The SSID is case-sensitive. 802.11 Mode: Enable Auto Channel Scan: Wireless Channel: Transmission Rate: Channel Width: Visibility Status: Here the user can manually select the preferred frequency band to use for this wireless network. The auto channel selection setting can be selected to allow this device to choose the channel with the least amount of interference. By default the channel is set to 1. The Channel can be changed to fit the channel setting for an existing wireless network or to customize the wireless network. If you enable Auto Channel Selection, this option will be greyed out. Select the transmit rate. It is strongly suggested to select Best (Automatic) for best performance. When using the 802.11n frequency band, the user have an option to choose between a 20MHz or 20/40MHz bandwidth. The Invisible option allows you to hide your wireless network. When this option is set to Visible, your wireless network name is broadcasted to anyone within the range of your signal. If you are not using encryption then they could connect to your network. When Invisible mode is enabled, you must enter the Wireless Network Name (SSID) on the client manually to connect to the network. Section 3 - Software Configuration By default the wireless security of this router will be disabled. In this next option the user can enabled or disable wireless security for the frequency band 2.4GHz. There are two types of encryption that can be used- WEP or WPA/WPA2. Wireless Security Mode: WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the most basic form of encryption that can be used for wireless networks. Even though it is known as a âweakâ security method, it is better than no security at all. Older wireless adapter sometimes only supports WEP encryption and thus we still find this encryption method used today. WEP Key Length: Here the user can specify to either use a 64Bit or a 128Bit encrypted key. Authentication: Authentication is a process by which the router verifies the identity of a network device that is attempting to join the wireless network. There are two types authentication for this device when using WEP. Open System allows all wireless devices to communicate with the router before they are required to provide the encryption key needed to gain access to the network. Shared Key requires any wireless device attempting to communicate with the router to provide the encryption key needed to access the network before they are allowed to communicate with the router. WEP Key 1: Enter the WEP key used here. For 64-bit keys you must enter 10 hex digits into each key box. For 128-bit keys you must enter 26 hex digits into each key box. A hex digit is either a number from 0 to 9 or a letter from A to F. You may also enter any text string into a WEP key box, in which case it will be converted into a hexadecimal key using the ASCII values of the characters. A maximum of 5 text characters can be entered for 64-bit keys, and a maximum of 13 characters for 128-bit keys. Section 3 - Software Configuration Wireless Security Mode: WPA-Personal Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is the most advanced and up to date wireless encryption method used today. This is the recommended wireless security option. WPA supports two authentication frameworks. Personal (PSK) and Enterprise (EAP). Personal requires only the use of a pass-phrase (Shared Secret) for security. The following parameters will be available for configuration: WPA Mode: WPA is the older standard; select this option if the clients that will be used with the router only support the older standard. WPA2 is the newer implementation of the stronger IEEE 802.11i security standard. With the âWPA2â option, the router tries WPA2 first, but falls back to WPA if the client only supports WPA. With the âWPA2 Onlyâ option, the router associates only with clients that also support WPA2 security. Cipher Type: Select the appropriate cipher type to use here. Options to choose from are Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), and Both (TKIP and AES). Group Key Enter the amount of time before the group key Update Interval: used for broadcast and multicast data is changed. Pre-Shared Key: Enter the shared secret used here. This secret phrase needs to be the same on all of the wireless clients for them to be able to connect to the wireless network successfully. Section 3 - Software Configuration Wireless Security Mode: WPA-Enterprise Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is the most advanced and up to date wireless encryption method used today. This is the recommended wireless security option. WPA supports two authentication frameworks. Personal (PSK) and Enterprise (EAP).

Group Key Enter the amount of time before the group key Update Interval: used for broadcast and multicast data is changed. RADIUS Server IP When the user chooses to use the EAP Address: authentication framework, the RADIUS serverâs IP address can be entered here. RADIUS Server When the user chooses to use the EAP Port: authentication framework, the RADIUS serverâs port number can be entered here. RADIUS Server Enter the shared secret used here. This secret Shared Secret: phrase needs to be the same on all of the wireless clients for them to be able to connect to the wireless network successfully. Section 3 - Software Configuration Network Settings On this page the user can configure the internal network settings of the router and also able to configure the built-in DHCP server to assign IP addresses to computers on the network. The IP address that is configured here is the IP address that is used to access the Web-based management interface. If you change the IP address in this section, you may need to adjust your PCâs network settings to access the network again. Router IP Enter the IP address of the router. The default IP Address: address is 192.168.0.1. If you change the IP address, once you click Apply, you will need to enter the new IP address in your browser to get back into the configuration utility. Default Subnet Enter the Subnet Mask. The default subnet mask is Mask: 255.255.255.0. Host Name: Enter a Host Name to identify this device. Local Domain Enter the local domain name used here. (Optional). Name: Enable DNS Uncheck the box to transfer the DNS server Relay: information from your ISP to your computers. If checked, your computers will use the router for a DNS server. DHCP Server Settings DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. This device has a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP Server will automatically assign an IP address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting their TCP/IP settings to âObtain an IP Address Automatically.â When you turn your computers on, they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the router. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address of the IP address pool. Section 3 - Software Configuration The following parameters will be available for configuration: Enable DHCP Check this box to enable the DHCP server on your Server: router. Uncheck to disable this function. DHCP IP Address Enter the starting and ending IP addresses for the Range: DHCP serverâs IP assignment. DHCP Lease The length of time for the IP address lease. Enter Time: the Lease time in minutes. Always If all the computers on the LAN successfully obtain Broadcast: their IP addresses from the routerâs DHCP server as expected, this option can remain disabled. However, if one of the computers on the LAN fails to obtain an IP address from the routerâs DHCP server, it may have an old DHCP client that incorrectly turns off the broadcast flag of DHCP packets. Enabling this option will cause the router to always broadcast its responses to all clients, thereby working around the problem, at the cost of increased broadcast traffic on the LAN. NetBIOS Check this box to allow the DHCP Server to offer announcement: NetBIOS configuration settings to the LAN hosts. NetBIOS allow LAN hosts to discover all other computers within the network, e.g. within Network Neighborhood. Learn NetBIOS If NetBIOS announcement is switched on, it will cause WINS information to be learned from the WAN side, if available. Turn from WAN: this setting off to configure manually. NetBIOS Scope: This is an advanced setting and is normally left blank. This allows the configuration of a NetBIOS âdomainâ name under which network hosts operate. This setting has no effect if the âLearn NetBIOS information from WANâ is activated. Section 3 - Software Configuration NetBIOS node This field indicates how network hosts are to perform NetBIOS name registration and discovery. H-Node, this indicates a Hybridtype: State of operation. First WINS servers are tried, if any, followed by local network broadcast. This is generally the preferred mode if you have configured WINS servers. M-Node (default), this indicates a Mixed-Mode of operation. First Broadcast operation is performed to register hosts and discover other hosts, if broadcast operation fails, WINS servers are tried, if any. This mode favours broadcast operation which may be preferred if WINS servers are reachable by a slow network link and the majority of network services such as servers and printers are local to the LAN. P-Node, this indicates to use WINS servers ONLY. This setting is useful to force all NetBIOS operation to the configured WINS servers. You must have configured at least the primary WINS server IP to point to a working WINS server. B-Node, this indicates to use local network broadcast ONLY. This setting is useful where there are no WINS servers available, however, it is preferred you try M-Node operation first. This setting has no effect if the âLearn NetBIOS information from WANâ is activated. Primary WINS Server IP address: Secondary WINS Server IP address: Configure the IP address of the preferred WINS server. WINS Servers store information regarding network hosts, allowing hosts to âregisterâ themselves as well as discover other available hosts, e.g. for use in Network Neighborhood. This setting has no effect if the âLearn NetBIOS information from WANâ is activated. Configure the IP address of the backup WINS server, if any. This setting has no effect if the âLearn NetBIOS information from WANâ is activated. Section 3 - Software Configuration Add/Edit DHCP Reservation This option lets you reserve IP addresses, and assign the same IP address to the network device with the specified MAC address any time it requests an IP address. This is almost the same as when a device has a static IP address except that the device must still request an IP address from the D-Link router. The D-Link router will provide the device the same IP address every time. DHCP Reservations are helpful for server computers on the local network that are hosting applications such as Web and FTP. Servers on your network should either use a static IP address or use this option. The following parameters will be available for configuration: Enable: Check this box to enable the reservation. Computer Name: Enter the computer name. Alternatively, select a computer that currently has a DHCP lease from the drop down menu and click << to automatically populate the Computer Name, IP Address, and MAC Address fields. IP Address: Enter the IP address you want to assign to the computer or device. This IP Address must be within the DHCP IP Address Range. MAC Address: Enter the MAC address of the computer or device. DHCP Reservations List This shows clients that you have specified to have reserved DHCP addresses. An entry can be changed by clicking the Edit icon, or deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the Edit icon, the item is highlighted, and the âEdit DHCP Reservationâ section is activated for editing. Number of Dynamic DHCP Clients In this section you can see what LAN devices are currently leasing IP addresses.
