Ubee Interactive Using the Forwarding Option

Topics

6.5 Using the Forwarding Option

Forwarding tells the DDW366 to which computer on the local area network to send data.
If your host systems or applications have communications issues with the Internet, you
can use forwarding to resolve the following issues:

 Data is sent from a local host to the Internet, but the return path of expected data is

not received by your local host.

 An application or service running on your local network (on local host) cannot be

accessed from the Internet directly (for example, a request to a local audio server).
Examples are:

 Xbox/PlayStation
 Home Security Systems
 Audio Servers/VoIP

See the following topics:

 Before Setting Up Forwarding on page 46
 Setting Up Forwarding on page 47
 Setting Up Forwarding for an Xbox Example on page 49

– Games/applications

– Security systems that use the Internet

– Audio and VoIP applications and services

6.5.1 Before Setting Up Forwarding

Try the following options before you assign forwarding rules:

1. Enable Universal Plug and Play (UPnP). This may resolve the issue you have without
setting up forwarding rules.

a. Access the Web interface of the DDW366, see Accessing the Web User Interface

Locally on page 16.

b. Click Advanced from the main menu.
c. The Options screen is displayed. Check the Enable UPnP box.

.

d. Click Apply.

e. Test your local host or application such as your Xbox to see if it is functioning

properly. Continue with port forwarding if the host or application is not
communicating correctly.

2. Assign a Static IP lease to the client/host to which you are setting up forwarding. This

Ubee DDW366 Dual-Band-Concurrent Advanced Wireless Gateway Subscriber User Guide • February 2014 46

Ubee Interactive Using the Forwarding Option

Note

Steps

way, the IP does not change and disrupt your forwarding rules. For example, if you are
hosting a Web server in your internal network, and you wish to setup a forwarding rule
for it, assign a static IP lease to that system to keep the IP from renewing and
disrupting the forwarding rule.

6.5.2 Setting Up Forwarding

If the suggestions in Before Setting Up Forwarding on page 46 did not correct your
communication problem, use port forwarding.

You need the following information to set up port forwarding:

 IP address of each local host system (for example, Xbox) for which you need to setup

a port forwarding rule.

 Port numbers the local host’s application listens to for incoming requests/data (for

example, a game or other service). These port numbers should be available in the
documentation associated with the application.

For detailed information on port forwarding, including how to set it up for specific
applications using specific network devices (for example, cable modems), refer to:

http://portforward.com or consult your host device or application user manual.

To set up forwarding:

1. Access the Web interface of the cable modem, see Accessing the Web User Interface

Locally on page 16.

2. Click Advanced from the main menu.

3. Click Forwarding from the left menu.

4. Click Create IPv4

Ubee DDW366 Dual-Band-Concurrent Advanced Wireless Gateway Subscriber User Guide • February 2014 47

5. Enter information in the forwarding fields as shown in the screen shot below. Field
descriptions follow.

Label Description

Local IP Address Defines the IP address of the local LAN device to which the

forwarding rule applies. For example, an Xbox or PC.

Local Start Port Defines the starting port number listened to by the server host

located in your LAN.

Local End Port Defines the ending port number listened to by the server host

located in your LAN.

External IP Address Designates another router on the network through which to

forward data.

External Start Port Defines the port number to start the range of ports to publish

to the Internet.

External End Port Defines the port number to end the range of ports published to

Internet.

Note: Be very careful with ranges. Ports within a range are not

usable by other applications that may require them. It is
common and safer to enter the same port number as the start
and end of the range.

6.5.3 Setting Up Forwarding for an Xbox Example

Following is an example of how you would set up a single Xbox running Modern
Warfare 2. Since multiple ports are used for the Xbox and the Modern Warfare 2 game, a
separate forwarding rule is set for each port. Multiple ports and forwarding rules may not
be required for other applications.

To set up port forwarding for an Xbox:

1. Click Advanced from the main menu.

2. Click Forwarding from the left side menu.

3. Enter the Xbox IP address in the Local IP field.

4. Define ports used by the Xbox in the Local Start Port and Local End Port fields.

Note

port can be used only by one program at a time.

You can set up applications/services to listen on one internal port. External Internet
users who want to access that application, address it using an external port, such as
an Audio server. Internal Ports are the ports to which local servers listen. External
Ports are the ports that the DDW366 listens to from the WAN.

The following screen shot shows Forwarding set up for an Xbox.

6.6 Using the Port Triggers Option

Port Triggers define dynamic triggers to specific devices on the LAN. This allows special

applications that require specific port numbers with bi-directional traffic to function
properly. Applications such as video conferencing, voice, gaming, and some messaging
program features may require these special settings.

Some services use a dedicated range of ports on the client side and a dedicated range of
ports on the server side. The difference between port forwarding and triggering is:

 Port forwarding sets a rule to send a service to a single LAN IP address.
 Port triggering defines two kinds of ports: trigger port and target port. The trigger

port sends a service request from a LAN host to a specific destination port number.
The port the LAN host is required to listen to by the application is called the target
port. The server returns responses to these ports.

For example:

1. John requests a file from the Real Audio server (port 7070). Port 7070 is a “trigger”

port and causes the device to record John’s computer IP address. The DDW366
associates John's computer IP address with the “target” port range of 6970-7170.

2. The Real Audio server responds to a port number ranging between 6970-7170.

Ubee DDW366 Dual-Band-Concurrent Advanced Wireless Gateway Subscriber User Guide • February 2014 50

Label Description

WPA Enables or disables the Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)

security protocol. WPA is a subset of the IEEE 802.11i
standard. Key differences between WPA and WEP are user
authentication and improved data encryption. Setting WPA
alone with a pre-shared key requires a RADIUS or TACACS
server for authentication. This method is mostly used in large
enterprise implementations.

WPA-PSK Enables or disables WPA Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK). If you

do not have an external RADIUS server, use WPA-PSK,
which requires a single (identical) password entered into
wireless gateway and wireless client. As long as the
passwords match, a client is granted access to the wireless
LAN. This is the default residential subscriber setting and
uses TKIP encryption.

WPA2 Enables or disables WPA2. This advanced protocol is

certified through Wi-Fi Alliance's WPA2 program and
implements the mandatory elements of 802.11i. In particular,
it has an AES-based algorithm (CCMP) that is considered
fully secure. Setting WPA2 alone with a pre-shared key
requires a RADIUS or TACACS server for authentication.
This method is mostly used in large enterprise
implementations.

WPA2-PSK Enables or disables WPA2-PSK. If you do not have an

external RADIUS server, use WPA2-PSK, which requires a
single (identical) password entered into wireless gateway and
wireless client. As long as the passwords match, a client is
granted access to the wireless LAN. This is the
recommended residential subscriber option. It is more secure
than WPA-PSK and uses AES encryption.

WPA/WPA2 Encryption Sets WPA/WPA2 encryption to AES or TKIP+AES. The

default is AES.

WPA Pre-Shared Key Displays (checked) or hides (unchecked) the WPA key. The

encryption mechanisms for WPA and WPA-PSK are the
same, except that WPA-PSK uses a simple common
password instead of user-specific credentials.

Show Key Displays the pre-shared key when checked. The pre-shared

key for the DDW366 is the 13 characters of the modem’s
serial number.

RADIUS Server Defines the IP address of the RADIUS server, if used.

WPA/WPA2 Re-auth Interval Sends a new group key to all clients at the specified interval

for a wireless router (if using WPA-PSK key management) or
RADIUS server (if using WPA key management). The re­keying process is the WPA equivalent of automatically
changing the WEP key for a wireless access point and all
stations in the WLAN on a periodic basis. Setting the WPA
Group Key Update Timer is also supported in WPA-PSK
mode.

WEP Encryption Enables or disables WEP encryption. If you do not have

wireless clients that can use WPA or WPA2, you can use WEP
key encrypting. A higher bit key offers better security. WEP
encryption scrambles the data transmitted between the wireless
stations and the DDW366 to keep network communications
private. It encrypts unicast and multicast communications in a
network. Both the wireless stations and the DDW366 must use

the same WEP key. Data Encryption can be set to WEP 128-

bit, 64-bit, or Disable.

Shared Key Authentication Defines Shared Key Authentication as optional or required.

Shared Key is an authentication method used by wireless
LANs, which follow the IEEE 802.11 standard. Wireless

9.5 Using the Wi-Fi Multimedia Option

Use the Wi-Fi Multimedia option to configure the quality of service (QoS) to ensure the
best service in your wireless networks.

 Controls WLAN transmission priority on packets transmitted over the wireless network.

 Wi-Fi Multi-Media Quality of Service (WMM QoS) is a part of the IEEE 802.11e QoS

enhancement to certified Wi-Fi wireless networks.

 WMM QoS prioritizes wireless traffic according to the delivery requirements of the

individual user and applications. On wireless access points without WMM QoS, all
traffic streams are given the same access priority to the wireless network. If a new
traffic stream creates a data transmission demand that exceeds the current network
capacity, the new traffic stream reduces the throughput of the other traffic streams.

Ubee DDW366 Dual-Band Concurrent Advanced Wireless Gateway Subscriber User Guide • February 2014 78

Ubee Interactive Using the Wi-Fi Multimedia Option

Note

Steps

 WMM QoS capability allows you to assign access categories (ACs) to various packet

streams. The assigned AC of a packet stream depends on the packet’s priority, such
as a priority assigned by an application (also referred to as a user priority (UP). An AC
may include a common set of enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA)
parameters used by QoS to contend for a channel to transmit packets with certain
priorities.

Different ACs can be associated with different power saving parameters. For example,
one power saving parameter might be the delivery mechanism used by an access
point (AP) to deliver packets to a station (STA) that is operating in a reduced power
mode.

 WMM transmit opportunity (TXOP) is assigned to each access point. The bounded

time interval during which a station can send as many frames as possible as long as
the transmission time does not extend past the maximum duration of the TXOP. If a
frame is too large to be transmitted in a single TXOP, it should be fragmented into
smaller frames. Using TXOP reduces the problem of low rate stations gaining too
much channel time in the legacy 802.11 DCF MAC. A TXOP time interval of 0 means
it is limited to a single MAC service data unit (MSDU) or MAC management protocol
data unit (MMPDU).

WMM may need to be disabled to avoid throughput impacts to other wireless devices.

To configure the multimedia wireless option:

1. Click Wireless from the main menu.

Use the Bridging option to configure the DDW366 to act as a wireless network bridge

and establish wireless links with other wireless access points. To establish a bridge, you
need to know the MAC address of the peer device, that must be in wireless bridging mode
as well. The DDW366 can establish up to four wireless links with other wireless access
points. When wireless devices are in wireless bridging mode, they form a wireless
distribution system that allows computers in one LAN to connect to the computers in the
other LAN.

Ubee Interactive Deploying and Troubleshooting the Wireless Network

Steps

9.7.1 Understanding Received Signal Strength

Received signal strength (RSSI) is measured from connected wireless client devices to
the wireless cable modem. This value can significantly impact wireless
speeds/performance. It is determined by:

 Materials (for example, open air, concrete, trees)

 Distance between wireless clients and the wireless cable modem

 Wireless capabilities of the client devices

To determine the received signal strength, refer to Using the Access Control Option on

page 76 and review the RSSI value. A receive signal strength indicator between 0 to -64

dBm is considered optimal. Levels of -67dBm and lower (for example, -70, -80, etc.) have
a downward impact on wireless data throughput.

9.7.2 Estimating Wireless Cable Modem to Wireless Client Distances

The information in this section helps you to determine how far a wireless access point (the
DDW366) can be placed from wireless client devices. Environmental variances include
the capabilities of wireless clients and the types of material through which the wireless
signal must pass. When the DDW366 and wireless clients reach the distance threshold
between each other, network performance degrades.

To determine wireless cable modem placement:

1. Connect a wireless client to the DDW366. Refer to Connecting Devices to the Network

on page 13 if needed.

2. Place the wireless client at around one meter (three feet) away from the DDW366.

3. Obtain the RSSI value for the connected client. Refer to Using the Access Control

Option on page 76. This value is used in the formula further below.

4. Use the following table to determine what materials the wireless signal must travel
through to reach the desired wireless coverage distance.

Attenuation Considerations

Free Space 0.24dB / foot 0.3dB / foot
Interior Drywall 3dB to 4dB 3dB to 5dB

Cubicle Wall 2dB to 5dB 4dB to 9dB
Wood Door (Hollow/Solid) 3dB to 4dB 6dB to 7dB
Brick, Concrete Wall (Note 1) 6dB to 18dB 10dB to 30dB
Glass Window (not tinted) 2dB to 3dB 6dB to 8dB

Trees (Note 2) 0.15dB / foot 0.3dB / foot

2.4GHZ 5GHz

Note 1: Different types of concrete

materials are used in different
parts of the world and the
thickness and coating differ
depending on whether it is used in
floors, interior walls, or exterior
walls.

Note 2: The attenuation caused

by trees varies significantly
depending upon the shape and
thickness of the foliage.

5. Use the attenuation value from the materials table above in the following formula:

Formula:

(Transmit Power, use -30dBm) – (Receiver Sensitivity, use RSSI value) =

Allowable Free Space Loss

Allowable Free Space Loss ÷ Materials Attenuation Value =

Optimal Distance in Feet Between the DDW366 and a Wireless Client

Example:

(-30dBm) - (-67dBm) = 37dBm (allowable free space loss for a 54Mbps connection)
37dBm ÷.24db/foot (for open space) = 154.16 feet

6. Once you know the optimal feet distance between individual wireless clients and the
DDW366, you may resolve and prevent some performance issues.

7. Check the wireless signal strength and speed of the computer connected wirelessly to
the DDW366. Instructions for checking speeds are provided for both a Windows and
Mac computer in the table below. If the wireless computer is not connected, refer to

Connecting a Wireless Device on page 13.

9.7.3 Understanding the 2.4GHz and 5GHZ Bands

The DDW366 operates in both the 2.4GHZ and 5GHZ frequency bands simultaneously.
This feature allows you to choose the best band for your device to ensure stability with
your local and Internet connection.

The table below provides a comparison between the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.

Wider range Shorter Range

Higher, as many wireless devices such as
cordless phones, microwave ovens, and
computers use the 2.4GHz frequency.

Recommended for simple Internet
browsing and email, as these applications
don’t take too much bandwidth and work
fine at a greater distance.

Note: If you want to use the 5GHz frequency, all wireless client adapters must support 5GHz.

9.7.4 Selecting a Wireless Channel

You may need to change the wireless channel on which the DDW366 operates when you
are in computing, test, and other environments where several wireless access points may
be operating in the 2.4GHz range.

In some cases, you may want to segment your wireless traffic where a group of devices
operates on one channel and another group operates on another channel, and so on. This
is done by configuring the channel on each wireless access point individually (if you have
multiples). If you have control over only one wireless device in an environment where
there may be several, you can change the wireless channel on your device to one that is
not heavily used.

Lower chance of picking up interference
because fewer types of wireless devices
use the 5GHz frequency.

Recommended for applications that
require uninterrupted throughput, like
media streaming. The wider spectrum
delivers better performance.

To change the wireless broadcast channel, refer to Using the Wireless Radio Option on

page 67.

2.4GHz Channels

The following diagram displays the 2.4GHz channels available in the Americas. Each
available channel is 22MHz wide. Since channels overlap, it is best to choose channels
that have the least overlap (typically 1, 6, and 11 in the Americas, and 1, 5, 9, and 13 in
Europe). Overlapping channels can cause wireless network performance issues.
