Configuration
When you click this item, you get following sub-items to configure the ADSL router.
LAN, WAN, System, Firewall, VPN, QoS, Virtual Server, Time Schedule
and
Advanced
These functions are described below in the following sections.
LAN (Local Area Network)
There are seven items within the LAN section:
Ethernet, Ethernet Client Filter, Wireless, Wireless
Security, Wireless Client Filter, Port Setting
and
DHCP Server
.
Ethernet
The router supports two Ethernet IP addresses in the LAN, and two different LAN subnets through
which you can access the Internet at the same time. Users usually only have one subnet in their
LAN, so there is no need to configure a Secondary IP address. The default IP address for the
router is 192.168.1.254.
RIP:
RIP v1, RIP v2, and RIP v2 Multicast. Check to enable RIP function.

Ethernet Client Filter
The Ethernet Client Filter supports up to 16 Ethernet network machines that helps you to manage
your network control to accept traffic from specific authorized machines or can restrict unwanted
machine(s) to access your LAN.
There are no pre-define Ethernet MAC address filter rules; you can add the filter rules to meet your
requirements.
Ethernet Client Filter:
Default setting is set to
Disable
.
~
Allowed:
check to authorize specific device accessing your LAN by insert the MAC
Address in the space provided or click
.
Make sure your PC’s MAC is listed.
~
Blocked:
check to prevent unwanted device accessing your LAN by insert the MAC
Address in the space provided or click
. Make sure your PC’s MAC is not listed.
The maximum client is 16.
The MAC addresses are 6 bytes long; they are presented only in
hexadecimal characters.
The number
0

9
and letters
a

Active PC in LAN displays a list of individual Ethernet device’s IP Address & MAC Address which
connecting to the router.
You can easily by checking the box next to the IP address to be blocked or allowed. Then,

Wireless (Wireless Router Only)
Parameters
WLAN Service:
Default setting is set to
Enable
.
If you do not have any wireless, both 802.11g
and 802.11b, device in your network, select
Disable.
Mode:
The default setting is
802.11b+g
(Mixed mode). If you do not know or have both 11g and
11b devices in your network, then keep the default in
mixed mode
.
From the drop-down manual,
you can select
802.11g
if you have only 11g card.
If you have only 11b card, then select
802.11b
.
ESSID:
The ESSID is the unique name of a wireless access point (AP) to be distinguished from
another.
For security propose, change the default
wlan-ap
to
a unique ID name to the AP which is
already built-in to the router’s wireless interface. It is case sensitive and must not excess 32
characters. Make sure your wireless clients have exactly the ESSID as the device, in order to get
connected to your network.
(Note:
It is case sensitive and must not excess 32 characters.)
ESSID Broadcast:
It is function in which transmits its ESSID to the air so that when wireless
client searches for a network, router can then be discovered and recognized. Default setting is
Enable.
~
Disable: I
f you do not want broadcast your ESSID.
Any client uses “any” wireless setting
cannot discover the Access Point (AP) of your router.
~
Enable:
Any client that using the “any” setting can discover the Access Point (AP) in
Regulation Domain:
There are seven Regulation Domains for you to choose from, including
North America (N.America)
,
Europe
,
France
, etc. The Channel ID will be different based on this
setting.
Channel ID:
Select the ID channel that you would like to use.
Connected:
Representing in
true
or
false
. That it is the connection status between the system
and the build-in wireless card.
AP MAC Address:
It is a unique hardware address of the Access Point.
AP Firmware Version:
The Access Point firmware version.

Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
It is a wireless access point mode that enables wireless link and communication with other access point.
It is easy to be installed simply define peer’s MAC address of the connected AP.
WDS takes
advantages of cost saving and flexibility which no extra wireless client device is required to bridge
between two access points and extending an existing wired or wireless infrastructure network to create a
larger network.
In addition, WDS enhances its link connection security in WEP mode, WEP key encryption must be the
same for both access points.
WDS Service:
The default setting is
Disable.
Check
Enable
radio button to activate this function.
Peer WDS MAC Address:
It is the associated AP’s MAC Address.
It is important that your peer’s
AP must include your MAC address in order to acknowledge and communicate with each other.
(
Note
:
For MAC Address, Semicolon (
:
) must be included)
