3G 300Mbps Wireless Router

Chapter 1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing Fly-link FL-MR4420ND

300Mbps Wireless Router!

FL-MR4420ND is a high speed 3G 300Mbps Wireless

Router, which complies with the latest IEEE802.11n and

IEEE802.11b/g standards and provides up to 300Mbps wireless receiving and transmitting rate with its wireless transmitting distance 6 times farther than G-products.

It includes Wireless AP, Router, 4-Port Switch, and

Firewall in one, and basically provides three ways to access the Internet sharing with other computers. The first way is to share 3G Internet connection with all network users using a 3G USB modem card to connect the USB port of the Router. It is especially suitable for the users who are not convenient in using fixed broadband or those who need to share the Internet movably.

The second way is to use the unique wireless WAN feature to access wireless broadband. When wireless broadband signals provided by ISP are not strong enough in some Wi-Fi hot area, you can set the wireless

WAN feature to amplify wireless signals and share the

Internet with other computers.

The third way is to connect the Router’s WAN port with the traditional DSL or Cable broadband line to access the Internet. With powerful compatibility, it can break

1

3G 300Mbps Wireless Router through some access restricted area to share the

Internet with multiple computers easily.

Besides those access ways, WDS (Wireless Distribution

System) enables you to bridge other wireless routers and extend wireless coverage area. Meanwhile, QoS bandwidth control is used to control downloading speeds of the specific computers. Then, the included

“Setup Wizard” is developed by Fly-link especially for less IT-savvy users to install the device within seconds.

In a word, FL-MR4420ND is your premier choice to share the Internet via 3G, wireless broadband, and wired broadband access ways.

This feature is to isolate the communication of wireless clients connected with the same SSID.

¾ AP Isolation: One access control feature based on

SSID. When this feature is enabled, each of your wireless clients will be in its own virtual network and will not be able to communicate with each other. When this feature is enabled, wireless clients connected with the Main SSID and Minor SSID can not communicate with each other, which can secure the wireless network strongly. For example, configure main SSID as AP1, minor SSID as AP2.

PC1 connects to AP1 via wireless adapter; PC2 connecting to AP2. After the feature is enabled, two

PCs can not communicate and share network resource each other. This feature is to isolate the communication of wireless clients connected with different SSID.

64

3G 300Mbps Wireless Router

9.3 ALG Service Settings

In the context of computer networking, an ALG or application layer gateway consists of a security component that augments a firewall or NAT employed in a computer network. It allows customized 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, BitTorrent, SIP,

RTSP, file transfer applications etc.

In order for these protocols to work through NAT or a firewall, either the application has to know about an address/port number combination that allows incoming packets, or the NAT has to monitor the control traffic and open up port mappings (firewall pinhole) dynamically as required. Legitimate application data can thus be passed through the security checks of the firewall or NAT that would have otherwise restricted the traffic for not meeting its limited filter criteria.

65

3G 300Mbps Wireless Router

Usually allowing client applications to use dynamic ephemeral TCP/ UDP ports to communicate with the known ports used by the server applications, even though a firewall-configuration may allow only a limited number of known ports. In the absence of an ALG, either the ports would get blocked or the network administrator would need to explicitly open up a large number of ports in the firewall; rendering the network vulnerable to attacks on those ports.

In the default ALG settings, the following protocols have enabled. It is recommended to keep the settings unchanged.

1. FTP

2. TFTP

3. PPTP

4. IPSec

5. L2TP

So, it’s essential for the router to choose the best path, i.e. routing arithmetic. In order to finish this function, many transferring paths, i.e. routing table, are saved in the router, for choosing when needed.

13.2 Static Routing

This page is used to configure the Router’s static routing.

¾ Destination LAN IP: The address of the remote host with which you want to construct a static route.

¾ Subnet Mask: The network portion of the

83

3G 300Mbps Wireless Router

Destination LAN IP.

¾ Gateway: The gateway of the next hop, usually the Router or host’s IP address.

Note

1. The gateway must keep the same segment with the

Router’s LAN IP address.

2. If the destination IP address is one host’s IP address, the Subnet mask should be 255.255.255.255.

3. If the destination IP address is an IP address range, the subnet mask should match the IP address. For example, if the IP is 10.0.0.0, subnet mask should be

255.0.0.0; if the IP is 10.1.2.0, subnet mask should be

255.255.255.0.

Appendix Ⅰ:Glossary

3G

3G, the 3rd Generation, refers to the third digital communication technology. It can manage multi-media such as image, audio, and video streams etc. and provide different communication services such as web browse, telephone session, and electronic business etc.

CDMA2000

CDMA2000 ,also called CDMA Multi-Carrier, is one of the current three 3G standards in the world which was put forward by an American company. The system derives from narrow frequency CDMA 1X digital standard. You can upgrade the original CDMA 1X structure to 3G with cheap construction cost.

WCDMA

WCDMA (Wideband CDMA), also called CDMA Direct

Spread, is the broadband CDMA technology which was put forward by Europe. It is the standard of 3G technology which was developed from GSM network.

The standard has put forward the evolved strategy. The system can be established on the present GSM network.

The system provider can change into this system easily and it would be accepted widely in Asia. Thus, W-CDMA has a born advantage in market and is one of the three

3G standards in the world.

94

3G 300Mbps Wireless Router

Channel

An instance of medium use for the purpose of passing protocol data units (PDUs) that may be used simultaneously, in the same volume of space, with other instances of medium use(on other channels) by other instances of the same physical layer (PHY),with an acceptably low frame error ratio(FER) due to mutual interference.

SSID

Service Set Identifier. An SSID is the network name shared by all devices in a wireless network. Your network’s SSID should be unique to your network and identical for all devices within the network. It is case-sensitive and must not exceed 20 characters (use any of the characters on the keyboard).Make sure this setting is the same for all devices in your wireless network.

WEP

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the method for secure wireless data transmission. WEP adds data encryption to every single packet transmitted in the wireless network. The 40bit and 64bit encryption are the same because of out 64 bits, 40 bits are same. WEP uses a common KEY to encode the

95

3G 300Mbps Wireless Router data. Therefore, all devices on a wireless network must use the same key and same type of encryption. There are 2 methods for entering the KEY; one is to enter a

16-bit HEX digit. Using this method, users must enter a 10-digit number (for 64-bit) or 26-digit number (for

128-bit) in the KEY field. Users must select the same key number for all devices. The other method is to enter a text and let the computer generate the WEP key for you. However, since each product use different method for key generation, it might not work for different products. Therefore, it is NOT recommended using.

WPA/WPA2

A security protocol for wireless networks that builds on the basic foundations of WEP. It secures wireless data transmission by using a key similar to WEP, but the added strength of WPA is that the key changes dynamically. The changing key makes it much more difficult for a hacker to learn the key and gain access to the network.WPA2 is the second generation of WPA security and provides a stronger encryption mechanism through Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), which is a requirement for some government users.

96

3G 300Mbps Wireless Router

802.1x Authentication

Static WEP key is difficult to manage. When you change the key, you need to inform everyone. Once the key is disclosed, there is no security. In addition, since static

WEP encryption has serious security holes, the WEP key can be decrypted by receiving multiple data. 802.1X was first used in the wired Ethernet connection to prevent illegal users using the network. Later, people discovered that 802.1x authentication can be used to solve the security problems of wireless network connection. The EAP-TLS of 802.1x accomplished the bidirectional authentication between the users and networks. It can either prevent the illegal users using the network or the users connecting to the illegal AP.

802.1x uses dynamic WEP encryption to prevent the decryption of WEP Key. In order to solve the distributing problems of digital certificates, people improve the TLS certificate into TTLS and PEAP. Thus, users can use the traditional Username authentication method to access the Internet.

Appendix : Troubleshooting

In this part some questions and problems shown during the Router’s usage and installation will be given suggesting answers. If your problems are not in the list, please log into our website www.fly-link.net or send an

E-mail to [email protected], and we will reply you in the earliest time.

1. Why can’t I login to the Web interface of the

Router after entering the IP address in the address field?

Step 1: check the Router if it works well. Once the device is powered on for a few seconds, the SYS indicator on the panel will be turned on. If it is not, please contact us.

Step 2: check the network cables if it is good and the corresponding indicator is “Always ON”. Sometimes, the indicator is “Always ON”, but it does not mean it gets through.

Run “Ping” command and check if it can ping the

Router’s LAN IP address 192.168.0.1. If it is OK, please make sure your browser does not access the Internet by proxy server. If the ping fails, you can press the “RESET” button for 7 seconds to restore to default settings. And then repeat the ping operation. If it still does not work, please contact us.

Press the “RESET” button for 7 seconds to restore the

Router to default settings.

3. The computer connected with the Router shows

IP address conflict. What can I do?

Check if there are other DHCP servers in the LAN. If there have, disable them.

The default IP address of the Router is 192.168.0.1 and please maker sure the address is not occupied by other devices. If there are two computers with the same IP addresses, please modify one.

4. I can not use E-mail and access the Internet.

What can I do?

It happens in ADSL connection and Dynamic IP users.

And you need modify the default MTU value (1492).

Please in the “WAN Setting” modify the MTU value with the recommended value as 1450 or 1400.

5. How can I configure and access the Internet via

Dynamic IP?

In Setup Wizard of the Web utility interface, select

“Dynamic IP” connection type and click “Save” to activate it. As some ISPs bind the user computer’s MAC address, you need to clone the Router’s WAN MAC

99

3G 300Mbps Wireless Router address to the bind21ing PC’s MAC address. Select

“MAC Address Clone” in “Advanced Setting” to input your computer’s MAC address and click “Apply” to activate it.

6. How to share my computer’s source with other

users in Internet

If you want Internet users to access the internal server via the Router such as e-mail server, Web, FTP, you can configure the “Virtual Server” to come true.

Step 1: create your internal server, make sure the LAN users can access these servers and know related service port. For example, Web server’s port is 80; FTP is 21;

SMTP is 25 and POP3 is 110.

Step 2: in the Router’s web click “Virtual Server” and select “Single Port Forwarding”.

Step 3: input the external service port given by the

Router, for example, 80.

Step 4: input the internal Web service port, for example,

80.

Step 5: Input the internal server’s IP address. If your

Web server’s IP address is 192.168.0.10, please input it.

Step 6: select the communication protocol used by your internal host: TCP, UDP, ICMP.

Step 7: click “Apply” to activate the settings.
