the AP’s web-based utility and functions can be found in “Chapter 4 Configuring the AP”
3.1. Configure the Device
The instructions in this section will help you configure each of your PCs to be able to
communicate with the AP.
The default IP address of the TL-WA5110G 54M High Power Wireless Access Point is
192.168.1.1. And the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values can be seen from the
LAN. They can be changed as you desire, as an example we use the default values for
description in this guide.
Connect the local PC to the LAN ports of the AP. There are then two ways to configure the IP
address for your PC.
¾
Configure the IP address manually
1)
Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC. If you need instructions as to how to do this,
please refer to Appendix B: Configuring the PC
2)
¾
Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" is from 2 to
254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gateway is 192.168.1.1 (The AP's default IP
address)
Obtain an IP address automatically
This method can be available only when DHCP in section 4.7.1 is enabled.
1)
Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in "Obtain an IP address automatically" mode on your PC.
If you need instructions as to how to do this, please refer to Appendix B: Configuring the

4.9.1 Virtual Servers
Virtual servers can be used for setting up public services on your LAN, such as DNS, Email and
FTP. A virtual server is defined as a service port, and all requests from the Internet to this service
port will be redirected to the computer specified by the server IP. Any PC that was used for a
virtual server must have a static or reserved IP Address because its IP Address may change
when using the DHCP function. You can set up virtual servers on this page, shown in Figure
4-29:
Figure 4-29 Virtual Servers
¾
Service Port - The numbers of External Ports. You can type a service port or a range of
service ports (the format is XXX – YYY, XXX is the start port, YYY is the end port).

4.9.2 Port Triggering
Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, video conferencing, Internet
calling and so on. These applications cannot work with a pure NAT router. Port Triggering is
used for some of these applications that can work with a NAT router. You can set up Port
Triggering on this page shown in Figure 4-31:
Figure 4-31 Port Triggering
Once configured, operation is as follows:
1. A local host makes an outgoing connection to an external host using a destination port
number defined in the Trigger Port field.
2. The router records this connection, opens the incoming port or ports associated with this
entry in the Port Triggering table, and associates them with the local host.
3. When necessary the external host will be able to connect to the local host using one of the
ports defined in the Incoming Ports field.
¾
¾
¾
¾
¾
Trigger Port - The port for outgoing traffic. An outgoing connection using this port will
"Trigger" this rule.
Trigger Protocol - The protocol used for Trigger Ports, TCP, UDP, or All (all protocols
supported by the router).
Incoming Ports Range - The port or port range used by the remote system when it
responds to the outgoing request. A response using one of these ports will be forwarded to
the PC that triggered this rule. You can input at most 5 groups of ports (or port section).
Every group of ports must be set apart with ",". For example, 2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085,
3010-3030.
Incoming Protocol - The protocol used for Incoming Ports Range, TCP , UDP, or ALL (all
protocols supported by the router).

hosts on the LAN will be refused.
3) Incoming Port Range enabled cannot overlap each other at the same time.
4.9.3 DMZ
The DMZ host feature allows one local host to be exposed to the Internet for a special-purpose
service such as Internet gaming or videoconferencing. DMZ host forwards all the ports at the
same time. Any PC whose port is being forwarded must have its DHCP client function disabled
and should have a new static IP Address assigned to it because its IP Address may change when
using the DHCP function. You can set up DMZ host on this page shown in Figure 4-33
