3.2.2.1 Virtual Server This product’s NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping. A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer specified by the Server IP. Virtual Server can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control.
Service Port 21 80 Server IP 192.168.123.1 192.168.123.2 Enable V V 1723 192.168.123.
3.2.2.2 Special AP Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony, etc. Because of the firewall function, these applications cannot work with a pure NAT router. The Special Applications feature allows some of these applications to work with this product. If the mechanism of Special Applications fails to make an application work, try setting your computer as the DMZ host instead. 1. Trigger: the outbound port number issued by the application. 2.
3.2.2.3 Miscellaneous 1. IP Address of DMZ Host DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of firewall. It allows a computer to be exposed to unrestricted 2-way communication for Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications. 2. UPnP Setting The device also supports this function. If the OS supports this function enable it, like Windows XP. When the user gets IP from Device and will see icon as below: 3.

3.2.3.1 Packet Filters Packet Filter includes both outbound filter and inbound filter. And they have same way to setting. Packet Filter enables you to control what packets are allowed to pass the router. Outbound filter applies on all outbound packets. However, inbound filter applies on packets that destined to Virtual Servers or DMZ host only. You can select one of the two filtering policies: 1. Allow all to pass except those match the specified rules 2.
Each rule can be enabled or disabled individually.
3.2.3.2 Domain Filters 1. Domain Filter Let you prevent users under this device from accessing specific URLs. 2. Domain Filter Enable Check if you want to enable Domain Filter. 3. Log DNS Query Check if you want to log the action when someone accesses the specific URLs. 4. Privilege IP Address Range Setting a group of hosts and privilege these hosts to access network without restriction. 5. Domain Suffix A suffix of URL can be restricted, for example, ".com", "xxx.com". 6.

3.2.3.3 URL Blocking URL Blocking will block LAN computers to connect to pre-define Websites. The major difference between “Domain filter” and “URL Blocking” is Domain filter require user to input suffix (like .com or .org, etc), while URL Blocking require user to input a keyword only. In other words, Domain filter can block specific website, while URL Blocking can block hundreds of websites by simply a keyword. 1. URL Blocking Enable Check if you want to enable URL Blocking. 2.
3.2.3.4 MAC Control MAC Address Control allows you to assign different access right for different users and to assign a specific IP address to a certain MAC address. 1. MAC Address Control Check “Enable” to enable the “MAC Address Control”. All of the settings in this page will take effect only when “Enable” is checked. 2. Connection control Check "Connection control" to enable the controlling of which wired and wireless clients can connect to this device.
3.2.3.5 Miscellaneous 1. Administrator Time-out The time of no activity to logout automatically, you may set it to zero to disable this feature. 2. Remote Administrator Host/Port In general, only Intranet user can browse the built-in web pages to perform administration task. This feature enables you to perform administration task from remote host. If this feature is enabled, only the specified IP address can perform remote administration. If the specified IP address is 0.0.0.

3.2.4.1 System Log This page support two methods to export system logs to specific destination by means of syslog (UDP) and SMTP(TCP). The items you have to setup including: 1. IP Address for Syslog Host IP of destination where syslog will be sent to. Check Enable to enable this function. 2. E-mail Alert Enable Check if you want to enable Email alert (send syslog via email). 3. SMTP Server IP and Port Input the SMTP server IP and port, which are concated with ':'.
3.2.4.2 Dynamic DNS To host your server on a changing IP address, you have to use dynamic domain name service (DDNS). So that anyone wishing to reach your host only needs to know the name of it. Dynamic DNS will map the name of your host to your current IP address, which changes each time you connect your Internet service provider. Before you enable Dynamic DNS, you need to register an account on one of these Dynamic DNS servers that we list in provider field.
3.2.4.3 QOS Provide different priority to different users or data flows, or guarantee a certain level of performance. 1. Enable This Item enables QoS function or not. 2. Bandwidth of Upstream Set the limitation of upstream speed. 3. Local: IP Define the Local IP address of packets here. 4. Local: Ports Define the Local port of the packets in this field. 5. Remote: IP Define the Remote IP address of packets here. 6. Remote: Ports Define the Remote port of the packets in this field. 7.

3.2.4.4 SNMP In brief, SNMP, the Simple Network Management Protocol, is a protocol designed to give a user the capability to remotely manage a computer network by polling and setting terminal values and monitoring network events. 1. Enable SNMP You must check Local, Remote or both to enable SNMP function. If Local is checked, this device will response request from LAN. If Remote is checked, this device will response request from WAN. 2.
3.2.4.5 Routing 1. Routing Tables Allow you to determine which physical interface address to use for outgoing IP data grams. If you have more than one routers and subnets, you will need to enable routing table to allow packets to find proper routing path and allow different subnets to communicate with each other. Routing Table settings are settings used to setup the functions of static and dynamic routing. 2.
3.2.4.6 System Time 1. Time Zone Select a time zone where this device locates. 2. Time Server Select a NTP time server to consult UTC time 3. Auto-Synchronization Select the “Enable” item to enable this function. 4. Sync with Time Server Select if you want to set Date and Time by NTP Protocol. 5. Sync with my PC Select if you want to set Date and Time using PC’s Date and Time Click on “Save” to store what you just select or “Undo” to give up.
3.2.4.7 Scheduling You can set the schedule time to decide which service will be turned on or off. Select the “Enable” item. Press “Add New Rule” You can write a rule name and set which day and what time to schedule from “Start Time” to “End Time”. The following example configure “ftp time” as everyday 14:10 to 16:20 Click on “Save” to store what you just select.

4. Troubleshooting This section provides an overview of common issues, and possible solutions for the installation and operation of the WiFi Combo Broadband Router. 1. Unable to access the Configuration Menu when I use my computer to configure the router. Why? Note: It is recommended that you use an Ethernet connection to configure the Ensure that the Ethernet LED on the WiFi Combo Broadband Router is ON. If the LED is NOT ON, check to see if the cable for the Ethernet connection is securely inserted.
Wireless Network screen appears. Ensure you have selected the correct available network. Ensure the IP Address assigned to the wireless adapter is within the same subnet as the Access Point and gateway. The WiFi Combo Broadband Router has an IP Address of 192.168.123.254. Wireless adapters must have an IP Address in the same range (e.g., 192.168.123.x). Although the subnet mask must be the same for all the computers on the network, no two devices may have the same IP Address.
To avoid interference, change the Channel on the WiFi Combo Broadband Router, and all devices in your network. • Keep your product at least 3-6 feet away from electrical devices that generate RF noise. Examples include: microwaves, monitors, electric motors, and so forth. 5. I just do not remember my encryption key. What should I do? • If you forgot your encryption key, the WiFi card will be unable to establish a proper connection.
