The SSID can be easily changed to establish a new wireless network.( Note: SSID names may contain up to 32 ASCII characters). 4.  SSID Broadcast: The router will broadcast beacons that have some information, including ssid so that wireless clients can know how many AP devices by scanning function in the network. Therefore, this function is disabled; the wireless clients can not find the device from beacons. 5.  Channel: Auto is the default. Devices on the network must share the same channel. (Note: Wireless adapters automatically scan and match the wireless settings. You may also select the channel you wish to use). 6.  Wireless Mode: Choose B/G Mixed, B only, G only, N only, G/N Mixed or B/G/N mixed. The factory default setting is B/G/N mixed. 7.  Authentication mode: You may select from nine kinds of authentication to secure your wireless network: Open, Shared, Auto, WPA-PSK, WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2, WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK, WPA/WPA2.    Open Open system authentication simply consists of two communications. The first is an authentication request by the client that contains the station ID (typically the MAC address). This is followed by an authentication response from the AP/router containing a
success or failure message. An example of when a failure may occur is if the client's MAC address is explicitly excluded in the AP/router configuration. Shared Shared key authentication relies on the fact that both stations taking part in the authentication process have the same "shared" key or passphrase. The shared key is manually set on both the client station and the AP/router. Three types of shared key authentication are available today for home or small office WLAN environments. Auto  The AP will Select the Open or Shared by the client’s request automatically.

3.2.2 Forwarding Rules
3.2.2.1 Virtual Server   This product’s NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping. A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer specified by the Server IP. Virtual Server can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule.  For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.123.1, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.123.2, and a VPN server at 192.168.123.6, then you need to specify the following virtual server mapping table:
Service Port  Server IP  Enable 21 192.168.123.1 V 80 192.168.123.2 V 1723 192.168.123.6 V  Click on “Save” to store what you just select or “Undo” to give up
3.2.2.2  Special AP    Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony, etc. Because of the firewall function, these applications cannot work with a pure NAT router. The Special Applications feature allows some of these applications to work with this product. If the mechanism of Special Applications fails to make an application work, try setting your computer as the DMZ host instead. 1. Trigger: the outbound port number issued by the application. 2. Incoming Ports: when the trigger packet is detected, the inbound packets sent to the specified port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall.       This product provides some predefined settings. 1.  Select your application and   2. Click “Copy to” to add the predefined setting to your list. Note! At any given time, only one PC can use each Special Application tunnel.  Click on “Save” to store what you just select or” Undo” to give up
3.2.2.3  Miscellaneous    1.  IP Address of DMZ Host DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of firewall.

3.2.3.1 Packet Filters   Packet Filter includes both outbound filter and inbound filter. And they have same way to setting.   Packet Filter enables you to control what packets are allowed to pass the router. Outbound filter applies on all outbound packets. However, inbound filter applies on packets that destined to Virtual Servers or DMZ host only. You can select one of the two filtering policies: 1.  Allow all to pass except those match the specified rules   2.  Deny all to pass except those match the specified rules You can specify 8 rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can define the following:  • Source IP address  •  Source port   •  Destination IP address   • Destination port •  Protocol: TCP or UDP or both. • Use Rule# For source or destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1) or a range of IP addresses (4.3.2.1-4.3.2.254). An empty implies all IP addresses.   For source or destination port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of ports (1000-1999). Add prefix "T" or "U" to specify TCP or UDP protocol. For example, T80, U53, U2000-2999, No prefix indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. An empty implies all port addresses. Packet Filter can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule.
