Chapter 1
Introduction
This Chapter provides an overview of the Wireless-N Broadband Router's
features and capabilities.
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Wireless-N Broadband Router. The Wireless-N
Broadband Router is a multi-function device providing the following services:
• Shared Broadband Internet Access for all LAN users.
• Wireless Access Point for 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n Wireless Stations.
• 4-Port Switching Hub for 10BaseT or 100BaseT connections.
Figure 1: Wireless-N Broadband Router
Wireless-N Broadband Router Features
The Wireless-N Broadband Router incorporates many advanced features, carefully designed to
provide sophisticated functions while being easy to use.
Internet Access Features
• Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN or WLAN can access the Internet
through the Wireless-N Broadband Router, using only a single external IP Address. The
local (invalid) IP Addresses are hidden from external sources. This process is called NAT
(Network Address Translation).
• DSL & Cable Modem Support. The Wireless-N Broadband Router has a 10/100BaseT
Ethernet port for connecting a DSL or Cable Modem. All popular DSL and Cable Mo-
dems are supported.
• PPPoE, PPTP and L2TP Support. The Internet (WAN port) connection supports
PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet), PPTP (Peer-to-Peer Tunneling Protocol) and L2TP, as well as
"Direct Connection" type services.

Wireless-N Broadband Router User Guide
• Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. On the Internet (WAN port) connection, the Wireless-
N Broadband Router supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Address is allocated on con-
nection) and Fixed IP Address.
Advanced Internet Functions
• Application Level Gateways (ALGs). Applications which use non-standard connec-
tions or port numbers are normally blocked by the Firewall. The ability to define and
allow such applications is provided, to enable such applications to be used normally.
• Port Triggering. This feature, also called Special Applications, allows you to use
Internet applications which normally do not function when used behind a firewall.
• Port Forwarding. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your
LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
• Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your
LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
• Dynamic DNS Support. DDNS, when used with the Virtual Servers feature, allows
users to connect to Servers on your LAN using a Domain Name, even if you have a dy-
namic IP address which changes every time you connect.
• URL Filter. Use the URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN users.
• Access Control. Using the Access Control feature, you can assign LAN users to differ-
ent groups, and determine which Internet services are available to each group.
• Scheduling. Both the URL Filter and Firewall rules can be scheduled to operate only at
certain times. This provides great flexibility in controlling Internet -bound traffic.
• Logs. Define what data is recorded in the Logs, and optionally send log data to a Syslog
Server. Log data can also be E-mailed to you.
• QoS Support Quality of Service can be used to handle packets so that more important
connections receive priority over less important one.
Wireless Features
• Standards Compliant. The Wireless-N Broadband Router complies with the
IEEE802.11g (DSSS) specifications for Wireless LANs.
• Supports Pre-N Wireless Stations. The 802.11n Draft standard provides for backward
compatibility with the 802.11b standard, so 802.11n, 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless sta-
tions can be used simultaneously.
• Multi SSIDs Support. This feature can let you have 2 SSIDs on one AP, which provides
more easy way for Guest access and also secure your resource at the same time.
• Speeds to 300Mbps. All speeds up to the 802.11N maximum of 300Mbps are supported.
• WEP support. Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key sizes of
64 Bit and 128 Bit are supported. WEP encrypts any data before transmission, providing
protection against snoopers.
• WPA-PSK support. Like WEP, WPA-PSK encrypts any data before transmission,
providing protection against snoopers. The WPA-PSK is a later standard than WEP, and
provides both easier configuration and greater security than WEP.
• WPA2-PSK support. Support for WPA2 is also included. WPA2 uses the extremely
secure AES encryption method.
• 802.1x Support. Support for 802.1x mode is included, providing for the industrial-
strength wireless security of 802.1x authentication and authorization.

Introduction
• Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can check the
MAC address (hardware address) of Wireless stations to ensure that only trusted Wireless
Stations can access your LAN.
• Simple Configuration. If the default settings are unsuitable, they can be changed
quickly and easily.
• WPS Support. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) can simplify the process of connecting any
device to the wireless network by using the push button configuration (PBC) on the Wire-
less Access Point, or entering a PIN code if there's no button.
• WDS Support. Support for WDS (Wireless Distribution System) allows the Wireless
Access Point to act as a Wireless Bridge.
LAN Features
• 4-Port Switching Hub. The Wireless-N Broadband Router incorporates a 4-port
10/100BaseT switching hub, making it easy to create or extend your LAN.
• DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dynamic IP
address to PCs and other devices upon request. The Wireless-N Broadband Router can act
as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.
Configuration & Management
• Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN for configu-
ration.
• Configuration File Upload/Download. Save (download) the configuration data from
the Wireless-N Broadband Router to your PC, and restore (upload) a previously-saved
configuration file to the Wireless-N Broadband Router.
• Remote Management. The Wireless-N Broadband Router can be managed from any
PC on your LAN or Wireless LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (op-
tionally) be configured via the Internet.
• Network Diagnostics. You can use the Wireless-N Broadband Router to perform a
Ping or DNS lookup.
• UPnP Support. UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery and con-
figuration of the Wireless-N Broadband Router. UPnP is supported by Windows ME, XP,
or later.
Security Features
• Password - protected Configuration. Password protection is provided to prevent
unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
• Wireless LAN Security. WPA-PSK, WEP and Wireless access control by MAC ad-
dress are all supported. The MAC-level access control feature can be used to prevent
unknown wireless stations from accessing your LAN.
• NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation) tech-
nology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and
even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network,
only a single device - the Wireless-N Broadband Router.
• Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server requests are
filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from external sources.
• Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood your
Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so much band-
width and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable. The Wireless-N
Broadband Router incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
