End IP Input the end IP address of the IP address leases. 39 Enable Static DHCP Enable Static DHCP Leases (This allows only 16 sets Leases of addresses.) 40 Chapter 8: 2.4G Wireless You can setup Wireless LAN connection parameters of BR-6479Gn in this page After you unboxed the BR-6479Gn and powered it on, just 2 minutes later and without any configuration, a wireless network without any encryption was established. In other words, there is no Encryption and setting of 802.11 for BR-6479Gn from the factory default. In the next sections, we are going to tell you how to encrypt for your BR-6479Gn that helps to secure your Wireless LAN. 8-1 Basic Settings Mode Wireless Standard There are 6 Mode options: AP, Station-Infrastructure, AP Bridge-Point to Point, AP Bridge-Point to Multi-Point, AP Bridge-WDS, Universal Repeater. BR-6479Gn supports three wireless standards:
41 ESSID Broadcast ESSID Channel Number Channel Width Wireless Clients
(a)2.4GHz(b+g+n): 802.11b + 802.11g +802.11n (default setting)
(b) 2.4GHz(b): 802.11b
(c) 2.4GHz(g): 802.11g
(d) 2.4GHz(n): 802.11n
(e) 2.4GHz(b+g): 802.11b and 802.11g ESSID is the name of broadband router which is used to identify your own broadband router from others in the same area. If you enable Broadcast ESSID, the router will be opened to be searched and accessed by wireless adapters or devices. If you disable Broadcast ESSID, this ESSID wont be searched, only those who know this ESSID can access it. Select the channel number of frequency ranges. North America uses channel 1~11. Europe uses channel 1~13. There are 2 channel width: 20MHz and 40MHzWe recommend you to choose Auto 20/40MHz. Click Show Active Clients button to show the list of all connected wireless clients. You can click Refresh in new window to get the latest list again, or click Close to close the window. Wireless Standard (IEEE 802.11b/g/n) Normally an indoor environment would adapt b+g+n andAuto 20/40 MHz. This is because such settings can help data transmitting in short distance to be in higher speed. If youd like to use BR-6479Gn for longer distant data transmitting, you are recommended to apply 802.11b and 20MHz. This is because long distant transmission is difficult to meet high speed wireless transfer rates at 150~300Mbps, so for the sake of more sophisticated transmission quality, we recommend to manually reduce the speed and bandwidth to achieve a more precise transmission quality. Channel Number Allowable channels, allowed users and maximum power levels within frequency ranges are applied to countries accordingly. You may consult your local authorities. Here we add the channel information for your reference. For further information, you may check Wikipedia. 42 Frequency

Therefore, you may think it in the way that Disable Broadcast ESSID is the easiest way to secure your network. 8-1-2 Show List of Wireless Clients When you press the Show List button of Wireless Clients, you can see the info of those wireless client devices that are accessing to the router. Following comes with the example of the list. 43 8-2 Encryption The factory default is Disable. Click the dropdown menu, you will see three encryption options: WEP / WPA pre-shared key / WPA RADIUS. Here we recommend you to choose WPA pre-shared key to encrypt your network. If you have enable the WPA2 encryption and setup your password when you were running iQ Setup to setup your BR-6479Gn at the first time, you will see your settings as follow and you can change your settings in this page as well. 8-2-1 WEP When you choose WEP as your network encryption, you have two different options based on the key length: 64-bit and 124-bit. The higher the encryption bit, the more secure your network. However, neither 64-bit nor 128-bit encryption, they are both easier to be decoded than WPA. So we suggest you to choose WPA as your network encryption method. 44 Key Length Choose 64bit or 128bit Key Format Choose ASCII or Hex Default Tx Key Choose the Key to apply Encryption Key1~4 Enter 4 sets of Encryption Key Enable 802.1x Authentication Enable / Disable 802.1x Authentication RADIUS Server IP address Input the IP address of RADIUS authentication server here. RADIUS Server Port Input the port number of RADIUS authentication server here. The default value is 1812 as most RADIUS servers use that. RADIUS Server Password Input the password of RADIUS authentication server here. 8-2-2 WPA pre-shared key When you enable WPA pre-shared key, you can see three encryption options: WPA (TKIP), WPA2 (AES) and WPA (Mixed). WPA and WPA2 are different WPA versions and protection mechanisms. WPA is Initial WPA version that supplies enhanced security over the older WEP protocol. WPA 2 is the successor of WPA that provides additional security and its encryption mechanism is stronger than WPA. Here we suggest you to choose WPA2 Mixed so that you can have comprehensive WPA protection. 45 8-2-3 WPS RADIUS WPA Encryption RADIUS Server IP address RADIUS Server Port RADIUS Server Password There are three options for WPA encryption:
WPA(TKIP)WPA2(AES)WPA2 Mixed Input the IP address of RADIUS authentication server here. Input the port number of RADIUS authentication server here. The default value is 1812 as most RADIUS servers use that. Input the password of RADIUS authentication server here. 8-3 Advanced Settings This section is about advanced wireless settings of BR-6479Gn. For these adjustable values you see here are all relevant to technical knowhow that if you are not familiar with them, please keep them with the factory default in case any worse performance would be caused. 46 Fragment Threshold RTS Threshold Beacon Interval DTIM Period Data Rate MSC index Preamble Type WMM CTS Protect Tx Power Set up the value of Fragment Threshold. (Default: 2346) Set up the value of RTS Threshold. (Default: 2347) Set up the value of Beacon Interval. (Default: 100ms) Set up the value of DTIM Period. (Default: 3) Set up the value of Data Rate. (Default: Auto) Set up the value of MSC index. (Default: Auto) There are two options: Short Preamble and Long Preamble. Enable WMM Set up the way of CTS Protect: Auto, Always, None Set up the percentage of Tx Power 47 8-4 WPS WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) provides an easy and secure way to establish the connection between BR-6479Gn and wireless clients. Any WPScompatible wireless clients can establish secure connection with BR-6479Gn through simple pushbutton type configuration or Pin Code type configuration. We recommend you to have both WPA2 encryption and WPS to protect your network. Step 1. As above mentioned, have your ESSID and WPA2 password settings done first. Tips for MIS: If you have ESSID and WPA2 password settings done first, later when you set up you WPS, the secure connection will be configured according to your ESSID and password. Step 2. When you move to this page, please get your WPS wireless adapter or device ready at the same time. Step 3. Please click Start PBC or press the WPS button. Enable your client WPS wireless adapter or device within 2 minutes and the WPS connection will be done after that. 48 8-5 Access Control Through Access Control, you can restrict your computers from accessing improper website or using disallowed applications. Only computers with certain MAC address are allowed to access the network or prevent computers in the list to access Internet. 8-6 Wireless Schedule When you enable Wireless Schedule, you can schedule time within seven days to the open and close the wireless network function, for example, 8:00~20:00, Monday through Friday, the wireless network is accessible, but other time is unavailable. However, Wireless Schedule function must be coped with the NTP Server, which means that your BR-6479Gn must connect with Internet in order to get the network time from NTP Server. 49 Chapter 9: NAT NAT (Network Address Translations) solves the problem of sharing a single IP address to multiple computers. Without NAT, all computers must be assigned with a valid Internet IP address to get connected to Internet, but Internet service providers only provide very few IP addresses to every user. Therefore its necessary to use NAT technology to share a single Internet IP address to multiple computers on local network, so everyone can get connected to Internet. BR-6479Gn supports four types of NAT functions, and the instructions of these functions will be given below. NAT (Network Address Translation) is a way to map an entire network (or networks) to a single IP address. It is necessary especially when the number of IP addresses assigned by your ISP is less than the total numbers that you wish to provide for Internet access. As for Fast NAT. it is a fast translation function, but has to go with other network devices functions, such as session control. Fast NAT is seldom used at home or in offices, so the default setting is Disable 9-1 Port Forwarding If your networking devices can run protocols, such as http, ftp, for external communications, enable Port Forwarding can help you to keep them open to Internet access. 50 Private IP Computer Name Type Port Range Comment Set the IP address for internal computers or devices usage The Windows computer name can be chosen automatically. Set up the network communication protocol. The port number(s) of Internet IP address and private IP address (the IP address on local network) must be the same. Input the starting port number in the left field, and input the ending port number in the right field. If you only want to redirect a single port number, just fill the port number in the left field. You may input texts(up to 16 alphanumerical characters) to note this mapping, 9-2 Virtual Server This function allows you to redirect a port on Internet IP address (on WAN port) to a specified port of an IP address on local network, so you can setup an Internet service on the computer on local network, without exposing it on Internet directly. You can also build various sets of port redirection, to provide various Internet services on different local computers via a single Internet IP address. 9-3 UPnP UPnP allows other network devices to communicate with BR-6479Gn to exchange information about network capability for intercommunication. Enabling UPnP will make it easy for computers (Windows XP or above) to browse in Network Neighborhood. 51 9-4 ALG ALG (Application Layer Gateway) is a network connection ability which supports specific network applications, such as game and instant online chat. Without ALG, these applications will not be able to communicate with their server when working with BR6475nD. 52 Chapter 10: Firewall BR-6479Gn supports several firewall functions, such as DMZ, Access Control, URL Blocking and DoS, which will help you to protect your network and computer. To set up the fore-mentioned functions, you will have to enable Firewall module function first. 10-1 DMZ DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) is a special area in your local network that all computers in this area uses private IP address. But these private IP addresses are mapped to a certain Internet IP address, so other people on Internet can fully access those computers in DMZ. Public IP Address Client PC IP address Add Reset You can select Dynamic IP or Static IP here. If you select Dynamic IP, you have to select an Internet connection session from dropdown menu; if you select Static IP, please input the IP address that you want to map to a specific private IP address. Input the private IP address that the Internet IP address will be mapped to. Add the mapping to port forwarding table. Remove all inputted values. 53 10-2 Access Control By using access control, you can restrict your computers from accessing improper website, or using disallowed applications. You can even just allow computers with certain MAC address to access the network, or deny the computers in the list from accessing Internet. Enable MAC Filtering Table:
Check the box to enable MAC address based filtering, and select Deny or Allow to decide the behavior of MAC filtering table. If you select deny, all MAC addresses listed in filtering table will be denied from connecting Internet; if you select allow, only MAC addresses listed in filtering table will be able to connect to Internet. Enable IP Filtering Table:
This function is similar to MAC Filtering. The difference in between is that access to the router is controlled by IP address and here it offers more settings values. 10-3 URL Blocking If you want to prevent computers in local network from accessing certain website (like pornography, violence, or anything you want to block), you can use this function to stop computers in local network from accessing the site you defined here. Please check Enable URL Blocking first. Input the URL (host name or IP address of website, like http://www.blockedsite.co m or http://11.22.33.44), or the keyword which is contained in URL (like pornography, cartoon, stock, or anything) in the URL/Keyword box field, then you can 54 block the URL according to your definition. 10-4 DoS (Denial of Service) DoS (Denial of Service) is a common attack measure, by transmitting a great amount of data or request to your Internet IP address and server, the Internet connection will become very slow, and server may stop responding because the traffics is much more than it can handles. BR-6479Gn has a builtin DoS attack prevention mechanism; when you activate it, BR-6479Gn will stop the DoS attack for you:
If you are not familiar with these functions, we suggest you to keep the factory default settings and leave them to technician to set up for you in case that the routers performance turns bad. Ping of Death Discard Ping from WAN Ping of Death is a special packet, and it will cause certain computer to stop responding. Check this box and BR-6479Gn will filter this kind of packet out. Some malicious intruder will try to fill your network bandwidth with a lot of PING request data packet, to make your internet connection become very slow Check this box and BR-6479Gn will ignore all inbound 55 Port Scan Sync Flood PING requests, but when you activate this function, you will not be able to ping your own router from internet, too. Some malicious intruder will try to use a port scanner to detect how many ports of your Internet IP address are open. Check this box and BR-6479Gn will block all traffics which are trying to scan your Internet IP address. This is another kind of attack, which uses a lot of fake connection request to occupy the memory of your server, and try to make your server become unusable. Check this box and BR-6479Gn will filter this kind of traffic out. 56 Chapter 11: QoS & iQoS 11-1 QoS QoS (Quality of Service) setting is a way to quickly and effectively restrict the use of network bandwidth. Because of limitations of SOHO products hardware and software, QoS can just offer some simple features, but for the demand of home or small office local area network usage, it has greatly improved an effective network bandwidth management. Total Download You can set the limit of total download bandwidth in kbits. To disable download bandwidth limitation, input 0 here. Bandwidth Total Upload Bandwidth You can set the limit of total upload bandwidth in kbits. To Current QoS Table disable upload bandwidth limitation,input 0 here. The current QoS rule table QoS Rule settings Please click Add and you will be prompted to the rule setting page as follow. 57 Input a name for this QoS rule for identification purpose. This name should be unique and not the same with others. Download/Upload bandwidth (guarantee/ max) Set the IP address range that will be affected by this QoS rule( If only one IP address is involved, input the IP address in left field only) Set the Port Range that will activate this QoS rule. If only one port is involved, input a single number here (1 to 65535); if multiple ports are involved, input starting / ending port number in xy format (like 1020). Set the Remote IP Addresses that will trigger this QoS rule (if only one IP address is involved, input the IP address in left field only) Set the Remote Port Range that will activate this QoS. If youre creating a QoS rule for a specific type of traffic, you can select it from this menu and you dont have to input port range above. Select the protocol type here (TCP or UDP). Rule name Bandwidth Local IP Address Local Port Range Remote IP Address Remote Port Range Traffic Type Protocol 11-2 iQoS Different from the aforementioned QoS function, iQoS is a quicker, easier, and more effective way to manage Internet bandwidth. This is because iQoS can set specific packet transmission priority based on different applications, just like the lane diversion with no interference. To online game players or those who have special requirements for audio and video transmission, iQoS bandwidth management is a very helpful tool for them. What you need to be noted is that iQoS cannot be run with the QoS at the same time. You can only choose either iQoS or Qos. if QoS is enabled, then the iQoS function will automatically disable ,but instead, if you enable iQos, the QoS function will automatically disable. 58 Double click the big icon to remove from table Double click the small icon Double click the small icon Enabling iQoS, not only you can set up the download and upload bandwidth; but also you can set priorities for the following five network applications. The priority table starts from left to right as high to low and the factory default applications priorities are Network browsing/P2P/FTP/Multimedia transmission/Online game. You can rearrange it as you wish. As long as you double click any of the large icons, you can remove the application from the priority table and the next icon will move left. On the contrary, when you double click the selected small icons on below, it will move to the priority table to fill up the vacancies. (Note: The priority table must be filled up with applications, no vacancy is allowed) Browsing Internet P2P/ BT Download FTP Multimedia Transmission Online Game 59 Chapter 12: Status Here in this page, you can see the system status/ system log and security log. 60 Appendix Troubleshooting If you found that the router is working improperly or stops responding, please dont panic! Before you contact your dealer of purchase for help, please read this troubleshooting first. Some problems can be solved by you in minutes. Scenario Router is not responding to me when I want to access it by web browser Solution a. Please check the connection of power cord and network cable of this router. All cords and cables should be correctly and firmly inserted to the router. b. If all LEDs on this router are off, please check the status of A/C power adapter, and make sure its correctly powered. c. You must use the same IP address section which router uses. d. Are you using MAC or IP address filter? Try to connect the router by another computer and see if it works; if not, please restore your router to factory default settings (pressing reset button for over 10 seconds). e. Set your computer to obtain an IP address automatically
(DHCP), and see if your computer can get an IP address. If you did a firmware upgrade and this happens, contact your dealer of purchase for help. f. g. If all above solutions dont work, contact the dealer of purchase for help. Cant get connected to Internet a. Go to Status -> Internet Connection menu, and check Internet connection status. b. Please be patient, sometime Internet is just that slow. c. If you connect a computer to Internet directly before, try to do that again, and check if you can get connected to Internet with your computer directly attached to the device provided by your Internet service provider. d. Check PPPoE / L2TP / PPTP user ID and password again. e. Call your Internet service provider and check if theres f. something wrong with their service. If you just cant connect to one or more website, but you can still use other internet services, please check URL/Keyword filter. g. Try to reset the router and try again later. h. Reset the device provided by your Internet service provider 61 I cant locate my router by my wireless client File download is very slow or breaks frequently too. i. Try to use IP address instead of hostname. If you can use IP address to communicate with a remote server, but cant use hostname, please check DNS setting. a. Broadcast ESSID set to off?
b. All two antennas are properly secured. c. Are you too far from your router? Try to get closer. d. Please remember that you have to input ESSID on your wireless client manually, if ESSID broadcast is disabled. a. Are you using QoS function? Try to disable it and try again. b. Internet is slow sometimes, being patient. c. Try to reset the router and see if its better after that. d. Try to know what computers do on your local network. If someones transferring big files, other people will think Internet is really slow. e. If this never happens before, call you Internet service provider to know if there is something wrong with their network. I cant log onto web management interface: password is wrong Router become hot a. Make sure youre connecting to the correct IP address of the router!
b. Password is case-sensitive. Make sure the Caps Lock light is not illuminated. c. If you really forget the password, do a hard reset. a. This is not a malfunction, if you can keep your hand on the routers case. b. If you smell something wrong or see the smoke coming out from router or A/C power adapter, please disconnect the router and A/C power adapter from utility power (make sure its safe before youre doing this!), and call your dealer of purchase for help. a. Adjust the internal clock of router. The date and time of all event logs are wrong 62 Glossary Default Gateway (Router): Every non-router IP device needs to configure a default gateways IP address. When the device sends out an IP packet, if the destination is not on the same network, the device has to send the packet to its default gateway, which will then send it out towards the destination. DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol automatically gives every computer on your home network an IP address. DNS Server IP Address: DNS stands for Domain Name System, which allows Internet servers to have a domain name (such as www.Portablerouter.com) and one or more IP addresses (such as 192.34.45.8). A DNS server keeps a database of Internet servers and their respective domain names and IP addresses, so that when a domain name is requested (as in typing
"Portablerouter.com" into your Internet browser), the user is sent to the proper IP address. The DNS server IP address used by the computers on your home network is the location of the DNS server your ISP has assigned to you. DSL Modem: DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. A DSL modem uses your existing phone lines to transmit data at high speeds. Ethernet: A standard for computer networks. Ethernet networks are connected by special cables and hubs, and move data around at up to 10/100 million bits per second (Mbps). Idle Timeout: Idle Timeout is designed so that after there is no traffic to the Internet for a pre-configured amount of time, the connection will automatically be disconnected. IP Address and Network (Subnet) Mask: IP stands for Internet Protocol. An IP address consists of a series of four numbers separated by periods, which identifies a single, unique Internet computer host in an IP network. Example: 192.168.2.1. It consists of 2 portions: the IP network address, and the host identifier. The IP address is a 32-bit binary pattern, which can be represented as four cascaded decimal numbers separated by .: aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa, where each aaa can be anything from 000 to 255, or as four cascaded binary numbers separated by .: bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb, where each b can either be 0 or 1. A network mask is also a 32-bit binary pattern, and consists of consecutive leading 1s followed by consecutive trailing 0s, such as 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000. Therefore sometimes a network mask can also be described simply as x number of leading 1s. When both are represented side by side in their binary forms, all bits in the IP address that correspond to 1s in the network mask become part of the IP network address, and the remaining 63 bits correspond to the host ID. For example, if the IP address for a device is, in its binary form, 11011001.10110000.10010000.00000111, and if its network mask is, 11111111.11111111.11110000.00000000 It means the devices network address is 11011001.10110000.10010000.00000000, and its host ID is, 00000000.00000000.00000000.00000111 to route IP packets to their destination. This is a convenient and efficient method for routers ISP Gateway Address: (see ISP for definition). The ISP Gateway Address is an IP address for the Internet router located at the ISP's office. ISP: Internet Service Provider. An ISP is a business that provides connectivity to the Internet for individuals and other businesses or organizations. LAN: Local Area Network. A LAN is a group of computers and devices connected together in a relatively small area (such as a house or an office). Your home network is considered a LAN. MAC Address: MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address is the hardware address of a device connected to a network. The MAC address is a unique identifier for a device with an Ethernet interface. It is comprised of two parts: 3 bytes of data that corresponds to the Manufacturer ID (unique for each manufacturer), plus 3 bytes that are often used as the products serial number. NAT: Network Address Translation. This process allows all of the computers on your home network to use one IP address. Using the portable routers NAT capability, you can access the Internet from any computer on your home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP. Port: Network Clients (LAN PC) uses port numbers to distinguish one network application/protocol over another. Below is a list of common applications and protocol/port numbers:
Application Telnet FTP SMTP POP3 H.323 SNMP SNMP Trap HTTP Protocol TCP TCP TCP TCP TCP UCP UDP TCP Port Number 23 21 25 110 1720 161 162 80 64 TCP TCP UDP 1723 5631 5632 PPTP PC Anywhere PC Anywhere PPPoE: Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. Point-to-Point Protocol is a secure data transmission method originally created for dial-up connections; PPPoE is for Ethernet connections. PPPoE relies on two widely accepted standards, Ethernet and the Point-to-Point Protocol. It is a communications protocol for transmitting information over Ethernet between different manufacturers Protocol: A protocol is a set of rules for interaction agreed upon between multiple parties so that when they interface with each other based on such a protocol, the interpretation of their behavior is well defined and can be made objectively, without confusion or misunderstanding. Router: A router is an intelligent network device that forwards packets between different networks based on network layer address information such as IP addresses. Subnet Mask: A subnet mask, which may be a part of the TCP/IP information provided by your ISP, is a set of four numbers (e.g. 255.255.255.0) configured like an IP address. It is used to create IP address numbers used only within a particular network (as opposed to valid IP address numbers recognized by the Internet, which must be assigned by InterNIC). TCP/IP, UDP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and Unreliable Datagram Protocol (UDP). TCP/IP is the standard protocol for data transmission over the Internet. Both TCP and UDP are transport layer protocol. TCP performs proper error detection and error recovery, and thus is reliable. UDP on the other hand is not reliable. They both run on top of the IP (Internet Protocol), a network layer protocol. WAN: Wide Area Network. A network that connects computers located in geographically separate areas (e.g. different buildings, cities, countries). The Internet is a wide area network. Web-based management Graphical User Interface (GUI): Many devices support a graphical user interface that is based on the web browser. This means the user can use the familiar Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer to Control/configure or monitor the device being managed. 65
