for access by the remote parties.
Port Trigger dynamically opens up the “Open Ports” in the firewall when an application on the
LAN initiates a TCP/UDP connection to a remote party using the “Triggering Ports”. The
Freeway DSL allows the remote party from the WAN side to establish new connections back
to the application on the LAN side using the ”Open Ports”. A maximum 32 entries can be
configured.

7.2 Security
This page allows you to configure security features of the wireless LAN interface. You can set
up configuration manually or through Wi-Fi protected Setup (WPS). WPS (WSC*) uses a
push-button or a PIN to simplify the secure network setup. With WPS, Freeway DSL can
automatically set the SSID or network name as part of the setup process and provide strong
encryption keys to client devices. You do not need to configure SSID, wireless security setting,
etc., in the client software. In order to use WPS (WSC), the wireless client software must also
support WPS.
*WSC (Wi-Fi Simple Configuration) is a former name of WPS.
Field Description
Enable WSC (WSC) Select to enable or disable WPS (WSC).
Setup AP by Push-
Button / PIN Select to set up the AP by push-button or PIN (Personal

Push-Button Select it to start WSC by simply pushing a button, either an actual
button or a software one, on both WPS (WSC) AP and clients to
connect. The push-button of WSC is labeled as WPS on the upper
case of Freeway DSL.
PIN Select it to start WPS (WSC) by using a same 8-digit PIN (Device
PIN) in both AP and WPS (WSC) clients to make the connection.

Keys to manually set the network encryption keys. Up to 4
different keys can be set and you can come back to select which
one to use at anytime.
y 802.1: Requires mutual authentication between a client station
and the router by including a RADIUS-based authentication
server. Information about the RADIUS server such as its IP
address, port and key must be entered. WEP encryption is also
enabled and the encryption strength must also be selected.
y WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access): Usually used for the larger
enterprise environment, WPA uses a RADIUS server and TKIP
(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) encryption (instead of WEP
encryption, which is disabled). TKIP uses 128-bit dynamic
session keys (per user, per session, and per packet keys).
y WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access – Pre-Shared Key): WPA
for home and SOHO environments, also using the same strong
TKIP encryption, perpacket key construction, and key
management that WPA provides in the enterprise environment.
The main difference is that the password is entered manually.
y WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2): Second generation of WPA,
ADSL2/2+ 11N WiFi Router User’s Manual
44
which uses AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) instead of
TKIP as its encryption method. Network re-auth interval is the
time in which another key needs to be dynamically issued.
y WPA2-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 – Pre-Shared Key):
Suitable for home and SOHO environments, it also uses AES
encryption and requires you to enter a password and a re-key
interval time.
y Mixed WPA2 / WPA: During transitional times for upgrades in
the enterprise environment, this mixed authentication method
allows upgraded users and users not yet upgraded to access the
network via the router.
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) server
information must be entered for WPA and a as well as a group
re-key interval time. Both TKIP and AES are used.

Appendix A. Troubleshooting
Below is a list of commonly asked questions. Before calling technical support, please look
through these issues to see if they help solve your problem.
The Freeway DSL is not functional.
1. Check to see that the POWER LED is lit and than the network cables are installed
correctly. Refer to the Quick Start Guide for more details.
2. Check to see that the LAN, DSL and Internet LEDs are lit.
3. Check the settings on your PC and Freeway DSL. Again, refer to the Quick Start Guide
for more details.
4. From your PC, can you PING the Freeway DSL? Assuming that the Freeway DSL has
DHCP enabled and your PC is on the same subnet as the Freeway DSL, you should be
able to PING the Freeway DSL.
5. Can you PING the Internet? Your ISP should have provided the IP address of their
server. If you can ping the Freeway DSL and your protocols are configured correctly,
you should be able to ping the ISPs network. If you cannot PING the ISP’s network,
make sure your using the correct protocols with the correct VPI/VCI values.
I can’t connect to the Freeway DSL.
1. Check to see that the POWER LED is lit and that the network cables are installed
correctly.
2. Make sure that the PC and Freeway DSL is on the same network segment. The
Freeway DSL’s default IP address is 192.168.1.1. If you are running a Windows based
PC, you can open a DOS window and type IPCONFIG; make sure that the network
adapter that is connected to the Freeway DSL is within the same subnet.
3. Also, your PC’s Subnet Mask should match the Freeway DSL’s subnet mask. The
Freeway DSL has a default subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
4. If this still does not work, press the Reset button. This will place the Freeway DSL into
its factory default state. Go through the above procedures again.
The DSL LED continues to blink but does not go solid.
1. Make sure you have DSL service. You should get some kind of information from your
ISP which states that DSL service is installed. You can usually tell if the service is
installed by listening to the ADSL phone line; you will hear some high-pitched noise. If
you do not hear high-pitched noise, contact your ISP.
2. This means that the DSL line is trying to train but for some reason it cannot establish a
valid connection. The main cause of this is that you are too far away from the central
office. Contact your DSL service provider for further assistance.
3. Verify that the DSL line is connected directly to the wall and to the line input on the
Freeway DSL.
The Internet LED is always off.
1. Make sure you have DSL service. You should get some kind of information from your
ISP which states that DSL service is installed. You can usually tell if the service is

2. Verify that the phone line is connected directly to the wall and to the line input on the
Freeway DSL. If the Freeway DSL is connected to the wall line outlet via a splitter, make
sure you connect the Freeway DSL to the port labeled MODEM.
The Internet LED is always red.
Make sure your account for the DSL service is correct. Re-type your username and password
for the Internet account. The username and password are usually case sensitive. Make sure
your Caps Lock key is not locked when entering the account.

I cannot ping the Freeway DSL from the attached LAN.
1. Verify that the IP addresses are properly configured. In most cases, you enable the
Freeway DSL’s DHCP function to dynamically assign IP addresses to hosts on the
attached LAN. However, if you manually configure IP addresses on the LAN, verify that
the same network address (network component of the IP address) and subnet mask are
used for both the Freeway DSL and any attached LAN devices.
2. Make sure the device you want to ping (or from which you are pinging) has been
configured for TCP/IP correctly.
I cannot connect using the web browser.
1. Make sure you have configured the Freeway DSL with a valid IP address, subnet mask
and default gateway.
2. Make sure you have a valid network connection to the Freeway DSL and the port you
are using has not been disabled.
3. Make sure the cable between the attached PC and the Freeway DSL is firmly installed.
I forgot or lost the password.
Press the Reset button on the rear panel (holding it down for at least 8 seconds) to restore
the factory default settings.
