The DHCP server will always assign the same IP address to the same device. This feature is often used for shared devices such as network printers or servers. 802.1d Spanning Type (STP): A network protocol that ensures a loop-free topology for networks that have Ethernet bridges. The STP prevents bridge loops and allows a network design to include redundant links to provide automatic backup paths if active links fails. Clone MAC Address: The High Power Router can use a MAC address that you define as its own. This is often used when an Internet Provider only authorizes one MAC address to access the Internet. Cloning the MAC address will make it so that the cloned MAC address is the only MAC address seen by the Internet Provider.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 36 Network Settings: Internet Network (WAN) The Smart Setup Wizard will assist you in setting up your Internet connection. However, in the case that you wish to adjust settings manually, the options on this page provides you with the tools to do this easily. Select your Internet Connection type from the drop down menu: Manual IP (Static): For Internet connections where the Internet provider does not provide you with an IP address automatically. If you know the IP address and DNS settings that your Internet provider uses, select this option. Automatic/Dynamic (DHCP): This is the configuration type most often used by Internet providers. Automatic configurations are used by both DSL and Cable as well as other providers. Under the Automatic Configuration method, the Internet provider will assign your router an Internet IP address automatically.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 37 If for some reason you do not get an IP address and you know that your Internet provider uses DHCP, try resetting your modem. Remove the power adapter from the modem as well as the backup battery (if available). Wait about 30 seconds and then power the modem back on. You can run through the Smart Setup Wizard again to see if that fixes your Internet connection issues. PPPoE connections normally requires login information. If you do not know the settings for your PPPoE connection, please contact your Internet provider. PPTP and L2TP connections requires login information as well as IP address settings. If you do not know the settings for your PPTP / L2TP connection, please contact your Internet provider.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 38 Network Settings: Advanced Settings These settings apply to the Local Network and your Internet Connection Network. If you are not familiar with these settings, please refer to a network administrator to avoid putting your network at risk. Enable uPnP: Universal Plug and Play is a network feature that allows uPnP enabled devices to “just work” with each other when connected to the same network. UPnP can work across different network media, such as an Ethernet connection or wireless connection. With UPnP enabled, network devices may change security settings within the High Power Router’s firewall to allow access over the Internet. By default, UPnP is disabled to avoid exposing your network to security issues. Enable IGMP Proxy: Internet Group Management Protocol is a communication protocol used by hosts and routers on the network to establish multicast group memberships. IGMP Proxy is typically used to implement multicast routing and commonly used when advanced protocols such as PIM is not suitable. Enable Ping Access on WAN: Allows users to ping the WAN interface IP address from the internet.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 39 Enable Web Server Access on WAN (Remote Management): Allows access to the Web Menu over the Internet Enable IPsec pass through on VPN connection: Allows the IP security protocol suite to pass through on a VPN connection.

R20000G USER’S GUIDE 42 Smart Features: User Access (MAC Address Filtering) User Access allows you to deny access or allow access to specific users connecting to the network. Each networking device has a unique address called a MAC address (a 12 digit hex number). By inputting the MAC address into the field, you can define whether that device is allowed into your network or not allowed. A MAC Address may sometimes be referred to as a Physical Address. Most networking devices have their MAC Address located on a label on the actual device. For Windows computers with internal networking adapters, the MAC Address can be found by viewing the Network Connection Details of the network adapter. The MAC Address will be listed as the Physical Address. Be sure to enter the MAC Address without any symbols. For example, a MAC Address of 78-DD-78-AA-78-BB would be entered as 78DD78AA78BB.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 43 Smart Features: User Access (IP Address Filtering) User Access (IP Filtering) is similar to User Access (MAC filtering) except that the High Power Router uses the local IP address to filter the specific data from the specified network protocol. For example, if you chose to block TCP data packets from a specific computer, you would need to figure out what that device's IP address is and select TCP from the Protocol drop down menu. If you are not sure which Protocol to filter, select "Both" as your Protocol selection.

R20000G USER’S GUIDE 49 FIREWALL SETTINGS The High Power Router’s Firewall is designed to prevent unauthorized users from accessing your network. This section will go over the different features of the Firewall and how to configure them.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 50 Firewall Settings: Port Filtering Port Filtering is a security measure that prevents users from using specific ports for reasons other than what those ports were originally intended for. For example, TCP port 21 is traditionally used for FTP. However, there is nothing stopping a user from using port 21 for purposes other than FTP access. By enabling Port Filtering on TCP port 21, only FTP communications would be allowed. No other types of communication would be allowed on this port. Hackers may sometimes scan for all open ports on your network as a method of hacking into your network. Port Filtering and other firewall features help to prevent this from happening. To set up Port Filtering, select a range of ports you wish to filter. If you are trying to filter a single port, enter the port number twice. (For example, Port 21: 21 – 21) Select the Protocol of the port you are filtering. If you do not know what protocol you wish to filter, select “Both.”
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 51 Firewall Settings: Port Forwarding Port Forwarding is a rule that tells the High Power Router that if a specific type of request comes in on a specific port, then that request should be forwarded to a specific device on the private network. Port Forwarding is often used for setting up servers, cameras and other devices that require remote access. Enable Port Forwarding: Enables designated ports to begin forwarding. IP Address: The IP address of the device behind the Firewall that is being designated for Port Forwarding. Protocol: Select UDP, TCP or Both for the protocols to be forwarded. Port Range: Select a range of ports for the designated IP address that you wish to be forwarded. Comment: Create a name that you can use to easily identify this Port Forwarding entry.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 52 Firewall Settings: DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) A DMZ is a network location or IP Address that is not protected by the firewall. When enabling DMZ, it is important to note that the device on the IP Address designated as part of the DMZ does not have any protection from the High Power Router’s firewall. The device’s only security would be those built into the operating system. As a general safety rule, devices placed on the DMZ should not have any other network connections to any other devices. Enable DMZ: Enables the Demilitarized Zone. DMZ Host IP Address: The designated IP Address of the network device to have unrestricted access through the High Power Router’s Firewall.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 53 Firewall Settings: Virtual LAN A VLAN has the same attributes as a physical local area network (LAN) but it allows for devices to be grouped together even if they are not located on the same physical network switch. The benefit of a VLAN is that it allows network traffic to flow more efficiently for computers or network devices that are within sections of mutual interest. In addition, changes to the VLAN can be made virtually via a user interface rather than manually changing cables and network switches. VLAN are often used to segment network devices based on their department, user types or common applications. Bandwidth can then be more easily managed by adjusting the bandwidth to specific VLANs based on their priorities.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 54 Firewall Settings: Denial of Service A Denial of Service attack is an attempt by a user (or users) to make a server’s or network’s services unavailable. The user sends a server multiple requests with false return addresses. The server will attempt to respond by sending a request back to the user; however, since the address is false, the server will wait for a response before closing the connection. When multiple requests like this occur, servers may often get overloaded with too many requests and stop functioning altogether. This is a typical DoS attack, although DoS attacks may not be limited to this type of attack. The High Power Router can assist in preventing these types of attacks by scanning the network for patterns of activity that represent DoS attacks. If a pattern comes in frequently, the High Power Router can attempt to block messages containing that pattern and thus protect the server from becoming overloaded and unresponsive.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 55 QUALITY OF SERVICE QoS prioritizes and guarantees network performance for a specific IP Address range or MAC Address. QoS is often used for applications that require steady bandwidth. Common applications include VoIP phones, video streaming applications (i.e. DVRs, network cameras, video on demand), online gaming and servers. It is important to note that while QoS helps to prioritize and guarantee bandwidth for a specific device, it does not provide you with more bandwidth than you currently have. For example, if your Internet Provider rates your internet connection speed at 5Mbps, QoS will not improve that connection. QoS helps you better manage the 5Mbps that you have so that the bandwidth is prioritized for devices on your network that may need the provided 5Mbps more than other devices. However, if you have an application that requires more than 5Mbps of steady bandwidth, the application will continue to experience “lag” with or without QoS since your available bandwidth is less than the required bandwidth of your application.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 56 ROUTING SETUP Dynamic Routing allows the High Power router to automtically learn network destinations for devices/networks that are directly connected to the router. RIP and RIP2 are routing protocols that may be used for the router to learn routes from other routers running those same protocols. This allows the High Power Router to adapt to changes and failures within the network topology and find the best route. Static Routing allows the administrator to manually enter into the High Power Router’s routing table. These routes do not change and must be manually reconfigured if the route fails.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 57 MANAGEMENT FEATURES The Management Features on the High Power Router allows you to view the status of the system, your Internet connection, wireless network and local area network. The Network Statistics page provides detailed traffic data for each connection type.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 58 Management: System Status The System Status provides you with a snapshot of your High Power Router’s current connections and settings. The System Information section provides you with the router’s firmware version and build. This is used to help our support department determine what firmware version your device is running. The Current Date / Time is the setting for the system clock. If this time is off, go to the System Clock section and configure your system time. The Internet Connection Status displays the information from your Internet Provider. If for some reason your Internet connection stops working, you may try running through the Smart Setup Wizard again or contact our support department at 888-573-8820. The Wireless Settings shows the details of the 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz wireless networks. The Local Area Network settings displays the current configurations for local network IP address and DHCP server settings.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 59 Management: Network Statistics Network statistics shows the data activity for each connection type on the High Power Router (Internet, Wireless and Wired). The Wireless Connection statistics shows all data activity for both the 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz wireless networks separately. The Wired Connection statistics shows all data activity for all users physically connected to the wired ports on the High Power Router. The Internet Connection statistics shows the data activity for all upload and download data over your Internet connection.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 60 Management: Dynamic DNS Settings The Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) is a method to keep a web domain name, or web address, linked to a changing IP address as most Internet Providers do not provide static IP addresses. To use DDNS, you must first set up an account with a DDNS provider. The High Power Router supports two of these providers (TZO and DynDNS). Once the DDNS service has been set up and configured correctly on the High Power Router, the DDNS service will constantly track the IP address of your Internet connection. Each time your Internet Provider changes your IP address, the High Power Router will inform the DDNS service and the DDNS service will update your new IP address. The DDNS web domain that you have chosen to use will then be updated to redirect to your new Internet IP address. The DDNS service makes it so you never have to check or remember your Internet IP address. This feature is typically used for users running servers, network cameras and other devices that require remote access.
R20000G USER’S GUIDE 61 Management: System Clock Maintain the internal clock for the High Power Router by syncing with your computer’s time. Your system clock settings need to be accurate in order for logs and wireless access schedules to work correctly.
