                               87Appendix  GlossaryⅢ 3G 3G, the 3rd Generation, refers to the third digital communication technology. It can manage multi-media such as image, audio, and video streams etc. and provide different communication services such as web browse, telephone session, and electronic business etc. CDMA2000 CDMA2000, also called CDMA Multi-Carrier, is one of the current three 3G standards in the world which was put forward by an American company. The system derives from narrow frequency CDMAOne digital standard. You can upgrade the original CDMAOne structure to 3G with cheap construction cost.     WCDMA WCDMA (Wideband CDMA), also called CDMA Direct Spread, is the broadband CDMA technology which was put forward by Europe. It is the standard of 3G technology which was developed from GSM network. The standard has put forward the evolved strategy. The system can be established on the present GSM network. The system provider can change into this system easily and it would be accepted widely in Asia. Thus, W-CDMA has a born advantage in market and is one of the three 3G standards in
                               88the world. Channel     An instance of medium use for the purpose of passing protocol data units (PDUs) that may be used simultaneously, in the same volume of space, with other instances of medium use(on other channels) by other instances of the same physical layer (PHY),with an acceptably low frame error ratio(FER) due to mutual interference. SSID         Service Set Identifier .An SSID is the network name shared by all devices in a wireless network. Your network’s SSID should be unique to your network and identical for all devices within the network. It is case-sensitive and must not exceed 20 characters (use any of the characters on the keyboard).Make sure this setting is the same for all devices in your wireless network. WEP      Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the method for secure wireless data transmission.  WEP adds data encryption to every single packet transmitted in the wireless network.   The 40bit and 64bit encryption are the same because of out 64 bits, 40 bits are private.   Conversely, 104 and 128 bit are the same.   WEP uses a common KEY to encode the data.  Therefore, all devices on a wireless network must use the same key and same type of
                               89encryption.   There are 2 methods for entering the KEY; one is to enter a 16-bit HEX digit.   Using this method, users must enter a 10-digit number (for 64-bit) or 26-digit number (for 128-bit) in the KEY field.  Users must select the same key number for all devices.   The other method is to enter a text and let the computer generate the WEP key for you.   However, since each product use different method for key generation, it might not work for different products.   Therefore, it is NOT recommended using.  WPA/WPA2 A security protocol for wireless networks that builds on the basic foundations of WEP. It secures wireless data transmission by using a key similar to WEP, but the added strength of WPA is that the key changes dynamically. The changing key makes it much more difficult for a hacker to learn the key and gain access to the network.WPA2 is the second generation of WPA security and provides a stronger encryption mechanism through Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), which is a requirement for some government users.
                               90Appendix : TroubleshootingⅣ In this part some questions and problems shown during the Router’s usage and installation will be given suggesting answers. If your problems are not in the list, please log into our website www.tenda.cn or send an E-mail to support@tenda.cn, and we will reply you in the earliest time. 1. Enter the IP address but can not visit the WEB management interface. What can I do? Please make sure the cable is well connected and the corresponding indicator is light. Make sure the device is not in Wireless Router mode. In this mode, you can visit the WEB interface only by Wireless network. In the wireless access point (AP) mode, your computer must specify an IP (192.168.0.2 ~ 192.168.0.254) to access the device. Please click “Start" - " Run "to enter “ping 192.168.0.1”to diagnose whether the device is connected. If it can ping pass, then check whether your browser enable a proxy server. If enabled please disable it. If you can not ping pass, you can hold down the "RESET" button for 7 seconds to restore the factory settings, and “ping192.168.0.1” again. 2. Forget the login password and can not enter the setting page. What can I do? Press the “RESET” button for 7 seconds to restore the Router to
                               91default settings. 3. The computer connected with the Router shows IP address conflict. What can I do? Check if there are other DHCP servers in the LAN. If there have, disable them.   The default IP address of the Router is 192.168.0.1 and please maker sure the address is not occupied by other devices. If there are two computers with the same IP addresses, please modify one. 4. My computer can not log in equipment; can not access the internet, and a yellow triangle with exclamation point symbols shows, how to deal with? This problem is due to your network card is not assigned the IP address. If set your computer to automatically obtain IP, please ensure that the source of the router's DHCP is turned on. DHCP can automatically assign an IP address to your computer. If there is no DHCP, please set a static IP address and fill in gateways and DNS, otherwise you can not access Internet. 5. I can not use E-mail and access the Internet. What can I do? It happens in ADSL connection and Dynamic IP users. And you need modify the default MTU value (1492). Please in the “WAN Setting” modify the MTU value with the recommended value as 1450 or 1400. 6. How can I configure and access the Internet via Dynamic
                               92IP? In Setup Wizard of the Web utility interface, select “Dynamic IP” connection type and click “Save” to activate it. As some ISPs bind the user computer’s MAC address, you need to clone the Router’s WAN MAC address to the bind21ing PC’s MAC address. Select “MAC Address Clone” in “Advanced Setting” to input your computer’s MAC address and click “Apply” to activate it. 7. How to share my computer’s source with other users in Internet? If you want Internet users to access the internal server via the Router such as e-mail server, Web, FTP, you can configure the “Virtual Server” to come true. Step 1: create your internal server, make sure the LAN users can access these servers and know related service port. For example, Web server’s port is 80; FTP is 21; SMTP is 25 and POP3 is 110. Step 2: in the Router’s web click “Virtual Server” and select “Single Port Forwarding”. Step 3: input the external service port given by the Router, for example, 80. Step 4: input the internal Web service port, for example, 80. Step 5: Input the internal server’s IP address. If your Web server’s IP address is 192.168.0.10, please input it. Step 6: select the communication protocol used by your internal
                               93host: TCP, UDP, ICMP .   Step 7: click “Apply” to activate the settings. The following table has listed the well-known application and service port:   Server Protocol Service Port WEB Server  TCP  80 FTP Server  TCP  21 Telnet TCP 23 NetMeeting TCP  1503、1720 MSN Messenger  TCP/UDP File Send:6891-6900(TCP) Voice:1863、6901(TCP) Voice:1863、5190(UDP) PPTP VPN  TCP  1723 Iphone5.0 TCP 22555 SMTP TCP 25 POP3 TCP 110  8. Why can’t I use wireless WAN function to access the Internet? a. Please make sure that the wireless adapter can access the Internet when connected to the computer, wireless signals scanned by the adapter are strong enough, and quality of signals is good enough. If it can scan too many wireless signals, we recommend you to use 11b/g mode for reducing interference.
                               94b. Please make sure that the needed parameters such as SSID, MAC address etc. are correct. It is recommended to use Auto Scan to finish the settings in the setup process. c. Please make sure that IP address range obtained at WAN port are different as the one obtained at LAN port. If they are at the same range, you can modify the LAN IP address to solve the problem.      d. Please do not detach any antenna of the wireless   Router when you are using the Router. After trying all the above steps, if you still can’t access the Internet, you can contact us for support.
