Chapter 1 - Introduction

Introducing the WBR-6600

Thank you for purchasing the WBR-6600 Router. Your new router is an all-in-one unit that combines an ADSL modem, ADSL2/2+ router and Ethernet network switch to provide everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over an ADSL broadband connection.

The WBR-6600 router complies with ADSL2+ standards for deployment worldwide and supports downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. Designed for small office, home office and residential users, the router enables even faster Internet connections. You can enjoy ADSL services and broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio much easier and faster than ever before.

The WBR-6600 supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 – PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516) to establish a connection with your ISP. Your new router also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.

The perfect solution for connecting a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet connection, the WBR-6600 allows multiple users to have high-speed Internet access simultaneously.

Your new router also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from access by outside users. Not only does it provide a natural firewall function with Network Address Translation (NAT), it also provides rich firewall features to secure your network. All incoming data packets are monitored and filtered. You can also configure your new router to block internal users from accessing the Internet.

The WBR-6600 provides two levels of security support. First, it masks LAN IP addresses making them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Second, it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access. To ensure that games and other Internet applications run properly, you can open specific ports for outside users to access internal services on your network.

The Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) client and server services allow multiple users to get IP addresses automatically when the router boots up. Simply set local machines as a DHCP client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from the DHCP server and reboot. Each time a local machine is powered up; the router recognizes it and assigns an IP address to instantly connect it to the LAN.

For advanced users, Virtual Service (port mapping) functions allow the product to provide limited visibility to local machines with specific services for outside users. For instance, a dedicated web server can be connected to the Internet via the router and then incoming requests for web pages that are received by the router can be rerouted to your dedicated local web server, even though the server now has a different IP address.

Virtual Server can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, you can set the router to allow separated FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same Internet-visible IP address while still protecting the servers and LAN users from hackers.

Features

Express Internet Access – ADSL2/2+ capable

The WBR-6600 complies with ADSL worldwide standards. Supporting downstream rates of 8Mbps with ADSL, the router is capable of up to 12/24 Mbps with ADSL2/2+, and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL services but also broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio which are easier and faster than ever. The router is compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2; G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.hs (ITU G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3); and G.dmt.bisplus (ITU G.992.5)

802.11n Wireless AP with WPA Support

With integrated 802.11n Wireless Access Point in the router, the device offers a quick and easy access among wired network, wireless network and broadband connection (ADSL) with single device simplicity, and as a result, mobility to the users. In addition to 300 Mbps 802.11n data rate, it also interoperates backward with existing 802.11g and 802.11b equipment. The Wireless Protected Access (WPA) and Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) supported features enhance the security level of data protection and access control via Wireless LAN.

Fast Ethernet Switch

A 4-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built-in with automatic switching between MDI and MDI-X for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports, with auto detection allowing you to use either straight or cross-over Ethernet cables.

EWAN

Besides using ADSL to get connected to the Internet, WBR-6600 offers its Ethernet port 1 as a WAN port to be used to connect to Cable Modems, VDSL, fiber optic lines and PON. This alternative, yet faster method to connect to the internet will provide users more flexibility to get online.

Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection

The router supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516) to establish a connection with an ISP. The router also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal

This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices and PCs from many different vendors, and it makes setting up a network simple and affordable. UPnP architecture leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable proximity networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices. With this feature enabled, you can seamlessly connect to Net Meeting or MSN Messenger.

Network Address Translation

Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users to access outside resources such as the Internet simultaneously with one IP address/one Internet access account. Many application layer gateways (ALG) are supported such as web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet, E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.

Firewall

NAT technology supports simple firewalls and provides options for blocking access from the Internet, like Telnet, FTP, TFTP, WEB, SNMP and IGMP.

Domain Name Server Relay

Domain Name Server (DNS) relay provides an easy way to map a domain name with a user-friendly name such as www.google.com with an IP address. When a local machine sets its DNS server to the router's IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC to this router is forwarded to the real DNS on the outside network.

Dynamic Domain Name Server (DDNS)

The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. To use the service, you must first apply for an account from a DDNS service such as http://www.dyndns.org/.

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

The WBR-6600 provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a connection. You get greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while sharing the same ISP account and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client software is required for the local computer. Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are also provided.

Quality of Service (QoS)

QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority by the router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or management information move through the router at lightning speed, even under heavy load. The QoS features are configurable by Internal IP address, External IP address, protocol, and port. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass through the router, to ensure P2P users don't saturate upload bandwidth, or office browsing doesn't bring client web serving to a halt. In addition, or alternatively, you can simply change the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds.

Virtual Server:

You can specify which services are visible to outside users. The router detects an incoming service request and forwards it to the specific local computer for handling. For example, you can assign a PC in a LAN to act as a Web server inside and expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse inside the web server directly while it is protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided for local computers exposed to the outside Internet network.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server

On a WAN site, the DHCP client obtains an IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP) automatically. On a LAN site, the DHCP server allocates a range of client IP addresses, including subnet masks and DNS IP addresses and distributes them to local computers. This provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.

Rich Packet Filtering

This feature filters the packet based on IP addresses as well as Port numbers. Filtering packets to and from the Internet provides a higher level of security control.

Web-based GUI

A web-based GUI offers easy configuration and management. It also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and manage this product.

Firmware Upgradeable

You can upgrade the router with the latest firmware through its web-based GUI.

Installation Diagram of the WBR-6600

Chapter 2 - Product Overview

Standards-Based Technology

The WBR-6600 Wireless Router utilizes the 802.11n standard. The IEEE 802.11n standard is an extension of the 802.11g standard. It increases the data rate up to 300 Mbps within the 2.4GHz band, utilizing OFDM technology. This means that in most environments, within the specified range of this device, you will be able to transfer large files quickly or even watch a movie in MPEG format over your network without noticeable delays. This technology works by transmitting high-speed digital data over a radio wave utilizing OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) technology. OFDM works by splitting the radio signal into multiple smaller sub-signals that are then transmitted simultaneously at different frequencies to the receiver. OFDM reduces the amount of crosstalk (interference) in signal transmissions.

Installation Considerations

The WBR-6600 Wireless Router lets you access your network, using a wireless connection, from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass.

Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the WBR-6600 and other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your WBR-6600 wireless product's range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.)

Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. Position the devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception. Building Materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminium studs may have a negative effect on range.

Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate extreme RF (radio frequency) noise.

The detail instruction in Reset Button

Recovery procedures for non-working routers (e.g. after a failed firmware upgrade flash): Hold the Reset Button on the back of the modem in. Keep this button held in and turn on the modem. Once the lights on the modem have stopped flashing, release the Reset Button. The modem's emergency-reflash web interface will then be accessible via http://192.168.0.1 where you can upload a firmware image to restore the modem to a functional state. Please note that the modem will only respond via its web interface at this address, and will not respond to ping requests from your PC or to telnet connections.

Note:

Before powering on the router to enter the recovery process, please configure the IP address of the PC as 192.168.0.100 and proceed with the following step by step guide.

1. Power the router off.
2. Hold the "Reset Button".
3. Power on the router. Then Router's IP will reset to Emergency IP address (Say 192.168.0.1)
4. Flash the firmware.

Antenna Position Placement

To get the best quality wireless reception out of your router, the antennas should be positioned at 45 degree angles, like the following image, to minimize the wireless interference caused between the antennas.

Cabling

One of the most common causes of problems is because of bad cabling or ADSL line(s). Make sure that all connected devices are turned on. On the front of the product is a bank of LEDs. Verify that the LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify that you are using the proper cables.

Ensure that all other devices connected to the same telephone line as your router (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) have a line filter connected between them and the wall socket (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualified and licensed electrician), and to ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and the right way around. Missing line filters or line filters installed being the wrong way around can cause problems with your ADSL connection, which includes frequent disconnections.

Chapter 3 - Installation

You can configure the WBR-6600 router through the convenient and user-friendly interface of a web browser. Most popular operating systems such as Linux, MAC OS and Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/Vista include a web browser as a standard application.

Before Configuration

PCs must have a properly installed Ethernet interface which connects to the router directly or through an external repeater hub. In addition, PCs must have TCP/IP installed and configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must be in the same subnet as the router. The default IP address of the router is 192.168.0.1 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (i.e. any attached PC must be in the same subnet, and have an IP address in the range between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254). The easiest way is to configure the PC is to obtain an IP address automatically from the router using DHCP. If you encounter any problems accessing the router's web interface you are advised to uninstall any kind of software firewall on your PCs, as they can cause problems when trying to access the 192.168.0.1 IP address of the router.

Please follow the steps below for installation on your PC's network environment. First of all, check your PC's network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network adapter must be installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating system manuals.

Time Zone

The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server outside your network. Choose your local time zone, click Enable and click the Apply button. After a successful connection to the Internet, the router retrieves the correct local time from the SNTP server you have specified. If you prefer to specify an SNTP server other than those in the drop-down list, simply enter its IP address as shown above. Your ISP may provide an SNTP server for you to use.

Resync Period (in minutes) is the periodic interval the router waits before it resynchronizes the router's time with that of the specified SNTP server. To avoid unnecessarily increasing the load on your specified SNTP server you should keep the poll interval as high as possible – at the absolute minimum every few hours or even days.

Firmware Upgrade

Your router's "firmware" is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software it runs. Over time this software may be improved and modified. Your router allows you to upgrade the software it runs to take advantage of these changes.

Clicking on Browse allows you to select the new firmware image file you have downloaded to your PC. Once the correct file is selected, click Upgrade to update the firmware in your router.

• Restart Device with: To choose "Factory Default Settings" or "Current Settings" which uses your current setting on the new firmware (it is highly advised to use Factory Default Settings over Current Settings for a clean firmware upgrade).
• New Firmware Image: Type in the location of the file you wish to upload in this field or click Browse... to locate it.
• Browse...: Click Browse... to find the file with the .afw file extension that you wish to upload. Remember that you must decompress compressed (.zip) files before you can upgrade from the file.
• Upgrade: Click upgrade to begin the upload process. This process may take up to three minutes.

Warning:

DO NOT power down the router or interrupt the firmware upgrade while it is still in process. Improper operation may damage the router. Please see section 2.4 for emergency recovery procedures.

Backup / Restore

These functions allow you to save and backup your router's current settings to a file on your PC, or to restore a previously saved backup. This is useful if you wish to experiment with different settings, knowing that you have a backup handy in the case of any mistakes. It is advisable to backup your router's settings before making any significant changes to your router's configuration.

Press Backup to select where on your local PC to save the settings file. You may also change the name of the file when saving if you wish to keep multiple backups.

Press Browse... to select a file from your PC to restore. You should only restore settings files that have been generated by the Backup function, and that were created when using the current version of the router's firmware. Settings files saved to your PC should not be manually edited in any way.

Select the settings files you wish to use, and press Restore to load those settings into the router.

Restart Router

Click Restart with option Current Settings to reboot your router and save the current configuration to device.

If you wish to restart the router using the factory default settings (for example, after a firmware upgrade or if you have saved an incorrect configuration), select Factory Default Settings to reset to factory default settings.

Note: IP Address of the router will revert back to default setting of 192.168.0.1.

User Management

In order to prevent unauthorized access to your router's configuration interface, it requires all users to login with a password. You can set up multiple user accounts, each with their own password.

You are strongly advised to change the password on the default "admin" account when you receive your router, and any time you reset your configuration to Factory Defaults.

• Valid: Check this box to enable this user account.
• User: Username of the user account.
• Password: Password of the user account
• Confirm: Confirm the password of the user account.
• Login Mode: When this account logs in, the Web Interface will be in Basic of Advanced modes.
• Level: To restrict the user account in basic (Normal) or advanced (Super) modes.
• Add: Adds a new user account.
• Edit: Edit existing user account details. You need to click on the account you want to edit.
• Delete: To delete an existing account. Please make sure the tick the delete checkbox.

Mail Alert

Send a log via email, if WAN IP is changed or if intruders accessing your computer without permission.

Server Information

• SMTP Server: Please enter the address of SMTP mail server for your outgoing emails. This is usually obtained from your ISP.
• Username: Username of your SMTP mail server account.
• Password: Password of your SMTP mail server account
• Sender's E-Mail: When the Mail Alert is sent, it will be shown as being sent from this e-mail address will be shown

WAP IP Change Alert

When your router reconnects to the Internet, the ISP may have given it a new WAN IP address. When this event happens, an alert e-mail is sent.

- Recipient's E-mail: The e-mail address where the alert email is sent.

Intrusion Detection

When your router detects a Denial of Service in progress, it will send an alert e-mail.

Intrusion Detection needs to be activated in the Firewall settings.

• Alert Mail Time: The interval that Intrusion Detection alert e-mails are sent.
• Recipient's E-mail: The e-mail address where the alert email is sent.

Firewall

Firewall and Access Control

Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet access from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. In addition to this, when using NAT (Network Address Translation) the router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, since all PCs on your LAN use private IP addresses that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet. See the WAN configuration section for more details on NAT.

Firewall & Filter

Firewall: Prevents access from outside your network.

NAT natural firewall: This masks LAN users' IP addresses, which are invisible to outside users on the Internet, making it much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. This natural firewall is on when the NAT function is enabled.

Note:

When using Virtual Servers (port mapping) your PCs are exposed to the ports specified opened in your firewall packet filter settings.

• Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Inbound direction of Packet Filter rules prevent unauthorized computers or applications accessing your local network from the Internet.
• Intrusion Detection: Enable Intrusion Detection to detect, prevent, and log malicious attacks.
  • MAC Filter rules: Prevents unauthorized computers accessing the Internet.
• URL Filter: Blocks PCs on your local network from unwanted websites.

A detailed explanation of each of the following five items appears in the Firewall section below: Packet Filter, MAC Filter, Intrusion detection, Block WAN PING and URL Filter.

Packet Filter

Packet filtering enables you to configure your router to block specified internal/external users (IP address) from Internet access, or you can disable specific service requests (Port number) to /from Internet. This configuration program allows you to set up to 6 different filter rules for different users based on their IP addresses or their network Port number. The relationship among all filters is “or” operation, which means that the router checks these different filter rules one by one, starting from the first rule. As long as one of the rules is satisfied, the specified action will be taken.

• Rule Name: Users-define description to identify this entry. The maximum name length is 32 characters, and then can choose application that they want from listbox.
• Internal IP Address / External IP Address: This is the Address-Filter used to allow or block traffic to/from particular IP address(es). Input the range you want to filter out. If you leave empty or 0.0.0.0, it means any IP address.
• Protocol: Specify the packet type (TCP, UDP, ICMP, etc.) that the rule applies to.
• Select TCP if you wish to search for the connection-based application service on the remote server using the port number. Or select UDP if you want to search for the connectionless application service on the remote server using the port number.
• Action: If a packet matches this filter rule, Forward (allows the packets to pass) or Drop (disallow the packets to pass) this packet.

• Internal Port: This Port or Port Range defines the ports allowed to be used by the Remote/WAN to connect to the application. Default is set from range 0 \~ 65535. It is recommended that this option be configured by an advanced user.

• External Port: This is the Port or Port Range that defines the application.

• Direction: Determine whether the rule is for outgoing packets or for incoming packets.
• Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section.
• Log: Choose "log" if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to a packet.
• Add: Click this button to add a new packet filter rule and the added rule will appear at the bottom table.
• Edit: Check the Rule No. you wish to edit, and then click "Edit".

Edit	Order	Rule Name	Internal IP Address	Protocol	Internal Port	Direction	Action	Time Schedule	Delete
			External IP Address		External Port
C	↓	FTP	192.168.0.106~192.168.0.106	TCP	21~21	outgoing	drop	Always On	□
			Any		21~21
C	↑	TELNET	192.168.0.110~192.168.0.110	TCP	25~25	outgoing	drop	Always On	□
			Any		23~23
		Default	Any	Any	Any	outgoing	forward	Always On
			Any		Any

- Order: Use the Up and Down arrows to change the order of the entries.

- Delete: First check the Delete tick box of the rule you wish to delete, and then click the "Edit/Delete" button.

Edit	Order	Rule Name	Internal IP Address	Protocol	Internal Port	Direction	Action	Time Schedule	Delete
			External IP Address		External Port
C	↓	FTP	192.168.0.106~192.168.0.106	TCP	21~21	outgoing	drop	Always On
			Any		21~21
C	↑	TELNET	192.168.0.110~192.168.0.110	TCP	25~25	outgoing	drop	Always On
			Any		23~23
		Default	Any	Any	Any	outgoing	forward	Always On
			Any		Any

If the DHCP server option is enabled, you must be very careful in assigning IP addresses of a filtered private IP range to avoid conflicts because you do not know which PC in the LAN is assigned which IP address. The easiest and safest way is that the filtered IP address is assigned to a specific PC that is not allowed to access an outside resource such as the Internet. You configure the filtered IP address manually for this PC, but it stays in the same subnet with the router.

MAC Filter

A MAC (Media Access Control) address is the unique network hardware identifier for each PC on your network's interface (i.e. its Network Interface Card or Ethernet card). Using your router's MAC Address Filter function, you can configure to block specific machines from accessing your LAN.

There are no pre-defined MAC address filter rules; you can add the filter rules to meet your requirements.

• MAC Address: Enter the MAC addresses you wish to filter. You can also use the selection list box on the right if the router has detected this computer.
• Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section

Intrusion Detection

Check Enable if you wish to detect intruders accessing your computer without permission. The router automatically detects and blocks a DoS (Denial of Service) attack.

This kind of attack is not to access confidential data on the network; instead, it aims to disrupt specific equipment functions or the operations of entire network. If this happens, users will have trouble accessing the network resources.

• Intrusion Detection: Check Enable if you wish to detect intruders accessing your computer without permission.
• Maximum TCP Open Handshaking Count: This is a threshold value to decide whether a SYN Flood attempt is occurring or not. Default value is 100 TCP SYN per seconds.
  • Maximum Ping Count: This is a threshold value to decide whether an ICMP Echo Storm is occurring or not. Default value is 15 ICMP Echo Requests (PING) per second.
• Maximum ICMP Count: This is a threshold to decide whether an ICMP flood is occurring or not. Default value is 100 ICMP packets per seconds except ICMP Echo Requests (PING).
• Log: Check Log if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to the Intrusion Detection.

For SYN Flood, ICMP Echo Storm and ICMP flood, IDS will just warn the user in the Event Log but it will not be able to protect against such attacks

Block WAN PING

Check Enable if you wish to exclude outside PING requests from reaching this router.

URL Filter

URL (Uniform Resource Locator – e.g. an address in the form of

http://www.example.com) filter rules allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing particular websites from their URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you can add filter rules to meet your requirements.

Keywords Filtering: Allows blocking by specific keywords within a particular URL rather than having to specify a complete URL (e.g. to block any image called

"advertisement.gif"). When enabled, your specified keywords list is checked to see if any keywords are present in URLs accessed to determine if the connection attempt should be blocked. Note that the URL filter blocks web browser (HTTP) connection attempts using port 80 only.

For example, the URL http://www.abc.com/abcde.html would be dropped since the keyword "abcde" occurs in the URL.

Domains Filtering: Checks the domain name in URLs accessed against your list of domains to block or allow. If it matches, the URL request is sent (Trusted) or dropped (Forbidden). The checking procedure is:

1. Check the domain in the URL to determine if it is in the trusted list. If yes, the connection attempt is sent to the remote web server.
2. If not, it is checked with the forbidden list. If present, the connection attempt is dropped.
3. If the packet matches neither of the above, it is sent to the remote web server.
4. Please be note that the completed URL, "www" + domain name shall be specified. For example to block traffic to www.google.com.au, enter "www.google" or "www.google.com"

• Restrict URL Features: This function enhances the restriction to your URL rules.
• Block Java Applet: Blocks Web content which includes the Java Applet to prevent someone who wants to damage your system via the standard HTTP protocol.
• Block ActiveX: Blocks ActiveX
  • Block Cookies: Blocks Cookies
  • Block Proxy: Blocks Proxy
• Except IP Address: IP Address that is exempt from the Domain Filtering.

- Time Schedule: It is self-defined time period. You may specify a time schedule for your prioritization policy. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section.

- Log: Click "Log" if you wish to generate logs when the filer rule is applied to the URL Filter.

QoS (Quality of Service)

Quality of Service Introduction

If you've ever found your 'net' speed has slowed to a crawl because another family member is using a P2P file sharing program, you'll understand why the Quality of Service features in the routers is such a breakthrough for home users and office users.

QoS: Keeping Your Net Connection Fast and Responsive

Configurable by internal IP address, external IP address, protocol, and port, the Quality of Service (QoS) gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority by the router, ensuring bandwidth-consumption data like gaming packets, latency-sensitive application like voice, or even mission critical files, move through the router at lightning speed, even under heavy load. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass through the router. In addition, you can simply change the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds.

QoS Setup

Please choose the QoS in the Configuration item of the left window as depicted below.

After clicking the QoS item, you can Add/Edit/Delete a QoS policy. This page will show the brief information for policies you have added or edited. This page will also display the total available (Non-assigned) bandwidth, in percentage, can be assigned.

Application: A name that identifies an existing policy.

Direction: The traffic flow direction to be controlled by the QoS policy.

There are two settings to be provided in the Router:

• LAN to WAN: You want to control the traffic flow from the local network to the outside world. e.g., you have a FTP server inside the local network and you want to have a limited traffic rate controlled by the QoS policy. So, you need to add a policy with LAN to WAN direction setting.
• WAN to LAN: Control Traffic flow from the WAN to LAN. The connection maybe either issued from LAN to WAN or WAN to LAN.)

Protocol: The Protocol will be controlled. For GRE protocol, there is no need to specify the IP addresses or Application ports in this page. For other protocols, at least one value shall be given.

• ANY: No protocol type is specified.
  © TCP
  © UDP
  ICMP
• GRE: For PPTP VPN Connections.

DSCP Marking: Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), it is the first 6 bits in the ToS byte. DSCP Marking allows users to classify traffic based on DSCP value and send packets to next Router. It basically marks the priority given to a data packet as it travels through the Internet or local network.

Note: Router(s) in the backbone network will need to have the capability in executing and checking the DSCP through-out the QoS network.

DSCP Mapping Table
ADSL2+ Router	Standard DSCP
Disabled	None
Best Effort	Best Effort (000000)
Premium	Express Forwarding (101110)
Gold service (L)	Class 1, Gold (001010)
Gold service (M)	Class 1, Silver (001100)
Gold service (H)	Class 1, Bronze (001110)
Silver service (L)	Class 2, Gold (010010)
Silver service (M)	Class 2, Silver (010100)
Silver service (H)	Class 2, Bronze (010110)
Bronze service (L)	Class 3, Gold (011010)
Bronze service (M)	Class 3, Silver (011100)
Bronze service (H)	Class 3, Bronze (011110)

Rate Type: 2 types are provided:

- Limited (Maximum): specify a limited data rate for this policy. It also is the maximal rate for this policy. As above FTP server example, you may want to “throttle” the outgoing FTP speed to 20% of 256K and limit to it, you may use this type.

- Guaranteed (Minimum): specify a minimal data rate for this policy. For example, you want to provide a guaranteed data rate for your outside customers to access your internal FTP server with, say at least, 20% of your total bandwidth. You can use this type. Then, if there is available bandwidth that is not used, it will be given to this policy by following priority assignment.

Ratio: Assign the data ratio for this policy to be controlled. For examples, we want to only allow 20% of the total data transfer rate for the LAN-to-WAN direction to be used for FTP server. Then we can specify here with data ratio = 20. If you have ADSL LINE with 256K/bps.rate, the estimated data rate, in kbps, for this rule is 20%*256*0.9 = 46kbps. (For 0.9 is an estimated factor for the effective data transfer rate for a ADSL LINE from LAN to WAN. For WAN-to-LAN, it is 0.85 to 0.8).

Note: Only ratio's between 11% and 89% is accepted.

Priority: Specify the priority for the bandwidth that is not used. For examples, you may specify two different QoS policies for different applications. Both applications need a minimal bandwidth and need more bandwidth, beside the assigned one, if there is any available/non-used one available. So, you may specify which application can have higher priority to acquire the non-used bandwidth.

High
- Normal: The default is normal priority.
Low

For the sample priority assignment for different policies, it is served in a First-In-First-Out way.

Internal IP Address: The IP address values for Local LAN machines you want to control. (For IP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the source IP address. For IP packages from WAN to LAN, it is the destination IP address.)

Internal Port: The Application port values for local LAN machines you want to control. (For TCP/UDP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the source port value. For TCP/UDP packets from WAN to LAN, it is the destination port value.)

External IP Address: The IP address values for Remote WAN machines you want to control. (For IP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the destination IP address. For IP packages from WAN to LAN, it is the source IP address.)

External Ports: The Application port values for remote machines you want to control. (For TCP/UDP packets from LAN to WAN, it is the destination port value. For TCP/UDP packets from WAN to LAN, it is the source port value.)

Time Schedule: Scheduling your prioritization policy. Please set your schedules first before setting the QoS rules.

Note: When filters are set with the same criteria's, the first rule will take priority. Also, when a rule includes both IP Address and Port, both need to be met for the rule to activate.

Example QoS Setup

VoIP Applications

Voice is latency-sensitive application. Most VoIP devices are used SIP protocol and the port number will be assigned by SIP module automatically. Better to use fixed IP address for catching VoIP packets as high priority.

Virtual Server

In TCP and UDP networks a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to. Some ports have numbers that are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), and these are referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known port assignments so clients can locate them.

If you wish to run a server on your network that can be accessed from the WAN (i.e. from other machines on the Internet that are outside your local network), or any application that can accept incoming connections (e.g. Peer-to-peer/P2P software such as instant messaging applications and P2P file-sharing applications) and are using NAT (Network Address Translation), then you need to configure your router to forward these incoming connection attempts

using specific ports to the PC on your network running the application. You also need to use port forwarding if you wish to host an online game server.

The reason is that when using NAT, your publicly accessible IP address is used by and points to your router, which needs to deliver all traffic to the private IP addresses used by your PCs. Please see the WAN configuration section of this manual for information on NAT.

The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is the central coordinator for the assignment of unique parameter values for Internet protocols. Port numbers range from 0 to 65535, but only port numbers 0 to 1023 are reserved for privileged services and are designated as “well-known ports”. The registered ports are numbered from 1024 through 49151. The remaining ports, referred to as dynamic ports, or private ports, are numbered from 49152 through 65535.

Examples of well-known and registered port numbers are shown below, for further information, please see IANA's website at: http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers

Port Mapping

• Application: Select the service you wish to configure
• Protocol: Automatic when you choose Application from listbox or select a protocol type which you want.
• External Port & Internal Port: Enter the public port number & range you wish to configure.
• Internal IP Address: Enter the IP address of a specific internal server to which requests from the specified port is forwarded.
• Add: Click to add a new virtual server rule. Click again and the next figure appears.
• Edit: Check the Rule No. you wish to edit and then click "Edit/Delete".
• Delete: Check the Rule No. you wish to delete, then click "Edit/Delete".

Since NAT acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, your router protects your network from access by outside users, as all incoming connection attempts point to your router unless you specifically create Virtual Server entries to forward those ports to a PC on your network. When your router needs to allow outside users to access internal servers, e.g. a web server, FTP server, Email server or game server, the router can act as a “virtual server”. You can set up a local server with a specific port number for the service to use, e.g. web/HTTP (port 80), FTP (port 21), Telnet (port 23), SMTP (port 25), or POP3 (port 110). When an incoming access request to the router for a specified port is received, it is forwarded to the corresponding internal server.

For example, if you set the port number 80 (Web/HTTP) to be mapped to the IP Address 192.168.1.2, then all incoming HTTP requests from outside users are forwarded to the local server (PC) with the IP address of 192.168.1.2. If the port is not listed as a predefined application, you need to add it manually.

In addition to specifying the port number used, you also need to specify the protocol used. The protocol is determined by the particular application. Most applications use TCP or UDP, however you can specify other protocols using the drop-down Protocol menu. Setting the protocol to "all" causes all incoming connection attempts using all protocols on all port numbers to be forwarded to the specified IP address.

DMZ

The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets are checked by the Firewall and NAT algorithms, it is then passed to the DMZ host when a packet received does not use a port number in use by any other Virtual Server entries.

Note:

Using port mapping does have security implications, since outside users are able to connect to PCs on your network. For this reason you are advised to use specific Virtual Server entries just for the ports your application requires instead of simply using DMZ or creating a Virtual Server entry for “All” protocols, as doing so results in all connection attempts to your public IP address accessing the specified PC.

Attention:

1. If you disable the NAT option in the WAN-ISP section, the Virtual Server function becomes invalid.
2. If the DHCP server option is enabled, you have to be very careful in assigning the IP addresses of the virtual servers in order to avoid conflicts. The easiest way of configuring Virtual Servers is to manually assign a static IP address to each virtual server PC, with an address that does not fall into the range of IP addresses that are issued by the DHCP server. You can configure the virtual server IP address manually, but it must still be in the same subnet as the router.

Wake on LAN

Wake on LAN allows you to power on computers remotely through the WBR-6600 web user interface. Your PC or notebook will need to support feature.

Enter the MAC address of the PC or notebook you want to wake up.

Click Wake Up to power it on.

Time Schedule

The Time Schedule supports up to 16 time slots which helps you to manage your Internet connection. In each time profile, you may schedule specific day(s) i.e. Monday through Sunday to restrict or allowing the usage of the Internet by users or applications.

This Time Schedule correlates closely with router's time, since router does not have a real time clock on board; it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server from the Internet. Refer to Time Zone for details. You router time should correspond with your local time. If the time is not set correctly, your Time Schedule will not function properly.

• Name: A user-define description to identify this time portfolio.
• Day in a week: The default is set from Sunday through Saturday. You may specify the days for the schedule to be applied.
• Start Time: The default is set at 8:00 AM. You may specify the start time of the schedule.
• End Time: The default is set at 18:00 (6:00PM). You may specify the end time of the schedule. Select the Apply button to apply your changes.

Advanced

Configuration options within the Advanced section are for users who wish to take advantage of the more advanced features of the router. Users who do not understand the features should not attempt to reconfigure their router, unless advised to do so by support staff.

There are seven items within the Advanced section: Static Route, Dynamic DNS, VLAN, Device Management, IGMP, SNMP Access Control and Remote Access.

Static Route

• Destination: The destination subnet IP address.
• Netmask: Subnet mask of the destination IP addresses based on above destination.
• Gateway: The gateway IP address to which packets are forwarded.
• Interface: Select the interface through which packets are forwarded.
• Cost: Represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not be precise, but it must be between 0 and 65535

Static ARP

• IP Address: The IP address you want to give to the LAN client.
  • MAC Address: The MAC Address of LAN client.

Dynamic DNS

The Dynamic DNS function lets you alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, so if your ISP does not assign you a static IP address you can still use a domain name. This is especially useful for hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone wishing to connect to you may use your domain name, rather than having to use your dynamic IP address, which changes from time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP.

You first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider using their website, for example http://www.dyndns.org/

• Disable: Check to disable the Dynamic DNS function.
• Enable: Check to enable the Dynamic DNS function. The fields following are activated and required.
• Dynamic DNS Server: Select the DDNS service you have established an account with.
• Wildcard: Select this check box to enable the DYNDNS Wildcard.
• Domain Name, Username and Password: Enter your registered domain name and your username and password for this service.
• Period: Set the time period between updates, for the Router to exchange information with the DDNS server. In addition to updating periodically as per your settings, the router will perform an update when your dynamic IP address changes.

VLAN

VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a group of devices on different physical LAN segments that can communicate with each other as if they were all on the same physical LAN segment. For example, only Computers which have the same VLAN ID tags can communicate with each other.

This feature is usually used together with Web Smart Switches such as LevelOne GSW-2473.

• LAN Group Name: The name you will give to this VLAN.
- VLAN ID: The ID tag you will give to this VLAN. (VLAN ID 01 is ready used by the router)
- Ethernet Port: Select the Port that you want to tag.
- Link VLAN Group to WAN: If you want to link the VLAN to the WAN interface.

Note: It is recommended that once you enable this feature, all computers connected on the LAN use the VLAN function. Otherwise there may be connection issues.

Device Management

The Device Management advanced configuration settings allow you to control your router's security options and device monitoring features.

Embedded Web Server:

HTTP Port: The port number of the router's embedded web server (for web-based configuration uses. The default value is the standard HTTP port, 80. You may specify an alternative if, for example, you are running a web server on a PC within your LAN.

For Example: User A changes HTTP port number to 100, specifies their own IP address of 192.168.0.55, and sets the logout time to be 100 minutes. The router only allows User A access from the IP address 192.168.0.55 to logon to the Web GUI by typing: http://192.168.0.1:100 in their web browser. After 100 minutes, the device automatically logs out User A.

Expire to auto-logout: How long an inactive user account can remain logged in until the router automatically logs it out.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP):

UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application control the required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of their device.

Both the user's Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows Me natively support UPnP (when the component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection Sharing client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not support UPnP.

• Disable: Check to disable the router's UPnP functionality.
• Enable: Check to enable the router's UPnP functionality.
• UPnP Port: The Default setting is 2800. It is highly recommended you use this port value. If this value conflicts with other ports already in use you may wish to change the port.

IGMP

IGMP, known as Internet Group Management Protocol, is used to management hosts from multicast group.

• IGMP Proxy: Accepting multicast packet. Default is set to Disable.
• IGMP Snooping: Allowing switched Ethernet / Wireless to check and make correct forwarding decisions. Default is set to Disable.

SNMP Access Control

Software on a PC within the LAN is required in order to utilize this function – Simple Network Management Protocol.

SNMP V1 and V2:

Read Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Read Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, user obtains this IP address will be able to view the data.

Write Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Write Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, users from this IP address will be able to view and modify the data.

SNMP V3:

Specify a name and password for authentication. And define the access right from identified IP address. Once the authentication has succeeded, users from this IP address will be able to view and modify the data.

SNMP Version: SNMPV2c and SNMPv3

SNMPv2c is the combination of the enhanced protocol features of SNMPv2 without the SNMPv2 security. The "c" comes from the fact that SNMPv2c uses the SNMPv1 community string paradigm for "security", but is widely accepted as the SNMPv2 standard.

SNMPv3 is a strong authentication mechanism, authorization with fine granularity for remote monitoring.

Traps supported: Cold Start, Authentication Failure.

Save Configuration to Flash

After changing the router's configuration settings, you must save all of the configuration parameters to FLASH to avoid losing them after turning off or resetting your router. Click "Save Config" and click "Apply" to write your new configuration to FLASH.

Save Config

Restart

Click Restart with option Current Settings to reboot your router (and restore your last saved configuration).

Restart

If you wish to restart the router using the factory default settings (for example, after a firmware upgrade or if you have saved an incorrect configuration), select Factory Default Settings to reset to factory default settings.

Logout

To exit the router's web interface, choose Logout. Please ensure that you have saved the configuration settings before you logout.

Be aware that the router is restricted to only one PC accessing the configuration web pages at a time. Once a PC has logged into the web interface, other PCs cannot get access until the current PC has logged out of the web interface. If the previous PC forgets to logout, the second PC can access the page after a user-defined period, by default 3 minutes. You can modify this value using the Advanced – Device Management section of the web interface. Please see the Advanced section of this manual for more information.

Chapter 6 - Troubleshooting

If your ADSL Router is not functioning properly, you can refer first to this chapter for simple troubleshooting before contacting your service provider support. This can save you time and effort but if symptoms persist, consult your service provider.

Problems starting up the router

Problem	Corrective Action
None of the LEDs are on when you turn on the router.	Check the connection between the adapter and the router. If the error persists, you may have a hardware problem. In this case you should contact technical support.

Problems with Easy Sign On

Problem	Corrective Action
Easy Sign On process is interrupted and cannot resume.	You can enter the web user interface by typing the IP address of the WBR-6600 into your web browser (192.168.0.1). Once logged in, you can use the Quick Start wizard.Otherwise, press and hold the reset button on the back of the unit to reset the WBR-6600 to factory default settings. In this case, you will need to close and reopen your web browser to reinitialize Easy Sign On.

Problems with the WAN Interface

Problem	Corrective Action
Initialization of the PVC connection (“linesync”) failed.	Ensure that the telephone cable is connected properly from the ADSL port to the wall jack. The ADSL LED on the front panel of the router should be on. Check that your VPI, VCI, encapsulation type and type of multiplexing settings are the same as those provided by your ISP. Reboot the router. If you still have problems, you may need to verify these settings with your ISP.
Frequent loss of ADSL linesync (disconnections).	Ensure that all other devices connected to the same telephone line as your router (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) have a line filter connected between them and the wall socket (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualified and licensed electrician), and ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and the right way around.Missing line filters or line filters installed the wrong way around can cause problems with your ADSL connection, including causing frequent disconnections.If you have a back-to-base alarm system you should contact your security provider for a technician to make any necessary changes.

Problems with the LAN Interface

Problem	Corrective Action
Can’t ping any PCs on the LAN.	Check the Ethernet LEDs on the front panel. The LED should be on for a port that has a PC connected. If it is off, check the cables between your router and the PC. Make sure you have uninstalled any software firewall for troubleshooting.Verify that the IP address and the subnet mask are consistent between the router and the workstations.
