Chapter 10
NAT Forwarding
Router’s NAT (Network Address Translation) feature makes the devices in 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 host cannot initiatively communicate with the specified device in
the local network.
The router can use a forwarding feature to remove the isolation of NAT and allow
external internet hosts to intuitively communicate with the devices in the local network,
thus enabling some special features.
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.
This chapter contains the following sections:
• Translate Address and Port by ALG
• Share Local Resources over the Internet by Virtual Server
• Open Ports Dynamically by Port Triggering
• Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ
• Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by UPnP
47
Chapter 10 NAT Forwarding
10. 1. Translate Address and Port by ALG
ALG (Application Layer Gateway) allows customized NAT (Network Address Translation)
traversal filters to be plugged into the gateway to support address and port translation
for certain application layer “control/data” protocols: FTP, TFTP etc. Enabling ALG is
recommended.
Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for your router. Go to
Advanced > NAT Forwarding > ALG.
• PPTP Pass-through: If enabled, it allows Point-to-Point sessions to be tunneled
through an IP network and passed through the router.
• L2TP Pass-through: If enabled, it allows Layer 2 Point-to-Point sessions to be tunneled
through an IP network and passed through the router.
• IPSec Pass-through: If enabled, it allows IPSec (Internet Protocol Security) to
be tunneled through an IP network and passed through the router. IPSec uses
cryptographic security services to ensure private and secure communications over
IP networks.
• FTP ALG: If enabled, it allows FTP (File Transfer Protocol) clients and servers to transfer
data via NAT.
• TFTP ALG: If enabled, it allows TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) clients and servers
to transfer data via NAT.
• SIP ALG: If enabled, it allows clients communicate with SIP (Session Initiation Protocol)
servers via NAT.
48
Chapter 10 NAT Forwarding
10. 2. Share Local Resources over the Internet by
Virtual Server
When you build up a server in the local network and want to share it on the internet,
Virtual Server can realize the service and provide it to the internet users. At the same
time virtual server can keep the local network safe as other services are still invisible
from the internet.
Virtual server can be used for setting 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 configuration.
Share my personal website I’ve built in a local network with my
friends through the internet.
For example, the personal website has been built on my home
PC (192.168.1.100). I hope that my friends can visit my website.
The PC is connected to the router with the WAN IP address
218.18.232.154.

Chapter 10 NAT Forwarding
4. Click Scan, and choose HTTP. The external port, internal port
and protocol will be automatically filled in. Enter the PC’s IP
address 192.168.1.100 in the Internal IP field.
5. Click Save to save the settings.
Tips:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. You can add multiple virtual server rules if you want to provide several
services from a router. Please note that the External Port cannot be
overlapped.
Internet users can enter http://WAN IP (in this example:
http://218.18.232.154) to visit your personal website.
Tips:
1. For a WAN IP that is assigned dynamically by ISP, it is recommended to apply
and register a domain name for the WAN by DDNS, go to Set Up a Dynamic
DNS Service Account for more information. Then you can use http://domain
name to visit the website.
2. 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.
10. 3. Open Ports Dynamically by Port Triggering
Port 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 ports will be opened for subsequent connections. The router can record the IP
address of the host. When the data from the internet returns to the external ports, the

Chapter 10 NAT Forwarding
router can forward them to the corresponding host. Port triggering is mainly applied
to online games, VoIPs and video players. Common applications include MSN Gaming
Zone, Dialpad, Quick Time 4 players, and so on.
Follow the steps below to configure the port triggering rules:
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for your router.
2. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > Port Triggering and click Add.
3. Click Scan, and select the desired application. The triggering port and protocol, the
external port and protocol will be automatically filled in. Here we take MSN Gaming
Zone as an example.
4. Click Save to save the settings.
Tips:
1. You can add multiple port triggering rules according to your network need.
2. If the application you need is not listed in the Existing Applications list, you can 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 suggested.
10. 4. Make Applications Free from Port Restriction
by DMZ
When 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
51
Chapter 10 NAT Forwarding
applications, like IP camera and database software, you can set the PC to be a DMZ
host.
Note:
DMZ is most applicable when you don’t know 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.
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
with all ports opened.
1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example
192.168.1.100.
2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you
set for your router.
3. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > DMZ and select the
checkbox to enable DMZ.
4. Enter the IP address 192.168.1.100 in the DMZ Host IP
Address filed.
5. Click Save to save the settings.
The configuration is completed. You’ve set your PC to a DMZ
host and now you can join a team to game with other players.
10. 5. Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by
UPnP
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 in the both
sides of NAT device can freely communicate with each other realizing the seamless
connection of the network. You need to enable the UPnP if you want to use applications

Chapter 10 NAT Forwarding
such as multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real-time communication (for
example, VoIP or telephone conference), or remote assistance.
Tips:
1. UPnP is enabled by default in this router.
2. Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature.
3. UPnP feature needs the support of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista/ Windows 7/ Windows 8, etc. Some operating systems
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.
RouterXbox
LAN WAN
You can follow the steps to change the status of UPnP.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for your router.
2. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > UPnP and enable or disable UpnP according
to your needs.
Chapter 11
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

Settings
This chapter introduces how to change the default settings or adjust the basic
configuration of the router using the web management page.
It contains the following sections:
• Change Change LAN Settings
• Configure Configure IPv6 LAN Settings
• Specify Specify Wireless Settings
• Set Up a Dynamic DNS Service Account
• Create Static Routes
• Set Up the IPv6 Tunnel
61
Chapter 12 Customize Your Network Settings
12. 1. Change LAN Settings
12. 1. 1. Change the LAN IP Address
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 in your local network or your network requires a specific IP subnet, you
can change it.
Follow the steps below to change your IP address.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > LAN Settings page and select IPv4.
3. Enter a new IP Address appropriate to your needs.
4. Select the Subnet Mask from the drop-down list. The subnet mask together with
the IP address identifies the local IP subnet.
5. Keep IGMP Snooping enabled by default. IGMP snooping is the process of listening
to IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) network traffic. The function
prevents hosts on a local network from receiving traffic for a multicast group they
have not explicitly joined.
6. You can configure the router’s Second IP and Subnet Mask for LAN interface
through which you can also access the web management page.
7. Keep the rest settings as default.
8. Click Save to make the settings effective.
12. 1. 2. Use the Router as a DHCP Server
You can configure the router to act as a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to its clients.
To use the DHCP server function of the router, you must configure all computers on the
LAN to obtain an IP Address automatically.
62
Chapter 12 Customize Your Network Settings
Follow the steps below to configure DHCP server.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > LAN Settings page and select IPv4.
3. Enable DHCP function and select DHCP Server.
4. Specify the IP Address Pool, the start address and end address must be on the
same subnet with LAN IP. The router will assign addresses within this specified
range to its clients. It is from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.199 by default.
5. Enter a value for the Address Lease Time. The Address Lease Time is the amount
of time in which a DHCP client can lease its current dynamic IP address assigned
by the router. After the dynamic IP address expires, the user will be automatically
assigned a new dynamic IP address. The default is 1440 minutes.
6. Keep the rest settings as default and click Save.
Note:
1. The router can be configured to work as a DHCP Relay. A DHCP relay is a computer that forwards DHCP data between computers
that request IP addresses and the DHCP server that assigns the addresses. Each of the device’s interfaces can be configured as
a DHCP relay. If it is enabled, the DHCP requests from local PCs will be forwarded to the DHCP server that runs on WAN side.
2. You can also appoint IP addresses within a specified range to devices of the same type by using Condition Pool feature. For
example, you can assign IP addresses within the range (192.168.1.50 to192.168.1.80) to Camera devices, thus facilitating the
network management. Enable DHCP feature and configure the parameters according to your situation on the Advanced >
Network > LAN Settings page.
12. 1. 3. Reserve LAN IP Addresses
You can view and add a reserved address for a client. When you specify an IP address
for a device on the LAN, that device will always receive the same IP address each time
when it accesses the DHCP server. If there are some devices in the LAN that require
permanent IP addresses, please configure Address Reservation on the router for the
purpose.
Follow the steps below to reserve an IP address for your devices.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for the router.
63

12. 5. Create Static Routes
A static route is a pre-determined path that network information must travel to reach
a specific host or network. Data from one point to another will always follow the same
path regardless of other considerations. Normal internet usage does not require this
setting to be configured.
Visit multiple networks and multiple servers at the same time.
For example, in a small office, my PC can surf the internet, but I
also want to visit my company’s server. Now I have a switch and
another router. I connect the devices as shown in the following
figure so that the physical connection between my PC and my
I want to:

74
Chapter 12 Customize Your Network Settings
• 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 the router. In
the example, the IP address of the company network is the
destination IP address, so here enters 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 enters 255.255.255.255.
• 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 the data. In
the example, the data packets will be sent to the LAN port of
Router 2 and then to the Server, so the default gateway should
be 192.168.1.2.
• Interface: Determined by the port (WAN/LAN) that sends
out the data packets. In the example, the data is sent to the
gateway through the LAN port, so LAN should be selected.
5. Select the Enable This Entry check box to enable this entry.
6. Click Save to save the settings.
Open a web browser on your PC. Enter the company server’s IP
address to visit the company network.

75
Chapter 12 Customize Your Network Settings
12. 6. Set Up the IPv6 Tunnel
The IPv6 Tunnel feature helps you obtain IPv6 resources based on an IPv4 WAN
connection or vice versa.
IPv6 Tunnel is a transition mechanism that enables IPv6-only hosts to reach IPv4
services or vice versa and allows isolated IPv6 hosts and networks to reach each other
over IPv4-only infrastructure before IPv6 completely supplants IPv4. It is a temporary
solution for networks that do not support native dual-stack, where both IPv6 and IPv4
run independently.
The router provides three tunneling mechanisms: 6to4, 6rd and DS-Lite. The methods
of setting up 6rd and DS-Lite tunnel are similar.
12. 6. 1. Use the Public IPv6 Tunnel Service-6to4
The 6to4 tunnel is a kind of public service. If there are any 6to4 servers on your network,
you can use this mechanism to access IPv6 service. If your ISP provides you with an
IPv4-only connection but you want to visit IPv6 websites, you can try to set up a 6to4
tunnel.
Set up the IPv6 tunnel though my ISP doesn’t provide me with
the tunnel service.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you
set for the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > IPv6 Tunnel.
3. Enable IPv6 Tunnel, and select 6to4 as the tunneling
mechanism and select a WAN connection from the drop-
down list, then click Save.
Note:
If there is no available WAN connection to choose, make sure you have
connected to the internet and the connection type is not Bridge.
Now you can visit the IPv6 websites with the 6to4 tunnel.
I want to:
How can I
do that?
Done!
76
Chapter 12 Customize Your Network Settings
Note:
If you still can’t access IPv6 resources, it may means that no 6to4 public server was found in your network. You can
contact your ISP to sign up for IPv6 connection service.
12. 6. 2. Specify the 6rd Tunnel with Parameters Provided by Your ISP
Specify the 6rd tunnel with the parameters provided by my 6rd
tunnel service provider.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you
set for the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > IPv6 Tunnel.
3. Enable IPv6 Tunnel, and select 6rd as the tunneling
mechanism and select a WAN connection from the drop-
down list.
4. According to the parameters provided by your ISP, choose
Auto or Manual. More parameters are needed if you choose
Manual.
5. Click Save.
Note:
If there is no available WAN connection to choose, make sure you have
connected to the internet and the connection type is not Bridge.
Now you can visit the IPv6 websites with the 6rd tunnel.
Tips:
The way to set up DS-Lite tunnel is similar to that of 6rd tunnel. If you are provided with an IPv6-only WAN connection
and have signed up for DS-Lite tunnel service, specify the DS-Lite tunnel by referring to the steps above.

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 boost 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 the password you set for the router.
2. Configure the LAN IP address of the router in the same subnet as the root
router(255.255.255.0). For example, the IP address 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.
91
3. Go to Advanced > Wireless > Advanced Settings page. Locate the WDS section
and select the checkbox to enable the WDS Bridging function.
4. Click Scan to detect all available AP devices and select the network you want to
bridge with.
5. Click the connect icon and then the SSID and MAC and security will be automatically
filled in.
92
6. Click Save to make the settings effective.
7. Go to Advanced > Network > LAN Settings page to disable DHCP.
Now, the root’s wireless network is extended and you can use the modem router’s SSID
and password to enjoy the network.
Note:
• The extended router (modem router) can have different SSID and password from the root router, you can change your
modem router’s SSID and password on Basic > Wireless page.
• You can also bridge a network manually: enter the SSID (network name) and MAC Address of the network to be
bridged. Select a Security type and enter related parameters, which should be the same as the network to be bridged.
Q5. What should I do if I cannot access the internet?
1. Check to see if all the connectors are connected well, including the telephone line,
Ethernet cables and power adapter.
2. Check to see if you can log in to the web management page of the modem router. If
you cannot, please adjust your computer’s settings according to Q3 and then see
if you can access the internet. If the problem persists, please go to the next step.
3. Consult your ISP and make sure the VPI/VCI, Connection Type, account username
and password are correct. If there are any mistakes, please correct the settings and
try again.
4. Refer to Q6 to clone the MAC address.
5. If you still cannot access the internet, please restore your modem router to its
factory default settings and reconfigure your modem router by following the
instructions in Use Quick Setup Wizard.
6. Please contact our Technical Support if the problem persists.
93
Q6. How to configure MAC address?
You can manually change the MAC address of the modem router. It is helpful when your
internet access account provided by your ISP is bound to one specific MAC address,
in other words, your ISP just permits only one computer with the authenticated MAC
address to access the internet. In this case, you can use MAC Clone to allow more
computers to access the internet via the same account.
1. Visit http://tplinkwif.net, and log in with the password you set for the router.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > Internet page. Click the Add icon, and scroll down to
get the MAC Clone section.
• If you are using the computer with the authenticated MAC address to access
the modem router, please select Use Current Computer MAC Address.

Address and then enter the address.
3. Click Save to make the settings effective.
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.
Q7. What should I do if I cannot find my wireless network or I cannot
connect the wireless network?
If you fail to find any wireless network, please follow the steps below:
• Make sure the wireless function of your device is enabled if you’re using a laptop with
built-in wireless adapter. You can refer to the relevant document or contact the laptop
manufacturer.
• Make sure the wireless adapter driver is installed successfully and the wireless
adapter is enabled.
