Click to save configuration and connect to ISP provider. WIRELESS - Basic In basic setting page, you can set wireless Radio, Mode, Band, SSID, and Channel.
Radio: You can turn on/off wireless radio. If wireless Radio is turned off, the ENHWI-N3 will not take wireless connections. Mode: Three operation modes for selections, the AP router and AP router with WDS. If you choose AP Router Mode, there will be two selections under it, the AP or WDS function in the drop-down menu. Band: You can select the wireless standards running on your network environment such as the following: 2.4 GHz(B): If all your clients are using 802.11b 2.
ESSID1 to ESSID4: ESSID is the name of your wireless network. It is recommended to use a unique name to identify your wireless device in the LAN. This is case sensitive and up to 32 printable characters. Auto Channel: Disable by default. If Enabled will automatically search all channels and automatically change to the clearest channel detected. Different items are visible below the Auto Channel. Channel: Channel 11 by default. This is visible only when the Auto Channel is disabled.
MAC address 1~4: Please enter the MAC address(es) of the neighboring APs that participates in the WDS. A maximum of 4 devices are allowed. Set Security: WDS Security depends on your AP security settings. Note: It does not support mixed mode such as WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Mixed mode.
- Advanced On this tab you can set the advanced wireless settings. If you’re in doubt what to enter or use here, leave these settings as it is. This is for advance users only. Wrong parameters can make the router un-operational. Fragment Threshold: Default value is 2346.Specifies the maximum size of a packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted. If you set this value too low, it will result in a bad performance. RTS Threshold: Default value is 2347.
DTIM Period: Default value is 1. Enter a value between 1 and 255 for the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. Data Rate: The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets. The access point will use the highest possible selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets.
ESSID Selection: ENHWI-N3 router supports multiple ESSID, you can name your wireless ESSID here. Broadcast ESSID: If you enabled “Broadcast ESSID”, every wireless station located within the coverage of this Router can see this ESSID. If you are building a public wireless network, enabling this feature is recommended. Disabling “Broadcast ESSID” can provide better security.
IEEE 802.1x is an authentication protocol using RADIUS server. When this is Enabled, every LAN user must use an account to login to this Access Point before accessing the wireless LAN. The authentication is processed by a RADIUS server. This mode only authenticates users by IEEE 802.1x, but it does not encrypt the data during communication. WEP Encryption When you select 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key, you have to enter WEP keys to encrypt data. You can generate the key by yourself.
Authentication Type: There are two authentication types: "Open System" and "Shared Key". Both AP and wireless client must be configured with the same authentication type. Key Length: You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit. The larger the key will be the higher level of security is used, but the throughput will be lower. Key Type: You may select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal Digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key.
64-bit WEP: input 10-digits Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 5-digit ASCII character as the encryption keys. 128-bit WEP: input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 13-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys. Click at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations. WPA Pre-Shared Key Encryption Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard.
WPA-RADIUS Encryption Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use an external RADIUS server to authenticate wireless stations and provide the session key to encrypt data during communication. It uses TKIP or CCMP (AES) to change the encryption key frequently. Press button when you are done.
- MAC Address Filtering This wireless router supports MAC Address Control, which prevents unauthorized clients from accessing your wireless network. Enable wireless access control: Enable the wireless access control function Adding an address into the list Enter the "MAC Address" and "Description" of the wireless station to be added and then click . The wireless station will now be added into the "MAC Address Filtering Table" below.
Click at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations. - Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS™) WPS™ is the simplest way to establish a connection between the wireless clients and the wireless router. You don’t have to select the encryption mode and fill in a long encryption passphrase every time when you try to setup a wireless connection. You only need to press a button on both wireless client and wireless router, and the WPS will do the rest for you.
WPS Current Status: If the wireless security (encryption) function of this wireless router is properly set, you’ll see a ‘Configured’ message here. Otherwise, you’ll see ‘UnConfigured’. Click the “Release Configuration” can clear the security settings of the 1st SSID. Self Pin Code: This is the WPS PIN code of the wireless router.

FIREWALL The Broadband router provides extensive firewall protection by restricting connection parameters, thus limiting the risk of hacker attacks, and defending against a wide array of common Internet attacks. However, for applications that require unrestricted access to the Internet, you can configure a specific client/server as a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).
- Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application (e.g. Games) properly behind the NAT firewall, then you can open up the firewall restrictions to unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining a DMZ Host. The DMZ function allows you to re-direct all packets going to your WAN port IP address to a particular IP address in your LAN.
The Broadband router's firewall can block common hacker attacks, including Denial of Service, Ping of Death, Port Scan and Sync Flood. If Internet attacks occur the router can log the events.

If you want remove all URL keywords from the table, click button. If you want to clear the selection and re-select again, just click .
ADVANCED - Network Address Translation (NAT) Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users at your local LAN site to access the Internet using a single Public IP Address or multiple Public IP Addresses. NAT provides Firewall protection from hacker attacks and has the flexibility to allow you to map Private IP Addresses to Public IP Addresses for key services such as Websites and FTP. Select Disable to disable the NAT function.
