SMCWEB-N2 Wireless N Universal Repeater User Manual - 19 - 1 Safety Precautions Before operating SMCWEB-N2, read the following precaution information carefully:  Leave proper space for heat dissipation to avoid damage caused by device overheating. Heat dissipation holes enable the device to work normally. Do not cover heat dissipation holes.  Keep the device away from heat outlets or high temperature places. Prevent the device from direct sunlight.  Keep the device in dry places. Do not spill any liquid on this device.  Do not connect the device to any PC or electronic product unless our customer engineer or your broadband provider instructs you to do this, because any wrong connection may cause power or fire risks.  Do not place this device on an unstable surface. 2 Overview 2.1 Product Introduction Thank you for choosing the SMCWEB-N2 Wireless N Universal Repeater. SMCWEB-N2, a pocket router, is case-shaped, easy to carry, and easy to install. Its wireless transmission rate is up to 300 Mbps. It is a high-performance and IEEE802.11b/g/n-compatible network access device that can provide reliable and convenient network access service for individual users and SOHO (Small Office, Home Office). It features Web-based GUI, allowing users to easily modify settings to connect the device to ISP (Internet Service Provider) and conveniently perform upgrade using the WEB page. In addition, SMCWEB-N2 has a three-way switch on the side panel that enables users to change the device’s working mode among AP, Repeater, and Client. In the AP mode, the device functions as a wireless router to achieve wireless connection for the wired LAN. In the Repeater mode, the device provides the URM (Universal Repeater Mode) function for users to expand wireless coverage of the existing AP in a quick and easy way. In the Client mode, the device functions as a wireless network adapter but it can provide a better transmission and connection performance.

After finishing settings, click Apply to add a port triggering rule. 8.6.3 UPnP By using the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) protocol, a host in the LAN can ask the router to perform specific port conversion, to enable an external host to access resources on the internal host when necessary. For example, if MSN Messenger is installed on Windows ME and Windows XP operating systems, UPnP can be used for audio and video conversations. In this way, functions restricted by NAT can work properly. Choose Network Application > UPnP and the UPnP page is displayed.  Turn UPnP On: If selected, UPnP is enabled.  Advertisement Period (in minutes): Set the broadcast interval. It indicates the interval for the router broadcasting its UPnP information. The value should be in the range of 1 to 1440 minutes and the default is 30 minutes.  Advertisement Time To Live (in hops): The time for the broadcast to live. It is the number of hops after each UPnP packet is sent. The number of hops is the times that each packet can be broadcast before it vanishes. The value is in the range of 1 to 255 hops and the default is 4 hops.

SMCWEB-N2 Wireless N Universal Repeater User Manual - 90 -  UPnP Portable Table: This table shows the IP addresses of UPnP devices that are connected to the router and open (internal and external) ports on the devices. It also lists the types and status of the open ports. Note: Only applications that support UPnP can use the UPnP function.

Servers that are allowed to access the external network, such as Web and e-mail, connect to the DMZ. The internal network is protected behind the Trust Zone interface, and is not allowed any user to access. Therefore, the internal and external networks are separated, which can meet user’s secrecy demand. Usually, there are some public servers in DMZ, such as Web, Mail, and FTP. Users from the external network can access services in DMZ, but they cannot obtain the company’s secret information or personal information that is

SMCWEB-N2 Wireless N Universal Repeater User Manual - 91 - stored on the internal network. Even though servers in the DMZ are damaged, it does not cause secret information loss on the internal network. Choose Network Application > DMZ Server and the DMZ Server page is displayed.  Default DMZ Server: Enter the IP address of a PC that serves as the DMZ server. Note: When PC on the internal network is set to be the DMZ host, all interfaces of the PC will be exposed to the Internet and the PC will risk great security. Unless necessary, please do not set the DMZ casually. After the DMZ host is set, mappings of all the interfaces will point to the DMZ host and the port mappings that point to other hosts will be invalid. 8.6.6 Dynamic DNS Dynamic domain name resolution (DDNS) is mainly used to achieve resolution between fixed domain names and dynamic IP addresses. For a user that uses a dynamic IP address, after the user obtains a new IP address in the Internet access, the dynamic domain name software installed in the host sends the IP address to the DDNS server provided by the DDNS service provider and updates the domain name resolution database. When another user on the Internet tries accessing the domain name, the dynamic domain name resolution server returns the correct IP address. Choose Network Application > Dynamic DNS and the Dynamic DNS page is displayed.

When SMCWEB-N2 that is in the Client mode or in the Reaper mode but disconnected to the uplink AP does not support wireless client access and can be connected to through an Ethernet cable only. If the problem persists, causes may be that SMCWEB-N2 is far distant from the terminal device or obstacles placed between them block wireless signals. You can position SMCWEB-N2 in a closer distance from the terminal device, reduce obstacles between them, or add a wireless repeater. In addition, place microwave ovens, Bluetooth devices, and wireless phones that interrupt WLAN signals far away from WLAN devices. 2 The wireless network adapter fails to connect to SMCWEB-N2. Some early-version wireless network adapters may not support WPA2 authentication.
