The SPI Firewall can prevent cyber attacks and validate the traffic that is passing
through the router based on the protocol. This function is enabled by default, and it’s
recommended to keep the default settings.
DoS Protection can protect your home network against DoS attacks from flooding your
network with server requests. Follow the steps below to configure DoS Protection.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Security > Settings.
3. Enable DoS Protection.
4. Set the level (Off, Low, Middle or High) of protection for ICMP-FLOOD Attack
Filtering, UDP-FlOOD Attack Filtering and TCP-SYN-FLOOD Attack Filtering.
•
ICMP-FLOOD Attack Filtering - Enable to prevent the ICMP (Internet Control
Message Protocol) flood attack.
•
UDP-FlOOD Attack Filtering - Enable to prevent the UDP (User Datagram
Protocol) flood attack.
•
TCP-SYN-FLOOD Attack Filtering - Enable to prevent the TCP-SYN (Transmission
Control Protocol-Synchronize) flood attack.
Tips:
The level of protection is based on the number of traffic packets. The protection will be triggered immediately
when the number of packets exceeds the preset threshold value (the value can be set on Advanced > System
Tools > System Parameters > DoS Protection Level Settings), and the vicious host will be displayed in the Blocked
DoS Host List.

NAT Forwarding
The router’s NAT (Network Address Translation) feature makes devices on the LAN use
the same public IP address to communicate with devices on the internet, which protects
the local network by hiding IP addresses of the devices. However, it also brings about
the problem that an external host cannot initiatively communicate with a specified
device on the local network.
With the forwarding feature the router can penetrate the isolation of NAT and allows
devices on the internet to initiatively communicate with devices on the local network,
thus realizing some special functions.
The TP-Link router supports 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.
It contains the following sections:
• Share Local Resources on the Internet by Virtual Servers
• Open Ports Dynamically by Port Triggering
• Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ
• Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by UPnP
Chapter 11
NAT Forwarding
11. 1. Share Local Resources on the Internet by Virtual
Servers
When you build up a server on 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 for setting up public services on your local network, such as
HTTP, FTP, DNS, POP3/SMTP and Telnet. Different services use different service ports.
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.
I want to:
Share my personal website I’ve built in local network with my
friends through the internet.
For example, the personal website has been built on my home
PC (192.168.0.100). I hope that my friends on the internet can
visit my website in some way. The PC is connected to the router
with the WAN IP address 218.18.232.154.
Personal Website
Router
INTERNET
Home
How can I
do that?
LAN
WAN: 218.18.232.154
1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example
192.168.0.100.
2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or
the password you set for the router.
3. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > Virtual Servers.
4. Click Add. Click View Existing Services and select HTTP. The
External Port, Internal Port and Protocol will be automatically
filled in. Enter the PC’s IP address 192.168.0.100 in the
Internal IP field.
5. Click OK.
59
Chapter 11
NAT Forwarding
Tips:
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 Service Type, 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 External Port should not be overlapped.
•
Done!
Users on the internet can enter http:// WAN IP (in this example:
http:// 218.18.232.154) to visit your personal website.
Tips:
The WAN IP should be a public IP address. For the WAN IP is assigned dynamically by
the ISP, it is recommended to apply and register a domain name for the WAN referring
to Set Up a Dynamic DNS Service Account. Then users on the internet can use
http:// domain name to visit the website.
• If you have changed the default External Port, you should use
http:// WAN IP: External Port or http:// domain name: External Port to visit the website.
•
11. 2. Open Ports Dynamically by Port Triggering
Port Triggering can specify a triggering port and its corresponding external ports.
When a host on the local network initiates a connection to the triggering port, all the
external 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 and Quick Time 4 players, etc.
Follow the steps below to configure the Port Triggering rules:
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.
2. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > Port Triggering and click Add.
60
Chapter 11
NAT Forwarding
3. Click View Existing Applications, and select the desired application. The Triggering
Port, External Port and Protocol will be automatically filled in. The following picture
takes application MSN Gaming Zone as an example.
4. Click OK.
Tips:
• You can add multiple port triggering rules according to your network need.
• The triggering ports can not be overlapped.
• If the application you need is not listed in the Existing Applications list, please enter the parameters manually. You
should verify the external ports the application uses first and enter them into External Port field according to the
format the page displays.
11. 3. Make Applications Free from Port Restriction
by DMZ
When a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host on 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.
61
Chapter 11
NAT Forwarding
Note:
When DMZ 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.
I want to:
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 login normally but cannot join a team with
other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ host
with all ports open.
How can I
do that?
1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example
192.168.0.100.
2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or
the password you set for the router.
3. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > DMZ and select Enable
DMZ.
4. Enter the IP address 192.168.0.100 in the DMZ Host IP
Address filed.
5. Click Save.
Done!
The configuration is completed. You’ve set your PC to a DMZ
host and now you can make a team to game with other players.
11. 4. Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by
UPnP
The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows 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 thus 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.
62
Chapter 11
NAT Forwarding
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 has 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.
LAN
XBOX
WAN
Internet
Router
If necessary, you can follow the steps to change the status of UPnP.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.
2. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > UPnP and toggle on or off according to your
needs.

VPN Server
The VPN (Virtual Private Networking) Server allows you to access your home network in
a secured way through internet when you are out of home. The router offers two ways
to setup VPN connection: OpenVPN and PPTP (Point to Point Tunneling Protocol) VPN.
OpenVPN is somewhat complex but with greater security and more stable. It is suitable
for restricted environment, such as campus network and company intranet.
PPTP VPN is more easily used and its speed is faster, it’s compatible with most
operating systems and also supports mobile devices. Its security is poor and your
packets may be cracked easily, and PPTP VPN connection may be prevented by some
ISP.

13. 1. Change the LAN Settings
The router is preset with a default LAN IP 192.168.0.1, which you can use to log in to
its web management page. The LAN IP address together with the Subnet Mask also
defines the subnet that the connected devices are on. If the IP address conflicts with
another device on your local network or your network requires a specific IP subnet, you
can change it.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > LAN.
3. Type in a new IP Address appropriate to your needs. And leave the Subnet Mask as
the default settings.
4. Click Save.
Note:
If you have set the Virtual Server, DMZ or DHCP address reservation, and the new LAN IP address is not in the same
subnet with the old one, then you should reconfigure these features.
13. 2. Configure to Support IPTV Service
I want to:
Configure IPTV setup to enable Internet/IPTV/Phone service
provided by my internet service provider (ISP).
How can
I do that?
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or
the password you set for the router.

74
Chapter 13
Customize Your Network Settings
13. 3. Specify DHCP Server Settings
By default, the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server is enabled and
the router acts as a DHCP server; it dynamically assigns TCP/IP parameters to client
devices from the IP Address Pool. You can change the settings of the DHCP Server if
necessary, and you can reserve LAN IP addresses for specified client devices.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.

Most ISPs assign a dynamic IP address to the router and you can use this IP address
to access your router remotely. However, the IP address can change from time to time
and you don’t know when it changes. In this case, you might apply the DDNS (Dynamic
Domain Name Server) feature on the router to allow you and your friends to access your
router and local servers (FTP, HTTP, etc.) using a domain name without checking and
remembering the IP address.
Note:
DDNS does not work if the ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.1.x) to the router.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > Dynamic DNS.
3. Select the DDNS Service Provider (TP-Link, NO-IP or DynDNS). It is recommended
to select TP-Link so that you can enjoy TP-Link’s superior DDNS service. Otherwise,
please select NO-IP or DynDNS. If you don’t have a DDNS account, you have to
register first by clicking Go to register.

13. 5. Create Static Routes
Static routing is a form of routing that is configured manually by a network administrator
or a user by adding entries into a routing table. The manually-configured routing
information guides the router in forwarding data packets to the specific destination.
I want to:
Visit multiple networks and servers at the same time.
For example, in a small office, my PC can surf the internet through
Router A, but I also want to visit my company’s network. Now I
have a switch and Router B. I connect the devices as shown in
the following figure so that the physical connection between my
PC and my company’s server is established. To surf the internet
and visit my company’s network at the same time, I need to
configure the static routing.
Router A
Company’s server
Router B
WAN: 172.30.30.100
LAN: 192.168.0.1
LAN: 192.168.0.2
172.30.30.1
Switch
PC
192.168.0.100
78
Chapter 13
How can
I do that?
Customize Your Network Settings
1. Change the routers’ LAN IP addresses to two different IP
addresses on the same subnet. Disable Router B’s DHCP
function.
2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or
the password you set for Router A.
3. Go to Network > Advanced Routing.
4. Click Add and finish the settings according to the following
explanations:
Network Destination: The destination IP address that you want
to assign to a static route. This IP address cannot be on the same
subnet with the WAN IP or LAN IP of Router A. In the example,
the IP address of the company network is the destination IP
address, so here enter 172.30.30.1.
Subnet Mask: Determines the destination network with the
destination IP address. If the destination is a single IP address,
enter 255.255.255.255; otherwise, enter the subnet mask of
the corresponding network IP. In the example, the destination
network is a single IP, so here enter 255.255.255.255.
Default Gateway: The IP address of the gateway device to which
the data packets will be sent. This IP address must be on the
same subnet with the router’s IP which sends out data. In the
example, the data packets will be sent to the LAN port of Router
B and then to the Server, so the default gateway should be
192.168.0.2.
Interface: Determined by the port (WAN/LAN) that sends out
79
Chapter 13

Q4. How do I use the WDS Bridging function to extend my wireless
network?
For example, my house covers a large area. The wireless coverage of the router I’m
using (the root router) is limited. I want to use an extended router to extend the wireless
network of the root router.
Note:
•
WDS bridging only requires configuration on the extended router.
•
WDS bridging function can be enabled either in 2.4GHz frequency or 5GHz frequency for a dual-band router. We use
the WDS bridging function in 2.4GHz frequency as example.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.
2. Configure the IP address of the router:
1 ) Go to Advanced > Network > LAN, configure the IP address of the extended
router to be in the same subnet with the root router; (For example, the IP address
100
of the root router is 192.168.0.1, the IP address of the extended router can be
192.168.0.2~192.168.0.254. We take 192.168.0.2 as example.)
2 ) Click Save.
Note: Log in to the web management page again if the IP address of the router is altered.
3. Survey the SSID to be bridged:
1 ) Go to Advanced > System Tools > System Parameters and focus on the 2.4GHz
Wireless section, click Enable WDS Bridging.
2 ) Click Survey, locate the root router’s SSID and click Choose (Here we take
TP-Link_4F98 as example).
3 ) If the root router has wireless password, you should enter the wireless password
of the root router.
4 ) Click Save.
4. Disable DHCP:
1 ) Go to Network > DHCP Server.
2 ) Deselect Enable DHCP Server and click Save.
Now you can go to Advanced > Status > Wireless to check the WDS status. When the
WDS status is Run, it means WDS bridging is successfully built.
Q5. What should I do if I cannot access the internet even though the
101
configuration is finished?
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.

103
Tips:
•
Some ISP will register the MAC address of your computer when you access the internet for the first time
through their Cable modem, if you add a router into your network to share your internet connection, the ISP will
not accept it as the MAC address is changed, so we need to clone your computer’s MAC address to the router.
•
The MAC addresses of a computer in wired connection and wireless connection are different.
• Modify the LAN IP address of the router.
Note:
Most TP-Link routers use 192.168.0.1/192.168.1.1 as their default LAN IP address, which may conflict with the IP
range of your existing ADSL modem/router. If so, the router is not able to communicate with your modem and you
can’t access the internet. To resolve this problem, we need to change the LAN IP address of the router to avoid
such conflict, for example, 192.168.2.1.
1 ) Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set
for the router.
2 ) Go to Advanced > Network > LAN.
3 ) Modify the LAN IP address as the follow picture shows. Here we take 192.168.2.1
as an example.
