Internet Settings
To establish Internet connection, we have provided 5 (five) options to select from.
1. DHCP
If your Internet Service Provider (ISP) allows you to connect to their network without any
credential, fixed IP or passphrase, then this could be the best option. Just plug-in the router
and the router will obtain an IP, Gateway, DNS Servers etc. from the ISP automatically.

2. Static IP
Some ISP uses static IP for their clients. In this case, the following information is necessary
to establish a static connection.
1. IP Addres
2. Subnet Mask
3. Gateway
4. Primary and Secondary DNS (Optional)
Contact your ISP for this information. Once obtained, set the WAN Mode to Static Mode and
fill out the form accordingly.
If the connection parameters are correct, you can find the connection status in Internet
Settings > Status.

3. PPPoE
This is another popular authentication system for broadband Internet. The ISP will provide
you a pair of username and password. Change the WAN Mode to PPPoE and then fill-up the
username and password correctly.
There are 3 (three) operation modes for PPPoE.
1. Keep Alive: Connection will stay always ON
2. On-Demand: The connection will keep alive unless an inactive state is detected
3. Manual: You will need to connect manually everytime you need to use the internet.
N.B. We suggest you to use the Keep Alive mode.

4. L2TP
L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) is a tunneling protocol used to support virtual private
networks (VPNs) or as part of the delivery of services by ISPs. This connection option is
similar to PPPoE, which means you will need a pair of username and password along with
the IP address of the L2TP server.
5. PPTP
PPTP has the same connection parameters as L2TP.
6. Mac Cloning
Some ISPs require a fixed MAC address for establishing the Internet connection. You can
use the Mac Clone option in such cases. Enable it from the WAN menu. Press Fill My Mac
to automatically detect the mac address of your computer.

Wireless Settings
1. Basic Settings
This menu provides the simplest WiFi settings like SSID, Channel, Broadcast Mode etc.
•WiFi On/Off: Use this button to turn on/off the radio
•Network Mode: The product supports 3 WiFi modes
–b/g/n mixed: All three channels (b, g, n) of 802.11 standard will be used.
–b only: Only b channel of 802.11 WiFi mode will be used
–g only: Only g channel of 802.11 WiFi mode will be used
•Network Name: This is also known as SSID of an wireless network. You will find this
name in your phone's wireless menu. Check the option Hidden if you do not want the
SSID name to appear in any device's WiFi search result.
•AP Isolation: If enabled, peers cannot communicate within themselves over the
network.
•Frequency (Channel): This product supports 11 (eleven) channels ranged from 1 to
11. This option can be set to Automatic when the router will choose the optimized
channel automatically.
