Introduction

•
DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dynamic IP
address to PCs and other devices upon request. The Wireless Router can act as a DHCP
Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.
•
Multi Segment LAN Support. LANs containing one or more segments are supported,
via the Wireless Router's RIP (Routing Information Protocol) support and built-in static
routing table.
Configuration & Management
• Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN for
configuration.
•
Configuration File Upload/Download. Save (download) the configuration data from
the Wireless Router to your PC, and restore (upload) a previously-saved configuration file
to the Wireless Router.
•
Remote Management. The Wireless Router can be managed from any PC on your
LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (optionally) be configured via the
Internet.
•
Network Diagnostics. You can use the Wireless Router to perform a Ping or DNS
lookup.
•
UPnP Support. UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery and
configuration of the Wireless Router. UPnP is by supported by Windows ME, XP, or later.
Security Features
• Password - protected Configuration. Optional password protection is provided to
prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
•
Wireless LAN Security. WPA-PSK and WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) are
supported, as well as MAC-level Wireless access control to prevent unknown wireless
stations from accessing your LAN.
•
NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation)
technology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and
even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network,
only a single device - the Wireless Router.
•
Stateful Inspection Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all
incoming server requests are filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks
from external sources.
•
Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood your
Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so much
bandwidth and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable. The Wireless
Router incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
