- Advanced
This tab allows you to set the advanced wireless options. The options included
are Authentication Type, Fragment Threshold, RTS Threshold, Beacon Interval,
and Preamble Type. You should not change these parameters unless you know
what effect the changes will have on the router.
38
Fragment Threshold: This specifies the maximum size of a packet during the
fragmentation of data to be transmitted. If you set this value too low, it will
result in bad performance.
RTS Threshold: When the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the
wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet.
Beacon Interval: is the interval of time that this wireless router broadcasts a
beacon. A Beacon is used to synchronize the wireless network.
DTIM Period: Enter a value between 1 and 255 for the Delivery Traffic Indication
Message (DTIM). A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next
window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages
Data Rate: The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit
data packets. The access point will use the highest possible selected
transmission rate to transmit the data packets.
39
N Data Rate: The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit
data packets for N compliant wireless nodes. Highest to lowest data rate
can be fixed.
Channel Bandwidth: This is the range of frequencies that will be used.
Preamble Type: The “Long Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN
compatibility while the “Short Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN
performance.
CTS Protection: It is recommended to enable the protection mechanism. This
mechanism can decrease the rate of data collision between 802.11b and
802.11g wireless stations. When the protection mode is enabled, the
throughput of the AP will be a little lower due to a lot of frame-network that
is transmitted.
TX Power: This can be set to a bare minimum or maximum power.
- Security
This Access Point provides complete wireless LAN security functions,
included are WEP, IEEE 802.1x, IEEE 802.1x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared
key and WPA with RADIUS. With these security functions, you can prevent your
wireless LAN from illegal access. Please make sure your wireless stations use
the same security function, and are setup with the same security key.
40
41
ESSID Selection: This broadband router support multiple ESSID, you could
select and set up the wanted ESSID.
Broadcast ESSID: If you enabled “Broadcast ESSID”, every wireless station
located within the coverage of this access point can discover this
access point easily. If you are building a public wireless network,
enabling this feature is recommended. Disabling “Broadcast ESSID”
can provide better security.
WMM: Wi-Fi MultiMedia if enabled supports QoS for experiencing better
audio, video and voice in applications.
Encryption: When you choose to disable encryption, it is very insecure to
operate ESR-9752.
Enable 802.1x Authentication
IEEE 802.1x is an authentication protocol. Every user must use a valid account
to login to this Access Point before accessing the wireless LAN. The
authentication is processed by a RADIUS server. This mode only authenticates
users by IEEE 802.1x, but it does not encrypt the data during communication.
42
WEP Encryption
When you select 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key, you have to enter WEP keys to
encrypt data. You can generate the key by yourself and enter it. You can enter
four WEP keys and select one of them as a default key. Then the router can
receive any packets encrypted by one of the four keys.
Authentication Type: There are two authentication types: "Open System" and
"Shared Key". When you select "Open System", wireless stations can
associate with this wireless router without WEP encryption. When you
select "Shared Key", you should also setup a WEP key in the
"Encryption" page. After this has been done, make sure the wireless
clients that you want to connect to the device are also setup with the same
encryption key.
Key Length: You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit.
The larger the key will be the higher level of security is used, but the
throughput will be lower.
Key Type: You may select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or
Hexadecimal Digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key.
43
Key1 - Key4: The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the wireless
network. Use the following rules to setup a WEP key on the device. 64-bit
WEP: input 10-digits Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 5digit ASCII character as the encryption keys.
128-bit WEP: input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range)
or 13-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys.
Click  at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations.
You can now configure other sections by choosing Continue, or choose Apply to
apply the settings and reboot the device.
WPA Pre-Shared Key Encryption
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use
a pre-shared key to authenticate wireless stations and encrypt data during
communication. It uses TKIP or CCMP (AES) to change the encryption key
frequently. So the encryption key is not easy to be cracked by hackers. This is
the best security available.
WPA-Radius Encryption
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use
an external RADIUS server to authenticate wireless stations and provide the
session key to encrypt data during communication.
44
It uses TKIP or CCMP (AES) to change the encryption key frequently. Press
 button when you are done.
- MAC Address Filtering
This wireless router supports MAC Address Control, which prevents
unauthorized clients from accessing your wireless network.
Enable wireless access control: Enable the wireless access control function

the list, just click the  button. Click  will clear your
current selections.
Click  at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations.
- Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
WPS is the simplest way to establish a connection between the wireless clients
and the wireless router. You don’t have to select the encryption mode and fill in a
long encryption passphrase every time when you try to setup a wireless
connection. You only need to press a button on both wireless client and wireless
router, and the WPS will do the rest for you.
The wireless router supports two types of WPS: WPS via Push Button and
WPS via PIN code. If you want to use the Push Button, you have to push a
specific button on the wireless client or in the utility of the wireless client to start
the WPS mode, and switch the wireless router to WPS mode. You can simply
push the WPS button of the wireless router, or click the ‘Start to Process’ button
in the web configuration interface. If you want to use the PIN code, you have to
know the PIN code of the wireless client and switch it to WPS mode, then fill-in
the PIN code of the wireless client through the web configuration interface of the
wireless router.
46
WPS: Check the box to enable WPS function and uncheck it to disable the WPS
function.
WPS Current Status: If the wireless security (encryption) function of this
wireless router is properly set, you’ll see a ‘Configured’ message here.
Otherwise, you’ll see ‘UnConfigured’.
Self Pin Code: This is the WPS PIN code of the wireless router. You may need
this information when connecting to other WPS-enabled wireless devices.
SSID: This is the network broadcast name (SSID) of the router.
Authentication Mode: It shows the active authentication mode for the wireless
connection.
Passphrase Key: It shows the passphrase key that is randomly generated by
the wireless router during the WPS process. You may need this information
when using a device which doesn’t support WPS.
47
Interface: If device is set to repeater mode, you can choose “Client” interface to
connect with other AP by using WPS, otherwise you may choose “AP”
interface to do WPS with other clients.
WPS via Push Button: Press the button to start the WPS process. The router
will wait for the WPS request from the wireless devices within 2 minutes.
WPS via PIN: You can fill-in the PIN code of the wireless device and press the
button to start the WPS process. The router will wait for the WPS request
from the wireless device within 2 minutes.

15 Firewall Settings
The Broadband router provides extensive firewall protection by restricting
connection parameters, thus limiting the risk of hacker attacks, and defending
against a wide array of common Internet attacks. However, for applications that
require unrestricted access to the Internet, you can configure a specific client/server
as a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).
Note: To enable the Firewall settings select Enable and click Apply
- Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)
If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application (e.g. Games)
properly from behind the NAT firewall, then you can open up the firewall
restrictions to unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining a DMZ Host. The
DMZ function allows you to re-direct all packets going to your WAN port IP
address to a particular IP address in your LAN. The difference between the
virtual server and the DMZ function is that the virtual server re-directs a particular
service/Internet application (e.g. FTP, websites) to a particular LAN client/server,
whereas DMZ re-directs all packets (regardless of services) going to your WAN
IP address to a particular LAN client/server.
49

- Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS can let you classify Internet application traffic by source/destination IP
address and port number. You can assign priority for each type of application
and reserve bandwidth for it. The packets of applications with higher priority will
always go first. Lower priority applications will get bandwidth after higher priority
applications get enough bandwidth. This can let you have a better experience in
using critical real time services like Internet phone, video conference …etc. All
the applications not specified by you are classified as rule “Others”. The rule with
a smaller priority number has a higher priority; the rule with a larger priority
number has a lower priority. You can adjust the priority of the rules by moving
them up or down.
