network or to create a new network. The default PIN may be printed on
the bottom of the router. For extra security, a new PIN can be generated.

will either display the wireless network settings to guide you through
manual configuration, prompt you to enter the PIN for the device, or ask
you to press the configuration button on the device. If the device supports
Wi-Fi Protected Setup and has a configuration button, you can add it to
the network by pressing the configuration button on the device and then

Advanced Network

Provide advanced network settings such as UPnP, WAN Ping, WAN
Speed, and Multicast stream Enablers.
 UPnP
This section allows admins to enable or disable UPnP which helps other
UPnP LAN hosts interoperate with the router. Leave the UPnP option
enabled as long as the LAN has other UPnP applications.
 WAN Ping
If admins enable this feature, the WAN port of your router will respond to
ping requests from the Internet that are sent to the WAN IP Address.
 WAN Port Speed
The WAN speed is usually detected automatically. However, admins can
select the speed manually.
 Multicast Stream
The router uses the IGMP protocol to support efficient multicasting –
transmission of identical content, such as multimedia, from a source to a
number of recipients. This section allows admins to enable or disable
multicast stream support.
2.2.3.12
IPv6

The IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) section is where you configure your
IPv6 Connection type.
 Link-local Mode
Link-local address is used by nodes and routers when communicating with
neighboring nodes on the same link. This mode enables IPv6-capable
devices to communicate with each other in the LAN side.
 Static IPv6 Mode
Used when your ISP provides you a set IPv6 address that does not change.
The IPv6 information is manually entered in your IPv6 configuration
settings. You must enter the IPv6 address, Subnet Prefix Length, Default
Gateway, Primary DNS Server, and Secondary DNS Server. Your ISP
provides you with all of this information.
 DHCPv6 Mode
A method of connection where the ISP assigns your IPv6 address when
your router requests one from the ISP’s server. Some ISP’s require you to
make some settings on your side before your router can connect to the
IPv6 Internet.
 PPPoE
Select this option if your ISP requires you to use a PPPoE (Point to Point
Protocol over Ethernet) connection to IPv6 Internet. DSL providers
typically use this option. This method of connection requires you to enter
a Username and Password (provided by your Internet Service Provider) to
gain access to the IPv6 Internet. The supported authentication protocols
are PAP and CHAP.
