NAT SETTINGS
Network Address Translation (NAT) is a standard method of mapping
multiple “internal” IP addresses to one “external” IP address on devices at
the edge of a network. For the RG300, the internal (local) IP addresses are
the IP addresses assigned to local PCs by the DHCP server, and the
external IP address is the IP address assigned to the WiMAX interface.
Figure 32: NAT Settings
The following item is displayed on this page:
◆Enable – Enables NAT on the device.
PORT MAPPING
Using the NAT Port Mapping feature, remote users can access different
servers on your local network using your single public IP address.
Remote users accessing services such as web or FTP at your local site
thorugh your public IP address, are redirected (mapped) to other local
server IP addresses and TCP/UDP port numbers. For example, if you set
Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the Private IP/Port to
192.168.7.9/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users forwarded to
192.168.7.9 on port 80. Therefore, by just using your external IP address
provided by your ISP, Internet users can access the services they need at
the local addresses to which you redirect them.
The more common TCP service port numbers include: HTTP: 80, FTP: 21,
Telnet: 23, and SSH: 22.

ALG
The RG300 supports the passthrough of three of the most commonly used
VPN protocols; PPTP, L2TP, and IPsec, as well as VoIP SIP traffic. The VPN
protocols allow remote users to establish a secure connection to their
corporate network. If your service provider supports VPNs, then these
protocols can be used to create an authenticated and encrypted tunnel for
passing secure data over the Internet (that is, a traditionally shared data
network).

gateway. PPTP includes provisions for call origination and flow control
required by ISPs.
◆L2TP IPsec Passthrough — L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol)
merges the best features of PPTP and the Layer 2 Forwarding (L2F)
protocol. Like PPTP, L2TP requires that the ISP’s routers support the
protocol. IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) encrypts and authenticates
entire IP packets and encapsulates them into new IP packets for secure
communications between networks.

11 VOIP SETTINGS
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology is a way of using the
Internet to make phone calls. Phone calls can be tranmitted over the
Internet by encoding a voice call into data packets at one end and then
decoding it back into voice calls at the other end. This encoding and
decoding is from a analog signal (your voice) into a digital signal (data
packets) and then back into an analog signal.
The RG300 uses Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) as the control
mechanism that sets up, initiates, and terminates calls between a caller
and a called party. The SIP messaging makes use of “Proxy,” “Redirect,”
and “Registration” servers to process call requests and find the location of
called parties across the Internet. When SIP has set up a call between two
parties, the actual voice communication is a direct peer-to-peer connection
using the standard Real-Time Protocol (RTP), which streams the encoded
voice data across the network.
You can make VoIP calls by connecting a regular phone to the RG300’s
RJ-11 Phone port.
The VoIP configuration pages include the following options:
◆“Connection Type” on page 63

DIAL PLAN
Dial-plan strings specify key sequences used for specific calling features
(Transfer, New Call, 3-way conference), as well as defining call restriction
filters.
A dial plan can filter the number and pattern of digits that a user dials to
reach a particular telephone number. Access codes, area codes, specialized
codes, and combinations of the number of digits dialed can all be part of a
dial plan. This enables a user to predefine dialling sequences that are
permitted.
The dial-plan string consists of a single digit rule. A typical example of a
dial-plan string is: [0123]xxxxxx.t
Five standard dial plans are defined; Call Transfer Key, New Call Key, Set
Speed Dial Key, Speed Dial Key, and 3-way Conference. Up to 10 other dial
plans can be defined by the user.

The function of elements allowed in a dial plan are described in the table
below:
When a user dials a series of digits, the dial-plan rule is tested for a
possible match. If a match is made, the dialed sequence is transmitted. If
no match is made, the dialed number is blocked and the user will hear an
error tone.
A dial-plan string cannot include spaces between elements. Dialed
sequences that are longer than specified in a dial-plan rule are truncated
after the number of specified digits. For example, if the dial-plan rule is
“011x” and “0115678” is dialed, only the digit sequence “0115” is
transmitted.

x xxxx Represents a digit of any value ( 0 to 9) that can be dialed on a
phone. This example has a rule with four digits of any number.
. xx. Indicates zero or more occurrences of the previous symbol. The
example acts like a wildcard, meaning any dialed phone number
of two or more digits is allowed.
0-9 01xx Indicates dialed digits that must be matched. This example only
allows four-digit numbers starting “01.”
[ ] [125-8] Limits a dialed digit to specified values or a range of values. The

Codecs
– 71 –
CODECS
A codec (coder/decoder) is the way a voice analog signal is converted into
a digital bitstream to send over the network, and how it is converted back
into an analog signal at the receiving end. Codecs differ in the type of data
compression that is used to save network bandwidth and in the time delay
caused in the signal. This results in different voice quality experienced by
the user.
The voice codecs in common use today have been standardized by the
International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization
Sector (ITU-T) and are identified by a standard number, such as G.711.
The same codec must be supported at each end of a VoIP call to be able to
encode and decode the signal. Since devices in other networks may want
to use different codecs, the RG300 supports several common standards.
Figure 52: VoIP Codecs
The following items are displayed on this page:
◆Codecs — Lists the codecs supported by the Gateway. You can enable
specific codecs to use, or enable all. Alternatively, you may want to
disable certain codecs, such as high-bandwidth codecs, to preserve
network bandwidth.
■PCMA (G.711 ALaw) — The ITU-T G.711 with A-law standard
codec that uses Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) to produce a 64 Kbps
high-quality voice data stream. This standard is used in Europe and
most other countries around the world.
■PCMU (G.711 ULaw) — The ITU-T G.711 with mu-law standard
codec that uses Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) to produce a 64 Kbps
high-quality voice data stream. This standard is used in North
America and Japan.
■G.729a — The ITU-T G.729ab standard codec that uses Conjugate
Structure Algebraic-Code Excited Linear Prediction (CS-ACELP) with
silence suppression to produce a low-bandwidth data stream of 8
Kbps. Note that DTMF and fax tones do not transport reliably with
this codec, it is better to use G.711 for these signals.

as the SSID. (Range: 1-32 characters)
◆Hidden — By default, the Wi-Fi radio always broadcasts the SSID in its
beacon signal. Disabling the SSID broadcast increases security of the
network because wireless clients need to already know the SSID before
attempting to connect.
◆Country Code — The country code restricts operation of the Wi-Fi
radio to the channels and transmit power levels permitted for Wi-Fi
networks in the specified region. You must set the correct Country Code
to be sure the radio conforms to local regulations. (Options: United
States, Japan, France, Taiwan, Ireland)

◆Channel — The radio channel that the Wi-Fi radio uses to communicate
with wireless clients. When multiple access points are deployed in the
same area, set the channel on neighboring access points at least five
channels apart to avoid interference with each other. For example, you
can deploy up to three access points in the same area using channels 1,

ADVANCED WIRELESS SETTINGS
The Advanced Settings page includes additional parameters concerning the
wireless network and Wi-Fi Multimedia settings.
Figure 54: Advanced Wireless Settings
The following items are displayed on this page:
◆Beacon Period — The rate at which beacon signals are transmitted
from the access point. The beacon signals allow wireless clients to
maintain contact with the access point. They may also carry power-
management information. (Range: 20-999 TUs)
◆DTIM Period — The rate at which stations in sleep mode must wake
up to receive broadcast/multicast transmissions.
Known also as the Delivery Traffic Indication Map (DTIM) interval, it
indicates how often the MAC layer forwards broadcast/multicast traffic,
which is necessary to wake up stations that are using Power Save
mode. The value of one beacon indicates that the access point will save
all broadcast/multicast frames for the Basic Service Set (BSS) and
forward them after every beacon. Using smaller DTIM intervals delivers
broadcast/multicast frames in a more timely manner, causing stations
in Power Save mode to wake up more often and drain power faster.
Using higher DTIM values reduces the power used by stations in Power
Save mode, but delays the transmission of broadcast/multicast frames.
(Range: 1-255 beacons)
◆Frag Threshold – Configures the minimum packet size that can be
fragmented when passing through the access point. Fragmentation of
the PDUs (Package Data Unit) can increase the reliability of
transmissions because it increases the probability of a successful
transmission due to smaller frame size. If there is significant
interference present, or collisions due to high network utilization, try
setting the fragment size to send smaller fragments. This will speed up
the retransmission of smaller frames. However, it is more efficient to
set the fragment size larger if very little or no interference is present
because it requires overhead to send multiple frames. (Range: 256-
2346 bytes)
◆RTS Threshold — Sets the packet size threshold at which a Request to
Send (RTS) signal must be sent to a receiving station prior to the
sending station starting communications. The access point sends RTS
C
HAPTER
12
| Wi-Fi Settings
Wireless Security
– 77 –
frames to a receiving station to negotiate the sending of a data frame.
After receiving an RTS frame, the station sends a CTS (clear to send)
frame to notify the sending station that it can start sending data.
If the RTS threshold is set to 0, the access point always sends RTS
signals. If set to 2347, the access point never sends RTS signals. If set
to any other value, and the packet size equals or exceeds the RTS
threshold, the RTS/CTS (Request to Send / Clear to Send) mechanism
will be enabled.
The access points contending for the medium may not be aware of each
other. The RTS/CTS mechanism can solve this “Hidden Node Problem.”
(Range: 1-2347 bytes)
◆TX Power – Adjusts the power of the radio signals transmitted from
the unit. The higher the transmission power, the farther the
transmission range. Power selection is not just a trade off between
coverage area and maximum supported clients. You also have to
ensure that high-power signals do not interfere with the operation of
other radio devices in the service area. (Range: 1 - 100)
◆Short Slot — Sets the basic unit of time the access point uses for
calculating waiting times before data is transmitted. A short slot time
(9 microseconds) can increase data throughput on the access point, but
requires that all clients can support a short slot time (that is, 802.11g-
compliant clients must support a short slot time). A long slot time
(20 microseconds) is required if the access point has to support
802.11b clients.
WIRELESS SECURITY
The RG300’s Wi-Fi interface is configured by default as an “open system,”
which broadcasts a beacon signal including the configured SSID. Wireless
clients with a configured SSID of “ANY” can read the SSID from the
beacon, and automatically set their SSID to allow immediate connection to
the wireless network.
To implement wireless network security, you have to employ two main
functions:
◆Authentication – It must be verified that clients attempting to connect
to the network are authorized users.
◆Traffic Encryption – Data passing between the unit and clients must be
protected from interception and evesdropping.
The RG300’s Wi-Fi interface supports supports five different security
mechanisms that provide various levels of authentication and encryption
depending on the requirements of the network.

WIRED EQUIVALENT
PRIVACY (WEP)
WEP provides a basic level of security, preventing unauthorized access to
the network, and encrypting data transmitted between wireless clients and
an access point. WEP uses static shared keys (fixed-length hexadecimal or
alphanumeric strings) that are manually distributed to all clients that want
to use the network.
When you select to use WEP, be sure to define at least one static WEP key
for user authentication or data encryption. Also, be sure that the WEP
shared keys are the same for each client in the wireless network.
Figure 56: Security Mode - WEP
The following items are displayed in this section on this page:
◆Auth Mode — Configures the WEP security mode used by clients.
When using WEP, be sure to define at least one static WEP key for the
RG300 and all its clients.
■OPEN — Open-system authentication accepts any client attempting
to connect the RG300 without verifying its identity. In this mode the
default data encryption type is “WEP.”
■SHARED — The shared-key security uses a WEP key to
authenticate clients connecting to the network and for data
encryption.

◆Encrypt Type — Selects WEP for data encryption (OPEN mode only).
◆Default ID — Selects the WEP key number to use for authentication or
data encryption. If wireless clients have all four WEP keys configured to
the same values, you can change the encryption key to any of the
settings without having to update the client keys. (Range: 1~4)
◆Key 1~4 Type — Sets WEP key type as ASCII or hexadecimal.
◆Key 1~4 String — Sets WEP key values. The user must first select
ASCII or hexadecimal keys. Each WEP key has an index number. Enter
key values that match the key type and length settings. Enter 5
alphanumeric characters or 10 hexadecimal digits for 64-bit keys, or
enter 13 alphanumeric characters or 26 hexadecimal digits for 128-bit
keys.
WPA PRE-SHARED
KEY
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) was introduced as an interim solution for the
vulnerability of WEP pending the adoption of a more robust wireless
security standard. WPA2 includes the complete wireless security standard,
but also offers backward compatibility with WPA. Both WPA and WPA2
provide an “enterprise” and “personal” mode of operation.
For small home or office networks, WPA and WPA2 provide a simple
“personal” operating mode that uses just a pre-shared key for network
access. The WPA Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK) mode uses a common
password phrase for user authentication that is manually entered on the
access point and all wireless clients. Data encryption keys are
automatically generated by the access point and distributed to all clients
connected to the network.
Figure 57: Security Mode - WPA-PSK
The following items are displayed in this section on this page:
◆Auth Mode — Configures the WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK security modes
used by clients. When using WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK, be sure to define
the shared key for the RG300 and all its clients.
■WPAPSK — Clients using WPA with a Pre-shared Key are accepted
for authentication. The default data encryption type for WPA is TKIP.
■WPA2PSK — Clients using WPA2 with a Pre-shared Key are
accepted for authentication. The default data encryption type for
WPA is AES.

■WPAPSK/WPA2PSK mixed mode — Clients using WPA or WPA2
with a Pre-shared Key are accepted for authentication. The default
data encryption type is TKIP/AES.
◆EncryptType — Selects the data encryption type to use. (Default is
determined by the Security Mode selected.)
■TKIP — Uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) keys for
encryption. WPA specifies TKIP as the data encryption method to
replace WEP. TKIP avoids the problems of WEP static keys by
dynamically changing data encryption keys.
■AES — Uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) keys for
encryption. WPA2 uses AES Counter-Mode encryption with Cipher
Block Chaining Message Authentication Code (CBC-MAC) for
message integrity. The AES Counter-Mode/CBCMAC Protocol (AES-
CCMP) provides extremely robust data confidentiality using a 128-
bit key. Use of AES-CCMP encryption is specified as a standard
requirement for WPA2. Before implementing WPA2 in the network,
be sure client devices are upgraded to WPA2-compliant hardware.
■TKIPAES — Uses either TKIP or AES keys for encryption. WPA and
WPA2 mixed modes allow both WPA and WPA2 clients to associate
to a common SSID. In mixed mode, the unicast encryption type
(TKIP or AES) is negotiated for each client.
◆Pass Phrase — The WPA Preshared Key can be input as an ASCII
string (an easy-to-remember form of letters and numbers that can

CANNOT ACCESS WEB MANAGEMENT
If the management interface cannot be accessed using a web browser:
◆Be sure the management station is correctly configured for TCP/IP. The
IP settings should be set to “obtain an IP address automatically.”
◆Try a Ping command from the management station to the unit’s IP
address to verify that the entire network path between the two devices
is functioning correctly.
◆Check that the management station has a valid network connection and
that the Ethernet port that you are using has not been disabled.
◆Check the network cabling between the management station and the
unit. If the problem is not resolved, try using a different port or a
different cable.

CCABLES AND PINOUTS
TWISTED-PAIR CABLE ASSIGNMENTS
For 10/100BASE-TX connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs
of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example,
one wire might be green and the other, green with white stripes. Also, an
RJ-45 connector must be attached to both ends of the cable.
C
AUTION
:
Each wire pair must be attached to the RJ-45 connectors in a
specific orientation. (See “Straight-Through Wiring” on page 96 and
“Crossover Wiring” on page 97 for an explanation.)
C
AUTION
:
DO NOT plug a phone jack connector into the RJ-45 port. Use
only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC
standards.
The following figure illustrates how the pins on the RJ-45 connector are
numbered. Be sure to hold the connectors in the same orientation when
attaching the wires to the pins.
Figure 62: RJ-45 Connector
10/100BASE-TX PIN
ASSIGNMENTS
Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for
RJ-45 connections: 100-ohm Category 3 or better cable for 10 Mbps
connections, or 100-ohm Category 5 or better cable for 100 Mbps
connections. Also be sure
that the length of any twisted-pair connection
does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
The RJ-45 ports on the unit supports automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so
you can use straight-through or crossover cables for all network
connections to PCs, switches, or hubs. In straight-through cable, pins 1, 2,
3, and 6, at one end of the cable, are connected straight through to pins 1,
2, 3, and 6 at the other end of the cable.

RJ-11 PORT
Standard telephone RJ-11 connectors and cabling can be found in several
common wiring patterns. These six-pin connectors can accommodate up to
three wire pairs (three telephone lines), but usually only one or two pairs
of conductor pins and wires are implemented.
