4.12 Wireless LAN
This function is used for “n” models only.
4.12.1 Basic Concepts
Over recent years, the market for wireless communications has enjoyed tremendous growth.
Wireless technology now reaches or is capable of reaching virtually every location on the
surface of the earth. Hundreds of millions of people exchange information every day via
wireless communication products. The Vigor “n” model, a.k.a. Vigor wireless router, is
designed for maximum flexibility and efficiency of a small office/home. Any authorized
staff can bring a built-in WLAN client PDA or notebook into a meeting room for conference
without laying a clot of LAN cable or drilling holes everywhere. Wireless LAN enables high

mobility so WLAN users can simultaneously access all LAN facilities just like on a wired
LAN as well as Internet access.
The Vigor wireless routers are equipped with a wireless LAN interface compliant with the
standard IEEE 802.11n protocol. To boost its performance further, the Vigor Router is also
loaded with advanced wireless technology to lift up data rate up to 300 Mbps*. Hence, you
can finally smoothly enjoy stream music and video.
Note
:
*
The actual data throughput will vary according to the network conditions and
environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, network overhead and
building materials.
In an Infrastructure Mode of wireless network, Vigor wireless router plays a role as an
Access Point (AP) connecting to lots of wireless clients or Stations (STA). All the STAs will
share the same Internet connection via Vigor wireless router. The
General Settings
will set
up the information of this wireless network, including its SSID as identification, located
channel etc.
Security Overview
Real-time Hardware Encryption:
Vigor Router is equipped with a hardware AES
encryption engine so it can apply the highest protection to your data without influencing user
experience.
Complete Security Standard Selection:
To ensure the security and privacy of your wireless
communication, we provide several prevailing standards on market.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a legacy method to encrypt each frame transmitted via
radio using either a 64-bit or 128-bit key. Usually access point will preset a set of four keys
and it will communicate with each station using only one out of the four keys.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), the most dominating security mechanism in industry, is
separated into two categories: WPA-personal or called WPA Pre-Share Key (WPA/PSK),
and WPA-Enterprise or called WPA/802.1x.
In WPA-Personal, a pre-defined key is used for encryption during data transmission. WPA
applies Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) for data encryption while WPA2 applies
AES. The WPA-Enterprise combines not only encryption but also authentication.

Since WEP has been proved vulnerable, you may consider using WPA for the most secure
connection. You should select the appropriate security mechanism according to your needs.
No matter which security suite you select, they all will enhance the over-the-air data
protection and /or privacy on your wireless network. The Vigor wireless router is very
flexible and can support multiple secure connections with both WEP and WPA at the same
time.
Separate the Wireless and the Wired LAN- WLAN Isolation
enables you to isolate your
wireless LAN from wired LAN for either quarantine or limit access reasons. To isolate
means neither of the parties can access each other. To elaborate an example for business use,
you may set up a wireless LAN for visitors only so they can connect to Internet without
hassle of the confidential information leakage. For a more flexible deployment, you may add
filters of MAC addresses to isolate users’ access from wired LAN.
Manage Wireless Stations - Station List
will display all the station in your wireless
network and the status of their connection.
Below shows the menu items for Wireless LAN.

4.12.2 General Setup
By clicking the
General Settings
, a new web page will appear so that you could configure
the SSID and the wireless channel. Please refer to the following figure for more information.
Enable Wireless LAN
Check the box to enable wireless function.
Mode
At present, the router can connect to Mixed (11b+11g), 11g
Only, 11b Only, Mixed (11g+11n), 11n Only and Mixed
(11b+11g+11n) stations simultaneously. Simply choose Mix
(11b+11g+11n) mode.

setup. The default
setting of this filed is blank and the function will always work.
Hide SSID
Check it to prevent from wireless sniffing and make it harder
for unauthorized clients or STAs to join your wireless LAN.
Depending on the wireless utility, the user may only see the
information except SSID or just cannot see any thing about
Vigor wireless router while site surveying. The system allows
you to set four sets of SSID for different usage. In default, the
first set of SSID will be enabled. You can hide it for your
necessity.
SSID
Means the identification of the wireless LAN. SSID can be
any text numbers or various special characters. The default
SSID is "Draytek. We suggest you to change it.
Isolate
LAN
– Check this box to make the wireless clients (stations)
with the same SSID cannot access wired PCs on LAN.
Member
–Check this box to make the wireless clients
(stations) with the same SSID not accessing for each other.
VPN –
Check this box to isolate the wireless clients with
remote dial-in and LAN to LAN VPN.
Channel
Means the channel of frequency of the wireless LAN. The
default channel is 6. You may switch channel if the selected
channel is under serious interference. If you have no idea of
choosing the frequency, please select Auto to let system
determine for you.
Long Preamble
This option is to define the length of the sync field in an
802.11 packet. Most modern wireless network uses short
preamble with 56 bit sync filed instead of long preamble with
128 bit sync field. However, some original 11b wireless
network devices only support long preamble. Check it to use
Long Preamble
if needed to communicate with this kind of
devices.
