WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the simplest way to establish a connection
between the wireless clients and the wireless router. You don’t have to select
the encryption mode and fill in a long encryption passphrase every time when
you try to setup a wireless connection. You only need to press a button on
both wireless client and wireless router, and WPS will do the rest for you.
The wireless router supports two types of WPS: WPS via Push Button and
WPS via PIN code. If you want to use the Push Button, you have to push a
specific button on the wireless client or in the utility of the wireless client to
start the WPS mode, and switch the wireless router to WPS mode. You can
simply push the WPS button of the wireless router, or click the ‘Start to
Process’ button in the web configuration interface. If you want to use the PIN
code, you have to know the PIN code of the wireless client and switch it to
WPS mode, then fill-in the PIN code of the wireless client through the web
configuration interface of the wireless router.

Firewall Settings
The Broadband router provides extensive firewall protection by restricting
connection parameters, thus limiting the risk of hacker attacks, and defending
against a wide array of common Internet attacks. However, for applications that
require unrestricted access to the Internet, you can configure a specific
client/server as a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).
Note
: To enable the Firewall settings select Enable and click Apply

DMZ
If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application (e.g. Games)
properly from behind the NAT firewall, then you can open up the firewall
restrictions to unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining a DMZ Host.
The DMZ function allows you to re-direct all packets going to your WAN port
IP address to a particular IP address in your LAN. The difference between the
virtual server and the DMZ function is that the virtual server re-directs a
particular service/Internet application (e.g. FTP, websites) to a particular LAN
client/server, whereas DMZ re-directs all packets (regardless of services)
going to your WAN IP address to a particular LAN client/server.
Enable DMZ
Enable/disable DMZ
Public IP Address
The IP address of the WAN port or any other Public IP
addresses given to you by your ISP
Client PC IP Address
Fill-in the IP address of a particular host in your LAN
that will receive all the packets originally going to the WAN port/Public IP
address above.
