Beacon Interval:
Enter a value between 25 and 1000 in milliseconds to determine the
duration between which beacon packets are broadcasted by the router to synchronize
the wireless network. The default is 100 milliseconds.
RTS Threshold:
Enter a value between 1 and 2346 to determine the packet size of
data transmission through the router. By default, the RTS (Request to Send) Threshold
size is 2346. If the packet size is greater than the preset threshold, the router sends
Request to Send frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending
of a data frame, or else the packet will be sent immediately.
DTIM Interval:
Enter a value between 1 and 255 to determine the interval of the
Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). 1 indicates the DTIM Interval is the same
as
Beacon Interval
.
Group Key Update Period:
Enter the number of seconds to control the time interval
for the encryption key automatic renewal. The default is 0, indicating no key renewal.
Enable WMM:
This feature guarantees the packets with high-priority messages being
transmitted preferentially. WMM is enabled compulsively under 802.11n or 802.11ac
mode. It is strongly recommended to enable WMM.
Enable Short GI:
This feature is enabled by default and recommended to increase the
data capacity by reducing the Guard Interval (GI) time.
AP Isolation:
Select this checkbox to enable the AP Isolation feature that allows you to
confine and restrict all wireless devices on your network from interacting with each
other, but still able to access the Internet. AP isolation is disabled by default.

Set Up a Dynamic DNS Service Account
Most ISPs (Internet service providers) assign a dynamic IP address to the router and
you can use this IP address to access your router remotely. However, the IP address can
change any time and you don’t know when it changes. In this case, you might need
the DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) feature on the router to allow you and your
friends to access your router and local servers (FTP, HTTP, etc.) using domain name, in
no need of checking and remembering the IP address.
Note:
DDNS does not work if the ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.1.x) to the modem router.
To set up DDNS, please follow the instructions below:
Visit
http://tplinkmodem.net
, and log in with the password you set for the modem
router.
Go to
Advanced
>
Network
>
Dynamic DNS.
Select the
DDNS service provider
(Dyndns or NO-IP). If you don’t have a DDNS
account, select a service provider and click
Go to register
.
Enter the username, password and domain name of the account (such as lisa.ddns.
net).
Click
Login
and
Save
.
Tips:
If you want to use a new DDNS account, please Logout first, then login with the new account.

working devices from others while keep all devices’ access to
the Internet.
