2-7-4 Wireless Access Control This function will help you to prevent unauthorized users from connecting to your wireless router; only those wireless devices who have the MAC address you assigned here can gain access to your wireless router. You can use this function with other security measures described in previous section, to create a safer wireless environment. Up to 20 MAC addresses can be assigned by using this function.
Enable Wireless To enforce MAC address filtering, check Access Control (4): “Enable Wireless Access Control.” When this item is unchecked, the router will not enforce MAC address filtering of wireless clients. MAC Address (5): Input the MAC address of your wireless devices here. Dashes ( - ) and colons ( : ) are not required; i.e., if the MAC address label of your wireless device is “aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff” or “aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff.” just input “aabbccddeeff.
2-7-5 Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the simplest way to build a connection between wireless network clients and this wireless router. You don’t have to select an encryption mode or input a long encryption passphrase every time you need to set up a wireless client: You only need to press a button on the wireless client and this wireless router, and the WPS will do the rest for you. This wireless router supports two types of WPS: Push-Button Configuration (PBC) and PIN Code.
Below are descriptions of the options: Enable WPS (1): Check this box to enable WPS function; uncheck it to disable WPS. Wi-Fi Protected WPS-related system information will be Setup Information displayed here: (2): WPS Status: If the wireless security (encryption) function of this wireless router is properly set, you’ll see “Configured” here. If the function has not been set, you’ll see “unConfigured.” Self PIN code: This is the WPS PIN code of this wireless router.
Configure by Push Button (4): Click “Start PBC" to start Push Button-style WPS setup procedure. This wireless router will wait for WPS requests from wireless clients for 2 minutes. The WLAN LED on the wireless router will be lit for 2 minutes when this wireless router is waiting for incoming WPS requests. Configure by Client PinCode (5): Enter the PIN code of the wireless client you want to connect to, and click “Start PIN.
Chapter III Advanced Functions 3-1 Quality of Service (QoS) Quality of service provides an efficient way for computers on the network to share the Internet bandwidth with a promised quality of Internet service. Without QoS, all computers and devices on the network will compete with each other to get Internet bandwidth, and some applications which require guaranteed bandwidth (like video streaming and network telephone) will be affected, possibly resulting in the interruption of video/audio transfer.
Enable QoS (1): Check this box to enable the QoS function; de-select this box if you don’t want to enforce QoS bandwidth limitations. Total Download Bandwidth (2): You can set the limit of total download bandwidth in kbits. To disable the download bandwidth limitation, enter “0” here. Total Upload Bandwidth (3): You can set the limit of total upload bandwidth in kbits. To disable the upload bandwidth limitation enter “0” here. Current QoS Table (4): All existing QoS rules will be displayed here.
selected by clicking this button. Move Down (10): You can lower the priority of the QoS rule you selected by clicking this button. After you finish the settings, click “Apply” (11) and the following message will be displayed on your Web browser: Click “Continue” to go back and continue with the router setup procedure, or click “Apply” to reboot the router so the settings will take effect. (Wait for about 30 seconds while the router reboots.
a b c d e f g h i Below are descriptions of the options: Rule Name (a): Enter a name for this QoS rule (up to 15 alphanumerical characters). Bandwidth (b): Set the bandwidth limitation of this QoS rule. You need to select the data direction of this rule (Upload or Download), and the speed of bandwidth limitation in kbps, then select the type of QoS: “Guarantee” (guaranteed usable bandwidth for this rule) or “Max” (set the maximum bandwidth for the application allowed by this rule).
Remote IP Address: (e): Specify the remote (destination) IP address that will be affected by this rule. Input the starting IP address in the left field and input the end IP address in the right field to define a range of IP addresses, or just input the IP address in the left field to define a single IP address. Remote Port Range (f): Input the range of remote (destination) port number that will be affected by this rule.
3-2 Network Address Translation (NAT) Network address translations solve the problem of sharing a single IP address on multiple computers. Without NAT, all computers must be assigned a valid Internet IP address to get connected to the Internet, but Internet service providers provide only a very few IP addresses to each user. Therefore, it’s necessary to use NAT technology to share a single Internet IP address on multiple computers on a local network so everyone can get connected to the Internet.
Click “Continue” to go back and continue with the router setup procedure, or click “Apply” to reboot the router so the settings will take effect. (Wait for about 30 seconds while the router reboots.) 3-2-2 Port Forwarding This function allows you to redirect a single port or consecutive ports of an Internet IP address to the same port of the IP address on a local network.

4-3 Glossary Default Gateway (Router): Every non-router IP device needs to configure a default gateway’s IP address. When the device sends out an IP packet, if the destination is not on the same network, the device has to send the packet to its default gateway, which will then send it out toward the destination. DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol automatically gives every computer on your home network an IP address.
computer host in an IP network. Example: 192.168.2.1. It consists of 2 portions: the IP network address, and the host identifier. The IP address is a 32-bit binary pattern, which can be represented as four cascaded decimal numbers separated by “.”: aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa, where each “aaa” can be anything from 000 to 255, or as four cascaded binary numbers separated by “.”: bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb, where each “b” can either be 0 or 1.
MAC Address: MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address is the hardware address of a device connected to a network. The MAC address is a unique identifier for a device with an Ethernet interface. It is comprised of two parts: 3 bytes of data that corresponds to the Manufacturer ID (unique for each manufacturer), plus 3 bytes that are often used as the product’s serial number. NAT: Network Address Translation. This process allows all of the computers on your home network to use one IP address.
transmitting information over Ethernet between different manufacturers. Protocol: A protocol is a set of rules for interaction agreed upon between multiple parties so that when they interface with each other based on such a protocol, the interpretation of their behavior is well defined and can be made objectively, without confusion or misunderstanding.
