11 Wireless Settings You can set parameters that are used for the wireless stations to connect to this router. The parameters include Mode, ESSID, Channel Number and Associated Client. Wireless Function Enable or Disable Wireless function here. Click Apply and wait for module to be ready & loaded.
Basic Settings Band Allows you to set the AP fixed at 802.11b or 802.11g mode. You can also select B+G+N mode to allow 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n clients at the same time. ESSID This is the name of the wireless signal which is broadcasted. All the devices in the same wireless LAN should have the same ESSID. Channel Number The channel used by the wireless LAN. All devices in the same wireless LAN should use the same channel.
Advanced Settings This tab allows you to set the advanced wireless options. The options included are Authentication Type, Fragment Threshold, RTS Threshold, Beacon Interval, and Preamble Type. You should not change these parameters unless you know what effect the changes will have on the router. Fragment Threshold "Fragment Threshold" 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 bad performance.
Preamble Type The “Long Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN compatibility while the “Short Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN performance. Broadcast ESSID If you enabled “Broadcast ESSID”, every wireless station located within the coverage of this access point can discover this access point easily. If you are building a public wireless network, enabling this feature is recommended. Disabling “Broadcast ESSID” can provide better security.
Security This Access Point provides complete wireless LAN security functions, included are WEP, IEEE 802.11x, IEEE 802.11x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared key and WPA with RADIUS. With these security functions, you can prevent your wireless LAN from illegal access. Please make sure your wireless stations use the same security function, and are setup with the same security key. Disable When you choose to disable encryption, it is very insecure to operate the WL613.
WEP 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 and enter it. You can enter four WEP keys and select one of them as a default key. Then the router can receive any packets encrypted by one of the four keys. Key Length You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128bit. The larger the key will be the higher level of security is used, but the throughput will be lower.
Click at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations. You can now configure other sections by choosing Continue, or choose Apply to apply the settings and reboot the device. WPA Pre-shared Key Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use a pre-shared key to authenticate wireless stations and encrypt data during communication. It uses TKIP or CCMP (AES) to change the encryption key frequently. So the encryption key is not easy to be cracked by hackers.
WPA-Radius 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 Apply button when you are done.
ACL This wireless router supports MAC Address Control, which prevents unauthorized clients from accessing your wireless network. Enable wireless access control Enables the wireless access control function Adding an address into the list Enter the "MAC Address” of the wireless station to be added and then click "Apply". The wireless station will now be added. If you are having any difficulties filling in the fields, just clear the MAC Address.
WPS Wi-Fi Protected Setup (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 WPS will do the rest for you. The wireless router supports two types of WPS: WPS via Push Button and WPS via PIN code.
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’. Self Pin Code This is the WPS PIN code of the wireless router. You may need this information when connecting to other WPS-enabled wireless devices. SSID This is the network broadcast name (SSID) of the router. Authentication Mode It shows the active authentication mode for the wireless connection.
12 Firewall Settings 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). Note: To enable the Firewall settings select Enable and click Apply.
DMZ If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application (e.g. Games) properly from 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 difference between the virtual server and the DMZ function is that the virtual server re-directs a particular service/Internet application (e.g.
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. SPI and Anti-Dos firewall protection blocks basic hacker attacks (DOS, Sync flood, port scan) RIP defect Discard Ping to WAN interface The router’s WAN port will not respond to any Ping requests Stateful packet inspection allows the user to manually determine which packets should be scanned.
Access You can restrict users from accessing certain Internet applications/services (e.g. Internet websites, email, FTP etc.). Access Control allows users to define the traffic type permitted in your LAN. You can control which PC client can have access to these services. Deny If you select “Deny” then all clients will be allowed to access Internet accept for the clients in the list below. Allow If you select “Allow” then all clients will be denied to access Internet accept for the PCs in the list below.
Filter client PC by MAC Check “Enable MAC Filtering” to enable MAC Filtering. Add PC Fill in “Client PC MAC Address” and “Comment” of the PC that is allowed to access the Internet, and then click “Add”. If you find any typo before adding it and want to retype again, just click "Reset" and the fields will be cleared. Remove PC If you want to remove some PC from the "MAC Filtering Table", select the PC you want to remove in the table and then click "Delete Selected".
URL block You can block access to some Web sites from particular PCs by entering a full URL address or just keywords of the Web site. Enable URL Blocking Enable/disable URL Blocking Add URL Keyword Fill in “URL/Keyword” and then click “Add”. You can enter the full URL address or the keyword of the web site you want to block.
13 Advanced Settings Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users at your local site to access the Internet through 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.
Virtual server Use the Virtual Server function when you want different servers/clients in your LAN to handle different service/Internet application type (e.g. Email, FTP, Web server etc.) from the Internet. Computers use numbers called port numbers to recognize a particular service/Internet application type. The Virtual Server allows you to re-direct a particular service port number (from the Internet/WAN Port) to a particular LAN private IP address and its service port number.
service (service/Internet application) port number from the Internet that will be re-directed to the above Private IP address host in your LAN Comment The description of this setting. Add Virtual Server Fill in the "Private IP", "Private Port", "Type", “Public Port” and "Comment" of the setting to be added and then click "Add". Then this Virtual Server setting will be added into the "Current Virtual Server Table" below.

UPNP With UPnP, all PCs in you Intranet will discover this router automatically. So, you don’t have to configure your PC and it can easily access the Internet through this router. UPnP Feature You can enable or Disable the UPnP feature here. After you enable the UPnP feature, all client systems that support UPnP, like Windows XP, can discover this router automatically and access the Internet through this router without having to configure anything.
QoS QoS can let you classify Internet application traffic by source/destination IP address and port number. You can assign priority for each type of application and reserve bandwidth for it. The packets of applications with higher priority will always go first. Lower priority applications will get bandwidth after higher priority applications get enough bandwidth. This can let you have a better experience in using critical real time services like Internet phone, video conference …etc.
Edit a QoS rule Select the rule you want to edit and click “Edit”, then enter the detail form of the QoS rule. Click “Apply” after editing the form and the rule will be saved. Adjust QoS rule priority You can select the rule and click “Move Up” to make its priority higher. You also can select the rule and click “Move Down” to make its priority lower.
