FCC STATEMENT

This equipment has been tested and found to co pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver

is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1) This device may not cause harmful interference.

2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

mply with the limits for a Class B digital device,

Thank you fo

r choosing the TD-W8968 300Mbps Wireless N USB ADSL2+ Modem Router.

1.1 Overview of the Modem Router

The TD-W8 Firewall, NAT-router and Wireless AP. Powered by 2x2 MIMO technology, the Wireless N router delivers exceptional range and speed, which can fully meet the need of Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) networks and the users demanding higher networking performance.

The TD-W8968 300Mbps Wireless N USB ADSL2+ Modem Router utilizes integrated ADSL2+ transceiver and high speed MIPS CPU. The modem router supports full-rate ADSL2+ connectivity conforming to the ITU and ANSI specifications.

In addition to the basic DMT physical layer functions, the ADSL2+ PHY supports dual latency ADSL2+ framing (fast and interleaved) and the I.432 ATM Physical Layer.

The modem router provides up to 300Mbps wireless connection with other 802.11n wireless clients. The incredible speed makes it ideal for handling multiple data streams at the same time, which ensu r e s y ou r n e tw o r k s t a b l e a nd smooth. T h e p e r f o r m a n ce of this 8 0 2. 1 1 n w i r e less modem route r w i l l give you the unexpected networking experience at speed 650% faster than 802.11g. It is also compatible with all IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11b products.

968 300Mbps Wireless N USB ADSL2+ Modem Router integrates 4-port Switch,

With multiple protection measures, including SSID broadcast control and wireless LAN 64/128 WEP encryption, Wi-Fi protected Access (WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK), as well as advanced Firewall protections, the TD-W8968 300Mbps Wireless N USB ADSL2+ Modem Router provides complete data privacy.

The modem router provides flexible access control, so that parents or network administrators can establish restricted access policies for children or staff. It also supports Virtual Server and DMZ host for Port Triggering, and then the network administrators can manage and monitor the network in real time with the remote management function.

Since the modem router is compatible with virtually all the major operating systems, it is very easy to manage. Quick Setup Wizard is supported and detailed instructions are provided step by step in this user guide. Before installing the modem router, please look through this guide to know all the modem router’s functions.

2) If the modem router is functioning as a DHCP client, it must identify itself in option 61

(client-identifier) in every DHCP message. DUID/IAID is portion of option 61.

• Option 60 Vendor ID: The option code 60 used to identify Vendor class.

• Option 61 IAID: IAID (Identity Association ID) assigns an Identity Association ID to

individual interfaces. In cases where the device is functioning with a single DHCP client identity, it must use value 1 for IAID for all DHCP interactions. In cases where the device is functioning with multiple DHCP client identities, the values of IAID have to start at 1 for the first identity and be incremented for each subsequent identity. For example, the device may use IAID value 1 for the first physical interface and value 2 for the second. Alternatively, the device may use IAID value 1 for the virtual circuit corresponding to the first connection object in the data model and value 2 for the second connection object in the data model.

• Option 61 DUID: Specifies the name of the interface whose link-layer address the server is to use as its DUID (DHCP Unique Identifier). You must enter a value for this parameter or the server will not start. When the server starts, the DUID is written to the system log.

¾ DHCP Server: These settings allow you to configure the modem router‘s Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server function. The DHCP server is enabled by default for the modem router’s Ethernet LAN interface. DHCP service will supply IP settings to computers which are configured to automatically obtain IP settings that are connected to the modem router though the Ethernet port. When the modem router is set for DHCP, it becomes the default gateway for DHCP client connected to it. Keep in mind that if you change the IP address of the modem router, you must change the range of IP addresses in the pool used for DHCP on the LAN.

• Start IP Address: Enter a value for the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. Because the default IP address for the modem router is 192.168.1.1, the default Start IP Address is 192.168.1.2, and the Start IP Address must be 192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.1.254.

• End IP Address: Enter a value for the DHCP server to end with when issuing IP addresses. The End IP Address must be smaller than 192.168.1.254. The default End IP Address is 192.168.1.254.

¾ Mode: In the drop-down list you can select “11b”, “11bg”, “11bgn” and "11n only”. “11bgn”

allows both 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n wireless stations to connect to the modem router.

¾ Bandwidth: Select the Bandwidth you want to use from the drop-down List. If bigger

bandwidth is selected, device could transmit and receive data with higher speed.

¾ Control Sideband: If bigger bandwidth is selected, this option will allow you select the

Control Sideband you want.

¾ Fragmentation Threshold: This value specifies the maximum size for a packet before data

is fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase the Fragmentation Threshold. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor network performance. Only minor reduction of the default value is recommended. In most cases, it should remain at its default value of 2346.

¾ RTS Threshold: Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor reduction of the

default value 2347 is recommended. If a network packet is smaller than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The modem router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. This mechanism can provide you a quiet communication channel by notifying other stations not to send packet for a period of time. In most cases, keep its default value of 2347.

¾ DTIM Interval: This value, between 1 and 255, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic

Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. The countdown unit is measured by the amounts of beacon frames received. When the modem router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Its clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1.
