Choose your local time zone from the drop down menu. To apply the selected local time zone, click Enable and click the Apply button.
Firmware Upgrade Your router’s “firmware” is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software that runs in your router. Thus, by upgrading the newly improved version of the firmware allows you the advantage to use newly integrated features. Factory Default Settings: If select this setting, the device will reboot to restore the parameters of all its applications to its default values.
Backup / Restore These functions allow you to save a backup of the current configuration of your router to a defined location on your PC, or to restore a previously saved configuration. This is useful if you wish to experiment with different settings, knowing that you have a backup in hand in case any mistakes occur. It is advisable that you backup your router configuration before making any changes to your router configuration.
Restart There are 2 options for you to choose from before restarting the your 7800(N) device. You can either choose to restart your device to restore it to the Factory Default Settings or to restart the device with your current settings applied. Restarting your device to Factory Default Setting will be useful especially after you have accidentally changed your settings that may result in undesirable outcome.
Firewall Packet Filter Packet filtering enables you to configure your router to block specific internal / external users (IP address) from Internet access, or disable specific service requests (Port number) to / from the Internet. This configuration program allows you to set up different filter rules for different users based on their IP addresses or their network Port number.
Edit: Check the Rule No. you wish to edit, and then click “Edit”. Delete: Check the Rule No. you wish to delete, and then click “Delete”. MAC Filter A MAC (Media Access Control) address is the unique network hardware identifier for each PC on your network’s interface (i.e. its Network Interface Card or Ethernet card). Using your router’s MAC Address Filter function, you can configure the network to block specific machines from accessing your LAN.
QoS QoS helps you to control the data upload traffic of each application from LAN (Ethernet and/ or Wireless) to WAN (Internet). It facilitates you the features to control the quality and speed of throughput for each application when the system is running with full upstream load. Application: Assign a name that identifies the new QoS application rule. Rule Status: You can choose to enable or disable rule status display from the drop down menu.
Example 1: Optimize Your Home Network with QoS If you are actively engaged in using P2P and are afraid of slowing down internet access throughput of other users within your network, you can thus use QoS function to set different priorities for the different applications that members of your network will be using to avoid bandwidth traffic from getting overloaded. Therefore, in order to assign the priority status of each application, we must first create a new QoS rule for each application.
Example 2: Optimize Your Home Network with QoS If you are running a lot of standard applications you cn just create a QoS rule that has its port range set from 1 ~ 1024 and its priority set to High. This port range is defined in RFC and so it can be used by all standard applications like FTP, Telnet, HTTPS etc. Example 3: Optimize Your Home Network with QoS If you are only using a specific PC for the P2P application, you can create a rule that has a low priority.
Virtual Server Virtual Server allows you to direct incoming traffic from WAN side (identified by Protocol and External port) to the Internal server with private IP address on the LAN side. The Internal port is required only if the external port needs to be converted to a different port number used by the server on the LAN side. In TCP and UDP networks a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to.
Port Mapping Application: Select the service you wish to configure. Protocol: A protocol is automatically applied when an Application is selected from the listbox or you may select a protocol type which you want. External Port & Internal Port: Enter the public port number & range you wish to configure. Internal IP Address: Enter the IP address of a specific internal server to which requests from the specified port is forwarded. Add: Click to add a new virtual server rule.
DMZ The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets that do not use a port number which is already used by any other Virtual Server entries will first be checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms before it is passed to the DMZ host.
Advanced Static Route With static route feature, you are equipped with the capability to control the routing of the all the traffic across your network. With each routing rule created, you can specifically assign the destination where the traffic will be routed to. Destination: Enter the destination IP where the traffic is to be forwarded. Netmask: Enter the netmask of the destination. Gateway: Enter the gateway address for the traffic.
Dynamic DNS The Dynamic DNS function lets you alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, so if your ISP does not assign you a static IP address you can still use a domain name. This is especially useful when hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone wishing to connect to you may use your domain name, rather than the dynamic IP address which is assigned to you by ISP.
VLAN VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a group of devices on different physical LAN segments that can communicate with each other as if they were all on the same physical LAN segment.
Example: IPTV Service Setting Go to Advanced mode > Configuration > WAN > WAN Profile. Add a new WAN profile using the Pure Bridge protocol. Information should be provided by your local service provider. Note: Description name should not contain any space. Then go to Advanced mode > Configuration > Advanced > VLAN. Then configure a port that will use the IPTV application. The example below is a setting that illustrates that only Ethernet port #4 can connect to STB and use IPTV.
Device Management The Device Management advanced configuration settings allow you to control your router’s security options and device monitoring features. UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with the feature to control data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems.
