The gateway can be configured to disconnect if there is no activity for a specific period of time by selecting the Dial on demand check box and entering the Inactivity timeout. The entered value must be between 1 minute and 4320 minutes. The PPP IP Extension is a special feature deployed by some service providers. Unless your service provider specifically requires this setup, do not select it. If you need to select it, the PPP IP Extension supports the following conditions:  It allows only one computer on the LAN.  The public IP address assigned by the remote using the PPP/IPCP protocol is actually not used on the WAN PPP interface. Instead, it is forwarded to the computer's LAN interface through DHCP. Only one system on the LAN can be connected to the remote, since the DHCP server within the ADSL gateway has only a single IP address to assign to a LAN device.  NAPT and firewall are disabled when this option is selected.  The gateway becomes the default gateway and DNS server to the computer through DHCP using the LAN interface IP address.  The gateway extends the IP subnet at the remote service provider to the LAN computer. That is, the PC becomes a host belonging to the same IP subnet.  The ADSL gateway bridges the IP packets between WAN and LAN ports, unless the packet is addressed to the gateway's LAN IP address. Use static IPv4 IP address, If the ISP gave you a static IP address, select this option and enter it in the IP address field. Bridge PPPoE Frames Between WAN and Local Ports is available when you do not use PPP IP extension. If you enable this function, LAN hosts can use PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the ISP. Each host can have a separate account and a public WAN IP address. 7.

Country Drop-down menu that allows selection of specific channel. 5.3.2 Advanced Settings This page is where user specifies a number of advanced settings for wireless communications.
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL 24 Note: After making any changes, click Apply to save. Warning: The settings shown above are default settings. Changes made to these items can cause wireless communication problems. Field Description Band This is the range of frequencies the gateway will use to communicate with user’s wireless devices. Channel Drop-down menu that allows selection of specific channel. 54gTM Rate This drop-down list lets user specify the wireless communication rate, which can be Auto (uses the highest rate when possible, or else a lower rate) or a fixed rate between 1 and 54 Mbps. Multicast rate This drop-down list lets user specify the wireless communication rate for multicast packets, which are sent to more than one destination at a time. The value can be Auto (uses the highest rate when possible, or else a lower rate) or a fixed rate between 1 and 54 Mbps. Basic rate User has the option of supporting all rates listed in Rate above or using the 1-, 2-Mbps rates, which support only older 802.11b implementations. Fragmentation threshold A threshold, specified in bytes, that determines whether packets will be fragmented and at what size. On an 802.11 connection, packets that are larger the fragmentation threshold are split into smaller units suitable for the circuit size. Packets smaller than the specified fragmentation threshold value are not fragmented. Enter a value between 256 and 2346. If user experience a high packet error rate, try to increase this value slightly. Setting the fragmentation threshold too low may result in poor performance. RTS threshold This is number of bytes in the packet size beyond which the gateway invokes its RTS/CTS (request to send, clear to send) mechanism. Packets larger than this threshold trigger the RTS/CTS mechanism, while the gateway transmits smaller packets without using RTS/CTS. The default setting of 2347, which is the maximum, disables the RTS threshold mechanism.
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL 25 DTIM interval A delivery traffic indication message (DTIM), also known as a beacon, is a countdown informing wireless clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the gateway has broadcast or multicast messages for its clients, it sends its next DTIM message with this DTIM interval value. The clients hear the beacons and awaken as needed to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. Beacon interval The amount of time (in milliseconds) between beacon transmissions, each of which identifies the presence of an access point. By default, wireless clients passively scan all radio channels, listening for beacons coming from access points. Before a client enters power-save mode, it needs the beacon interval to determine when to wake up for the next beacon (and learn whether the access point has any messages for it). User can enter any value between 1 and 65535, but the recommended range is 1 - 1000. XPress™ Technology XPress™ Technology is a feature in which two of our devices can communicate with each other at twice the normal rate. 54g+ is a technology that achieves higher throughput with frame-bursting. With 54g+ enabled, aggregate throughput (the sum of the individual throughput of each network client) improves by up to 25% in 802.11g-only networks, and up to 75% in mixed networks containing both 802.11g and 802.11b equipment.

Set WPS AP mode as configured and click Save/Apply. 6.Now you can use a wireless adaptor with WPS function and the WPS button to connect to access the Internet. 7. To configure security features for the Wireless interface, please open Security item from Wireless menu. This web page offers nine authentication protocols for user to secure user’s data while connecting to networks. There are four selections including Open, Shared, 802.1X,WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2, WPA2-PSK, Mixed WPA-WPA2, Mixed WPA-WPA2-PSK. Different item leads different web page settings. Please read the
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL 28 following information carefully. The wireless security page allows user to configure the security features of user’s wireless network. There are several security methods to choose from, depending on user’s needs and the capabilities of user’s wireless machines.  WEP open and WEP shared —WEP is an encryption scheme that is used to protect user’s wireless data communications. WEP uses a combination of 64-bit keys or 128-bit keys to provide access control to user’s network and encryption security for every data transmission. To decode a data transmission, each wireless client on the network must use an identical 64-bit or 128-bit key. WEP is an older wireless encryption method that is not as hard to break as the more-recent WPA.  802.1x — In 802.1x (also known as RADIUS), a separate machine called an authentication server receives a user ID and password. It grants or denies access based on whether the ID and password match any entries in its account list. User can optionally enable WEP encryption with this option. Because it requires a separate machine acting as the authentication server, 802.1x is most often used in business environments.  WPA — WPA is a more recent encryption method that addresses many of the
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL 29 weaknesses in WEP. Any client capable of WPA encryption should use it instead of WEP.  WPA (PSK) — This is WPA encryption combined with a pre-shared key (PSK), which is a text string known only to the gateway and authorized wireless clients. The gateway rejects the login if the client's PSK does not match.  WPA2 — WPA2 is a more advanced encryption method than WPA. Because it is a more recent standard, some of user’s wireless devices might not be able to use it.  WPA2 (PSK) — This option uses WPA2 with a pre-shared key.  WPA2 and WPA — This option supports WPA2/WPA encryption for devices capable of one or the other standard. The gateway automatically detects whether a particular device can use WPA2 or WPA.  WPA2 AND WPA (PSK) — This has WPA2 or WPA encryption based on client abilities, as well as a pre-shared key.

Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL 32 GetRPCMethods: Used by a CPE or ACS to discover the set of methods supported by the ACS or CPE it is in communicate with. 5.4.3 SNMP Agent SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) has been widely applied in the computer networks currently, which is used for ensuring the transmission of the management information between any two nodes. In this way, network administrators can easily search and modify the information on any node on the network. Meanwhile, they can locate faults promptly and implement the fault diagnosis, capacity planning and report generating. An SNMP Agent is an application running on the Router that performs the operational role of receiving and processing SNMP messages, sending responses to the SNMP manager, and sending traps when an event occurs. So a Router contains SNMP "agent" software can be monitored and/or controlled by SNMP Manager using SNMP messages. SNMP Agent: You can select the checkbox to disable or enable the function. Note: SNMP Community string provides a simple method of authentication between the Router (SNMP Agent) and a remote network manager (SNMP Manager). You can specify the community string as the password to authenticate the management station to the Router.
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL 33 Read Community: This field allows you to specify the SNMP Community string which provides read-only access to the Router that the community is only permitted to read the device configuration. The default value is “public”. Set Community: This field allows you to specify the SNMP Community string which provides read and write access to the Router that the community has the authority to read and change the device configuration. The default value is “public”. System Name: Enter alphanumeric string to specify an SNMP community string name. Your Router (SNMP agents) will expose management data on the managed systems as this "system name". System Location: The person to notify when problems occur. System contact: The location of the person that is identified as the system contact. Trap Manager IP: Enter the IP address of the SNMP Manager，where the SNMP Agent forwards trap notifications. Select the desired values and click Save/Apply to configure the SNMP options. Appendix: Frequent Asked Questions Q: None of the LEDs are on when user power on the ADSL router? A: Please make sure what user use is the power adaptor attached with the ADSL router package，and check the connection between the AC power and ADSL router.
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL 34 Q: DSL LED does not turn on after connect telephone line? A: Please make sure what user use is the standard telephone line (as attached with the package), make sure the line is connected correctly and check whether there is poor contact at each interface. Wait for 30 seconds to allow the ADSL router establishes connection with user ADSL operator. Q: DSL LED is in the circulation of slow-flashing and fast-flashing after connect telephone line? A: This situation means the ADSL router is in the status of failing to establish connection with Central Office. Please check carefully and confirm whether the ADSL router has been installed correctly. Q: LAN LED does not turn on after connect Ethernet cable? A: Please make sure Ethernet cable is connected hub/PC and ADSL router correctly. Then please make sure the PC/hub have been power on. Please make sure that user use parallel network cable to connect UpLink port of hub, or use parallel network cable to connect PC. If connect normal port of hub (not UpLink port), user must use cross-cable. Please make sure that user’s network cables meet the networking requirements above. Q: PC cannot access the Router? A: Please make sure that all devices communicating with the device must use the same channel (and use the same SSID). Otherwise user’s PC will not find the wireless Router. Q: PC cannot access the Internet? A: First check whether PC can ping the interface Ethernet IP address of this product successfully (default value is 192.168.1.1) by using ping application. If ping application fails, please check the connection of Ethernet cable and check whether the states of LEDs are in gear. If the PC uses private IP address that is set manually (non-registered legal IP address), please check: 1. Whether IP address of the PC gateway is legal IP address. Otherwise please use the right gateway, or set the PC to Obtain an IP address automatically. 2. Please confirm the validity of DNS server appointed to the PC with ADSL operator. Otherwise please use the right DNS, or set the PC to Obtain an IP address automatically. 3. Please make sure user have set the NAT rules and convert private IP address to legal IP address. IP address range of the PC that user specify should meet the setting range in NAT rules. 4. Central Office equipment may have problem. 5. The country or the wireless network type user selected is wrong. Q: PC cannot browse Internet web page? A: Please make sure DNS server appointed to the PC is correct. User can use ping application program to test whether the PC can connect to the DNS server of the ADSL operator.
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL 35 Q: Initialization of the PVC connection failed? A: Be sure that cable is connected properly from the DSL port to the wall jack. The DSL LED on the front panel of the ADSL router should be on. Check that user’s VPI, VCI, type of encapsulation and type of multiplexing setting are the same as what user collected from user’s service provider, Re-configure ADSL router and reboot it. If user still can not work it out, user may need to verify these variables with the service provider. If the cause is not above given，，，，please contact user’s local service provider!
