Advanced_Wi-Fi PROTECTED SETUP
Wi-Fi Protected Setup
Enable
Enable the Wi-Fi Protected Setup feature.

changed by any new external registrar using its PIN. Devices can still be
added to the wireless network using Wi-Fi Protected Setup. It is still possible
to change wireless network settings with
Manual Wireless Network Setup
, or

, or an existing external WLAN Manager
Registrar.

PIN Settings
A PIN is a unique number that can be used to add the router to an existing network
or to create a new network. The default PIN is printed on the bottom of the router.
For extra security, a new PIN can be generated. You can restore the default PIN at
any time. Only the Administrator ("admin" account) can change or reset the PIN.
Current PIN
Shows the current value of the router's PIN.
Reset PIN to Default
Restore the default PIN of the router.
Generate New PIN
Create a random number that is a valid PIN. This becomes the router's PIN.
You can then copy this PIN to the user interface of the registrar.
Add Wireless Station
This Wizard helps you add wireless devices to the wireless network.
The wizard will either display the wireless network settings to guide you through
manual configuration, prompt you to enter the PIN for the device, or ask you to press
the configuration button on the device. If the device supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup
and has a configuration button, you can add it to the network by pressing the
configuration button on the device and then on the router within 60 seconds. The
WPS status LED on the router will become solid if the device has been successfully
added to the network.
There are several ways to add a wireless device to your network. Access to the
wireless network is controlled by a “registrar”. A registrar only allows devices onto
the wireless network if you have entered the PIN, or pressed a special Wi-Fi
Protected Setup button on the device. The router acts as a registrar for the network,
although other devices may act as a registrar as well.
Add Wireless Device Wizard
Start the wizard.

Enable Remote Management
Enabling Remote Management allows you to manage the router from anywhere on
the Internet. Disabling Remote Management allows you to manage the router only
from computers on your LAN.
Remote Admin Port
The port that you will use to address the management interface from the Internet. For
example, if you specify port 1080 here, then, to access the router from the Internet,
you would use a URL of the form:
.

the filter you need in the list of filters, go to the
Advanced
→
Inbound Filter
screen
and create a new filter.
