SETTINGS > FIREWALL > UPNP SETTINGS
•
Universal Plug and Play is a set of networking protocols that permits networked
devices, such as personal computers, printers, Internet gateways, Wi-Fi access
points and mobile devices to seamlessly discover each other's presence on the
network and establish functional network services for data sharing,
communications, and entertainment.
•
UPnP is enabled by default on the LAN side (local) but if you require extra
security you should disable this setting.
•
UPnP is not enabled on the WAN (Network) side.

SETTINGS > INTERNET WI-FI
•
Enable the Wi-Fi router to connect to another Hotspot to share that internet
connection.
•
Internet Wi-Fi or the WAN side on your hotspot refers to the radio network
connection.
•
When the Internet Wi-Fi Switch option is enabled, it is not possible to
disconnect the RF WAN side. The Disconnect button is greyed out. This is
because the Wi-Fi Switch function over-rides the manual disconnect feature.
When you fully connect to another local Wi-Fi hotspot then the WAN side data
(RF connection to the network) is disabled.
•
When you connect to another Wi-Fi hotspot your local WAN is disconnected and
your Wi-Fi hotspot will receive its internet connection from the other hotspot
and share this with all your connected devices.
•
This could be useful at home where your wireless hotspot can connect to your
home Wi-Fi when in range, and it can be used to extend your home Wi-Fi range
by locating the portable hotspot in another location. The devices connected to
your portable hotspot will get their internet connection from the other
connected Wi-Fi hotspot, eg your home network.
