‘~~~MAC Clone Help

If your ISP provides cable modem, please only proceed the router configuration on wired connection with your main
computer, which can have the Internet access when directly connected to the ISP's modem.

Why do I need this "MAC Clone"?

Some ISPs will register the MAC address of your computer when you access the Internet for the first time via the
cable/ADSL modem they offered. If you add a router into your network to share the Internet, the ISP may not
recognize the new MAC address of the router and will not offer the Internet connection any more. So it is necessary
to clone the MAC address of the computer to the router.

Click the Next button to continue, or the Back button to return to the previous page.

http://192.168.0.1

~~~Troubleshooting Help
The router fails to detect your internet connection type, the following are the most likely reasons:

1. The hardware connection is wrong or the modem is not ready.

To solve this problem, please double-check the Internet port (blue port) is fully inserted with the Ethernet
cable from the modem or your ISP (Internet Service Provider)'s device. Reboot your modem, wait for 2
minutes then select the first option and proceed.
2. Your Internet connection type is Dynamic IP but the router needs to clone the MAC address of the original
computer. 
To solve this problem, please select the second option below and proceed.
3. Your ISP (Internet Service Provider) assigns a fixed (static) IP Address to you.
The router can not automatically detect such a rare network type, you need to enter the parameters
manually.

automatically search your Internet connection for servers and protocols. The connection type will be reported when
an active Internet service is successfully detected by the Router. This report is for your reference only. To make sure
the connection type your ISP provides, please refer to the ISP. The various types of Internet connections that the
Router can detect are as follows:

 PPPoE/Russia PPPoE - Connections which use PPPoE that requires a user name and password.
 Dynamic IP - Connections which use dynamic IP address assignment.
 Static IP - Connections which use static IP address assignment.

IP Address - The IP address assigned by your ISP dynamically.

Subnet Mask - The subnet mask assigned by your ISP dynamically.

Default Gateway - The default gateway assigned dynamically by your ISP.

http://192.168.0.1

Click the Renew button to renew the IP parameters from your ISP.

Click the Release button to release the IP parameters from your ISP.

MTU Size (in bytes) - The normal MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) value for most Ethernet networks is 1500
Bytes. For some ISPs you need to modify the MTU. But this is rarely required, and should not be done unless you are
sure it is necessary for your ISP connection.

If your ISP gives you one or two DNS IP addresses, select Use These DNS Servers and enter the Primary
DNS and Secondary DNS into the correct fields. Otherwise, the DNS servers will be assigned from ISP dynamically.

Primary DNS - Enter the DNS IP address in dotted-decimal notation provided by your ISP.

Secondary DNS - Enter another DNS IP address in dotted-decimal notation provided by your ISP.

Note: If you get Address not found error when you access a Web site, it is likely that your DNS servers are set up
improperly. You should contact your ISP to get DNS server addresses.

Host Name - This option specifies the Host Name of the Router.

Get IP with Unicast DHCP - A few ISPs' DHCP servers do not support the broadcast applications. If you can't get
the IP Address normally, you can choose Unicast. (You generally need not to check this option).

Click the Save button to save your settings.

Note: The router has the LAN-WAN conflict detection mechanism. The main performances are illustrated below:

1. When the IP address which the WAN port of the router obtains is in the same network segment with the LAN port,
the IP address of the router's LAN port will automatically change to a different network segment. For example, the
default IP address of LAN port is 192.168.1.1. If the router's WAN port obtains an IP address as 192.168.1.X, the IP
address of LAN port will automatically change to 192.168.0.1.

2. If the IP address of the router's LAN port has changed, the router will reset automatically. And the original
configurations of the virtual server and DMZ hosting will be lost.

3. Users can still login and view the management pages of the router via the logon domain name.

4. To ensure that the client connected to the router can access the Internet normally, it is recommended that the
client is configured to "obtain a dynamic IP address". If the client selects "configure the IP address manually", please
change the client's IP address and gateway IP address, according to the altered IP address of the LAN port.

Port Triggering Help

Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephoning and so
on. Port Triggering is used for some of these applications that cannot work with a pure NAT Router.

Once configured, operation is as follows:

1. A local host makes an outgoing connection to an external host using a destination port number defined in
the Trigger Portfield.
2. The Router records this connection, opens the incoming port or ports associated with this entry in the Port
Triggering table, and associates them with the local host.
3. When necessary, the external host will be able to connect to the local host using one of the ports defined in
the Incoming Ports field.
http://192.168.0.1

Rules:

 Trigger Port - The port for outgoing traffic. An outgoing connection using this port will trigger this rule.
 Trigger Protocol - The protocol used for Trigger Ports, either TCP, UDP, or All (all protocols supported by
the Router).
 Incoming Port - The port or port range used by the remote system when it responds to the outgoing
request. A response using one of these ports will be forwarded to the PC which triggered this rule. You can
input at most 5 groups of ports (or port sections). Every group of ports must be separated with ",", for
example, 2000-2038, 2046, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.
 Incoming Protocol - The protocol used for Incoming Port, either TCP, UDP, or All (all protocols supported
by the Router).
 Status - The status of this entry, Enabled means the Port Triggering entry is enabled.
 Modify - To modify or delete an existing entry.
 Common Applications - Some popular applications already listed in the pull-down list of Incoming Protocol.

To add a new rule, please do the following on the Port Triggering screen:

1. Click the Add New... button.

2. Enter a port number used by the application to send an outgoing request in the Trigger Port box.
3. Select the protocol used for the Trigger Port from the pull-down list of Trigger Protocol, either TCP, UDP,
or All.
4. Enter the range of port numbers used by the remote system when it responds to the PC's request in the
Incoming Ports box.
5. Select the protocol used for Incoming Ports range from the pull-down list, either TCP, UDP, or All.
6. Select the Enabled option in the Status pull-down list.
7. Click the Save button to save the new rule.

There are many popular applications in the Common Applications list. You can select an application and then the
boxes of Trigger Port and Incoming Ports will be automatically filled in. This has the same effect as adding a new
rule.

To modify or delete an existing entry:

1. Find the desired entry in the table.

2. Click Modify or Delete as desired on the Modify column.

Click the Enable All button to enable all entries.

Click the Disable All button to disable all entries.

Diagnostic Tools Help

The diagnostic tools (Ping and Traceroute) allow you to check the connections of your network components.
http://192.168.0.1

Diagnostic Tool - Click the radio button to select one diagnostic tool:

 Ping - This diagnostic tool troubleshoots connectivity, reachability, and name resolution to a given host or
gateway by using the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) protocol's mandatory Echo Request
datagram to elicit an ICMP Echo Response from a host or gateway. You can use ping to test both numeric
IP address or domain name. If pinging the IP address is successful, but pinging the domain name is not, you
might have a name resolution problem. In this case, ensure that the domain name you are specifying can be
resolved by using Domain Name System (DNS) queries.
 Traceroute - This diagnostic tool determines the path taken to a given host by sending Internet Control
Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Request messages with varying Time to Live (TTL) values to the
destination. Each gateway along the path is required to decrement the TTL in an IP packet by at least 1
before forwarding it. Effectively, the TTL is a maximum link counter. When the TTL on a packet reaches 0,
the gateway is expected to return an ICMP Time Exceeded response to your device. Traceroute determines
the path by sending the first Echo Request message with a TTL of 1 and incrementing the TTL by 1 on each
subsequent transmission until the target responds or the maximum number of hops is reached. The
maximum number of hops is 20 by default and can be specified in the field "Traceroute Max TTL". The path
is determined by examining the ICMP Time Exceeded messages returned by intermediate gateways and the
Echo Reply message returned by the destination. However, some gateways do not return Time Exceeded
messages for packets with expired TTL values and are invisible to the traceroute tool. In this case, a row of
asterisks (*) is displayed for that hop.

IP Address/ Domain Name - Enter the IP Address or Domain Name of the PC whose connection you wish to
diagnose.

Ping Count - Specifies the number of Echo Request messages sent. The default is 4.

Ping Packet Size - Specifies the number of data bytes to be sent. The default is 64.

Ping Timeout - Time to wait for a response, in milliseconds. The default is 800.

Traceroute Max TTL - Set the maximum number of hops (max TTL to be reached) in the path to search for the target
(destination). The default is 20.

Click the Start button to start the diagnostic procedure.

Note:

1. Only one user can use the diagnostic tools at one time.
2. "Ping Count", "Ping Packet Size" and "Ping Timeout" are Ping Parameters, and "Traceroute Max TTL" is
Traceroute Parameter.
