WPS

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)

provides easy procedure to make network connection

between wireless station and wireless access point (vigor router) with the encryption of

WPA and WPA2.

If you choose WPS as the security configuration, you can press Start WPS PIN and Start WPS

PBC to complete the wireless connection.

Configure via Push Button

Click

Start PBC

to invoke Push-Button style WPS setup

procedure. The router will wait for WPS requests from wireless

clients about two minutes. The WPS LED on the router will

blink fast when WPS is in progress. It will return to normal

condition after two minutes. (You need to setup WPS within

two minutes)

Configure via Client PinCode

Type the PIN code specified in wireless client you wish to

connect, and click

Start PIN

button. The WLAN LED on the

router will blink fast when WPS is in progress. It will return to

normal condition after two minutes. (You need to setup WPS

within two minutes)

After finishing the settings here, please click

Next.

Basics of Internet Protocol (IP) Network

IP means Internet Protocol. Every device in an IP-based Network including routers, print

server, and host PCs, needs an IP address to identify its location on the network. To avoid

address conflicts, IP addresses are publicly registered with the Network Information Centre

(NIC). Having a unique IP address is mandatory for those devices participated in the public

network but not in the private TCP/IP local area networks (LANs), such as host PCs under the

management of a router since they do not need to be accessed by the public. Hence, the NIC

has reserved certain addresses that will never be registered publicly. These are known as

private

IP addresses, and are listed in the following ranges:

From 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255

From 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255

From 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255

What are Public IP Address and Private IP Address

As the router plays a role to manage and further protect its LAN, it interconnects groups of

host PCs. Each of them has a private IP address assigned by the built-in DHCP server of the

Vigor router. The router itself will also use the default

private IP

address: 192.168.1.1 to

communicate with the local hosts. Meanwhile, Vigor router will communicate with other

network devices through a

public IP

address. When the data flow passing through, the

Network Address Translation (NAT) function of the router will dedicate to translate

public/private addresses, and the packets will be delivered to the correct host PC in the local

area network. Thus, all the host PCs can share a common Internet connection.

Get Your Public IP Address from ISP

In ADSL deployment, the PPP (Point to Point)-style authentication and authorization is

required for bridging customer premises equipment (CPE). Point to Point Protocol over

Ethernet (PPPoE) connects a network of hosts via an access device to a remote access

concentrator or aggregation concentrator. This implementation provides users with significant

ease of use. Meanwhile it provides access control, billing, and type of service according to

user requirement.

When a router begins to connect to your ISP, a serial of discovery process will occur to ask for

a connection. Then a session will be created. Your user ID and password is authenticated via

PAP

or

CHAP

with

RADIUS

authentication system. And your IP address, DNS server, and

other related information will usually be assigned by your ISP.

Network Connection by 3G USB Modem

For 3G mobile communication through Access Point is popular more and more, Vigor router

adds the function of 3G network connection for such purpose. By connecting 3G USB Modem

to the USB port of Vigor router, it can support HSDPA/UMTS/EDGE/GPRS/GSM and the

future 3G standard (HSUPA, etc). Vigor router with 3G USB Modem allows you to receive

3G signals at any place such as your car or certain location holding outdoor activity and share

the bandwidth for using by more people. Users can use four LAN ports on the router to access

Internet. Also, they can access Internet via SuperG wireless function of Vigor router, and

enjoy the powerful firewall, bandwidth management, VPN, VoIP features of Vigor router.

After connecting into the router, 3G USB Modem will be regarded as the second WAN port.

However, the original Ethernet WAN still can be used and Load-Balance can be done in the

router. Besides, 3G USB Modem also can be used as backup device. Therefore, when WAN is

not available, the router will use 3.5G for supporting automatically. The supported 3G USB

Modem will be listed on DrayTek web site. Please visit www.draytek.com for more detailed

information.
