Safety Precautions
Follow the following instructions to prevent the device from risks and damage caused by fire
or electric power:
•Use volume labels to mark the type of power.
•Use the power adapter packed within the device package.
•Pay attention to the power load of the outlet or prolonged lines. An overburden
power outlet or damaged lines and plugs may cause electric shock or fire accident. Check
the power cords regularly. If you find any damage, replace it at once.
•Proper space left for heat dissipation is necessary to avoid damage caused by overheating
to the device. The long and thin holes on the device are designed for heat dissipation to
ensure that the device works normally. Do not cover these heat dissipation holes.
•Do not put this device close to a place where a heat source exists or high temperature
occurs. Avoid the device from direct sunshine.
•Do not put this device close to a place where it is over damp or watery. Do not spill any
fluid on this device.
•Do not connect this device to any PCs or electronic products, unless our customer engineer
or your broadband provider instructs you to do this, because any wrong connection
may cause power or fire risk.
•Do not place this device on an unstable surface or support.

Hardware Installation
Following figure shows the connection of the router to the different elements of the network.
Connection diagram (Connecting a telephone set before the splitter)
Note:

The filter must be installed close to the telephone cable. See Figure2. Do not use the
splitter to replace the filter.
Installing a telephone directly before the splitter may lead to failure of connection between the
device and the central office, or failure of Internet access, or slow connection speed. If you really
need to add a telephone set before the splitter, you must add a micro filter before a telephone
set. Do not connect several telephones before the splitter or connect several telephones with
the micro filter.

not be changed unless you know exactly what will happen for the changes you made on your DSL
device. Please refer to the section – Advance settings for details.
Fields in this page:

Field
Description
Authentication Type
Open System:
Open System authentication is not required
to be successful while a client may decline to authenticate
with any particular other client.
Shared Key: Shared Key is only available if the WEP option
is implemented. Shared Key authentication supports
authentication of clients as either a member of those who
know a shared secret key or a member of those who do not.
IEEE 02.11 Shared Key authentication accomplishes this
without the need to transmit the secret key in clear.
Requiring the use of the WEP privacy mechanism.
Auto: Auto is the default authentication algorithm. It will
change its authentication type automatically to fulfill client’s
requirement.
Fragment Threshold
This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. It
specifies the maximum size for a packet before data is
fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a high
packet error rate, you may slightly increases the “Fragment
Threshold” value within the value range of 256 to 2346.
Setting this value too low may result in poor network
performance. Only minor modifications of this value are
recommended.
RTS Thresho
ld
This value should remain at its default setting of 234 . Should you
encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are
recommended. If a network packet is smaller than the preset “RTS
threshold” size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The ADSL
modem (or AP) sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving
station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS,
the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to
acknowledge the right to begin transmission.
Beacon Interval
The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon.
Enter a value between 20 and 1024. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the
ADSL modem
(Or AP) to synchronize the wireless network. The default is 100.
Data Rate
The rate of data transmission should be set depending on the speed of your
wireless network. You should select from a range of transmission speeds, or
you can select Auto to have the ADSL modem (or AP) automatically use the
fastest possible data rate and enable the Auto-Fallback feature. Auto-
Fallback will negotiate the best possible connection speed between the AP
and a wireless client. The default setting is Auto.

Preamble Type
The Preamble Type defines the length of the CRC (Cyclic Redundan
cy Check)
block for communication between the AP and mobile wireless stations.
Make sure to select the appropriate preamble type. Note that high network
traffic areas should use the short preamble type. CRC is a common
technique for detecting data transmission errors.
Broadcast SSID
If this option is enabled, the device will automatically transmit their network
name (SSID) into open air at regular interval. This feature is intended to
allow clients to dynamically discover and roam between WLANs; if this
option is disabled, the device will hide its SSID. When this is done, the
station cannot directly discover its WLAN and MUST be configure with the
SSID. Note that in a home Wi-Fi network, roaming is largely unnecessary
and the SSID broadcast feature serves n
o useful purpose. You should disable
this feature to improve the security of your WLAN.
Relay Blocking
When
Relay Blocking
is enabled, wireless clients will not be able to directly
access other wireless clients.
VMM support
WMM is a QoS solution with ind
ustry
-
wide support that offers strong
interoperability, meets the requirements of all market segments, and has
global reach. It is available now and will be interoperable with 802.11e. The
Wi-Fi Alliance has launched a WMM certification program that establishes a
solid foundation for the growth of the Wi-Fi multimedia market, and that
facilitates the development of interoperable devices and applications with
QoS capabilities. At the same time, WMM greatly improves the end-user
experience and enables a wider, more efficient use of Wi-Fi networks
everywhere.

Security
This screen allows you to setup the wireless security. Turn on WEP or WPA by using encryption
keys could prevent any unauthorized access to your WLAN. Please refer to the section – Security
for details.

Fields in this page:
Field
Description
Encryption
There are 4 types of security to be selected. To secure your WLAN, it’s
strongly recommended to enable this feature.
WEP: Make sure that all wireless devices on your network are using the
same encryption level and key. Click Set WEP Key button to set the
encryption key.
WPA (T IP): WPA uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) for data
encryption. TKIP utilized a stronger encryption method and incorporates
Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against hackers.
WPA2 (AES): WPA2, also known as 802.11i, uses Advanced Encryption
Standard (AES) for data encryption. AES utilized a symmetric 128-bit block
data encryption.
WAP2 Mixed: The AP supports WPA (TKIP) and WPA2 (AES) for data
encryption.
The actual selection of the encryption methods will depend on the clients.
Use 802.1x
Authentication
Check it to enable 802.1x authentication. This option is selectable only
when the “Encryption” is choose to either None or WEP. If the “Encryption”
is WEP, you need to further select the WEP key length to be either WEP
64bits or WEP 128bits.

WPA Authentication
code
There are 2 types of authentication mode for WPA.
WPA-RADIUS: WPA RADIUS uses an external RADIUS server to perform user
authentication. To use WPA RADIUS, enter the IP address of the RADIUS
server, he RADIUS port (default is 1812) and the shared secret from the
RADIUS server. Please refer to “Authentication RADIUS Server” setting
below for RADIUS setting.
The WPA algorithm is selected between TKIP and AES, please refer to “WPA
cipher Suite” below.
Pre-Shared ey: Pre-Shared Key authentication is based on a shared secret
that is known only by the parties involved. To use WPA Pre-Shared Key,
select key format and enter a password in the “Pre-Shared Key Format” and
“Pre-Shared Key” setting respectively. Please refer to “Pre-Shared Key
Format” and “Pre-Shared Key” setting below.

wireless MAC address are in the access control list will be able to connect to your DSL device (or AP).
Please refer to the section – Access control for details.
