4 Special Applications
4.1 Port Range Forwarding
Port range forwarding is useful for web servers, ftp servers, e-mail servers,
gaming and other specialized Internet applications. When you enable port
forwarding, the communication requests from the Internet to your router’s WAN
port will be forwarded to the specified LAN IP address. As seen in the figure
above, to let PC3 access service ports on PC1, you must first configure port
forwarding settings on the router to which PC1 is uplinked.
1. Start/End Port: Specify a range of ports between 1~65535 (for a single port,
enter the port number in both Start and End fields, say, 21 for FTP). Contact
corresponding service provider if you don't know the port number of the
service to use.
47
Wireless N150/N301 Easy Setup Router
2. LAN IP: Specify the internal host’s IP address. Be sure to statically assign the
host’s IP address to make this function constant.
3. Protocol: Specify the protocol required for the service utilizing the port(s).
4. Enable: Check to enable current settings.
5. OK: Click to activate your settings.
Now, your friends only need to enter ftp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:21 in their browsers
to access your FTP server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the router's WAN IP address.
Assuming it is 172.16.102.89, and then your friends need to enter
ftp://172.16.102.89：21 in their browsers.
For example: You want to share some large files with your friends who are not
in your LAN; however it is not convenient to transfer such large files across
network. Then, you can set up your own PC as a FTP server and use the Port
(Range) Forwarding feature to let your friends access these files. Assuming that
the static IP address of the FTP server (Namely, your PC) is 192.168.0.10, you
want your friends to access this FTP server through default port of 21 using the
TCP protocol, then do as follows:
1. Start/End Port: Enter 21 in both Start Port and End Port fields.
2. LAN IP: Enter 192.168.0.10
3. Protocol: Select TCP.
4. Enable: Check to enable current settings.
5. OK: Click to activate your settings.
48
Wireless N150/N301 Easy Setup Router
Note: If you include port 80 on this section, you must set the port for remote
(web-based) management to a different number than 80, such as 8080, otherwise
the virtual server feature may not take effect.
4.2 DMZ Host
The DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) function disables the firewall on the router for
one device for a special purpose service such as Internet gaming or video
conferencing. Enabling DMZ host may expose your local network to potential
attacks. So it is advisable to use it with caution.
DMZ Host IP Address: The IP Address of the device for which the router’s
firewall will be disabled. Be sure to statically set the IP Address of that device
for this function to be consistent.
Enable: Check/uncheck to enable/disable the DMZ host feature.
OK: Click to enable your settings.
Note:
Once enabled, the DMZ host loses protection from device's firewall and
becomes vulnerable to attacks.
4.3 DDNS
Dynamic DNS or DDNS is a term used for the updating in real time of Internet
Domain Name System (DNS) name servers. Dynamic DNS or DDNS is a term
used for the updating in real time of Internet Domain Name System (DNS) name
servers. We use a numeric IP address allocated by Internet Service Provider (ISP)
to connect to Internet; the address may either be stable ("static"), or may change
from one session on the Internet to the next ("dynamic"). However, a numeric
address is inconvenient to remember; an address which changes unpredictably
makes connection impossible. The DDNS provider allocates a static host name
to the user; whenever the user is allocated a new IP address this is
49
Wireless N150/N301 Easy Setup Router
communicated to the DDNS provider by software running on a computer or
network device at that address; the provider distributes the association between
the host name and the address to the Internet's DNS servers so that they may
resolve DNS queries. Thus, uninterrupted access to devices and services whose
numeric IP address may change is maintained. (You need to have an account
with one of the Service Providers in the drop-down menu first.)
DDNS Service: Select to enable/disable the DDNS feature.
Service Provider: Select your DDNS service provider from the drop-down
menu. (Here you can see a list of available service providers. Note that service
providers not listed here are not available for use.)
User Name: Enter the registered user name.
Password: Enter the registered password.
Domain Name: Enter the domain name you register, say, tenda.dyndns.org.
OK: Click to activate your settings.
Note:
This feature is usually used together with virtual server and is disabled by
default. Configure necessary settings on port forwarding interface and enter the
information provided by your DDNS service provider on the DDNS screen.
Others can access your web server by simply entering http://tenda.dyndns.org in
their browser address bar.
4.4 UPNP
The Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) feature allows network devices, such as
computers from Internet, to access resources on local host or devices as needed.
UPnP-enabled devices can be discovered automatically by the UPnP service
50
Wireless N150/N301 Easy Setup Router
application on the LAN. This feature is enabled by default. No settings are
required.
Enable UPnP: Check/uncheck to enable/disable the UPnP feature.
OK: Click to complete your settings.
4.5 Static Routing
When there are several routers in the network, you may want to set up static
routing. Static routing determines the path of the data in your network. You can
use this feature to allow users on different IP domains to access the Internet via
this device. It is not recommended to use this setting unless you are familiar with
static routing. In most cases, dynamic routing is recommended, because this
feature allows the router to detect the physical changes of the network layout
automatically. If you want to use static routing, make sure the router’s DHCP
function is disabled.
1. Destination Network IP Address: Specify a single IP address, say,
172.17.0.100, or an IP net segment, .say, 192.168.88.0.
2. Subnet Mask: Specify a Subnet Mask that corresponds to the specified
destination IP.
51
Wireless N150/N301 Easy Setup Router
3. Gateway: Specif the IP address for next hop.
4. OK: Click to activate your settings.
Note:
1. Gateway must be on the same IP net segment as device's LAN/WAN IP
address.
2. Subnet Mask must be entered 255.255.255.255 if destination IP address is a
host.
3. Subnet Mask must be entered accordingly if destination IP address represents
an IP network segment. It must correspond to the specified IP address. For
example, for IP address of 10.0.0.0, you may enter a subnet mask of
255.0.0.0.
4.6 Routing Table
This page displays the device core routing table which lists destination IP, subnet
mask, gateway, hop count and interface.
The principal task for a router is to look for an optimal transfer path for each
data packet passing through it, and transfer it to the specified destination. To
complete this work, the router stores and maintains related data of various
transfer paths, i.e. establishing a routing table, for future route selection.

Appendix 1 Glossary
Channel
A communication channel, also known as channel, refers either to a physical
transmission medium such as a wire or to a logical connection over a
multiplexed medium such as a radio channel. It is used to transfer an information
signal, such as a digital bit stream, from one or more transmitters to one or more
receivers. If there is only one AP in the range, select any channel you like. The
default is Auto.
If there are several APs coexisting in the same area, it is advisable that you select
a different channel for each AP to operate on, minimizing the interference
between neighboring APs. For example, if 3 American- standard APs coexist in
one area, you can set their channels respectively to 1, 6 and 11 to avoid mutual
interference.
SSID
Service set identifier (SSID) is used to identify a particular 802.11 wireless LAN.
It is the name of a specific wireless network. To let your wireless network
adapter roam among different APs, you must set all APs’ SSID to the same
name.
WPA/WPA2
The WPA protocol implements the majority of the IEEE 802.11i standard. It
enhances data encryption through the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)
which is a 128-bit per-packet key, meaning that it dynamically generates a new
key for each packet. WPA also includes a message integrity check feature to
prevent data packets from being hampered with. Only authorized network users
can access the wireless network. The later WPA2 protocol features compliance
with the full IEEE 802.11i standard and uses Advanced Encryption Standard
(AES) in addition to TKIP encryption protocol to guarantee better security than
that provided by WEP or WPA. Currently, WPA is supported by Windows XP
SP1.
IEEE 802.1X Authentication
IEEE 802.1X Authentication is an IEEE Standard for port-based Network
Access Control (PNAC). It is part of the IEEE 802.1 group of networking
64
Wireless N150/N301 Easy Setup Router
protocols. It provides an authentication mechanism to devices wishing to attach
to a LAN or WLAN.IEEE 802.1X defines the encapsulation of EAP over LAN
or EAPOL. 802.1X authentication involves three parties: a supplicant, an
authenticator, and an authentication server. The supplicant is a client device
(such as a laptop) that wishes to attach to the LAN/WLAN - though the term
'supplicant' is also used interchangeably to refer to the software running on the
client that provides credentials to the authenticator. The authenticator is a
network device, such as an Ethernet switch or wireless access point; and the
authentication server is typically a host running software supporting the
RADIUS and EAP protocols. The authenticator acts like a security guard to a
protected network. The supplicant (i.e. client device) is not allowed access
through the authenticator to the protected side of the network until the
supplicant’s identity has been validated and authorized. With 802.1X port-based
authentication, the supplicant provides credentials, such as user name / password
or digital certificate, to the authenticator, and the authenticator forwards the
credentials to the authentication server for verification. If the authentication
server determines the credentials are valid, the supplicant (client device) is
allowed to access resources located on the protected side of the network.
PPPOE
The Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a network protocol for
encapsulating PPP frames inside Ethernet frames. Integrated PPP protocol
implements authentication, encryption, and compression functions that
traditional Ethernet cannot provide and can also be used in the cable modem and
digital subscriber line (DSL) and Ethernet that provide access service to the
users. Essentially, it is a protocol that allows to establish a point-to-point tunnel
between two Ethernet interfaces within an Ethernet broadcast domain.
DNS
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical distributed naming system
for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private
network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each
of the participating entities. A Domain Name Service resolves queries for these
names into IP addresses for the purpose of locating computer services and
devices worldwide. An often-used analogy to explain the Domain Name System
is that it serves as the phone book for the Internet by translating human-friendly
65
Wireless N150/N301 Easy Setup Router
computer hostnames into IP addresses.
WDS
A wireless distribution system (WDS) is a system enabling the wireless
interconnection of access points in an IEEE 802.11 network. It allows a wireless
network to be expanded using multiple access points without the traditional
requirement for a wired backbone to link them. All base stations in a wireless
distribution system must be configured to use the same radio channel, method of
encryption (none, WEP, or WPA) and the same encryption keys. They may be
configured to different service set identifiers. WDS also requires every base
station to be configured to forward to others in the system. WDS may also be
considered a repeater mode because it appears to bridge and accept wireless
clients at the same time (unlike traditional bridging).WDS may be incompatible
between different products (even occasionally from the same vendor) since it is
not certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance. WDS may provide two modes of wireless
AP-to-AP connectivity:
Wireless bridging, in which WDS APs communicate only with each other and
don't allow wireless clients or stations (STA) to access them.
Wireless repeating, in which APs communicate with each other and with
wireless STAs.
DMZ
In computer security, a DMZ (sometimes referred to as a perimeter networking)
is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization's
external-facing services to a larger untrusted network, usually the Internet. The
purpose of a DMZ is to add an additional layer of security to an organization's
local area network (LAN); an external attacker only has access to equipment in
the DMZ, rather than any other part of the network. Hosts in the DMZ have
limited connectivity to specific hosts in the internal network, although
communication with other hosts in the DMZ and to the external network is
allowed. This allows hosts in the DMZ to provide services to both the internal
and external network, while an intervening firewall controls the traffic between
the DMZ servers and the internal network clients. Any services such as Web
servers, Mail servers, FTP servers and VoIP servers, etc. that are being provided
to users on the external network can be placed in the DMZ.

as possible.
1. Q: I entered the device’s LAN IP address in the web browser but cannot
access the utility. What should I do?
a.Check whether device is functioning correctly. The SYS LED should blink a
few seconds after device is powered up. If it does not light up, then some
internal faults may have occurred.
b.Verify physical connectivity by checking whether a corresponding port’s link
LED lights up. If not, try a different cable. Note that an illuminated light does
NOT ALWAYS indicate successful connectivity.
c. Run the "ping 192.168.0.1" command. If you get replies from 192.168.0.1,
open your browser and verify that Proxy server is disabled. In case that ping
fails, press and hold the "RESET" button on your device for 7 seconds to restore
factory default settings, and then run "ping192.168.0.1" again.
d. Contact our technical support for help if the problem still exists after you tried
all the above.
2. Q: What should I do if I forget the login password to my device?
A: Reset your device by pressing the Reset button for over 7 seconds. Note: All
settings will be deleted and restored to factory defaults once you pressed the
Reset button.
3. Q: My computer shows an IP address conflict error after having
connected to the device. What should I do?
a.Check if there are other DHCP servers present in your LAN. If there are
other DHCP servers except your router, disable them immediately.
b.The default IP address of the device is 192.168.0.1; make sure this
address is not used by another PC or device. In case that two computers or
devices share the same IP addresses, change either to a different address.
4.Q: I cannot access Internet and send/receive emails; what
should I do?
This problem mainly happens to users who use the PPPoE or Dynamic IP
71
Wireless N150/N301 Easy Setup Router
Internet connection type. You need to change the MTU size (1492 by default). In
this case, go to “WAN Settings” to change the MTU value from default 1480 to
1450 or 1400, etc.
5. Q: How do I share resources on my computer with users on Internet
through the device?
To let Internet users access internal servers on your LAN such as e-mail server,
Web, FTP, via the device, use the "Virtual Server" feature. To do so, follow steps
below:
Step 1: Create your internal server, make sure the LAN users can access
these servers and you need to know related service ports, for example, port
number for Web server is 80; FTP is 21; SMTP is 25 and POP3 is 110.
Step 2: Enter Port Forwarding (also called Port Range Forwarding on some
products) screen from device web UI.
Step 3: Complete the Start Port (also called External/Ext Port on some
products) and End Port (also known as Internal/Int Port on some products) fields,
say, 80-80.
Step 5: Input the internal server’s IP address. For example, assuming that
your Web server’s IP address is 192.168. 0.10, then simply input it.
Step 6: Select a proper protocol type: TCP, UDP, or Both depending on
which protocol(s) your internal host is using.
Step 7: Click Enable and save your settings.
