Bandwidth Control
Use an independent bandwidth and enjoy a good Internet
experience without being affected by other users who are
sharing the same router.
For example
, my roommate and I share 512Kbps Upstream
Bandwidth and 8Mbps Downstream Bandwidth via this router,
she likes to watch live show and play online games, which may
take up much bandwidth. I don’t want to be affected, so we
agree to equally distribute the bandwidth. Our IP addresses are
To use the bandwidth control feature, you’d better set static
IP Address on each computer to be controlled or configure
Address reservation on the modem router in order to manage
easily. About how to configure address reservation, please refer
to

Bandwidth Control
1 )
IP Range:
Enter the IP address. The field can be single IP
address or IP address range according to your demands.
When you configure the single IP address, the computer
with
this
IP
address
will
get
independent
given
bandwidth. When you configure the IP address range, all
computers in the range will share the given bandwidth.
2 )
Port Range:
Keep the default settings. The default port
range of TCP protocol or UDP protocol is from 1 to 65535.
3 )
Protocol:
Keep the default setting. Or you can choose the
TCP protocol or UDP protocol or both of them.
4 )
Priority:
Keep the default setting. You can change the
value if you want to first guarantee the bandwidth for
one computer. The smaller value has the higher priority.
5 )
Upstream/Downstream:
Enter the bandwidth according
to your division.
6 ) Check to enable this entry and click
OK
to save the
settings.

Follow the steps above to add a rule for the other computer.

Network Security
This chapter guides you on how to protect your home network from unauthorized
users by implementing these three network security functions. You can block or allow
specific client devices to access your wireless network using MAC Filtering, or using
Access Control for wired and wireless networks, or you can prevent ARP spoofing and
ARP attacks using IP & MAC Binding.

MAC Filtering
This function exploits the uniqueness of the MAC (Medium Access Control) address,
a unique 12-digit hexadecimal address (for example, D8:5D:4C:B4:46:EA) of every
network device, to determine if the device can or cannot access your wireless network.
Prevent unauthorized users from accessing my wireless network
by utilizing the network device’s MAC address and IP address.
For example
, I have a computer that is connected to my wireless
network. Now, an unknown device (an intruder) is also using my
wireless network, which affects my Internet speed. I would like
to control my wireless network with the following capabilities:
• My computer is always allowed to access the wireless network.
• The unknown device is not allowed to access the wireless
network.
• I don’t have to keep changing my wireless password as often.
