Chapter 1 Introduction AR-5313u is an 802.11n (300Mbps) Wireless ADSL2+ router comprising four 10/100 Base-T Ethernet ports, a Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)/ Wi-Fi switch button, a USB Host, and is backward compatible with existing 802.11b (11Mbps) and 11g (54bps) equipment. The AR-5313u ADSL2+ router provides state of the art security features such as 64/128 bit WEP encryption and WPA/WPA2 encryption, Firewall, and VPN pass through.
Chapter 2 Installation 2.1 Hardware Setup Non-stackable This device is not stackable – do not place units on top of each other, otherwise damage could occur. Follow the instructions below to complete the hardware setup. BACK PANEL The figure below shows the back panel of the device. DSL Connect to the DSL port with the DSL RJ11 cable. LAN (Ethernet) Ports You can connect the router to up to four LAN devices using RJ45 cables.
Power ON Press the power button to the OFF position (OUT). Connect the power adapter to the power port. Attach the power adapter to a wall outlet or other AC source. Press the power button to the ON position (IN). If the Power LED displays as expected then the device is ready for setup (see section – LED Indicators). Caution 1: If the device fails to power up, or it malfunctions, first verify that the power cords are connected securely and then power it on again.
2.2 Front Panel The front panel LED indicators are shown below and explained in the following table. This information can be used to check the status of the device and its connections. LED Color Green Mode On The device is powered up. Off The device is powered down. On POST (Power On Self Test) failure or other malfunction. A malfunction is any error of internal sequence or state that will prevent the device from connecting to the DSLAM or passing customer data. On An Ethernet Link is established.
Note: A malfunction is any error of internal sequence or state that will prevent the device from connecting to the DSLAM or passing customer data. This may be identified at various times such after power on or during operation through the use of self testing or in operations which result in a unit state that is not expected or should not occur.
Chapter 3 Web User Interface This section describes how to access the device via the web user interface (WUI) using an Internet browser such as Internet Explorer (version 5.0 and later). 3.1 Default Settings The factory default settings of this device are summarized below. LAN IP address: 192.168.1.1 LAN subnet mask: 255.255.255.
STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings. If you experience difficulty with DHCP mode, you can try static IP mode instead.
STATIC IP MODE In static IP mode, you assign IP settings to your PC manually. Follow these steps to configure your PC IP address to use subnet 192.168.1.x. NOTE: The following procedure assumes you are running Windows. However, the general steps involved are similar for most operating systems (OS). Check your OS support documentation for further details.
3.3 Login Procedure Perform the following steps to login to the web user interface. NOTE: The default settings can be found in 3.1 Default Settings. STEP 1: Start the Internet browser and enter the default IP address for the device in the Web address field. For example, if the default IP address is 192.168.1.1, type http://192.168.1.1. NOTE: For local administration (i.e. LAN access), the PC running the browser must be attached to the Ethernet, and not necessarily to the device. For remote access (i.e.

5.4 Wireless 5.4.1 Basic The Basic option allows you to configure basic features of the wireless LAN interface. Among other things, you can enable or disable the wireless LAN interface, hide the network from active scans, set the wireless network name (also known as SSID) and restrict the channel set based on country requirements. Click Apply/Save to apply the selected wireless options. Consult the table below for descriptions of these options.
Option Description Hide Access Point Select Hide Access Point to protect the access point from detection by wireless active scans. If the access point is hidden, it will not be listed or listed with empty SSID in the scan result of wireless stations. To connect a client to a hidden access point, the station must add the access point manually to its wireless configuration. Clients Isolation When enabled, it prevents client PCs from seeing one another in My Network Places or Network Neighborhood.
5.4.2 Security The following screen appears when Wireless Security is selected. The options shown here allow you to configure security features of the wireless LAN interface. Click Apply/Save to implement new configuration settings. WIRELESS SECURITY Setup requires that the user configure these settings using the Web User Interface (see the table below). Select SSID Select the wireless network name from the drop-down box. SSID stands for Service Set Identifier.
Each authentication type has its own settings. For example, selecting 802.1X authentication will reveal the RADIUS Server IP address, Port and Key fields. WEP Encryption will also be enabled as shown below. The settings for WPA authentication are shown below. The settings for WPA-PSK authentication are shown next.
WEP Encryption This option specifies whether data sent over the network is encrypted. The same network key is used for data encryption and network authentication. Four network keys can be defined although only one can be used at any one time. Use the Current Network Key list box to select the appropriate network key. Security options include authentication and encryption services based on the wired equivalent privacy (WEP) algorithm. WEP is a set of security services used to protect 802.
5.5 Parental Control This selection provides WAN access control functionality. 5.5.1 Time Restriction This feature restricts access from a LAN device to an outside network through the device on selected days at certain times. Make sure to activate the Internet Time server synchronization as described in section 8.5 Internet Time, so that the scheduled times match your local time. Click Add to display the following screen. See below for field descriptions. Click Apply/Save to add a time restriction.

Insert USB drive to the USB host port on the back of router. Modify media library path to the corresponding path of the USB drive and click Apply/Save to enable the DLNA media server.
5.6.3 Storage Service This page displays storage devices attached to USB host. Display after storage device attached (for your reference).
Chapter 6 Advanced Setup You can reach this page by clicking on the following icon located at the top of the screen. 6.1 Auto-detection setup The auto-detection function is used for CPE to detect WAN service for either ETHWAN or xDSL interface. The feature is designed for the scenario that requires only one WAN service in different applications. The Auto Detection page simply provides a checkbox allowing users to enable or disable the feature.
Enter the PPP username/password given by your service provider for PPP service detection. Select a LAN-as-WAN Ethernet port for auto-detect: Select the Ethernet Port that will be used as ETHWAN during auto-detection.
WAN services list for ATM mode: A maximum of 7 WAN services with corresponding PVC are required to be configured for ADSL ATM mode. The services will be detected in order. Users can modify the 7 pre-configured services and select disable to ignore any of those services to meet their own requirement and also reduce the detection cycle.
Options for each WAN service: These options are selectable for each WAN service. Users can pre-configure both WAN services and other provided settings to meet their deployed requirements. Auto Detection status and Restart The Auto-detection status is used to display the real time status of the Auto-detection feature. The Restart button is used to detect all the WAN services that are either detected by the auto-detection feature or configured manually by users.
3) For cases in which both the DSL port and ETHWAN port are plugged in at the same time, the DSL WAN will have priority over ETHWAN. For example, the ETHWAN port is plugged in with a WAN service detected automatically and then the DSL port is plugged in and linked up. The Auto Detection feature will clear the WAN service for ETHWAN and re-detect the WAN service for DSL port. 4) If none of the pre-configured services are detected, a Bridge service will be created.
6.2 Security To display this function, you must enable the firewall feature in WAN Setup. For detailed descriptions, with examples, please consult Appendix A - Firewall. 6.2.1 IP Filtering This screen sets filter rules that limit IP traffic (Outgoing/Incoming). Multiple filter rules can be set and each applies at least one limiting condition. For individual IP packets to pass the filter all conditions must be fulfilled. NOTE: This function is not available when in bridge mode.
