[. . . ] The default value is 1, which indicates the DTIM Interval is the same as Beacon Interval. Enable WMM - WMM function can guarantee the packets with high-priority messages being transmitted preferentially. Enable Short GI - This function is recommended for it will increase the data capacity by reducing the guard interval time. Enabled AP Isolation - This function can isolate wireless stations on your network from each other. Wireless devices will be able to communicate with the Router but not with each other. Note: If you are not familiar with the setting items in this page, it's strongly recommended to keep the provided default values; otherwise it may result in lower wireless network performance. 4. 6. 5 Wireless Statistics Choose menu "Wireless Wireless Statistics", you can see the MAC Address, Current Status, Received Packets and Sent Packets for each connected wireless station. Figure 4-23 Wireless Statistics MAC Address - The connected wireless station's MAC address Current Status - The connected wireless station's running status, one of STA-AUTH / STA-ASSOC / STA-JOINED / WPA / WPA-PSK / WPA2 / WPA2-PSK / AP-UP / AP-DOWN / Disconnected Received Packets - Packets received by the station Sent Packets - Packets sent by the station - 46 - TL-WR1043N/TL-WR1043ND Wireless N Gigabit Router You cannot change any of the values on this page.

Note: This page will be refreshed automatically every 5 seconds. 4. 7 DHCP Figure 4-24 The DHCP menu There are three submenus under the DHCP menu (shown in Figure 4-24), DHCP Settings, DHCP Clients List and Address Reservation. Click any of them, and you will be able to configure the corresponding function. 4. 7. 1 DHCP Settings Choose menu "DHCP DHCP Settings", you can configure the DHCP Server on the page as shown in Figure 4-25. The Router is set up by default as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server, which provides the TCP/IP configuration for all the PC(s) that are connected to the Router on the LAN. Figure 4-25 DHCP Settings DHCP Server - Enable or Disable the DHCP server. If you disable the Server, you must - 47 - TL-WR1043N/TL-WR1043ND Wireless N Gigabit Router have another DHCP server within your network or else you must configure the computer manually. Start IP Address - Specify an IP address for the DHCP Server to start with when assigning IP addresses. End IP Address - Specify an IP address for the DHCP Server to end with when assigning IP addresses. Address Lease Time - The Address Lease Time is the amount of time a network user will be allowed connection to the Router with their current dynamic IP Address. Enter the amount of time in minutes and the user will be "leased" this dynamic IP Address. After the time is up, the user will be automatically assigned a new dynamic IP address. Default Gateway - (Optional. ) It is suggested to input the IP address of the LAN port of the Router. Primary DNS - (Optional. ) Input the DNS IP address provided by your ISP or consult your ISP. Secondary DNS - (Optional. ) Input the IP address of another DNS server if your ISP provides two DNS servers. Note: To use the DHCP server function of the Router, you must configure all computers on the LAN as "Obtain an IP Address automatically". 4. 7. 2 DHCP Clients List Choose menu "DHCP DHCP Clients List", you can view the information about the clients attached to the Router in the screen as shown in Figure 4-26. Figure 4-26 DHCP Clients List Client Name - The name of the DHCP client MAC Address - The MAC address of the DHCP client Assigned IP - The IP address that the Router has allocated to the DHCP client - 48 - TL-WR1043N/TL-WR1043ND Wireless N Gigabit Router Lease Time - The time of the DHCP client leased. After the dynamic IP address has expired, a new dynamic IP address will be automatically assigned to the user. To update this page and to show the current attached devices, click the Refresh button. 4. 7. 3 Address Reservation Choose menu "DHCP Address Reservation", you can view and add a reserved address for clients via the next screen (shown in Figure 4-27). When you specify a reserved IP address for a PC on the LAN, that PC will always receive the same IP address each time when it accesses the DHCP server. [. . . ] And the following items available If the Router's LAN IP address is 192. 168. 1. 1, specify the IP address as 192. 168. 1. x (x is from 2 to 254), and the Subnet mask as 255. 255. 255. 0. 3 Type the Router's LAN IP address (the default IP is 192. 168. 1. 1) into the Default gateway field. In the Preferred DNS Server field you can enter the same value as the Default gateway or type the local DNS server IP address. - 103 - TL-WR1043N/TL-WR1043ND Wireless N Gigabit Router Now: Click OK to keep your settings. - 104 - TL-WR1043N/TL-WR1043ND Wireless N Gigabit Router Appendix C: Specifications General Standards Protocols Ports IEEE 802. 3, 802. 3u, 802. 11b, 802. 11g and 802. 11n (draft 2. 0) TCP/IP, PPPoE, DHCP, ICMP, NAT, SNTP One 10/100/1000M Auto-Negotiation WAN RJ45 port, Four 10/100/1000M Auto-Negotiation LAN RJ45 ports supporting Auto MDI/MDIX, One USB port 10BASE-T: UTP category 3, 4, 5 cable (maximum 100m) EIA/TIA-568 100 STP (maximum 100m) Cabling Type 100BASE-TX: UTP category 5, 5e cable (maximum 100m) EIA/TIA-568 100 STP (maximum 100m) 1000BASE-T: UTP category5, 5e cable (maximum 100m) EIA/TIA-568 100 STP (maximum 100m) LEDs Safety & Emissions Wireless Frequency Band Radio Data Rate Channels Frequency Expansion Modulation Security 2. 4~2. 4835GHz 11nup to 300MbpsAutomatic 11g54/48/36/24/18/12/9/6MbpsAutomatic 11b11/5. 5/2/1MbpsAutomatic 13 DSSS(Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum) DBPSK, DQPSK, CCK, OFDM, 16-QAM, 64-QAM WEP/WPA/WPA2/WPA2-PSK/WPA-PSK 270M: -68dBm@10% PER; 130M: -68dBm@10% PER 108M: -68dBm@10% PER; 54M: -68dBm@10% PER 11M: -85dBm@8% PER; 6M: -88dBm@10% PER 1M: -90dBm@8% PER 20dBm(max) 3dBi * 3 Operating : Storage: Operating: Storage: 0~40 (32~104) -40~70(-40~158) 10% - 90% RH, Non-condensing 5% - 90% RH, Non-condensing Power, System, WLAN, WAN, LAN (1-4), USB , QSS FCC, CE Sensitivity @PER RF Power Antenna Gain Environmental and Physical Temperature.
