However, it also brings about the problem that external host cannot initiatively communicate with the specified device in the local network. With forwarding feature the modem router can penetrate the isolation of NAT and allows the external hosts in the Internet to initiatively communicate with the devices in the local network, thus to realize some special functions. TP-LINK modem router includes four forwarding rules. If two or more rules are set, the priority of implementation from high to low is Virtual Servers, Port Triggering, UPNP and DMZ. This chapter contains the following sections:
Share Local Resources in the Internet by Virtual Server Open Ports Dynamically by Port Triggering Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by UPnP Chapter 11 NAT Forwarding 11 1 Share Local Resources in the Internet by Virtual Server When you build up a server in the local network and want to share it on the Internet, Virtual Server can realize the service and provide it to the Internet users. At the same time virtual server can keep the local network safe as other services are still invisible from the Internet. Virtual server can be used for setting up public services in your local network, such as HTTP, FTP, DNS, POP3/SMTP and Telnet. Different service uses different service port. Port 80 is used in HTTP service, port 21 in FTP service, port 25 in SMTP service and port 110 in POP3 service. Please verify the service port number before the configuration. I want to:
How can I do that?
share my personal website Ive built in local network with my friends through the Internet. For example, the personal website has been built in my home PC

The external port, internal port and protocol will be automatically filled with contents. Enter the PCs IP address 192.168.1.100 in the Internal IP field. 5 Click OK to save the settings. Tips:
1. It is recommended to keep the default settings of Internal Port and Protocol if you are not clear about which port and protocol to use. 2. If the service you want to use is not in the Service Type, you can enter the corresponding parameters manually. You should verify the port number that the service needs. 3. You can add multiple virtual server rules if you want to provide several services in a modem router. Please note that the External Port cannot be overlapped. Users in the Internet can enter http:// WAN IP (in this example:
http:// 218.18.232.154) to visit your personal website. Tips:
1. WAN IP should be a public IP address. For the WAN IP is assigned dynamically by ISP, it is recommended to apply and register a domain name for the WAN by DDNS, go to Set Up a Dynamic DNS Service Account for more information. Then you can use http:// domain name to visit the website. 2. If you have changed the default External Port, you should use http:// WAN IP:
External Port or http:// domain name: External Port to visit the website. Done!
11 2 Open Ports Dynamically by Port Triggering Port triggering can specify a triggering port and its corresponding external ports. When a host in the local network initiates a connection to the triggering port, all the external ports will be opened for subsequent connections. The modem router can record the IP address of the host. When the data from the Internet return to the external ports, the 59 Chapter 11 NAT Forwarding modem router can forward them to the corresponding host. Port triggering is mainly applied to online games, VoIPs and video players. Common applications include MSN Gaming Zone, Dialpad and Quick Time 4 players, etc. Follow the steps below to configure the port triggering rules:
1 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the modem router. 2 Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > Port Triggering and click Add. 3 Click View Existing Applications, and select the desired application. The triggering port and protocol, the external port and protocol will be automatically filled with contents. Here we take application MSN Gaming Zone as an example. 4 Click OK to save the settings. Tips:
1. You can add multiple port triggering rules according to your network need. 2. If the application you need is not listed in the Existing Applications list, please enter the parameters manually. You should verify the external ports the application uses first and enter them into External Port field according to the format the page displays. 11 3 Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ When a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host in the local network, it is totally exposed to the Internet, which can realize the unlimited bidirectional communication between internal hosts and external hosts. The DMZ host becomes a virtual server with 60 Chapter 11 NAT Forwarding all ports opened. When you are not clear about which ports to open in some special applications, like IP camera and database software, you can set the PC to be a DMZ host. Note:
DMZ is more applicable in the situation that users are not clear about which ports to open. When it is enabled, the DMZ host is totally exposed to the Internet, which may bring some potential safety hazard. If DMZ is not in use, please disable it in time. I want to:
How can I do that?
make the home PC join the Internet online game without port restriction. For example, due to some port restriction, when playing the online games, you can log in but cannot join a team with other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ with all ports opened. 1 Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example 192.168.1.100. 2 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the modem router. 3 Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > DMZ and select the checkbox to enable DMZ. 4 Enter the IP address 192.168.1.100 in the DMZ Host IP Address filed. 5 Click Save to save the settings. The configuration is completed. Youve set your PC to a DMZ host and now you can make a team to game with other players. Done!
11 4 Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by UPnP UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows the applications or host devices to automatically find the front-end NAT device and send request to it to open the corresponding ports. With UPnP enabled, the applications or host devices in the both sides of NAT device can freely communicate with each other realizing the seamless connection of the network. You may need to enable the UPnP if you want 61 Chapter 11 NAT Forwarding to use applications for multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real-time communication (such as VoIP or telephone conference) or remote assistance, etc. Tips:
1. UPnP is enabled by default in this modem router. 2. Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature. 3. UPnP feature needs the support of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista/ Windows 7/ Windows 8, etc. Some of operating system need to install the UPnP components). For example, When you connect your Xbox to the modem router which has connected to the Internet to play online games, UPnP will send request to the modem router to open the corresponding ports allowing the following data penetrating the NAT to transmit. Therefore, you can play Xbox online games without a hitch. LAN WAN Xbox Modem Router If necessary, you can follow the steps to change the status of UPnP. 1 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the modem router;
2 Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > UPnP and toggle on or off according to your needs. 62 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings This chapter introduces how to change the default settings or adjust the basic configuration of the modem router using the web-based management page.

The Address Lease Time is the amount of time in which a DHCP client can lease its current dynamic IP address assigned by the modem router. After the dynamic IP address expires, the user will be automatically assigned a new dynamic IP address. The default is 1440 minutes. 6 Keep the rest of the settings as default and click Save to make your settings effective. Note:
1. The modem router can be configured to work as a DHCP Relay. A DHCP relay is a computer that forwards DHCP data between computers that request IP addresses and the DHCP server that assigns the addresses. Each of the devices interfaces can be configured as a DHCP relay. If it is enabled, the DHCP requests from local PCs will be forwarded to the DHCP server that runs on WAN side. 2. You can also appoint IP addresses within a specified range to devices of the same type by using Condition Pool feature. For example, you can assign IP addresses within the range (192.168.1.50 to192.168.1.80) to Camera devices, thus facilitating the network management. Enable DHCP feature and configure the parameters according to your actual situation on Advanced > Network > LAN Settings page. 12 1 3 Reserve LAN IP Addresses You can view and add a reserved address for a client.

Refer to Appendix B: Troubleshooting for detailed instructions. 73 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings 12 3 Set Up a Dynamic DNS Service Account Most ISPs (Internet service providers) assign a dynamic IP address to the router and you can use this IP address to access your router remotely. However, the IP address can change any time and you dont know when it changes. In this case, you might need the DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) feature on the router to allow you and your friends to access your router and local servers (FTP, HTTP, etc.) using domain name, in no need of checking and remembering the IP address. Note: DDNS does not work if the ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.1.x) to the modem router. To set up DDNS, please follow the instructions below:
1 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the modem router. 2 Go to Advanced > Network> Dynamic DNS. 3 Select the DDNS service provider (Dyndns or NO-IP). If you dont have a DDNS account, select a service provider and click Go to register. 4 Enter the username, password and domain name of the account (such as lisa.ddns. net). 5 Click Login and Save. Tips: If you want to use a new DDNS account, please Logout first, then login with the new account. 12 4 Interface Grouping I want to:
Divide my devices connected to the modem router into different groups and disallow devices cross-group communication. For example, in my house, devices connected to LAN1 and LAN3 are for work, while others for entertainment. I want to isolate working devices from others while keep all devices access to the Internet. 74 Chapter 12 How can I do that?
Specify Your Network Settings 1 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the modem router. 2 Go to Advanced > Network > Interface Grouping to open the configuration page where some interfaces can be grouped together. 3 Click to Add a new group. 4 Name the group. 5 Check the boxes of LAN1 and LAN3 in Available LAN. Here Wi-Fi 2.4G network and Wi-Fi 5G network are viewed as a LAN interface respectively. 6 Click Enable Group Isolation to isolate working devices and disallow other devices from communicating with them. 7 Click OK to save the settings. 75 Chapter 12 Done!
Specify Your Network Settings Now your working devices connected to LAN1 and LAN3 are in an isolated group!
Note: VLAN function is enabled by default. You cannot disable it when IPTV is enabled. 12 5 Create Static Routes A static route is a pre-determined path that network information must travel to reach a specific host or network. Data from one point to another will always follow the same path regardless of other considerations. Normal Internet usage does not require this setting to be configured. I want to:
Visit multiple networks and multiple servers at the same time. For example, in a small office, my PC can surf the Internet, but I also want to visit my companys server. Now I have a switch and another router. I connect the devices as shown in the following figure so that the physical connection between my PC and my companys server is achieved. To surf the Internet and visit my companys network at the same time, I need to configure the static routing. Modem router Router 2 Companys server LAN: 192.168.0.1 LAN: 192.168.0.2 172.30.30.1 WAN: 172.30.30.100 Switch 192.168.0.100 My PC How can I do that?
1 Make sure the routers use different LAN IP addresses on the same subnet. Disable Router 2s DHCP function. 2 Visit http://192.168.1.1, and log in with the password you set for the modem router. 3 Go to Advanced > Network > Advanced Routing. Select your current WAN Interface and click Save. 76 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings 4 Click Add to add a new static routing entry. Finish the settings according to the following explanations:
Destination IP: The destination IP address that you want to assign to a static route. This IP address cannot be on the same subnet with the WAN IP or LAN IP of the router. In the example, the IP address of the company network is the destination IP address, so here enters 172.30.30.1. Subnet Mask: Determines the destination network with the destination IP address. If the destination is a single IP address, enter 255.255.255.255; otherwise, enter the subnet mask of the corresponding network IP. In the example, the destination network is a single IP, so here enters 255.255.255.255. Gateway: The IP address of the gateway device to which the data packets will be sent. This IP address must be on the same subnet with the routers IP which sends out the data. In the example, the data packets will be sent to the LAN port of 77 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings Router 2 and then to the Server, so the default gateway should be 192.168.1.2. Interface: Determined by the port (WAN/LAN) that sends out the data packets. In the example, the data is sent to the gateway through the LAN port, so LAN should be selected. 5 Check to enable this entry and click OK to save the settings. Open a web browser on your PC. Enter the company servers IP address to visit the company network. Done!
12 6 Set up a VPN Connection VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a private network established across the public network, generally via the Internet. However, the private network is a logical network without any physical network lines, so it is called Virtual Private Network. With the wide application of the Internet, more and more data are needed to be shared through the Internet. Connecting the local network to the Internet directly, though can allow the data exchange, will cause the private data to be exposed to all the users on the Internet. The VPN (Virtual Private Network) technology is developed and used to establish the private network through the public network, which can provides a secure communication to a remote computer or remote network, and guarantee a secured data exchange. IPSec is one of the major implementations of VPNs. I want to:
Establish an IPSec VPN tunnel to connect two LANs via Internet so that the hosts in different remote LANs are able to communicate with each as if they are in the same LAN. For example, I am the network administrator of a regional office, I need to let my office staff can visit the headquarters servers and resources, and vice versa. I know that the modem router in my office and the device in headquarter both support IPSec VPN feature, so I decide to set up a VPN connection with the headquarter office. The following diagram is a typical VPN topology. Here Site A refers to regional offices network (local network). And Site B refers to the headquarters network (remote network) which I want to connect. 78 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings Site A Site B WAN: 219.134.112.246 WAN: 219.134.112.247 Modem router 1 Modem router 2 LAN: 192.168.1.1 Subnetmask: 255.255.255.0 LAN: 192.168.2.1 Subnetmask: 255.255.255.0 PC 1 PC 2 How can I do that?
1 Make sure of the topology you want to build and record site A (local network) and site B (remote network)s LAN IP and WAN IP. 2 Configuration on site A (local network). 1 ) Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the modem router. 2 ) Go to Advanced > Network > IPSec VPN to open the configuration page. Click Add to set up a VPN tunnel. 79 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings 3 ) In the IPSec Connection Name column, specify a name. 4 ) In the Remote IPSec Gateway (URL) column, Enter Site Bs WAN IP address. 5 ) To configure Site As LAN:
In the Tunnel access from local IP addresses column, here we take Subnet Address as an example. Then input the LAN IP range of Site A in the IP Address for VPN column, and input Subnet Mask of Site A. 6 ) To configure Site Bs LAN:
In the Tunnel access from local IP addresses column, here we take Subnet Address as an example. Then input the LAN IP range of Site B in the IP Address for VPN column, and input Subnet Mask of Site B. 7 ) Select the Key Exchange Method for the policy. We select Auto(IKE) here. 80 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings 8 ) Enter the Pre-Shared Key for IKE authentication. Then keep Perfect Forward Secrecy enabled. Note:
The key should consist of visible characters without blank space. Make sure Site A and Site B use the same key. 9 ) Leave the Advanced Settings as default value. Then click OK to save. 3 Configuration on Site B (remote network). Refer to step 2 configuration on Site A and make sure that Site A and Site B use the same pre-shared keys and Perfect Forward Secrecy settings. 4 The Status column will change to UP if the VPN connection has been set up successfully. 5 Check the VPN connection. You can ping site B LAN IP from your computer in site A to verify that the IPSec VPN connection is set up correctly. Tips: To check the VPN connection, you can do the following. On the host in Site A, press [Windows Logo] + [R] to open Run dialog. Input cmd and hit OK. In the CLI window, type in ping 192.168.2.x (192.168.2.x can be IP address of any host in Site B). Then press [Enter]. 81 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings If Ping proceeds successfully (gets replies from host in Site B), the IPSec connection is working properly now. Now IPSec VPN is implemented to establish a connection. Done!
Note:
1. The product supports a maximum of ten simultaneous connections. 2. If one of the site has been off line for a while, for example, if Site A has been disconnected, on Site B you need to click Disable and then click Enable after Site A back on line in order to re-establish the IPSec tunnel. 12 7 Set Up the IPv6 Tunnel The IPv6 Tunnel feature helps you obtain IPv6 resources based on an IPv4 WAN connection or vice versa. IPv6 Tunnel is a transition mechanism that enables IPv6-only hosts to reach IPv4 services or vice versa and allows isolated IPv6 hosts and networks to reach each other over IPv4-only infrastructure before IPv6 completely supplants IPv4. It is a temporary solution for networks that do not support native dual-stack, where both IPv6 and IPv4 run independently. The modem router provides three tunneling mechanisms: 6to4, 6rd and DS-Lite. The way to set up 6rd and DS-Lite tunnel are similar. 12 7 1 Use the Public IPv6 Tunnel Service-6to4 The 6to4 tunnel is a kind of public service. If there is any 6to4 server in your network, you can use this mechanism to access IPv6 service. If your ISP provides you with an IPv4-only connection but you want to visit IPv6 websites, you can try to set up a 6to4 tunnel. 82 Chapter 12 I want to:
How can I do that?
Specify Your Network Settings Set up the IPv6 tunnel though my ISP doesnt provide me with the tunnel service. 1 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the modem router. 2 Go to Advanced > Network > IPv6 Tunnel. 3 Tick the check box, select 6to4 as the tunneling mechanism and select a WAN connection from the drop-down list, then click Save. Note:
If there is no available WAN connection to choose, make sure you have connected to the Internet and the connection type is not Bridge. Now you can visit the IPv6 websites with the 6to4 tunnel. Done!
Note:
Still not being able to access IPv6 resources means that not any 6to4 public server was found in your network. You can contact your ISP to sign up for IPv6 connection service. 12 7 2 Specify the 6rd Tunnel with Parameters Provided by Your ISP I want to:
How can I How can I do that?
do that?
Specify the 6rd tunnel with the parameters provided by my 6rd tunnel service provider. 1 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password you set for the modem router. 2 Go to Advanced > Network > IPv6 Tunnel. 3 Tick the check box, select 6rd as the tunneling mechanism and select a WAN connection from the drop-down list. 4 According to the parameters provided by your ISP, choose Auto or Manual. More parameters are needed if you choose Manual. 5 Click Save. 83 Chapter 12 Specify Your Network Settings Note:
If there is no available WAN connection to choose, make sure you have connected to the Internet and the connection type is not Bridge. Now you can visit the IPv6 websites with the 6rd tunnel. Done!
Tips:
The way to set up DS-Lite tunnel is similar to that of 6rd tunnel. If you are provided with an IPv6-only WAN connection and have signed up for DS-Lite tunnel service, specify the DS-Lite tunnel by referring to the steps above. 84 Chapter 13 Administrate Your Network This chapter introduces how to change the system settings and administrate your modem routers network.

T6 How to use the modem router as a regular wireless router to share my Internet ?
The modem router supports two operation modes, DSL Modem Router Mode and Wireless Router mode. If you already have a modem or your Internet comes via an Ethernet cable from the wall, you can set up the modem router as a regular wireless router to share the Internet. 1 Connect your modem routers LAN4/WAN port to the modem or the network port. 101 2 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with password you set for the modem router. 3 Go to Advanced > Operation Mode page. 4 Select the Wireless Router Mode option and click Save to make the settings effective. Note: IPTV function is not supported in Wireless Router Mode. T7 How to use the WDS Bridging function to extend my wireless network?
My house covers a large area. The wireless network coverage of the router Im using
(the root router) is limited. I want to use an extended router to extend the wireless network of the primary router. Follow the steps to configure the modem router. 1 Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with password you set for the modem router. 2 Configure the LAN IP address of the modem router in the same subnet as the root router. For example, the IP address of the root router is 192.168.1.1, the IP address of the extended router should be from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254.). 3 Go to Advanced > Wireless >Advanced Settings page and select the wireless network 5GHz. Locate the WDS (5GHz) section and select the checkbox to enable the WDS Bridging function. 4 Click Survey to scan all the AP devices and choose the root AP to be bridged. 102 5 Click the connect icon and then the SSID and MAC will be automatically filled in. Configure the Security settings as the AP you choose to be bridged. 6 Click Save to make the settings effective. 7 Go to Advanced > Network > LAN Settings page to disable DHCP. Now, the roots wireless network is extended and you can use the modem routers SSID and password to enjoy the network. Note: The extended router (modem router) can have different SSID and password from the root router, you can change your modem routers SSID and password on Basic > Wireless page. T8 What can I do if I cannot find my wireless network or I cannot connect the wireless network?
If you fail to find any wireless network, please follow the steps below:
1 Make sure the wireless function is enabled if youre using a laptop with built-in wireless adapter. You can refer to the relevant document or contact the laptop manufacturer. 103 2 Make sure the wireless adapter driver is installed successfully and the wireless adapter is enabled. On Windows 7 1 ) If you see the message No connections are available, it is usually because the wireless function is disabled or blocked somehow;
2 ) Clicking on Troubleshoot and windows might be able to fix the problem by itself. On Windows XP 1 ) If you see the message Windows cannot configure this wireless connection, this is usually because windows configuration utility is disabled or you are running another wireless configuration tool to connect the wireless. 2 ) Exit the wireless configuration tool( the TP-LINK Utility, for example);
3 ) Select and right click on My Computer on desktop, select Manage to open Computer Management window;
4 ) Expand Services and Applications > Services, find and locate Wireless Zero Configuration in the Services list on the right side;
104 5 ) Select Wireless Zero Configuration, right click, and then select Properties;
6 ) Change Startup type to Automatic, click on Start button and make sure the Service status is Started. And then click OK. 105 7 ) Connect to wireless network. If you can find other wireless network except your own, please follow the steps below:
1 Check the WLAN LED indicator on your wireless router/modem;
2 Make sure your computer/device is still in the range of your router/modem, move closer if it is currently too far away;
3 Go to Advanced > Wireless > Wireless Settings page to check the wireless router settings. Double check your Wireless Name, and make sure the SSID is not hidden;
4 Connect to wireless network. If you can find your wireless network but fail to connect, please follow the steps below:
1 Authenticating problem, password mismatch. 1 ) Sometimes it will ask you to type in a PIN number when you connect to the wireless network for the first time. This PIN number is different from the Wireless Password/Network Security Key, usually you can only find it on the back of your wireless router/modem;
106 2 ) If you cannot find the PIN or PIN failed, you may choose Connecting using a security key instead, and then type in the Network Security Key/Wireless Password;
3 ) If it continues on saying network security key mismatch, it is suggested to confirm the wireless password on your wireless router/modem;
Note: Wireless password/Network Security Key is case sensitive. 4 ) Connect to wireless network. 2 Windows was unable to connect to XXXX /Cannot join this network/Taking longer than usual to connect to this network. 107 1 ) Check the wireless signal strength of your network, if it is weak (1~3 bars), please move the router closer and try again;
2 ) Change the wireless Channel of the router to 1,6,or 11 to reduce interference from other networks;
3 ) Re-install or update the driver for your wireless adapter of the computer;
4 ) Connect to wireless network. T9 What can I do if I cannot access the USB disk after I modify the Authentication settings?
This situation probably happens on your Windows computer due to its special credential mechanism. Once you successfully access the USB disk, the connection will be temporarily recorded and you will be refused to access the USB disk with another account. You can follow either method below to solve this problem:
Method 1: Log off (sign out) from the Windows to delete the temporary connection record. Method 2: (Only for Local Storage Sharing) Change the Address of the USB Disk by referring to To Customize the Address of the USB Disk. T10 What can I do if I am still required to enter the password for USB access even though I have selected Remember my credentials in my Windows computer?
Because of Windows special credential mechanism, if the USB access username you set is the same as the Windows account name, Windows will be unable to remember the password you set for the USB. To solve this problem, you can set a different USB access username or make the USB access password the same as your Windows account. After you modify the access account, remember to log off (sigh out) from the Windows. T11 Why am I never required to enter the account information for USB access even though I have enabled the Authentication feature?
This situation probably happens on your Windows computer due to its special credential mechanism. If your USB access username and password are both the same as your Windows account, the Windows will automatically use its account information to access the USB disk. Therefore, you will have no need to enter the username and password. 108 COPYRIGHT & TRADEMARKS Specifications are subject to change without notice. is a registered trademark of TP-LINK TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.
