Wireless Router User Guide

Advanced Internet Functions

•Communication Applications. Support for Internet communication applications, such as interactive Games, Telephony, and Conferencing applications, which are often difficult to use when behind a Firewall.

•Special Internet Applications. Applications which use non-standard connections or port numbers are normally blocked by the Firewall. The ability to define and open ports for whatever your application may be is supported.

•Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.

•Multi-DMZ.For each WAN (Internet) IP address allocated to you, one (1) PC on your local LAN can be configured to allow unrestricted 2-way communication with Servers or individual users on the Internet. This provides the ability to run programs which are incompatible with Firewalls.

•URL Filter. Use the URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN users.

•Internet Access Log. See which Internet connections have been made.

•Access Control. Using the Access Control feature, you can assign LAN users to different groups, and determine which Internet services are available to each group.

•VPN Pass through Support. PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking) software using PPTP, L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no configuration is required.

Wireless Features

•Standards Compliant. The Wireless Router complies with the IEEE802.11g (DSSS) specifications for Wireless LANs.

•Supports both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless Stations. The 802.11g standard provides for backward compatibility with the 802.11b standard, so both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless stations can be used simultaneously.

•Speeds up to 54Mbps. All speeds up to the 802.11g maximum of 54Mbps are supported.

•WEP support. Support for 64/128bit WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included.

•Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can check the 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.

LAN Features

•4-Port Switching Hub. The Wireless 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 Router can act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.

•Multi Segment LAN Support. LANs containing one or more segments are supported, using the Wireless Router's RIP (Routing Information Protocol) support and built-in static routing table.
