More about WLAN 2 More about WLAN AVM and WLAN WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) is a radio technology that allows Ethernet networks and access to the Internet to be provided without cable connections. This allows multiple users to share one wireless Internet connection. 2.1 Standards The WLAN standards IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n (on the basis of the preliminary draft 2.0 of the standard) and IEEE 802.
Standards for the Throughput Rate Range The range within a WLAN is highly dependent on the following factors: the WLAN adapter used the structural conditions the amount of radio traffic on the same frequency band. Other WLAN networks, microwave ovens or Bluetooth transmitters (mobile telephones) may be active. IEEE 802.11a Because this standard works exclusively in the seldom used 5-GHz range, it offers the opportunity to transmit data relatively free of interference from external influences.
The Standard for Security Combining this standard with the 802.11g ensures compatibility with older WLAN adapters. The Standard for Security IEEE 802.11i The WPA2 security mechanism is defined in the IEEE 802.11i standard. WPA2 is an extension of the familiar security mechanism WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access).
Encryption Encryption The most important security setting is encryption. FRITZ!Box supports the security mechanisms WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) and WPA2 as follows: As part of the WEP mechanism a static key is determined to serve for the encryption of the user data. Enter the key in the WLAN security settings of the FRITZ!Box. All of the WLAN adapters in your wireless network must also use this key.
Encryption Recommendation If your WLAN adapter supports an encryption method that is more secure than the one preconfigured in the FRITZ!Box, you should select the more secure encryption method in your FRITZ!Box. To configure the best security settings possible with FRITZ!Box and your WLAN adapter, please note the following recommendations: If your WLAN adapter supports WPA2 in accordance with the 802.11i standard: – Enable WPA encryption. – Select the WPA mode “WPA2 (CCMP)” or “WPA+WPA2”.
Frequency Ranges 2.3 Frequency Ranges WLAN uses the frequency range around 2.4 GHz in the ISM band or, alternatively, the frequency range at 5 GHz. You can use both frequency ranges with the FRITZ!Box. 2.4-GHz Frequency Band A WLAN in the 2.4-GHz frequency band works in the same band as Bluetooth, microwave devices and many cordless telephones. This means that interference may occur within WLANs operated in the vicinity of such devices.
Frequency Ranges In the 5-GHz frequency band, your FRITZ!Box occasionally may change channels unexpectedly due to DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection) if a “higher privileged user” simultaneously claims the selected channel. This can happen especially when military or civilian radar is used in the immediate vicinity. A prerequisite for use of the 5-GHz frequency band is that all WLAN adapters in the network support this frequency range in accordance with the IEEE 802.11a or IEEE 8002.11n standard. 2.
Frequency Ranges Allocation of the WLAN channels in the 2.4-GHz range: Channel Frequency (MHz) Channel Frequency (MHz) 1 2412 8 2447 2 2417 9 2452 3 2422 10 2457 4 2427 11 2462 5 2432 12 2467 6 2437 13 2472 7 2442 Allocation of the WLAN channels in the 5-GHz range: Channel Frequency (GHz) Channel Frequency (GHz) 36 5.180 108 5.540 40 5.200 112 5.560 44 5.220 116 5.580 48 5.240 120 5.600 52 5.260 124 5.620 56 5.280 128 5.640 60 5.300 132 5.
More about Network Settings 3 More about Network Settings FRITZ!Box and Networks The FRITZ!Box is delivered with preconfigured network settings. According to these settings, all computers connected with the FRITZ!Box are located in the same subnetwork. You can change any of these preconfigured settings, but should only do so if you are well versed in networking technology. The Glossary (see the chapter “Glossary” from page 142) explains concepts and terminology having to do with IP networks.
IP Address 3.1 IP Address The FRITZ!Box is delivered with an IP address preset. Factory Settings All computers are located in the enabled same IP network IP address 192.168.178.1 Subnet mask 255.255.255.0 DHCP server enabled The IP address and the corresponding subnet mask automatically yield the following values: Network address of the subnet 192.168.178.0 Entire IP address pool for the computers 192.168.178.2 192.168.178.253 You can change the preset IP address.
Reserved IP Addresses The subnet mask must correspond with that of the connected subnet. When the DHCP server of the FRITZ!Box is enabled, the addresses 20 through 200 in the fourth group of numerals of the IP address are reserved for the DHCP server. If none of the computers in your network has an address from this pool, the DHCP server can remain switched on. If one of the computers has a fixed address assigned from this pool, you should switch off the DHCP server.
DHCP Server 3.2 DHCP Server The FRITZ!Box is equipped with its own DHCP server. The DHCP server is enabled by default in the factory settings. Every time the operating system on a computer connected with FRITZ!Box is started, it is assigned an IP address by the DHCP server. Only one DHCP server may be active within any network. Factory Settings All computers are located in the same IP network enabled IP address 192.168.178.1 Subnet mask 255.255.255.
Fixed IP Addresses when the DHCP Server Is Enabled The computers can receive their IP addresses from the DHCP server only if the setting “Obtain an IP address automatically” is enabled in the their IP settings. For more information, see the section “IP Settings” from page 102.
Changing the DHCP Server Settings In the case of the preset IP address of the FRITZ!Box, the following IP addresses are available for assignment to the computers: 192.168.178.2 - 192.168.178.253 Each IP address can be assigned only once. Changing the DHCP Server Settings Proceed as follows to open the DHCP server settings: 1. Start a web browser on your computer. 2. Enter fritz.box in the address line of the browser. 3. Select the “Advanced Settings / System” menu in the “Settings” area. 4.
Disabling “All computers are located in the same IP network” The DHCP server of the FRITZ!Box assigns all of the computers connected with the FRITZ!Box an IP address from the address pool of the DHCP server. Address pool of the DHCP server 192.168.178.20 - 200 This means that all of the computers connected with the FRITZ!Box are located in the same subnet.
Disabling “All computers are located in the same IP network” Deactivating Interface Network Address of the Subnet LAN 1 192.168.178.0 LAN 2 like LAN 1 LAN 3 like LAN 1 LAN 4 like LAN 1 WLAN 192.168.182.0 Proceed as follows to disable the setting “All computers are located in the same IP network”: 1. Open your a web browser on your computer and enter fritz.box in the address line of the browser. 2. Select the “Advanced Settings / System” menu in the “Settings” area. 3.
More about Internet Telephony 4 More about Internet Telephony Voice over IP (VoIP) Internet telephony has already been in use for years, but today it allows even private customers the convenience familiar from conventional telephony, usually at significantly lower prices. Internet telephony has also made it considerably more convenient to use applications like conference calls and answering machines in networks.
Bandwidth Management 4.2 Bandwidth Management The FRITZ!Box is equipped with integrated bandwidth management. This function ensures that the speech quality during telephone calls over the Internet is not reduced by surfing activity. To do this, the FRITZ!Box adjusts all uploads and downloads to the currently available bandwidth. Because the FRITZ!Box also places a higher priority on Internet telephony connections over Internet data connections, unwelcome interference is largely avoided.

Glossary 6 Glossary ADSL abbreviation for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line Designates a fast kind of file transfer that works with standard copper cables and transports signals in both directions at different speeds (upstream at 640 Kbit/s and downstream at up to 9 Mbit/s). ADSL2 abbreviation for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line 2 ADSL 2 (G.992.3) is a further development of the ADSL norm (G.992.1/G.992.2).
Glossary ADSL-Controller An ADSL-Controller is an electronic hardware assembly that allows a computer to access an ADSL line. ADSL-Controllers are stationary equipment, included on internal ADSL cards (for the PCI bus) or in external ADSL modems (with USB or Ethernet ports). Alias Alias means different, else and also known as. An alias is often a short, catchy substitute for a long, complicated string of characters, for example, the actual name of the user J.Smith@my-internetprovider.
Glossary DNS abbreviation for Domain Name System Domain Name Service takes care of determining the IP address for a given domain name. Domain Name Service is running on every computer. It accepts the domain name entered by a user and inquires about the corresponding IP address at a DNS server known to the service. If a DNS server cannot answer the inquiry itself, it can inquire about the IP address (DNS resolution) at other DNS servers.
Glossary It works by transmitting the current IP address to a special DDNS server each time the IP address changes. Except for the few seconds between the cancellation of the old IP address and the notification of the new IP address, the computer can always be reached at the selected domain name. Dynamic IP address A dynamic IP address is an IP address valid only for the duration of one Internet or network session.
Glossary Especially effective firewalls go even further, analyzing and evaluating the contents of the packets and filtering them according to prescribed rules. Such techniques are included in a Stateful Packet Inspection Firewall, for instance. Firmware The firmware is saved in programmable components within a device.
Glossary If all packets that cannot be delivered in a local network always are to be transmitted to their given recipients via the same gateway, for this purpose the address of the gateway must be saved as the default gateway in the network configuration of the computer. Such a default gateway for the computer is negotiated automatically by the operating system or the dialing software whenever an ISDN-Controller or DSL-Controller establishes a connection to the Internet.
Glossary IP addresses can be public or private, and also fixed or assigned dynamically. See the corresponding entries in the glossary for more information. IP addressing Addressing is one of the main functions of the Internet Protocol (IP). Internet addresses can be written in decimal, octal or hexadecimal notation. The FRITZ!Box uses “dotteddecimal” notation: The four bytes of an address are represented by decimal numbers separated by dots.
Glossary IP network A network in which data exchange takes place on the basis of the Internet Protocol is called an IP network. Port So that a single network connection on a connection can be used by multiple applications to exchange data with remote sites at the same time, a computer administers what are known as ports for the IP-based protocols TCP and UDP. Ports substantiate the point of access for the data packets delivered via the IP Internet protocol.
Glossary service for access to incoming data packets and thus keep it open permanently. The private IP address of the given computer must be saved as the destination address for all of the packets arriving at the port. Typical server applications which require port forwarding are FTP and Web servers.
Glossary Subnet mask The subnet mask indicates which part of an IP address is the network address and which the address of the computer. The network address defines what is called the subnet. Example 1 IP address: 192.168.178.247 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 The assignment of the first three groups of numerals in the subnet mask indicates that the first three groups of numerals in the IP address define the network. The following addresses result: Network address of the subnet: 192.168.178.
Glossary Example 2 Network address of the subnet: 192.168.0.0 Address of the computer in the 192,168,178,247 subnet: IP address pool in the subnet: 192.168.0.0 - 192,168,255,255 The IP addresses 192.168.0.0 and 192.168.255.255 are reserved. This means that the addresses from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.255.254 are available for assignment to the computers. TCP/IP abbreviation for Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol TCP/IP is the “language” of the Internet.
Glossary Provider. The process of automatic configuration via TR-069 is initiated by the ADSL terminal device. First the user enters a security key and then the settings are retrieved from the Auto Configuration Server and implemented in the ADSL terminal device without any further interaction with the user. During this process all of the communication between the ADSL terminal device and the Auto Configuration Server takes place in encrypted form.
Glossary Update A more recent version of software or firmware is called an update. Updates are often free of charge, resolve minor programming errors, and sometimes also offer new functions. Upload This term designates the procedure of transmitting files from one’s own computer to another computer in the Internet.
Glossary already existing analog telephones to be used even when the computer is switched off. Various Internet Service Providers and telephony carriers provide SIP fixed-line gateways for this purpose. Such a gateway is used to produce voice connections between the Internet and conventional telephone networks.
Glossary The application possibilities for wireless network communication also overlap with Bluetooth technology.
