[. . . ] Primary DNS Server: Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers. The DNS servers are passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address and the subnet mask. Secondary DNS Server: Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers. The DNS servers are passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address and the subnet mask. 30 4. 2. 3 Wireless 802. 11g is only supported for the BiPAC 5200G . This section introduces the wireless LAN and some basic configurations. Wireless LANs can be as simple as two computers with wireless LAN cards communicating in a peer-to-peer network or as complex as a number of computers with wireless LAN cards communicating through access points which bridge network traffic to the wired LAN. 31 Wireless LAN Access Point: Default setting is set to Activated. If you do not have any wireless, both 802. 11g and 802. 11b, device in your network, select Deactived. SSID: The SSID is the unique name of a wireless access point (AP) to be distinguished from another. For security propose, change the default wlan-ap to a unique ID name to the AP which is already built-in to the router's wireless interface. It is case sensitive and must not excess 32 characters. Make sure your wireless clients have exactly the SSID as the device, in order to get connected to your network. Broadcast SSID: Select Yes to hide the SSID in so a station cannot obtain the SSID through passive scanning. Select No to make the SSID visible so a station can obtain the SSID through passive scanning. Channel ID: The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802. 11b/g wireless devices is called a channel. Select a channel from the drop-down list box. Authentication Type: To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the network, the router offers highly secure data encryption, known as WEP. &WPA. If you require high security for transmissions, there are two alternatives to select from: 64-bit WEP and 128-bit WEP. WEP 128 will offer increased security over WEP 64. You can disable or enable with WPA or WEP for protecting wireless network. The default type of wireless is disabled and to allow all wireless computers to communicate with the access points without any data encryption Advanced Setting Beacon interval: The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the Router to synchronize the wireless network. RTS/CTS Threshold: The RTS (Request To Send) threshold (number of bytes) for enabling RTS/CTS handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS handshake. [. . . ] Receive CRC Errors: This field displays the number of error packets on this port. Receive Under-size Frames: This field displays the number of under-size frames received in the last second. 58 ADSL Transmit total PDUs: This field displays the number of total PDU transmitted in the last second. Transmit total Error Counts: This field displays the number of total error transmitted in the last second. Receive total PDUs: This field displays the number of total PDU received in the last second.
