Hardware connections
ADSL connection
Use the ADSL splitter supplied in the package to split ADSL signal and telephone
service. First connect the splitter to the wall telephone outlet either by just plugging your
splitter onto the outlet or by inserting the line connector into the outlet. Then connect
your ASUS WL-600g to the ADSL or mode port of the splitter with the telephone cable
supplied in the package. Use another telephone cable to connect your telephone to the
phone port of the ADSL splitter.
The format of the connector on the supplied splitter (line or plug) may differ
by region.
Wireless connection
To access Internet via wireless connection, you need to install an IEEE802.11b/g
wireless adapter on your computer, such as ASUS WL-167g, WL-100gE, WL-100gD,
WL-169gE, and WL-106gM.
Ethernet connection
Use Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable to build up your wired LAN connections. The
ASUS WL-600g Wireless ADSL2/ 2+ Home Gateway is a Fast Ethernet device that
provides 100Mbps network connection. To ensure the connection quality, use CAT5
Ethernet cable to connect your network devices, such as desktop computers and
network printers.
Splitter *: The name or the location of the ports on the supplied splitter may
vary by region.

Before you start
Before you start, you need to:
• make sure the cable connections are correct and WL-600g is powered ON;
• acquire an active Internet service, such as an ADSL account.
:HUHFRPPHQGXVLQJZLUHGFRQQHFWLRQIRULQLWLDOFRQÀJXUDWLRQZKLFKPD\
help avoid possible setup problems due to wireless uncertainty. Use a CAT5
cable to connect an Ethernet-enabled computer to a LAN port of WL-600g.
Preparing your WAN
Depending on your ISP's requirements, you may need to acquire some of the
information listed below to set up Internet connection on WL-600g.
• Vitual Path Identifier (VPI)
• Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI)
• Host name
• Domain name
• ISP login user name and password
• ISP Domain Name System (DNS) server address
• Static IP address (For static IP users)
Preparing your LAN
To use the WL-600g Wireless ADSL2/2+ Home Gateway on your network, you need to install
a network interface card (NIC) or an IEEE802.11b/g wireless network card to your computer.

Setting up wireless security
To protect your wireless network, you need to setup a security mechanism at both
WL-600g and the wireless clients.
Network authentication
Network authentication uses certain types of mechanism to identify authenticated
wireless clients. WL-600g 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.
WL-600g All-in-1 Wireless ADSL2/2+ Home Gateway User Manual
23
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. WL-600g 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.

Wireless bridge
You can connect WL-600g to other wireless bridges so as to expand your wireless LAN.
This function is also referred to as Wireless Distribution System (WDS).
To set up WDS, the wireless routers must meet the following requirements:
1. Using the same encryption.
2. Working on the same channel.
3. The IP addresses of all wireless bridges are within the same subnet.
4. WDS enabled.
5. For bridging wireless routers, the MAC Addresses of the uplink wireless router must
be saved to the Remote Bridge List. For uplink wireless router, MAC addresses of
all bridging router must be saved.
Example: WL-600g (wireless bridge with Internet access), WL-500gP (wireless bridge),
and WL-500gD (wireless bridge). Refer to the illustration on the next page.
