Knowledge Center MTU: The MTU (maximum transmission unit) is the largest data packet a network device transmits. The normal MTU value for most Ethernet networks is 1500 bytes, or 1492 bytes for PPPoE connections. For some ISPs, you might need to change the MTU. This is rarely required, and should not be done unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection. For more information, see WAN MTU Setup. Static IP Static IP is a connection mode that allows you to specify the Static IP information provided by your ISP or that corresponds with your existing networking equipment.

The normal MTU value for most Ethernet networks is 1500 bytes, or 1492 bytes for PPPoE connections. For some ISPs, you might need to change the MTU. This is rarely required, and should not be done unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection. When one network device communicates across the Internet with another, the data packets travel through many devices along the way. If a device in the data path has a smaller MTU value than the other devices, the data packets have to be "fragmented" to accommodate the device with the smallest MTU value. The best MTU value is often just the factory default value. In some situations, changing the MTU value fixes one problem but causes another. Leave the MTU unchanged unless one of these situations occurs: A. You have problems connecting to your ISP or other Internet service, and either your ISP or our technical support suggests changing the MTU value. Below Web-based applications might require an MTU change:  A secure Website that does not open, or displays only part of a Web
32 III Features & Configurations | Tenda page  Yahoo email  MSN portal B. You use VPN and encounter serious performance problems. C. You used a program to optimize MTU for performance reasons, and now you have connectivity or performance problems. If you suspect an MTU problem, try changing the MTU to 1400. If this does not help, gradually reduce the MTU from the maximum value of 1500 until the problem disappears. The common MTU sizes and applications are listed in the table below. MTU Application 1500 Typical for connections that do not use PPPoE or VPN. 1492 Used in PPPoE environments. 1472 Maximum size to use for pinging. (Larger packets are fragmented.) 1468 Used in some DHCP environments. 1436 Used in PPTP environments or with VPN. Note A wrong/improper MTU value may cause Internet communication problems. For example, you may be unable to access certain Websites, frames within Websites, secure login pages, FTP or POP servers. 2.3 WAN Speed (Available only in Wireless Router Mode) Click Basic -> WAN Speed to enter the configuration interface. Here you can configure the WAN speed and duplex mode.
33 III Features & Configurations | Tenda Tip ① The device operates in Auto (Auto-negotiation) mode by default. Usually, it works for most cases. ② In some situations, you might need to change the speed/duplex mode. For example, if the cable connected to your device's WAN port is longer than 100m, you may need to use 10M full-duplex or 10M half-duplex for better performance. Ensure that your device's WAN port operates with the same speed and duplex mode as the remote link partner. Otherwise, your device's WAN port may not receive and send data. 2.4 DNS Settings Click Basic -> DNS Settings to enter the configuration interface.
34 III Features & Configurations | Tenda Configuration Procedures: ① DNS Settings: Check/uncheck to enable/disable the DNS settings. ② Primary DNS Address: Enter the IP address of the primary DNS server provided by your ISP. ③ Secondary DNS Address: If a secondary DNS server address is available, enter it here. This field is optional. ④ Click Save to save your settings. Note The default DNS settings are recommended. Only change the DNS default settings if you know that your ISP requires specific servers. If incorrect DNS settings are configured, Webpages may not open. 2.5 MAC Clone (Available only in Wireless Router Mode) Some ISPs (Internet Service Providers) require end-user's MAC address to access their network. This feature copies your current PC's MAC address to the device. Click Basic -> MAC Clone to enter the configuration screen.
35 III Features & Configurations | Tenda Knowledge Center Restore Default MAC: Reset the device’s WAN MAC address to factory default. Clone MAC: Clicking this button copies the MAC address of the computer that you are currently using to the router. Note that you have to use the computer whose MAC address is allowed by your ISP. Also, you can manually enter the MAC address that you want to use. To restore default MAC address: ① Click Restore Default MAC. ② Click Save to save your settings. To copy the MAC address of the computer that you are currently using to the device: ① Click Clone MAC. ② Click Save to save your settings. To manually enter the MAC address allowed by your ISP: ① Enter the MAC address allowed by your ISP. ② Click Save to save your settings.
36 III Features & Configurations | Tenda 2.6 DHCP Server DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) assigns an IP addr ess to each device on the LAN/private network. When you enable the DHCP Server, the DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool specified in this screen to the requesting device as long as the device is set to "Obtain an IP Address Automatically". If you disable this feature, you have to manually configure the TCP/IP settings for all PCs on your LAN to access the Internet. Click Basic -> DHCP Server to enter the screen below. Here you can change the DHCP IP address pool and lease time. Configuration Procedures: ① DHCP Server - Enable: Check/uncheck the box to enable or disable the DHCP server feature. ② Start IP/End IP: You can specify the starting and ending addresses of the IP address pool here. These addresses should be part of the same IP address subnet as the device’s LAN IP address.
37 III Features & Configurations | Tenda ③ Lease Time: The lease time is a time length that the IP address is assigned to each device before it is refreshed. ④ Click Save to save your settings. Tip ① By default, the device functions as a DHCP server. Do not disable the DHCP server feature unless you want to manually configure the TCP/IP settings for all the PCs on your LAN. ② Lease time will be renewed automatically upon expiry. ③ If you are not an advanced user, the default DHCP server settings are recommended. 2.7 DHCP Client List Click Basic -> DHCP Client List. Here you can see a list of the DHCP dynamic clients (if any). By viewing this list, you can know whether there are unauthorized accesses. Also, you can specify a reserved IP address for a PC on your LAN. That PC will always receive the same IP address each time when it accesses the DHCP
38 III Features & Configurations | Tenda server. Reserved IP addresses could be assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings. Static Assignment Application Example: To have a PC at the MAC address of 44:37:E6:4F:37:38 always receive the same IP address of 192.168.0.123. Configuration Procedures: ① Enter the last number of the IP address you want to reserve . Here in this example, enter 123. ② Enter the MAC address of 44:37:E6:4F:37:38. ③ Click Add. ④ Click Save to save your settings. Tip ① If the IP address you have reserved for your PC is currently used by another client, then you will not be able to obtain a new IP address from the device's DHCP server, instead, you must manually specify a different IP address for your PC to access the Internet. ② For PCs that have already obtained IP addresses, you may need to perform
39 III Features & Configurations | Tenda the Repair action to activate the configured static IP addresses.
40 III Features & Configurations | Tenda 3 Wireless Settings  To configure wireless network name, channel and other basic wireless settings, see 3.1 Basic.  To secure your wireless network, see 3.2 Security.  To restrict access to your wireless network, see 3.3 Access Control.  To see who are connecting to your wireless network, see 3.4 Connection Status. 3.1 Basic Here you can configure the basic wireless settings of the device. Configuration Procedures: ① SSID: This is the public name of your wireless network. ② Channel: Select a channel or select Auto to let system automatically select one for your wireless network to operate on if you are unsure of which channel to use. The best selection is a channel that is the least used by neighboring networks. ③ Click Save to save your settings.
