Application Diagram  
Wireless Performance Considerations  
There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices.  
1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path, rather  
than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the more signal  
you will lose.  
2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce the  
range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will  
minimize the amount of obstructions between them.  
3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor  
environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through  
less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass  
or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.  
4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use the  
wireless adapter’s site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for  
your wireless devices.  
5. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also impact  
your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that generates RF  
noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors.  
6. Any device operating on the 2.4GHz frequency will cause interference. Devices such  
as 2.4GHz cordless phones or other wireless remotes operating on the 2.4GHz  
frequency can potentially drop the wireless signal. Although the phone may not be  
in use, the base can still transmit wireless signal. Move the phone’s base station as  
far away as possible from your wireless devices.  
The access point is installed near the router and physically connected to it from one of  
the LAN port of the router which connects to the Internet. Wireless signals from the  
router are broadcasted to wireless clients such as laptops (with wireless capability)  
thereby providing Internet access.  
If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices  
or installing additional access points. The use of higher gain antennas may also provide  
the necessary coverage depending on the environment.

2. Make sure that your modem is working properly. Your modem is often provided by  
your Internet Service Provider (ISP) when you sign up for Internet service. If your  
modem is not working contact your ISP to verify functionality.  
Basic Router Setup  
3. Set up your router. See “How to setup your router” below.  
Creating a Home Network  
4. To connect additional wired computers or wired network devices to your network,  
What is a network?  
5. To set up wireless networking on your router, see “Wireless Networking and Security”  
on page 14.  
A network is a group of computers or devices that can communicate with each other. A  
home network of more than one computer or device also typically includes Internet  
access, which requires a router.  
How to setup your router  
Refer to the Quick Installation Guide or continue to the next section Router  
Installationon page 9 for more detailed installation instructions.  
A typical home network may include multiple computers, a media player/server, a  
printer, a modem, and a router. A large home network may also have a switch,  
additional routers, access points, and many Internet-capable media devices such as TVs,  
game consoles, and Internet cameras.  
Where to find more help  
In addition to this User’s Guide, you can find help below:  
Modem – Connects a computer or router to the Internet or ISP (Internet Service  
Provider).  
Router – Connects multiple devices to the Internet.  
http://www.trendnet.com/support (documents, downloads, and FAQs are  
available from this Web page)  
Switch –Connect several wired network devices to your home network. Your  
router has a built-in network switch (the LAN port 1-4). If you have more wired  
network devices than available Ethernet ports on your router, you will need an  
additional switch to add more wired connections.  
How to set up a home network  
1. For a network that includes Internet access, you’ll need:  
Computers/devices with an Ethernet port (also called network port) or wireless  
networking capabilities.  
A modem and Internet service to your home, provided by your ISP (modem  
typically supplied by your ISP).  
A router to connect multiple devices to the Internet.

Wireless Networking and Security  
WPA: This encryption is significantly more robust than the WEP technology.  
Much of the older 802.11g hardware was been upgraded (with firmware/driver  
upgrades) to support this encryption standard. Total wireless speeds under this  
encryption type however are limited to 54Mbps.  
How to choose the type of security for your wireless network  
Setting up wireless security is very important. Leaving your wireless network open and  
unsecure could expose your entire network and personal files to outsiders. TRENDnet  
recommends reading through this entire section and setting up wireless security on your  
new router.  
WPA-Auto: This setting provides the router with the ability to detect wireless  
devices using either WPA or WPA2 encryption. Your wireless network will  
automatically change the encryption setting based on the first wireless device  
connected. For example, if the first wireless client that connects to your wireless  
network uses WPA encryption your wireless network will use WPA encryption.  
Only when all wireless clients disconnect to the network and a wireless client  
with WPA2 encryption connects your wireless network will then change to WPA2  
encryption. NOTE: WPA2 encryption supports 802.11n speeds and WPA  
encryption will limit your connection speeds to 54Mbps  
There are a few different wireless security types supported in wireless networking each  
having its own characteristics which may be more suitable for your wireless network  
taking into consideration compatibility, performance, as well as the security strength  
along with using older wireless networking hardware (also called legacy hardware).  
It is strongly recommended to enable wireless security to prevent unwanted users from  
accessing your network and network resources (personal documents, media, etc.).  
WPA2: This is the most secure wireless encryption available today, similar to WPA  
encryption but more robust. This encryption standard also supports the highest  
connection speeds. TRENDnet recommends setting your router to this encryption  
standard. If you find that one of your wireless network devices does not support  
WPA2 encryption, then set your router to either WPA or WPA-Auto encryption.  
In general, it is recommended that you choose the security type with the highest  
strength and performance supported by the wireless computers and devices in your  
network. Please review the security types to determine which one you should use for  
your network.  
Wireless Encryption Types  
WEP: Legacy encryption method supported by older 802.11b/g hardware. This is  
the oldest and least secure type of wireless encryption. It is generally not  
recommended to use this encryption standard, however if you have old 802.11 b  
or 802.11g wireless adapters or computers with old embedded wireless  
cards(wireless clients), you may have to set your router to WEP to allow the old  
adapters to connect to the router.  
Note: Check the specifications of your wireless network adapters and wireless  
appliances to verify the highest level of encryption supported.  
Note: This encryption standard will limit connection speeds to 54Mbps.

Note: Refer to your wireless device documentation for details on the operation of  
WPS.  
Note: It is recommended to use port 1812.  
o Shared Secret – Enter the shared secret used to authorize your router with your  
RADIUS server.  
Recommended Hardware Push Button (PBC) Method  
Note it is recommended that a wireless key (passphrase or password) is created  
before connecting clients using the PBC method. If no wireless key is defined when  
connecting via PBC, the router will automatically create an encryption key that is 64  
characters long. This 64 character key will then have to be used if one has to  
connect computers to the router using the traditional connection method.  
To add a wireless device to your network, simply push the WPS button on the wireless  
device you are connecting(consult client device User’s Guide for length of time), then  
push and hold the WPS button located on your router for 3 seconds and release it. A  
blue LED on your router WPS button will flash indicating that the WPS setup process has  
been activated on your router. (See Product Hardware Featureson page 5)  
Connect wireless devices to your router  
A variety of wireless network devices can connect to your wireless network such as:  
Gaming Consoles  
Internet enabled TVs  
Network media players  
Smart Phones  
Wireless Laptop computers  
Wireless IP cameras  
For connecting additional WPS supported devices, repeat this process for each  
additional device.  
Each device may have its own software utility for searching and connecting to available  
wireless networks, therefore, you must refer to the User’s Manual/Guide of your  
wireless client device to determine how to search and connect to this router’s wireless  
network.

1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”  
on page 24).  
Wireless Mode: Select the appropriate mode for your network.  
o 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n mixed mode – Select this mode for the best compatibility.  
This mode allows older 802.11b and 802.11g wireless devices to connect to the  
router in addition to newer 802.11n devices.  
o 2.4GHz 802.11b/g mixed mode – This mode only allows devices to connect to the  
router using older and slow 802.11b or 802.11g technology and it thereby  
reduces the router’s maximum speed to 54Mbps (typically not recommended).  
o 2.4GHz 802.11n only mode – This mode only allows newer 802.11n devices to  
connect to your router. This mode does ensure the highest speed and security for  
your network, however if you have older 802.11g wireless clients, they will no  
longer be able to connect to this router.  
2. Click on Wireless and click on WPS.  
3. Next to PIN, enter the WPS PIN of the wireless device you are connecting and click

router using older and slow 802.11g technology (typically not recommended).  
o 2.4GHz 802.11b only mode – This mode only allows devices to connect to the  
router using older and slow 802.11b technology (typically not recommended).  
Note: Please check the specifications on your wireless devices for the highest  
wireless capability supported first before applying these settings. If you are unsure,  
it is recommended that you keep the default setting (2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n mixed  
mode) for the best compatibility.  
Broadcast Network Name (SSID):  
o Enabled allows wireless devices to search and discover your wireless network  
name (also called SSID) broadcasted by your router.  
o Disabled turns off the ability for wireless devices to find your network. It is still  
possible for wireless devices to be configured to connect to your wireless  
network.  
When applying the 802.11 mode setting, please keep in mind the following:  
Wireless devices that support 802.11n are backwards compatible and can connect  
wirelessly at 802.11g or 802.11b.  
Note: Setting this option to Disabled, will disable WPS functionality.  
Connecting at 802.11b or 802.11g will limit the capability of your 802.11n  
supported wireless devices from obtaining higher performance and data rates.  
Allowing 802.11b or 802.11g devices to connect to an 802.11n capable wireless  
network may degrade the wireless network performance below the higher  
performance and data rates of 802.11n.  
Frequency (Channel): To manually set the channel on which the router will  
broadcast, uncheck Auto Channel, then click the drop-down list and select the  
desired Channel for wireless communication. The goal is to select the Channel that  
is least used by neighboring wireless networks.  
Wireless devices that only support 802.11b or 802.11g will not be able to connect  
to a wireless network that is set to 802.11n only mode.  
Wireless devices that only support 802.11b will not be able to connect to a wireless  
network that is set to 802.11g only mode.  
WDS: This acronym stands for Wireless Distribution System and when enabled it  
creates a wireless bridge connection between your wireless router and an access  
point that supports WDS.  
o AP MAC Address: Enter the MAC address of the access point you would like the  
router to WDS to. You will also have to enter the MAC address of the router into  
the access point to establish the WDS or bridge connection. This wireless router  
supports up to 3 WDS connections.  
Wireless Name (SSID): This acronym stands for Service Set Identifier and is the  
name of your wireless network. It differentiates your wireless network from others  
around you. By default, the router broadcast TRENDnet691 as the wireless network  
name. If you choose to change the SSID, change it to a name that you can easily  
remember.  
Channel Width: This setting only applies to wireless devices connecting at 802.11n.  
Select the appropriate channel width for your wireless network.  
o 20 MHz – This mode operates using a single 20MHz channel for wireless  
devices connecting at 802.11n. This setting may provide more stability  
Multiple SSID: This router support additional SSID, you can set an additional of 3  
SSSID for your wireless network.

than Auto 20/40 MHz for connectivity in busy wireless environments  
where there are several wireless networks in the area.  
Steps to improve wireless connectivity  
There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices. Follow  
these tips to help improve your wireless connectivity:  
o Auto 20/40 MHz – This mode can automatically switch between using a  
single 20MHz channel or 40MHz (two 20MHz channels). When 40MHz is  
active, this mode is capable of providing higher performance only if the  
wireless devices support the 40MHz channel width. Enabling 20/40MHz  
typically results in substantial performance increases when connecting  
to an 802.11n client.  
1. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce the  
range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will  
minimize the amount of obstructions between them.  
a. For the widest coverage area, install your router near the center of your home,  
and near the ceiling, if possible.  
b.Avoid placing the router on or near metal objects (such as file cabinets and metal  
furniture), reflective surfaces (such as glass or mirrors), and masonry walls.  
c. Any obstruction can weaken the wireless signal (even non-metallic objects), so  
the fewer obstructions between the router and the wireless device, the better.  
d.Place the router in a location away from other electronics, motors, and  
fluorescent lighting.  
e. Many environmental variables can affect the router’s performance, so if your  
wireless signal is weak, place the router in several locations and test the signal  
strength to determine the ideal position.  
Guard Interval: The purpose of the guard interval is to introduce immunity  
propagation delays, echoes and reflections to which digital data is normally  
sensitive to  
o Long: Guard interval of 800nsec.  
o Auto: Router automatically set the interval  
2. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor  
environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through  
less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass  
or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.  
MCS: Modulation and Coding Scheme is the value that determines the modulation,  
coding number of spatial channels.  
3. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use the  
wireless adapter’s site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for  
your wireless devices.  
4. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also  
impact your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that  
generates RF noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors.  
Extension Channel: Extension channel is used when Channel Bandwidth is set to  
“Auto 20/40MHz” and the channel being used is statically assigned. This allows you  
to statically assign the extended channel to use in 40MHz.  
If possible, upgrade wireless network interfaces (such as wireless cards in computers)  
from older wireless standards to 802.11n. If a wirelessly networked device uses an older  
standard, the performance of the entire wireless network may be slower. If you are still  
experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices or installing  
additional access points.

default value of 2346 bytes. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result  
in poor performance.  
RTS Threshold – The Request To Send (RTS) function is part of the networking  
protocol. A wireless device that needs to send data will send a RTS before sending  
the data in question. The destination wireless device will send a response called  
Clear to Send (CTS). The RTS Threshold defines the smallest data packet size  
allowed to initiate the RTS/CTS function.  
Advanced wireless settings  
Wireless > Advanced  
These settings are advanced options that can be configured to change advanced  
wireless broadcast specifications. It is recommended that these settings remain set to  
their default values unless you are knowledgeable about the effects of changing these  
values. Changing these settings incorrectly can degrade performance.  
Default Value: 2346 (range: 256-2346)  
TX Burst: Allows the wireless Router to deliver better throughput in the same  
period and environment in order to increase speed.  
Short Preamble: Using a short (400ns) guard interval can increase throughput.  
However, it can also increase error rate in some installations, due to increased  
sensitivity to radio-frequency reflections. Select the option that works best for  
your installation.  
Multicast-to-Unicast: Some applications require multicast communication (also  
called IP multicast which is the delivery of information to a specific group of  
computers or devices in a single transmission) typically used in media streaming  
applications. Enable this feature when using application that requires multicast  
traffic.  
Beacon Interval: A beacon is a management frame used in wireless networks that  
transmitted periodically to announce the presence and provide information  
about the router’s wireless network. The interval is the amount time between  
each beacon transmission.  
Wireless Distribution System (WDS)  
Wireless > Basic  
Default Value:100 milliseconds (range: 25-1000)  
DTIM: A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening  
to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless router has buffered  
broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM  
with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to  
receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid  
settings are between 1 and 255.  
Fragment Threshold: Wireless frames can be divided into smaller units  
(fragments) to improve performance in the presence of RF interference and at  
the limits of RF coverage. Fragmentation will occur when frame size in bytes is  
greater than the Fragmentation Threshold. This setting should remain at its  
WDS or Wireless Distribution System allows your router to establish a wireless bridge  
connection to another access point. To use this feature the access point you want to  
connect has to also support WDS mode.

computer) connected directly to the modem. If your computer MAC address is already  
registered with your ISP and to prevent the re-provisioning and registration process of a  
new MAC address with your ISP, then you can clone the address (assign the registered  
MAC address of your previous device to your new router). If you want to use the MAC  
address from the previous device (computer or old router that directly connected to the  
modem, you should first determine the MAC address of the device or computer and  
manually enter it into your router using the clone MAC address feature.

QoS involves prioritization of network traffic. QoS can be targeted at a network  
interface, toward a given server or router's performance, or in terms of specific  
applications.  
1. Make the computer or network device (for which you are establishing a DMZ link) has  
a static IP address (or you can use the DHCP reservation feature to ensure the device  
has a fixed IP address) see “Set up DHCP reservationon page 28. Signing up for a  
Dynamic DNS service (outlined in the DDNS section) will provide identification of the  
router’s network from the Internet.

Special Applications  
Advanced > Special Application  
Special applications (also called port triggering) is typically used for online gaming  
applications or communication applications that require a range of ports or several  
ports to be dynamically opened on request to a device on your network. The router will  
wait for a request on a specific port or range of ports (or trigger port/port range) from a  
device on your network and once a request is detected by your router, the router will  
forward a single port or multiple ports (or incoming port/port range) to the device on  
your network. This feature is not typically used as most devices and routers currently  
use UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) to automatically configure your router to allow  
access for applications. See Enable/disable UPnP on your routeron page 38.

Advanced > Routing  
You may want set up your router to route computers or devices on your network to  
other local networks through other routers. Generally, different networks can be  
determined by the IP addressing assigned to those networks. Generally speaking and for  
the case of an example, your network may have 192.168.10.x IP addressing and another  
network may have 192.168.20.x IP addressing and because the IP addressing of these  
two networks are different, they are separate networks. In order to communicate  
between the two separate networks, static routing needs to be configured. Below is an  
example diagram where routing is needed for devices and computers on your network  
to access the other network.  
Add: Saves the static route.

Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, providing access to devices on  
your home or small office Local Area Network (such as IP Cameras) from the Internet  
requires setting up a Dynamic DNS service and entering the parameters into this  
management area. Dynamic DNS services allow your router to confirm its location to the  
given Dynamic DNS service, thereby providing the Dynamic DNS service with the ability  
to provide a virtual fixed IP address for your network. This means that even though your  
ISP is always changing your IP address, the Dynamic DNS service will be able to identify  
your network using a fixed address—one that can be used to view home IP Camera and  
other devices on your local area network.  
IPSec: Allows IPSec VPN passthrough to be used through your router
