High is the default setting and recommended.• Beacon Interval - Enter a value between 40-1000 milliseconds for Beacon Interval here. Beacon Interval value determines the time interval of the beacons. The beacons are the packets sent by the router to synchronize a wireless network. The default value is 100. • RTS Threshold - Here you can specify the RTS (Request to Send) Threshold. If the packet is larger than the specified RTS Threshold size, the router will send RTS frames to a particular receiving station and negotiate the sending of a data frame. The default value is 2346. • Fragmentation Threshold - This value is the maximum size determining whether packets will be fragmented. Setting a low value for the Fragmentation Threshold may result in poor network performance because of excessive packets. 2346 is the default setting and is recommended. • DTIM Interval - This value determines the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. You can specify the value between 1-255 Beacon Intervals. The default value is 1, which indicates the DTIM Interval is the same as Beacon Interval. • Enable Short GI - It is recommended to enable this function, for it will increase the data capacity by reducing the guard interval time.

ForwardingThe router’s NAT (Network Address Translation) feature makes the devices on the LAN use the same public IP address to communicate in the internet, which protects the local network by hiding IP addresses of the devices. However, it also brings about the problem that external hosts cannot initiatively communicate with the specified devices in the local network.With the forwarding feature, the router can traverse the isolation of NAT so that clients on the internet can reach devices on the LAN and realize some specific functions.The TP-Link router includes four forwarding rules. If two or more rules are set, the priority of implementation from high to low is Virtual Servers, Port Triggering, UPNP and DMZ.4. 9. 1. Virtual ServerWhen you build up a server in the local network and want to share it on the internet, Virtual Servers can realize the service and provide it to internet users. At the same time virtual servers can keep the local network safe as other services are still invisible from the internet.Virtual Servers can be used to set up public services in your local network, such as HTTP, FTP, DNS, POP3/SMTP and Telnet. Different service uses different service port. Port 80 is used in HTTP service, port 21 in FTP service, port 25 in SMTP service and port 110 in POP3 service. Please verify the service port number before the configuration.Share my personal website I’ve built in local network with my friends through the internet.For example, the personal website has been built in my home PC (192.168.0.100). I hope that my friends on the internet can visit my website in some way. My PC is connected to the router with the WAN IP address 218.18.232.154.I want to:

The service port, internal port and protocol will be automatically filled in. Enter the PC’s IP address 192.168.0.100 in the IP Address field.5. Leave the status as Enabled and click Save.Note:• It is recommended to keep the default settings of Internal Port and Protocol if you are not clear about which port and protocol to use.• If the service you want to use is not in the Common Service Port list, you can enter the corresponding parameters manually. You should verify the port number that the service needs.• You can add multiple virtual server rules if you want to provide several services in a router. Please note that the Service Port should not be overlapped.Users on the internet can enter http:// WAN IP (in this example: http:// 218.18.232.154) to visit your personal website.Note:• If you have changed the default Service Port, you should use http:// WAN IP: Service Port to visit the website.• Some specific service ports are forbidden by the ISP. If you fail to visit the website, please use another service port.4. 9. 2. Port TriggeringPort triggering can specify a triggering port and its corresponding external ports. When a host in the local network initiates a connection to the triggering port, all the external Done!
38Chapter 4 &RQƮJXUHWKH5RXWHUports will be opened for subsequent connections. The router can record the IP address of the host. When the data from the internet return to the external ports, the router can forward them to the corresponding host. Port triggering is mainly applied to online games, VoIPs, video players and common applications including MSN Gaming Zone, Dialpad, Quick Time 4 players and more.Follow the steps below to configure the port triggering rules:1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for the router.2. Go to Forwarding > Port Triggering.3. Click Add New. Select the desired application from the Common Applications list. The trigger port amd incoming ports will be automatically filled in. The following picture takes application MSN Gaming Zone as an example.4. Leave the status as Enabled and click Save.Note:• You can add multiple port triggering rules as needed.• The triggering ports can not be overlapped.• If the application you need is not listed in the Common Applications list, please enter the parameters manually. You should verify the incoming ports the application uses first and enter them in Open Port field. You can input at most 5 groups of ports (or port sections). Every group of ports must be set apart with “,”. For example, 2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.4. 9. 3. DMZWhen a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host in the local network, it is totally exposed to the internet, which can realize the unlimited bidirectional communication between internal hosts and external hosts. The DMZ host becomes a virtual server with all ports opened. When you are not clear about which ports to open in some special applications, such as IP camera and database software, you can set the PC to be a DMZ host.Note:DMZ is more applicable in the situation that users are not clear about which ports to open. When it is enabled, the DMZ host is totally exposed to the internet, which may bring some potential safety hazards. If DMZ is not in use, please disable it in time.
39Chapter 4 &RQƮJXUHWKH5RXWHUMake the home PC join the internet online game without port restriction.For example, due to some port restriction, when playing the online games, you can log in normally but cannot join a team with other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ host with all ports opened.1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example 192.168.0.100.2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for the router.3. Go to Forwarding > DMZ.4. Select Enable and enter the IP address 192.168.0.100 in the DMZ Host IP Address filed.5. Click Save.You’ve set your PC to a DMZ host and now you can make a team to game with other players.4. 9. 4. UPnPThe UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows the applications or host devices to automatically find the front-end NAT device and send request to it to open the corresponding ports. With UPnP enabled, the applications or host devices on the local network and the internet can freely communicate with each other realizing the seamless connection of the network. You may need to enable the UPnP if you want to use applications for multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real-time communication (such as VoIP or telephone conference) or remote assistance, etc.Tips:• UPnP is enabled by default in this router.• Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature.• UPnP feature needs the support of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista/ Windows 7/ Windows 8, etc. Some of operating system need to install the UPnP components).For example, when you connect your Xbox to the router which is connected to the internet to play online games, UPnP will send request to the router to open the corresponding ports allowing the following data penetrating the NAT to transmit. Therefore, you can play Xbox online games without a hitch.I want to:How can I do that?Done!
