6.3. Set Up a Dynamic DNS Service Account (Router Mode)

Most ISPs (Internet service providers) assign a dynamic IP address to the mesh device and you can use this IP address to access your mesh device remotely. However, the IP address can change any time and you don't know when it changes. In this case, you might need the DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) feature on the mesh device to allow you and your friends to access your mesh device 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 mesh device.

To set up DDNS, please follow the instructions below:

1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in with the password you set for the mesh device.
2. Go to Advanced > Network > Dynamic DNS.
3. Select the Service Provider (TP-Link/Dyndns/NO-IP).
4. Log in with your DDNS account, select a service provider. Enter the username, password and domain name of the account (such as lisa.ddns.net).

1. Click Log in and Save.

Tips: If you want to use a new DDNS account, please log out first, then log in with the new account.

6.4. Create Static Routes (Router Mode)

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 through Mesh Device A, but I also want to visit my company's network. Now I have a switch and another Mesh Device B. I connect the devices as shown in the following image so that the physical connection between my PC and my company's server is established. To surf the internet and visit my company's network at the same time, I need to configure the static routing.

How can I do that?

1. Make sure the mesh devices use different LAN IP addresses on the same subnet. Disable Mesh Device B's DHCP function.
2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in with the password you set for the Mesh Device A.
3. Go to Advanced > Network > Static Routing. Select your current WAN Interface and click Save.

1. Click Add to add a new static routing entry. Finish the settings according to the following explanations:

• Network Destination: 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 Mesh Device A. In the example, the IP address of the company network is the destination IP address, so here we enter 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 we enter 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 mesh device's IP which sends out the data. In the example, the data packets will be sent to the LAN port of Mesh Device B and then to the Server, so the default gateway should be 192.168.88.2.
• 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 of Mesh Device A, so LAN should be selected.
• Select the Enable This Entry check box to enable this entry.
• Click Save to make the settings effective.

Done!

Open a web browser on your PC. Enter the company server's IP address to visit the company network.

NAT Forwarding (Router Mode)

The mesh device's NAT (Network Address Translation) feature makes devices on the LAN use the same public IP address to communicate with devices on the internet, which protects the local network by hiding IP addresses of the devices. However, it also brings about the problem that an external host cannot initiatively communicate with a specified device on the local network.

With the forwarding feature the mesh device can penetrate the isolation of NAT and allows devices on the internet to initiatively communicate with devices on the local network, thus realizing some special functions.

The TP-Link mesh device supports four forwarding rules. If two or more rules are set, the priority of implementation from high to low is Port Forwarding, Port Triggering, UPnP and DMZ.

It contains the following sections:

• ALG - Set Up Public Services on The Local Network by Virtual Servers - Open Ports Dynamically by Port Triggering • Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ • Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by UPnP

12.1. ALG

ALG allows customized Network Address Translation (NAT) traversal filters to be plugged into the gateway to support address and port translation for certain application layer "control/data" protocols such as FTP, TFTP, H323 etc. It is recommended to keep the default settings.

You may need to disable SIP ALG when you are using voice and video applications to create and accept a call through the mesh device, since some voice and video communication applications do not work well with SIP ALG.

Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for the mesh device. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > ALG.

12. 2. Set Up Public Services on the Local Network by Virtual Servers

Virtual Servers are used to set up public services on the local network. A virtual server is defined as an external port, and all requests from the Internet to this external port will be redirected to a designated computer, which must be configured with a static or reserved IP address. When you build up a server on the local network and want to share it on the Internet, Virtual Servers can realize the service and provide it to the Internet users.

The table displays the relevant parameters of the virtual server.

To set up a Virtual Server rule:

1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for the mesh device.
2. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > Virtual Servers and click + Add.
3. Select an interface name from the drop-down list.

1. Click View Existing Applications to select a service from the list to automatically populate the appropriate port number in the External Port and Internal Port fields. If the service is not listed, enter the External Port number (e.g. 21) or a range of ports (e.g. 21-25). Leave the Internal Port blank if it is the same as the External Port or enter a specific port number (e.g. 21) if the External Port is a single port. The following picture takes application FTP as an example.

1. Enter the IP address of the computer running the service application in the Internal IP field.
2. Select a protocol for the service application: TCP, UDP, or All from the Protocol dropdown list.
3. Select Enable This Entry.

8. Click OK.

Tips:

• If you want to disable this entry, click the Bulb icon.
• It is recommended to keep the default settings of Internal Port and Protocol if you are not clear about which port or protocol to use.
• If the local host device is hosting more than one type of available services, you need to create a rule for each service. Please note that the External Port should NOT be overlapped.

12.3. Open Ports Dynamically by Port Triggering

Port Triggering can specify a triggering port and its corresponding external ports. When a host on the local network initiates a connection to the triggering port, all the external ports will be opened for subsequent connections. The mesh device can record the IP address of the host. When the data from the internet return to the external ports, the mesh device can forward them to the corresponding host. Port Triggering is mainly applied to online games, VolPs, video players and common applications including MSN Gaming Zone, Dialpad and Quick Time 4 players, etc.

Follow the steps below to configure the Port Triggering rules:

1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for the mesh device.
2. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > Port Triggering and click + Add .

1. Click View Existing Applications, and select the desired application. The Triggering Port, Triggering Protocol and External Port will be automatically filled in. The following picture takes application MSN Gaming Zone as an example.

1. Click OK.

Tips:

• You can add multiple port triggering rules according to your network need. • The triggering ports can not be overlapped.
• 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.

12.4. Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ

When a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host on 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 all ports opened. When you are not clear about which ports to open in some special applications, such as IP camera and database software, you can set the PC to be a DMZ host.

Note:

When DMZ is enabled, the DMZ host is totally exposed to the internet, which may bring some potential safety hazards. If DMZ is not in use, please disable it in time.

I want to:

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 normally but cannot join a team with other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ host with all ports open.

How can I do that?

1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example 192.168.88.100.
2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for the mesh device.
3. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > DMZ and tick to enable DMZ.
4. Enter the PC's IP address 192.168.88.100 manually in the DMZ Host IP Address field.

5. Click SAVE.

Done!

The configuration is completed. You've set your PC to a DMZ host and now you can make a team to game with other players.

12.5. Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by UPnP

The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows 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 on the local network and the internet can freely communicate with each other thus realizing the seamless connection of the network. You may need to enable the UPnP if you want to use applications for multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real-time communication (such as VoIP or telephone conference) or remote assistance, etc.

Tips:

• UPnP is enabled by default in this mesh device.
• Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature.
• 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 mesh device which has connected to the internet to play online games, UPnP will send request to the mesh device to open the corresponding ports allowing the following data penetrating the NAT to transmit. Therefore, you can play Xbox online games without a hitch.

If necessary, you can follow the steps to change the status of UPnP.

1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for the mesh device.
2. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > UPnP and toggle on or off according to your needs.

Parental Controls (Router Mode)

This function allows you to block inappropriate, explicit and malicious websites, and control access to specified websites at specified time.

I want to:

Control what types of websites my children or other home network users can visit and the time of day they are allowed to access the internet.

For example, I want to allow my children's devices (e.g. a computer or a tablet) to access only www.tp-link.com and Wikipedia.org from 18:00 (6 PM) to 22:00 (10 PM) on the weekdays and not other time.

How can I do that?
