Quality of Service

Advanced > Setup > QoS

This section allows you to configure the router QoS settings and prioritize specific traffic

to and from specific IP addresses. There are 5 priority queues (Highest, High, Medium,

Low, Lowest) for inbound (LAN-WAN) and outbound traffic (WAN-LAN) that can be

manually defined.

Note:

Configuring this feature assumes that you have some general

networking knowledge.

1. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 9).

2. Click on

Advanced

, click on

Setup

, and click on

QoS.

3. To enable QoS, first, click the

Enable QoS

drop-down list and select

Enable

Note:

Prioritize ACK will prioritize the confirmation message when using TCP. TPrioritize

ICMP packets will prioritize ICMP requests such as ping for network connectivity testing.

Both of these settings can be left at default Enabled.

4. Then, specify your BW Max or total bandwidth for each Class Setting (Inbound and

Outbound).

Note:

You can use an online Internet speed test tool (ex.

www.speedtest.net

) to

determine your maximum inbound and outbound bandwidth.

Note:

The allocated bandwidth for each priority queue will automatically be calculated

based on the BW Max that you have entered for each class. You can choose to use the

default priority queue settings or make modifications to the % BW max % BW min

settings (% of allocated bandwidth) for each queue. It is recommended to use the default

settings.

Finally, create a QoS rule to specify the Source IP address, Source MAC address, or

Destination IP address, the protocol and port number (service), and priority queue/class

to assign for QoS. Any other traffic that does not otherwise have a QoS rule specified

will automatically default to the priority queue specified in the Default Traffic Class

setting. Click

Add

to apply the setting.

Open a device on your network to the Internet

This router can provide access to devices on your local area network to the Internet

using the Virtual Server, Special Application, method (DMZ NOT recommended).

DMZ

Advanced > Firewall > DMZ

You may want to expose a specific computer or device on your network to the Internet

to allow anyone to access it. Your router includes the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) feature

that makes all the ports and services available on the WAN/Internet side of the router

and forwards them to a single IP address (computer or network device) on your

network. The DMZ feature is an easy way of allowing access from the Internet however,

it is a very

insecure

technology and will open local area network to greater threats from

Internet attacks.

It is strongly recommended to use

Virtual Server

(also called port forwarding, see

“

Virtual Server

” on

page 39) to allow access to your computers or network devices from

the Internet.

1. Make the computer or network device (for which you are establishing a DMZ link) has

a static IP address. Signing up for a Dynamic DNS service (outlined in

Identify Your

Network

section page 34) will provide identification of the

router’s network from the

Internet.

. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 9).

3. Click on

Advanced

and click

Firewall

, then click on

DMZ

4. Select Enable in the

DMZ Settings

section.

5. Enter the IP address you assigned to the computer or network device to expose to the

Internet.

Virtual Server

Advanced > Firewall > Virtual Server

Virtual Server (also called port forwarding) allows you to define specific ports (used or

required by a specific application) and forward them to a single IP address (a computer

or device) on your network. Using this feature is more secure compared to using DMZ

(see

“

DMZ

”

on page 39) in which DMZ forwards all ports instead of only specific ports

used by an application. An example would be forwarding a port to an IP camera

(TRENDnet IP cameras default to HTTP TCP port 80 for remote access web requests) on

your network to be able to view it over the Internet. To open several ports please refer

“

Gaming

”

section on page 42.

Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, to be able to access the Virtual

Server port(s) from the Internet it is recommended to setup Dynamic DNS service

(outlined in

Identify Your Network

section page 34).

1. Log into your router management page (see “

Access your router management page

”

on page 9).

2. Click on

Advanced

and click on

Firewall

, then click on

Virtual Server

3. Select

Enabled

in the

Port Forward Function

drop-down list.

4. Review the virtual server settings.

Check the option to the left most of the entry to enable and uncheck to disable.



Enable

–

Check the option to enable the virtual server.



Protocol

: Select the protocol required for your device.

TCP

UDP.



Public Port

–

Enter the port number used to access the device from the Internet.



LAN IP Address:

Enter the IP address of the device to forward the port (e.g.

192.168.10.101)



Private Port

–

Enter the port number required by your device. Refer to the

connecting device’s documentation for refe

rence to the network port(s) required.

Note:

The Public Port can be assigned a different port number than the Private

Port (also known as port redirection), however it is recommended to use the same

port number for both settings. Please refer to the device documentation to

determine which ports and protocols are required. It is recommended to assign a

static IP address to the device or use DHCP reservation to ensure the IP address of

the device does not change.



Schedule:

The schedule function allows you to define a schedule when the

wireless should be turned on. To define a new schedule, click

Add New

and refer

to page 36

“

Create Schedules

”. After you have created a new schedule, you will

be returned to the page to apply the new schedule. If you encounter issues, click

the drop-down list and the new schedule will be available for selection.

Note:

Before applying scheduling, please ensure your Time settings are configured

correct and you have defined a schedule. See page 35 to configure

Time Settings

and see page 36

“

Create Schedules

”

to create a schedule.

Click

Add

to add the access rule to the

Virtual Server Rules

List.

Note:

Clicking

Cancel

will discard your settings and clear all fields.

Note:

In the

Virtual Server List

, you can edit a rule by clicking

Example: To forward TCP port 80 to your IP camera

Setup DynDNS service (see

Identify Your Network

section page 34).

Access TRENDnet IP Camera management page and forward Port 80 (see product

documentation)

Make sure to configure your network/IP camera to use a static IP address.

Note:

You may need to reference your camera documentation on configuring a static IP

address.

Special Applications

Advanced > Firewall > Special Applications

Application rules (also called port triggering) is typically used for online gaming

applications or communication applications that require a range of ports or several

ports to be dynamically opened on request to a device on your network. The router will

wait for a request on a specific port or range of ports (or trigger port/port range) from a

device on your network and once a request is detected by your router, the router will

forward a single port or multiple ports (or incoming port/port range) to the device on

your network. This feature is not typically used as most devices and routers currently

use UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) to automatically configure your router to allow

access

for applications. See “

Enable/disable UPnP on your router

” on

page 33.

Note:

Please refer to the device documentation to determine if your device supports

UPnP first, before configuring this feature.
