Setting up wireless security
To protect your wireless network, you need to setup a security mechanism at both DSL-N13 and the wireless
clients.
Network authentication
Network authentication uses certain types of mechanism to identify authenticated wireless clients. DSL-N13
supports the following authentication methods:
Open: This option disables authentication protection for your wireless network. Under the Open mode, any
IEEE802.11b/g wireless client can connect to your wireless network.
Shared: Shared means using the same WEP keys for authentication and encryption.
802.1X: 802.1X uses RADIUS (Remote Access Dial-Up User Service) server to authenticate wireless clients
with a username and password. It can authenticate user with different levels of access right.
WPA: WPA stands for WiFi-Protected Access. WPA provides two security modes for Home/SOHO user and
enterprise network. The former solution adopts Pre-Shared Key for authentication, and the latter
uses the existing 802.1X RADIUS server in the enterprise network to process the authentication
requests.
WPA - PSK: WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) is the solution for home and SOHO users who have no 802.11X
authentication server within the LAN. To setup WPA-PSK, you need to input a passphrase and
let the system generate the key. Combination of letters, numbers and non-alphanumeric
characters is recommended for ensuring security.
Encryption
Encryption is used to convert plain text data into unreadable codes with certain type of algorithm before
capsulation for wireless transmission. DSL-N13 supports the following encryption methods:
WEP: WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It uses 64 or 128-bit static keys. You can let the system
generate the WEP keys by inputting a Passphrase.
TKIP: Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) dynamically generates unique keys to encypt every data
packet in a wireless session.
AES: Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a dependable encryption adopted in WPA2 or IEEE802.11i
standard. It offers stronger protection and greatly increases the complexity of wireless
encryption.
TKIP + AES: For a network where WPA clients (using TKIP encryption) and WPA2 clients (using AES
encryption) co-exist. Select this option to enable both.

Setting up access right to DSL-N13
To protect your wired and wireless LAN, we recommend setting up access protection so as to prevent
DSL-N13 from being viewed or modified by unauthenticated users.
Service restriction
DSL-N13 provides a Service Control List (SCL) that can enable or disable services which are used to access
the router configuration interface. You can choose allowing HTTP, ICMP from WAN, or allowing HTTP from
LAN. After configuration is complete, click Save/Apply to activate the settings.
IP address restriction
To protect the router from being accessed by unauthenticated user in your LAN, you can restrict the access
right to the hosts with certain IP addresses. Click Management -> Access Control -> IP Addresses to setup
the IP address for the authenticated network supervisors.
Before setting up the IP address restriction, make sure addresses of authenticated hosts are static.
Password protection
DSL-N13 ADSL also provides three levels of access right: admin, support, and user. Account "admin" has full
access to change and view configuration of the router, "support" is for ISP technician to view and keep
maintenance to the router, "user" can view the router settings and statistics, as well as to update the
software.
1. Click Management -> Access Control -> Passwords in the left side menu to setup passwords for these
accounts.
2. Select the account username and fill in old password, and new password (twice). Each passwords
contains up to 16 characters or digits.

Setting up virtual server
Virtual server allows directing WAN incoming traffic to hosts or servers using private IP addresses within a
LAN. With virtual server, the router checks the port number of the packets sent to the WAN interface,
translates the port numbers into private IP address, and redirects the packets to the corresponding internal
hosts and servers. DSL-N13 supports up to 32 virtual server entries. To set up virtual server:
1. Click Advanced Setup -> NAT -> Virtual Server in the left side menu to open the configuration page.
Click Add to create a new rule.

that demand many dynamic ports for session control such as Session Initiation Protocol(SIP), traditional NAT
cannot translate the address because lack of preset service ports. To enable such services while at the same
time do not sacrifice network security, DSL-N13 introduces Application Layer Gateway (ALG) to allow SIP
request going through fireware and NAT from WAN. To configure ALG:
1. Click Advanced Setup -> NAT -> ALG in the left side menu to open the configuration page.
2. Select SIP Enabled checkbox to allow SIP request, or uncheck to disable.
3. Press Save/Apply to save and activate the settings.
