5.3. INTERNET ESR6650 supports both 3G and ADSL for Internet access. Please note that 3G (USB interface) network by default is the preferred Internet option. Therefore, in case you have both 3G and ADSL connection setup, ESR6650 will automatically use 3G for Internet access. Please note that inserting 3G data card will switch off ADSL connection immediately. If you prefer to use ADSL for Internet access, do not insert 3G data card into the USB socket.
- Dynamic IP Use the MAC address when registering for Internet service, and do not change it unless required by your ISP. If your ISP used the MAC address of the Ethernet card as an identifier, connect only the PC with the registered MAC address to the Router and click the button. This will replace the current MAC address with the already registered Ethernet card MAC address. Host Name: This is optional.
- Static IP If your ISP Provider has assigned a fixed IP address, enter the assigned IP address, Subnet mask, Default Gateway IP address, and Primary DNS and Secondary DNS (if available) of your ISP provider.
- Point-to-Point over Ethernet Protocol (PPPoE) Login / Password: Enter the PPPoE username and password assigned by your ISP Provider. Service Name: This is normally optional. Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU): This is the maximum size of the packets. Type: Enable the Automatic Connection option to automatically re-establish the connection when an application attempts to access the Internet again.
- Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) PPTP allows the secure connection over the Internet by simply dialing in a local point provided by your ISP provider. The following screen allows client PCs to establish a normal PPTP session and provides hassle-free configuration of the PPTP client on each client PC. Click to save configuration and connect to ISP provider.
- 3G Network ISP: It shows a list of supported 3G Network Internet Service Provider. APN Code: Enter APN if ISP requires it. Dial Number: Enter phone number if ISP requires it. User Name: Enter 3G network account / username Password: Enter 3G network account password Type: Keep Connection: Keep connection with or without the presence of traffic. Automatic Connection: Connect when traffic is detected.
5.4. Wireless Settings - Basic In basic setting page, you can set wireless Radio, Mode, Band, SSID, and Channel. Radio: You can turn on/off wireless radio. If wireless Radio is off, you cannot associate with AP through wireless. Mode: In this device, we support three operation modes which are AP router and AP route with WDS. If you choose AP Router Mode, you can select AP or WDS function in the drop-down menu. Band: You can select the wireless standards running on your network environment. 2.
ESSID1~4: ESSID is the name of your wireless network. It might be a unique name to identify this wireless device in the Wireless LAN. It is case sensitive and up to 32 printable characters. You might change the default ESSID for added security. Auto Channel: Device will search all valid channels, then select a cleanest channel and change to this channel if you enable this function. Depend on this function is enabled or not, you will see different items below Auto Channel.
- WDS with AP Router Wireless Distribution System, a system that enables the wireless interconnection of access point, allows a wireless network to be extended using multiple APs without a wired backbone to link them. Each WDS AP needs same channel and encryption type settings. MAC address 1~4: Please enter the MAC address(es) of the neighboring APs which participate in WDS. There can be maximum of 4 devices now. Set Security: WDS Security depends on your AP security settings.
Fragment Threshold: This specifies the maximum size of a packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted. If you set this value too low, it will result in bad performance. RTS Threshold: When the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet. Beacon Interval: This is the interval of time that this wireless router broadcasts a beacon. A Beacon is used to synchronize the wireless network.
Data Rate: The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets. The access point will use the highest possible selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets. N Data Rate: The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets for N compliant wireless nodes. Highest to lowest data rate can be fixed. Channel Bandwidth: This is the range of frequencies that will be used.
- Security This Access Point provides complete wireless LAN security functions, included are WEP, IEEE 802.1x, IEEE 802.1x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared key and WPA with RADIUS. With these security functions, you can prevent your wireless LAN from illegal access. Please make sure your wireless stations use the same security function, and are setup with the same security key. ESSID Selection: This Router support multiple ESSID, you could select and set up the wanted ESSID.
IEEE 802.1x is an authentication protocol. Every user must use a valid account to login to this Access Point before accessing the wireless LAN. The authentication is processed by a RADIUS server. This mode only authenticates users by IEEE 802.1x, but it does not encrypt the data during communication. WEP Encryption When you select 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key, you have to enter WEP keys to encrypt data. You can generate the key by yourself and enter it.
Authentication Type: There are two authentication types: "Open System" and "Shared Key". Both AP and wireless client must be configured with the same authentication type. Key Length: You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit. The larger the key will be the higher level of security is used, but the throughput will be lower. Key Type: You may select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal Digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key.
