In Internet Settings, you can configure the way your Wireless-G Broadband Gateway uses to connect to your ISP.
• Connection Type
It allows you to configure the way you connect to your ISP.
This Wireless Broadband Gateway can be connected to your ISP in any of following ways:
- DHCP Client - Fixed IP - PPPoE - PPTP
• MAC Control
If your ISP is restricted to pre-registered computers only, use the MAC Clone feature to copy your Media Access Control (MAC) address to your wireless broadband gateway. This procedure will cause the Wireless-G Broadband Gateway to appear as a single computer.
• Dynamic DNS
This feature enables you to run your domain (ex. www.mywebsite.com) over a changing IP.
Please choose one of the Dynamic DNS providers that this Wireless-G Broadband Gateway supports and fill in related fields to make it work.
25
Installation
LAN Settings
The gateway must have an IP address for the local network. You can also enable DHCP service for dynamic IP address allocation to your clients, or configure filtering functions based on specific clients or protocols.
• IP Setting
You can setup IP address information for the LAN ports of your wireless gateway.
• DHCP Server
Your wireless gateway can act as a DHCP server, and assign IP addresses to your clients automatically. The assigned IP addressed will be within the range of IP pool that you specify.
There is a good security practice to set just enough range of IP pool for the devices you want to connect to this wireless network. This can block other unintended devices to enter your network.
Setting Lease Time for shorter period, such as one day or several hours, can free up IP addresses frequently. However, you may experience brief network performance drag down or stall when DHCP reassigning IP addresses to clients. It also causes a computer’s IP address
26
Installation changed over time. If you will use some advanced router features, such as DMZ or client IP filters, you may select longer time to avoid frequent re-set, or you can use Static Host setting described below
• DHCP IP-MAC Mapping
This setting will permanently associate the MAC address of a LAN client to an IP address. The client is assigned the same IP address every time. Changes to a currently assigned LAN client
IP will take effect only after expiration of current lease. To delete an association, press delete button on the list. To create a new association, enter the information on the field.
• DHCP Client List
The DHCP client list shows clients assigned by the DHCP server
• MAC Filter
You can control which PCs can connect to the Internet. If you enable this feature, only computers with a MAC address located in MAC List can connect to the Internet.
27
Installation
Wireless Settings
In this section, you can configure all wireless related settings for your Wireless-G Broadband
Gateway.
• SSID & Channel
Here is where you may modify the SSID and Channel of your Wireless-G Broadband Gateway
SSID (Service Set ID, or Network Name):
Enter the name you wish to give your Wireless-G Broadband Gateway (ex. “JOHN” or
“JOHNISTHEBEST”). Every Wireless Clients (PC card, USB and PCI adaptors) in your network must be configured to accept with the same SSID.
Channel
It can be left as Default, unless you plan on using multiple access points. When multiple
Wireless Networks presenting, please ensure they are not using the same channel, preferably at least 5 channels apart to each other.
Broadcast SSID
By broadcasting SSID, all wireless devices at surrounding area can see your wireless
28
Installation gateway and easy to associate with it.. However, it is a good security practice not to broadcast SSID, just configure SSID info to those client devices you want them to access you network.
• Radio Setting
Here you can configure Wireless radio settings.
Please note that these settings are for advanced users or network administrators. If you are unfamiliar with how to configure these parameters, we recommend that you keep them at their default value.
Mode
The Wireless-G Broadband Gateway can be set at three wireless modes: Auto, 802.11g only and 802.11b only. If both 802.11g and 802.11b clients presenting at your network, please select “Auto” mode (This is default mode). “802.11g only” mode only supports 802.11g
clients, and gives better performance to whole network. However, all 802.11b clients will not be able to use your network at this mode setting. In some situation, 802.11b clients with old drivers cannot work with Auto mode, “802.11b only” mode can accommodate this problem, but decrease the performance of 802.11g devices.
29
Installation
• Authentication & Encryption
It allows you to configure the setting of network authentication and data encryption.
You can specify the authentication type. “Both” allows wireless client devices access your gateway no matter with shared key or not. “Share key only” only allows devices with same
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key to access your wireless gateway. “802.1X” and “WPA” require you to type in Radius server IP and server key. Please check with your Network
Administrator for related information. “WPA-PSK” needs a pre-shared key to be set on your wireless gateway and all wireless client devices. For WPA configuration in details, please refer to “WPA and WPA-PSK Configuration Guide” at later part of the manual.
For 64-bit WEP key, it should be five ASCII characters (a-z and 0-9, for example: gear56) or ten hexadecimal digits in length (a through f, and 0 through 9, for example: 2af30bc9d5); for
128 bit WEP key, the length will be 13 characters for ASCII or 26 digits for Hexadecimal.
• Associated Client List
It displays information of stations that are currently associated to your wireless gateway. You can check who are linking to your network, for security and activity monitoring purposes.
30
Installation
• Association Control
This page allows you to control which computers can connect to the Wireless-G Broadband
Gateway.
If you enable this feature, only computers with a MAC address listed located in Association
Control List can connect to the wireless LAN.
NAT
Network Address Translation allows multiple computers on your network to access the Internet over a single user account. NAT can also prevent hacker attacks by mapping local addresses to public addresses for key services such as Web or FTP.
• Static NAT Setting
Use the Static NAT screen for the Network Address Translation (NAT) process that provides internal to external IP address mapping.
• Virtual Server
You can configure the Wireless-G Broadband Gateway as a virtual server so that remote users can access services such as Web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses.
31
Installation
For example: a FTP server (public port 21) will be translate into a local site (private
192.168.1.25) through private port 1502.
• Special Applications
Applications such as Internet gaming, video conferencing, and Internet telephony software usually require multiple connections. The Special Applications feature allows these applications to work properly.
Firewall
Your IOGEAR Wireless-G Broadband Gateway features powerful and flexible firewall protection to keep your computer and/or network secure.
You can configure the strength of firewall protection at a high or low level. If you are an advanced user, you can configure firewall policies depending on your needs.
• Basic Settings
Configure the basic settings to enable the firewall to protect your network from hacker attacks.
32
Installation
Please be aware that a higher level of firewall protection increases network security but might affect your Wireless-G Broadband Gateway performance.
• Service Filters
You can add custom service filters not listed in the services tables. Select any added custom service filters in the Policies section to enable advanced firewall settings.
• Policies
Policies are rules that you define for your firewall settings. You may define and schedule rules for example, for inbound and outbound traffic.
Please be careful on these configurations. Any incorrect settings might cause the firewall to block all traffic or make your network vulnerable to outside hacker attacks.
• Notification
You can configure a schedule to enable the Wireless-G Broadband Gateway to send an email notification to a specified user any events on your Wireless-G Broadband Gateway.
This feature is useful if you want to acquire the security log remotely.
33
Installation
• Virtual DMZ
If you have a local client computer that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the NAT firewall, you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining a Virtual DMZ.
Print Server
Print Server allows LAN users to share one printer across the entire network.
• Basic Settings
It allows you to configure the attached printer to be shared amongst all computers on the LAN.
• Monitor Status
It is to display information of the current printing tasks.
34
Operation
WPA and WPA-PSK configuration guide
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a sub-set of the forthcoming IEEE 802.11i security standard and is currently still in draft stage. WPA addresses those known weakness of WEP and provides stronger security to wireless network.
IOGEAR Wireless-G Broadband Gateway supports three authentication modes:
• 802.11x (need RADIUS server to authenticate the clients, using WEP keying)
• WPA (same 802.1x, but with TKIP keying support)
• WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key, no RADIUS server needed)
Please follow below procedures to initiate your gateway for WPA support.
1. Click Custom>Wireless>Authentication & Encryption to enter the following page.
35
36
Operation
Operation
2. WPA-PSK configuration
WPA Pre-Shared Key
There are two ways to configure WPA Pre-Shared Key:
1) PassPhrase Mode: Input a phrase into the field. The Wireless-G Broadband Gateway will automatically generate a Pre-Shared Key based on the phrase you enter. The phrase can be within 8 to 63 characters (we recommend at least 12 characters to achieve a sufficient level of security).
2) Hex mode: Input 64 hexadecimal digits. Please write down the key you enter. You will need to enter same key to your wireless client side.
WPA Group Rekey Interval
This gateway could change the group key periodically. Enter the period you want into the WPA
Group Rekey Interval filed.
Encryption Type
The current version only supports TKIP encryption. AES encryption will be available soon.
37
38
Operation
Operation
3. WPA configuration
RADIUS Server IP
Please enter the IP address of RADIUS server.
RADIUS Server Port
This field specifies the port on which RADIUS server is listening.
RADIUS Server Key
This field carries the shared secret for RADIUS authentication. Some information need to be encrypted in a RADIUS packet, this key is used to encrypt and decrypt this information (such as password).
Reconfirm RADIUS Server Key
Make sure RADIUS Server Key is correct.
WPA Group Rekey Interval
It is the same as WPA-PSK configuration.
39
Encryption Type
It is the same WPA-PSK configuration.
Operation
40
Operation
Note:
To complete the WPA operation, you also need to enable the WPA client at the wireless client site (the computer running wireless client’s devices, such as theGWP511 Cardbus card or GWU513 USB adaptor).
Microsoft provides a free WPA upgrade for Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later or Windows Server 2003. For any OS other than Win XP, there is client software available from third-party suppliers such as Funk Software ( www .
funk.com
) and
Meetinghouse Data Communications ( www.mtghouse.com
).
The WPA client for Windows XP can be found in the Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 815485 ( http://support.microsoft.com/ default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;815485 ) or downloaded directly from Microsoft http://www .
microsoft.com/downloads/ details.aspx?FamilyID=009d8425-ce2b-47a4-abec-274845dc9e91&displaylang=en
