N300 Wireless Dual Band ADSL2+ Modem Router DGND3300v2 User Manual
Note: The SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you configure in the N300 wireless modem router. If they do not match, you will not get a wireless connection to the N300 wireless modem router.
The Fragmentation Threshold, CTS/RTS Threshold, and Preamble Mode options are reserved for wireless testing and advanced configuration only. Do not change these settings.
•WPS Settings. These are Push 'N' connect settings used by the N300 wireless modem router when WPS clients are added.
-Router’s PIN. The number that the N300 wireless modem router broadcasts when you add a WPS client with the PIN method.
-Disable Router PIN. Selecting this check box disables the N300 wireless modem router’s PIN.
-Keep Existing Wireless Settings. This check box is cleared by default so that the N300 wireless modem router network name (SSID) and security can be set automatically if Push 'N' Connect (WPS) is used to set up the network. When the first WPS client is added, this check box is automatically selected so that the SSID and security remain the same when additional clients are added.
For information about adding WPS clients, see Using Push 'N' Connect (WPS) to Configure Your Wireless Network on page 24.
•Restricting access by MAC address. You can use the Wireless Card Access List to restrict access. See Restricting Access by MAC Address on page 35.
Wireless Guest Networks
A wireless guest network allows you to provide guests access to your wireless network without prior authorization of each individual guest. You can configure wireless guest networks and specify the security options for each wireless guest network.
The Guest Network Settings screen that you see depends on the setting in the Wireless Mode field on the Wireless Settings screen and on which selection you make from the main menu. The Guest Network selection is grayed out if it is not available. The following table shows wireless modes, menu selections, and guest networks.
