±

SSID Broadcast:

Select “Disable” to hide your SSID. When disabled, no wireless

clients will be able to see your wireless network when they perform a scan to

see what’s available. If they want to connect to your router, they will have to

first know this SSID and then manually enter it on their devices. By default, this

option is enabled.

±

SSID:

A SSID (Service Set Identifier) is the unique name of a wireless network

(changeable).

±

802.11 Mode:

Select a right mode according to your wireless client. The default

mode is 11a/n.

±

Channel:

The Channel can be changed to fit the channel setting for an existing

wireless network or to customize the wireless network. From the drop-down

list

you can select a most effective channel. You can also select “Auto Select” to

let system detect and choose one that best fits your network.

∝

WMM-Capable:

Enabling this option may boost transmission capacity of

wireless multimedia data (such as online video play).

∝

ASPD Capable:

Select to enable/disable the auto power saving mode.

Wireless Security

This section allows you to encrypt both 2.4GHz wireless and 5GHz wireless

networks to block unauthorized accesses and malicious packet sniffing.

To config wireless security settings for 2.4GHz network, enter page below:

Available

options

for

security

mode

include

“Open”,

“Shared”,

“WPA-PSK”,

“WPA2-PSK”, “Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK”. See below for details.

1. OPEN/SHARED

WEP is intended to provide data confidentiality comparable to that of a traditional

wired network. Two methods of authentication can be used with WEP: Open

System authentication and Shared Key authentication.

±

Security Mode:

Select a proper security mode from the drop-down menu.

±

Default Key:

Select one key from the 4 preset keys to encrypt wireless data on

the network.

2. WPA-PSK

The WPA protocol implements the majority of the IEEE 802.11i standard. It

enhances data encryption through the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)

which is a 128-bit per-packet key, meaning that it dynamically generates a new key

for each packet. WPA also includes a message integrity check feature to prevent

data packets from being hampered with. Only authorized network users can access

the wireless network.

±

Cipher Type:

Select either AES (advanced encryption standard) or TKIP

(temporary key integrity protocol) type.

±

Security Key:

Enter a security key

，

which must be between 8-63 ASCII

characters.

±

Key Renewal Interval:

Enter a valid time period for the key.

3. WPA2-PSK

The later WPA2 protocol features compliance with the full IEEE 802.11i standard

and uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) in addition to TKIP encryption

protocol to guarantee better security than that provided by WEP or WPA.

±

Cipher Type:

Select one cipher type from AES (advanced encryption standard),

TKIP (temporary key integrity protocol) or TKIP&AES.

±

Security Key:

Enter a security key

，

which must be between 8-63 ASCII

characters.

±

Key Renewal Interval:

Enter a valid time period for the key.

WPS Settings

Wi-Fi Protected Setup makes it easy for home users who know little of wireless

security to establish a secure wireless home network, as well as to add new devices

to an existing network without entering long passphrases or configuring

complicated settings. Simply enter a PIN code or press the software PBC button or

hardware WPS button (if any) and a secure wireless connection is established.

±

Enable WPS: Select to enable/disable the WPS encryption.

±

WPS Mode: Select PBC (Push-Button Configuration) or PIN.

±

Reset OOB: When clicked, the WPS LED turns off; WPS function will be disabled

automatically; WPS server on the Router enters idle mode and will not respond

to client’s WPS connection request.

Operation Instructions

PBC:

If you find the WPS LED blinking for 2 minutes after you press the hardware

WPS button on the device, it means that PBC encryption method is successfully

enabled. And an authentication will be performed between your router and the

WPS/PBC-enabled wireless client device during this time; if it succeeds, the wireless

client device connects to your device, and the WPS LED turns off. Repeat steps

mentioned above if you want to connect more wireless client devices to the device.

：

To use this option, you must know the PIN code from the wireless client and

enter it in corresponding field on your device while using the same PIN code on

client side for such connection.

Note:

The WPS encryption can be implemented only between your Router and

another WPS-capable device.

4.5.4

WDS Settings

WDS (Wireless Distribution System) feature can be used to extend your existing

2.4G or 5G wireless network coverage. Here we present you how to config such

feature in 2.4GHz, which also apply to 5GHz.

Select Repeater Mode to display below page:

±

AP MAC Address:

Enter the MAC address of a wireless link partner or populate

this field using the Open Scan option.

±

WDS Mode:

Select Disable or Repeater Mode.

For example: If you want to implement the WDS feature on 2 N60 routers labeled

N60-1 and N60-2 respectively, then first select “Repeater Mode” and follow steps

below:

1. If you already know N60-2’s MAC address, then you can manually enter it on

N60-1 and click “Save”.

2. Or you can use the Open Scan option.

1) Click the “Open Scan” button to search and select N60-2’s SSID, confirm on the

appearing dialogue box and then click “Save”. N60-2’s MAC address will be added

automatically.
