secondary DNS server addresses.

i Parental Controls: If user registers and gets a DNS account in the parental control provider website,

expecting to enjoy a more reliable and safer internet surfing environment, please select this option

(need to configure at Parental Control Provider).

IPv6

Obtain IPv6 DNS info from a WAN interface

WAN Interface selected: Select one configured IPv6 WAN connection from the menu to be as an IPv6

DNS.

Static DNS IPv6 Address

Primary IPv6 DNS Server / Secondary IPv6 DNS Server

: Type the specific primary and secondary

IPv6 DNS Server address. If you don’t need the service, select the item you want to remove, check the

checkbox, then press Remove, it will be OK. Press Edit button to re-edit this service settings.

Here the corresponding WAN Service have been configured, if it is OK, you can access the internet.

You can go to Status > WAN or Summary to view the WAN connection information (if your ISP

provides IPv6 service, then you will obtain an IPv6 address).

IP over Ethernet

Description

: User-defined description for the connection, commonly for friendly use.

802.1P Priority

: The parameter indicates the frame priority level from 0 owest) to 7 (highest), which

can be used to prioritize different classes of traffic (voice, video, data, etc). Enter the priority

identification, tagged: 0-1, untagged: -1.

802.1Q VLAN ID

: It is a parameter to specify the VLAN which the frame belongs. Enter the VLAN ID

identification, tagged: 0-4094, untagged : -1.

Here two modes are supported for users to deal with the IP and DNS. You can select obtain

automatically or manually input the information according to your ISP.

Obtain an IP address automatically

: Check whether to enable this function.

Option 60 Vendor ID:

Enter the associated information by your ISP. This option is used by DHCP

clients to optionally identify the vendor type and configuration of a DHCP client. The information is a

string of n octets, interpreted by servers. Vendors may choose to define specific vendor class

identifiers to convey particular configuration or other identification information about a client.

Option 61 Client ID

: Enter the associated information provided by your ISP.

Option 125

: Option 125 is a complementary standard of DHCP protocol, it is used to encapsulate

option 125 message into DHCP offer packet before forward it to clients. After the clients receive the

packet, it check the option 125 field in the packet with the pre-stored message, if it is matched, then

the client accepts this offer, otherwise it will be abandoned. Check Enable or Disable this function.

Default setting is Disable.

WAN IP Address

: Enter your IPv4 address to the device provided by your ISP.

WAN Subnet Mask

: Enter your submask to the device provided by your ISP.

WAN gateway IP Address:

Enter your gateway IP address to the device provided by your ISP.

IPv6 for this service

: Enable to use IPv6 service.

68

Obtain an IPv6 address automatically

: check whether to enable or disable this feature.

WAN IPv6 Address/Prefix Length

: Enter the WAN IPv6 Address/Prefix Length from your ISP.

WAN Next-Hop IPv6 Address

: Enter the WAN Next-Hop IPv6 Address from your ISP.

Note

: If you don’t know well about the DHCP Option, you can leave it empty or leave it as default.

NAT

: The NAT (Network Address Translation) feature allows multiple users to access the Internet

through a single IP account by sharing the single IP address. If users on your LAN have their own

public IP addresses to access the Internet, NAT function can be disabled. When enabled, a Fullcone

NAT parameter will appear, you can determine whether to enable Fullcone NAT. While only NAT

enabled, the default NAT type Port-Restricted cone NAT will be used.

Fullcone NAT

: Enable or disable fullcone NAT. Fullcone is a kind of NAT, in this mode, all requests

from the same internal IP address and port are mapped to the same external IP address and port.

Furthermore, any external host can send a packet to the internal host, by sending a packet to the

mapped external address.

Firewall

: Enable to drop all traffic from WAN side. If enabled, all incoming packets by default would be

dropped, and please turn to IP Filtering Incoming to add allowing rules.

IGMP Multicast: IGMP (Internet Group Membership Protocol) is a protocol used by IP hosts to report

their multicast group memberships to any immediately neighboring multicast routers. Check this item

to enable IGMP multicast on that WAN interface for multicast forwarding.

MLD Multicast Proxy

: check whether to enable this function. MLD (Multicast Listener Discovery

Protocol) Proxy intercepts the MLD request from Clients a set up the multicast-forwarding table.

it

takes

over

some

of

the

router’s

job,

simplifying

the

router’s

job

and

multicast

communication.

Support MLDv1 and MLDv2.

MTU

: Maximum Transmission Unit, the size of the largest datagram (excluding media-specific

headers) that IP will attempt to send through the interface.

MAC Spoofing

: This option is required by some service providers specifying some specific MAC

allowed to join in network. You must fill in the MAC address specified by your service provider when

this information is required.

Bridging

Description

: User-defined description for the connection, commonly for friendly use.

802.1P Priority

: The parameter indicates the frame priority level from 0 owest) to 7 (highest), which

can be used to prioritize different classes of traffic (voice, video, data, etc). Enter the priority

identification, tagged: 0-1, untagged: -1.

802.1Q VLAN ID

: It is a parameter to specify the VLAN which the frame belongs. Enter the VLAN ID

identification, tagged: 0-4094, untagged : -1.

C) 3G/LTE

Select 3G/4G/LTE to configure the route to enjoy the mobility. By default the 3G/4G/LTE interface is

on, user can edit the parameters to meet your own requirements.

Click Edit button to enter the 3G/LTE configuration page.

Failover

: If enabled, the 3G/LTE will work in failover mode and be brought up only when there is no

active default route. In this mode, 3G/LTE work as a backup for the WAN connectivity. While if

disabled, 3G/LTE serves as a normal interface, and can only be brought up when it has been

configured to achieve a mobile connectivity.

Mode

: There are 6 options of phone service standards: GSM 2G only, UTMS 3G only, GSM 2G

preferred, UMTS 3G preferred, Automatic, and Use 3G/LTE 3g dongle settings. If you are uncertain

what services are available to you, and then please select Automatic.

TEL No.:

The dial string to make a 3G/4G/LTE user internetworking call. It may provide by your mobile

service provider.

APN

: An APN is similar to a URL on the WWW, it is what the unit makes a GPRS / UMTS call. The

service provider is able to attach anything to an APN to create a data connection, requirements for

APNs varies between different service providers. Most service providers have an internet portal which

70

they use to connect to a DHCP Server, thus giving you access to the internet i.e. some 3G operators

use the APN ‘internet’ for their portal. The default value is “internet”.

Username/Password

: Enter the username and password provided by your service provider. The

username and password are case sensitive.

Authentication Protocol: Default is Auto. Please consult your service provider on whether to use PAP,

CHAP or MSCHAP.

PIN:

PIN stands for Personal Identification Number. A PIN code is a numeric value used in certain

systems as a password to gain access, and authenticate. In mobile phones a PIN code locks the SIM

card until you enter the correct code. If you enter the PIN code incorrectly into the phone 3 times in a

row, then the SIM card will be blocked and you will require a PUK code from your network/ service

provider.

Dial on Demand

: If you want to make UMTS/GPRS call only when there is a packet requesting

access to the Internet (i.e. when a program on your computer attempts to access the Internet). In this

mode, you must set Idle Timeout value at same time. Click on Connect on Demand, the Idle Timeout

field will display.

Keep Alive:

Check Enable to allow the router to send message out every 7 seconds (can be changed

base on need) to prevent the connection being dropped by ISP.

IP Address

: The IP address is used to “ping”, and router will ping the IP to find whether the connection

is still on.

NAT:

Check to enable the NAT function.

Firewall

: Enable to drop all traffic from WAN side. If enabled, all incoming packets by default would be

dropped, and please turn to IP Filtering Incoming to add allowing rules.

MTU:

MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) is the size of the largest datagram that IP will attempt to

send through the interface.

Select default gateway interfaces

: Select from the interfaces the default gateway, here commonly

we select ppp3g0.
