SpeedTouch™ supports multiple radio channels and is able to
select the best radio channel at each startup.
You can choose to set the channels automatically or manually.
The different channels overlap. To avoid interference with another access
point, make sure that the separation (in terms of frequency) is as high as
possible. It is recommended to keep at least 3 channels between 2 different
access points.
The SpeedTouch™ supports all channels allowed for wireless networking. However,
depending on local regulations, the number of channels actually allowed to be used
may be additionally restricted, as shown in the table below.
Regulatory Domain Allowed Radio Channels
China 1 to 13
Europe 1 to 13
Israel 5 to 8
Japan 1 to 14
Jordan 10 to 13
Thailand 1 to 14
USA / Canada 1 to 11

Local Network Setup
Antennas Direct the external antenna to allow optimization of the wireless link. If for example
the antenna is erect, wireless links in the horizontal plane are favoured. Please note
that the antenna characteristics are influenced by the environment, that is by
reflections of the radio signal against walls or ceilings. It is advisable to use the
received signal strength as indicated by the wireless client manager to optimize the
antenna position for the link to a given client.
Concrete walls weaken the radio signal and thus affect the connection.

2.2.5 Extending the Range of Your Wirelstess Network
Wireless Distribution
System (WDS)
The SpeedTouch™ features the Wireless Distribution System (WDS) functionality.
This feature allows you to extend the range of your wireless network by introducing
one or more WDS-enabled devices into your wireless network.
WDS enables data packets to pass from one wireless access point to another, as if
the access points were ports on a wired Ethernet switch. WDS allows you to extend
the range of your SpeedTouch™ by means of one or more wireless repeaters, like
for instance a SpeedTouch™180. The following illustration depicts two WDSenabled devices communicating via WDS.
WDS Link
SpeedTouch™180 SpeedTouch™706WL
The SpeedTouch™ allows you to add up to four wireless repeaters.
Repeaters extend the coverage area of your wireless LAN. However, bear in
mind that throughput is reduced for wireless clients that are connected
through a repeater.
Preconditions Make sure that:
Your wireless repeater is be WDS enabled.
Both your SpeedTouch™ and your wireless repeater use:
The same WEP key if WEP is enabled.
!
The same fixed channel.
The SpeedTouch™ and your wireless repeater do not necessarily need to
use the same SSID. Using different SSIDs allows you to force your wireless
clients to use either the access point of the SpeedTouch™ or the one of your
wireless repeater.
WPA encryption is not supported when using WDS.

the Setup CD or the embedded Easy Setup, refer to the provided Installation and
Setup Guide.
Access methods Depending on the configuration of the SpeedTouch™ you may have:
Direct access:
As soon as the initial configuration is finished, immediate and uninterrupted
WAN access is provided.
If you have direct access, the remote organisation might ask for a user
name and password on an Internet welcome page.
Dial-in access:
Access must be explicitly established, that is by “dialling” into a Broadband
Remote Access Server (BRAS).
Depending on the SpeedTouch™ configuration, dial-in access is provided via
the SpeedTouch™’s Routed PPPoA or Routed PPPoE packet services with
embedded PPP client.
Chapter 3
Connection protocols The applied connection protocol model depends on the service profile you selected
to configure the SpeedTouch™ and should correspond with the Service Provider’s
requirements. If, for instance, your ISP provides PPPoE, you should configure
PPPoE.
You can find more information on connection protocols in the Internet Connection
Configuration Guide.

5.5.3 Game & Application Sharing
Overview The Overview page summarizes the applications or games installed on a particular
local host on your network, for which the SpeedTouch™ should accept inbound
initiated connections coming from the Internet.
Configure On the Configure page, you can:
Select Use UPnP to enable UPnP on the SpeedTouch™.
UPnP provides NAT-Traversal: UPnP aware applications on a PC will
automatically create Hyper-NAT entries on the SpeedTouch™ for incoming
traffic on the protocol ports this type of traffic needs. As a consequence these
applications are able to traverse the SpeedTouch™ without the need for extra
and manual configuration.
UPnP is an architecture for transparent peer-to-peer connectivity of
computers, intelligent appliances, and (wireless) devices. It enables
seamless operation of a wide range of games and messaging
applications.
For security reasons you are able to configure the UPnP policy towards
Windows XP and UPnP aware applications and Operating Systems.
In case you select the Use Extended Security check box, only limited UPnP
operation between a host running MS Windows XP and the SpeedTouch™ is
allowed: A local host is:
NOT allowed to connect/disconnect the SpeedTouch™ Internet Gateway
Device (IGD) connection.
Allowed to add/delete Hyper-NAT entries only for its own IP address, not
for other local hosts.
If you clear the Use Extended Security check box, all UPnP- and IGD-based
communication between any local host and the SpeedTouch™ is allowed.

Configure On the Configure page you can select the security level of the SpeedTouch™.
Security Levels Select one of following security levels:
BlockAll:
All traffic from and to the Internet is blocked. Game and Application Sharing is
not allowed by the firewall.
Although BlockAll should block all connections, some mandatory types
of traffic such as DNS will still be relayed between LAN and WAN via
the SpeedTouch™.
Standard:
All outgoing connections are allowed. All incoming connections are blocked,
except for inbound connections assigned to a local host via Game and
Application Sharing.
Disabled:
All in- and outgoing traffic is allowed to pass through your SpeedTouch™,
including Game and Application Sharing.
This is the default firewall level.
The firewall levels only have impact on the forward hook. This means that
the handling of traffic from and to the Web pages of the SpeedTouch™ is
independent of the selected firewall level.
Protocol checks will be performed on all accepted connections, irrespective
of the chosen level. You can only disable protocol checks via the CLI.

Allow New Devices:
Allows you to change the access control used by the SpeedTouch™.
Encryption:
Allows you to select an encryption level for your wireless network. The
following encryption methods are supported by the SpeedTouch™:
The Wired Equivalent Protocol (WEP)
WPA-Pre Shared Key (WPA-PSK)
The default WEP key and the default WPA key are printed on the
SpeedTouch™ bottom label.
Before configuring the SpeedTouch™ encryption, make sure you
!
know which encryption methods are supported by your wireless
client.
Configure On the Configure page, you can change the configuration details displayed on the
Details page.
WEP The Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) algorithm protects wireless communication
from eavesdropping.
WEP relies on a secret key that is shared between the wireless client (for example a
laptop with a wireless Ethernet card and the SpeedTouch™. The fixed secret key is
used to encrypt packets before they are transmitted. Meaning during transmission
between client and AP ("in the air") the information in the packets is encrypted.
If your wireless client(s) support(s) WPA-PSK we recommend you to use
WPA-PSK, because WEP encryption has been proven to have some security
issues.
To enable WEP:
1 Select Use WEP Encryption
2 In the WEP Key Length list, click the desired Data Security level (either 64-bit
or 128-bit and Alphanumeric or Hexadecimal).
3 In the Encryption key box, type a Network key of your choice. In case of:
64 bit, Alphanumeric:
The 40-bit Network key must consist of 5 alphanumeric characters.
64 bit, Hexadecimal:
The 40-bit Network key must consist of 10 hexadecimal digits.
