AC750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router
TCP/IP Configuration
The default IP address of the router is 192.168.1.1 and the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.
These values can be changed as you desire. In this guide, we use all the default values for
description.
Connect the local PC to the LAN ports of the router and then you can configure the IP address for
your PC by the following method: Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address
automatically" mode on your PC. If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to
Appendix B: Configuring the PC. Then the built-in DHCP server will assign IP address for the PC.
Now, you can run the Ping command in the command prompt to verify the network connection
between your PC and the router. The following example is in Windows XP OS.
Open a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.1.1, and then press Enter.

If the result displayed is similar to the Figure 3-1, it means the connection between your PC
and the router has been established well.
Figure 3-1 Success result of Ping command

If the result displayed is similar to Figure 3-2, it means the connection between your PC and
the router failed.
Figure 3-2 Failure result of Ping command
Please check the connection following these steps:
1.
Is the connection between your PC and the router correct?
-9-
ARL02754U1
AC750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router
 Note:
The Ethernet LED on the router and LEDs on your PC's adapter should be lit.
2.
Is the TCP/IP configuration for your PC correct?
 Note:
If the router's IP address is 192.168.1.1, your PC's IP address must be within the range of
192.168.1.2 ~ 192.168.1.254.
3.
Is the default LAN IP of the router correct?
 Note:
If the LAN IP of the modem connected with your router is 192.168.1.x, the default LAN IP of the
router will automatically switch from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.0.1 to avoid IP conflict.

Fragmentation Threshold - This value is the maximum size determining whether packets
will be fragmented. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor network
performance because of excessive packets. 2346 is the default setting and is recommended.

DTIM Interval - This value determines the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message
(DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window for listening to
broadcast and multicast messages. When the router has buffered broadcast or multicast
messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. You can
specify the value between 1-15 Beacon Intervals. The default value is 1, which indicates the
DTIM Interval is the same as Beacon Interval.

Enable WMM - WMM function can guarantee the packets with high-priority messages being
transmitted preferentially. It is strongly recommended.

Enable Short GI - This function is recommended for it will increase the data capacity by
reducing the guard interval time.

Enabled AP Isolation - This function can isolate wireless stations on your network from each
other. Wireless devices will be able to communicate with the router but not with each other.
To use this function, check this box. AP Isolation is disabled by default.
 Note:
If you are not familiar with the setting items in this page, it's strongly recommended to keep the
provided default values; otherwise it may result in lower wireless network performance.

A local host makes an outgoing connection to an external host using a destination port number
defined in the Trigger Port field.
2.
The router records this connection, opens the incoming port or ports associated with this entry
in the Port Triggering table, and associates them with the local host.

for a special-purpose service such as Internet gaming or videoconferencing. The router forwards
packets of all services to the DMZ host. Any PC whose port is being forwarded must have its DHCP
client function disabled and should have a new static IP Address assigned to it because its IP
Address may be changed when using the DHCP function.


Web Management Port - Web browser access normally uses the standard HTTP service port
80. This router's default remote management web port number is 80. For greater security, you
can change the remote management web port to a custom port by entering that number in the
box provided. Choose a number between 1024 and 65535 but do not use the number of any
common service port.

Remote Management IP Address - This is the current address you will use when accessing
your router from the Internet. This function is disabled when the IP address is set to the default
value of 0.0.0.0. To enable this function change 0.0.0.0 to a valid IP address. If set to
255.255.255.255, then all the hosts can access the router from internet.
 Note:
1.
To access the router, you should type your router's WAN IP address into your browser's address
(in IE) or Location (in Navigator) box, followed by a colon and the custom port number. For
example, if your router's WAN address is 202.96.12.8, and the port number used is 8080,
please enter http://202.96.12.8:8080 in your browser. Later, you may be asked for the router's
password. After successfully entering the username and password, you will be able to access
the router's web-based utility.

Appendix D: Glossary

802.11ac - IEEE 802.11ac is a wireless computer networking standard of 802.11.This
specification will enable multi-station WLAN throughput of at least 1 gigabit per second .This is
accomplished by extending the air interface concepts embraced by 802.11n: wider RF
bandwidth, more MIMO spatial streams, multi-user MIMO, and high-density modulation (up to
256 QAM).

802.11n - 802.11n builds upon previous 802.11 standards by adding MIMO (multiple-input
multiple-output). MIMO uses multiple transmitter and receiver antennas to allow for increased
data throughput via spatial multiplexing and increased range by exploiting the spatial diversity,
perhaps through coding schemes like Alamouti coding. The Enhanced Wireless Consortium
(EWC) [3] was formed to help accelerate the IEEE 802.11n development process and promote
a technology specification for interoperability of next-generation wireless local area networking
(WLAN) products.

802.11b - The 802.11b standard specifies a wireless networking at 11 Mbps using directsequence spread-spectrum (DSSS) technology and operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum
at 2.4GHz, and WEP encryption for security. 802.11b networks are also referred to as Wi-Fi
networks.

802.11g - specification for wireless networking at 54 Mbps using direct-sequence spreadspectrum (DSSS) technology, using OFDM modulation and operating in the unlicensed radio
spectrum at 2.4GHz, and backward compatibility with IEEE 802.11b devices, and WEP
encryption for security.

DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) - The capability of assigning a fixed host and domain
name to a dynamic Internet IP Address.
- 137 -
ARL02754U1

AC750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - A protocol that automatically configure the
TCP/IP parameters for the all the PC(s) that are connected to a DHCP server.

DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) - A Demilitarized Zone allows one local host to be exposed to the
Internet for a special-purpose service such as Internet gaming or videoconferencing.

DNS (Domain Name System) - An Internet Service that translates the names of websites into
IP addresses.

Domain Name - A descriptive name for an address or group of addresses on the Internet.

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) - A technology that allows data to be sent or received over
existing traditional phone lines.

ISP (Internet Service Provider) - A company that provides access to the Internet.

MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) - The size in bytes of the largest packet that can be
