
Near the center of the area where your computers, smart phones and other
devices operate, and preferably within line of sight to your wireless devices.
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router

In an elevated location such as a high shelf, keeping the number of walls
and ceilings between the router and your other devices such as computers and
smart phones to a minimum.

Away from electrical devices that are potential sources of interference, such as
ceiling fans, home security systems, microwaves or PCs.

Away from any large metal surfaces, such as a solid metal door or
aluminum studs.

Away from other materials such as glass, insulated walls, fish tanks,
mirrors, brick, and concrete that can also affect your wireless signal.

you with all of the information needed to connect to the
Internet.If you cannot locate this information, ask your
ISP to provide it.
 If your ISP uses a PPPoE Internet connection, you
will need ISP login name and password.
 If you use a DHCP Internet connection, no
information is needed.
 If your ISP gives you a fixed or static IP address
for Internet connection, you will need to gather the
following information:
1) IP Address
2) Subnet Mask
3) Gateway
4) DNS Server
5) Alternate DNS Server (Optional)
2 Hardware Install
Note -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before you start, make sure you can access Intern et by connecting the cable from
the incoming Internet side to your PC.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
① Connect the cable from the incoming Internet side to the WAN port on the
router.
② Connect one of the LAN ports on the router to the RJ45 (NIC) port on your PC
using an Ethernet cable.
③ Connect the router to a surge protected power strip using the included power
adapter.
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
Note
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using a power adapter with a different voltage rating than the one included with
the Device will cause damage to the Device.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Internet Setup

detected. Click OK.
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
⑥
And the Quick Setup screen appears after you clicked the OK button.
Tip
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. If you are not using the PPPoE or Dyn amic IP (DHCP) Internet connection
type, see Static IP.
2. The default Internet connection type is DH CP (Dynamic IP).
3. The router has a preset wireless sec urity key of 12345678 but it is
deactivated by factory default. However if you click the OK button on that page,
the wireless security key of 12345678 will be activated automatically.
4. Here we use the WPA -PSK/AES for explanation. If you want to use other
security mode and/or cipher type, see Security.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 2. Internet Setup & Wireless Security Setup
A. Select Dynamic IP (DHCP) to obtain IP Address information automatically from
your ISP. Select this option if your ISP does not give you any IP information or
user name and password.

WAN MTU Setup
The MTU (maximum transmission unit)is the largest data packet a network device
trans mits.
The normal MTU value for most Ethernet networks is 1500 bytes, or 1492 bytes
for PPPoE connections. For some ISP s, you might nee d to change the MTU. This is rarel y
required, and should not be done unless you are sure it is necessar y 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 for Tenda routers 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 the
26
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
technical support of either your ISP or Tenda 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
page

Yahoo email

MSN portal
B. You use VPN and encounter serious performance problem s.
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 maxi mum value of 1500 until the problem disappears.
The common MTU sizes and applications are listed in the table below.
MTU
1500
Application
Typical for connections that do not use PPPoE or
VPN.
1492
1472
Used in PPPoE environments.
Maximum size to use for pinging. (La rger packets
are fragmented.)
Used in some DHCP environments.
Used in PPTP environments or with VPN.
1468
1436
Note ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A wrong/i mproper MTU val ue ma y cause Internet co mm unication problems. For e xa mple, you
ma y be unable to access cer tain websites, fra mes within websites, secure login pa ges, or FTP
or P OP servers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
27
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
2.3 Port Mode
Click Network -> Port Mode to enter the WAN port mode screen. Here you can
configure the router's WAN speed and duplex mode.
Tip ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The best port mode is often just the factory default of "Auto".
2. In some situations, you might need to change the port mode. For example,
if the cable connected to your router's WAN port is too long, you may need to
use 10M full-duplex or 10M half -duplex for better performance.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
28
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
2.4 MAC Clone
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 r outer.
Click Network -> MAC Clone to enter the MAC Clone screen.
Knowledge Center -----------------------------------------------------------------1. Restore Default M AC: Reset the router ’s WAN MAC to factory default.
2. Clone M AC: Clicking this butto n copies the MAC a ddress of the co mputer that you are no w
using to the router. Also, you can manually enter the MAC address that you want to use. You
have to use the computer whose MAC address is allowed by your ISP.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To restore default MAC address:
①
Click Restore Default MAC.
②
Click Save to save your settings.
To clone the MAC address of the computer that you are now using to the
router:
29
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
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.
2.5. DHCP
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) assigns an IP address 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 Internet.
Click Network -> DHCP Server to enter the DHCP Server screen. Here you can
change the DHCP IP address pool and lease time.
Configuration Procedures:
30
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
①
DHCP Server: Select whether to enable or disable the DHCP server feature.
② Start IP/End IP: You can specify the starting and ending address of the IP
address pool here. These addresses should be part of the same IP address subnet a s
the router ’s LAN IP address.
③ Lease Time: The lease time is a time length that the IP address is assigned to
each device before it is refreshed.
