Introduction  
EN  
SNB6500  
Thank you for purchasing the Philips Wireless Router. This Philips Wireless Router is  
a WiFi (IEEE 802.11b/g) compatible device. It fully supports high data rates up to 108  
Mbps with automatic fallback to lower speeds for secure operation at lower data  
rates in even the most difficult of wireless environments.  
In this manual we will expand on how to install, configure, and use your Philips  
Wireless Router.  
This chapter will give you background information on wireless networks and their  
security in general.  
What are wireless network connections?  
Your Wireless Router uses a wireless protocol (called IEEE 802.11b/g or WiFi) to  
communicate with other network computers by means of radio transmissions. WiFi  
radio waves travel outwards from the antenna in all directions, and can transmit  
through walls and floors. Wireless transmissions can theoretically reach up to  
450 meters in an open environment and reach speeds of up to 108 Megabits per  
second (Mbps) at close range. However, the actual network range and data  
throughput rate will be less, depending on the wireless link quality.  
Factors determining your network range and network  
speed  
The environment: Radio signals can travel further outside of buildings, and if the  
wireless components are in direct line of sight to one another. Putting wireless  
components in high places helps avoid physical obstacles and provides better  
coverage.  
Building construction such as metal framing and concrete or masonry walls and  
floors will reduce radio signal strength. Avoid putting wireless components next  
to walls and other large, solid objects; or next to large metal objects such as  
computers, monitors, and appliances.  
Wireless signal range, speed, and strength can be affected by interference from  
neighbouring wireless networks and devices. Electro-magnetic devices such as  
televisions, radios, microwave ovens, and cordless phones, especially those with  
frequencies in the 2.4 GHz range, may also interfere with wireless transmission.  
Standing or sitting too close to wireless equipment can also affect radio signal  
quality.  
Adjusting the antenna: Do not place antennas next to large pieces of metal,  
because this might cause interference.  
Securing your wireless network  
As wireless computer networks use radio signals, it is possible for other wireless  
network devices outside your immediate area to pick up the wireless signals and  
either connect to your network or to capture the network traffic.Therefore, you  
should always enable the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or WiFi Protected Access  
(WPA/WPA2) network encryption key to help prevent unauthorised connections  
or the possibility of eavesdroppers listening in on your network traffic.  
For an example of how to secure your network, please see the chapter on Securing  
your wireless network.

WDS  
If the signal strength of a single Wireless Router is not sufficient due to a large  
coverage area or attenuation due to walls, with WDS the range of a Wireless Router  
can be extended.  
All Routers in a Wireless Distribution System must be configured with the same  
radio channel, and encryption type (WEP / WPA/WPA2) if that is used.  
Note: The WDS feature is not completely specified in IEEE or Wifi standards. Therefore it  
cannot be guaranteed that WDS will work with products of different vendors.  
WEP  
If you use WEP to protect your wireless network, you need to set the same  
parameters for the Wireless Router and all your wireless clients.  
You may automatically generate encryption keys or manually enter the keys. To  
generate the key automatically with passphrase, check the Passphrase box, enter a  
string of characters. Select the default key from the drop down menu. Click ‘SAVE  
SETTINGS’.  
Note: The passphrase can consist of up to 32 alphanumeric characters.  
To manually configure the encryption key, enter five hexadecimal pairs of digits for  
each 64-bit key, or enter 13 pairs for the single 128-bit key.  
(A hexadecimal digit is a number or letter in the range 0-9 or A-F.)  
Note that WEP protects data transmitted between wireless nodes, but does not  
protect any transmissions over your wired network or over the Internet.  
WPA/WPA2  
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) combines temporal key integrity protocol  
(TKIP) and 802.1x mechanisms. It provides dynamic key encryption and 802.1x  
authentication service.  
802.1X  
If 802.1x is used in your network, then you should enable this function for the  
Wireless Router. These parameters are used for the Wireless Router to connect to  
the authentication server.

Security  
Firewall  
The Wireless Router’s firewall inspects packets at the application layer, maintains  
TCP and UDP session information including time-outs and the number of active  
sessions, and provides the ability to detect and prevent certain types of network  
attacks.  
Network attacks that deny access to a network device are called Denial-of-Service  
(DoS) attacks. DoS attacks are aimed at devices and networks with a connection to  
the Internet. Their goal is not to steal information, but to disable a device or network  
so users no longer have access to network resources.  
The Wireless Router firewall function protects against the following DoS attacks: IP  
Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port  
loopback, Snork Attack, TCP null scan, and TCP SYN flooding.  
The firewall does not significantly affect system performance, so we advise leaving it  
enabled to protect your network. Select Enable and click the ‘SAVE SETTINGS’  
button to open the Firewall submenus.  
Access Control  
Access Control allows users to define the outgoing traffic permitted or not-permitted  
through the WAN interface. The default is to permit all outgoing traffic.  
To add the PC to the filtering table:

Click ‘OK’ and then click ‘SAVE SETTINGS’ to save your settings.  
MAC Filter  
The Wireless Router can also limit the network access based on the MAC address.  
The MAC Filtering Table allows the Wireless Router to enter up to 32 MAC  
addresses that are not allowed access to the WAN port.

Click Yes to enable, or No to disable this function.  
Enter the MAC address in the space provided and click ‘Save Settings’ to confirm.  
URL Blocking  
The Wireless Router allows the user to block access to web sites by entering either  
a full URL address or just a keyword. This feature can be used to protect children  
from accessing violent or pornographic web sites.  
You can define up to 30 sites here.

Schedule Rule  
You may filter Internet access for local clients based on rules. Each access control  
rule may be activated at a scheduled time. Define the time schedule on this page, and  
apply the rule on the Access Control page.  
Intrusion Detection  
Intrusion Detection Feature  
Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) and Anti-DoS firewall protection  
(Default: Enabled) - The Intrusion Detection Feature of the Wireless Router limits  
access for incoming traffic at the WAN port. When the SPI feature is turned on, all  
incoming packets will be blocked except for those types marked in the Stateful Packet  
Inspection section.  
RIP Defect (Default: Disabled) - If an RIP request packet is not acknowledged to by  
the router, it will stay in the input queue and not be released. Accumulated packets  
could cause the input queue to fill, causing severe problems for all protocols. Enabling  
this feature prevents the packets from accumulating.  
Discard Ping to WAN (Default: Disabled) - Prevent a ping on the Wireless Router’s  
WAN port from being routed to the network.  
Scroll down to view more information.  
Stateful Packet Inspection  
This is called a ‘stateful’ packet inspection because it examines the contents of the  
packet to determine the state of the communications; i.e., it ensures that the stated  
destination computer has previously requested the current communication. This is a  
way of ensuring that all communications are initiated by the recipient computer and  
are taking place only with sources that are known and trusted from previous  
interactions. In addition to being more rigorous in their inspection of packets, stateful  
inspection firewalls also close off ports until connection to the specific port is  
requested.  
When particular types of traffic are checked, only the particular type of traffic  
initiated from the internal LAN will be allowed. For example, if the user only checks  
‘FTP Service’ in the Stateful Packet Inspection section, all incoming traffic will be  
blocked except for FTP connections initiated from the local LAN.  
Stateful Packet Inspection allows you to select different application types that are  
using dynamic port numbers. If you wish to use the Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) to  
block packets, click on the Yes radio button in the ‘Enable SPI and Anti-DoS firewall  
protection’ field and then check the inspection type that you need, such as  
Packet Fragmentation, TCP Connection, UDP Session, FTP Service, H.323 Service,  
or TFTP Service.  
When hackers attempt to enter your network, the SNB6500 can alert you  
by e-mail  
If the mail server needs to authenticate your identification before sending out any  
e-mail, please fill related information in POP3 server, username and password fields.  
Otherwise leave the three fields blank.  
Connection Policy  
Enter the appropriate values for TCP/UDP sessions as described in the following  
table.  
Note: The firewall does not significantly affect system performance, so we advise enabling  
the prevention features to protect your network.  
DMZ  
If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind  
the firewall, you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access.  
Enter the IP address of a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host on this screen. Adding a  
client to the DMZ may expose your local network to a variety of security risks, so  
only use this option as a last resort.

WDS  
If the signal strength of a single Wireless Router is not sufficient due to a large  
coverage area or attenuation due to walls, with WDS the range of a Wireless Router  
can be extended.  
All Routers and wireless range extenders (i.e. SNR 6500) in a Wireless Distribution  
System must be configured with the same radio channel, and encryption type (WEP /  
WPA/WPA2) if that is used.  
Note: The WDS feature is not completely specified in IEEE or Wifi standards. Therefore it  
cannot be guaranteed that WDS will work with products of different vendors.  
WEP  
If you use WEP to protect your wireless network, you need to set the same  
parameters for the Wireless Router and all your wireless clients.  
You may automatically generate encryption keys or manually enter the keys.  
To generate the key automatically with passphrase, check the Passphrase box, enter a  
string of characters. Select the default key from the drop down menu. Click ‘SAVE  
SETTINGS’.  
Note: The passphrase can consist of up to 32 alphanumeric characters.  
To manually configure the encryption key, enter five hexadecimal pairs of digits for  
each 64-bit key, or enter 13 pairs for the single 128-bit key.  
(A hexadecimal digit is a number or letter in the range 0-9 or A-F.)  
Note that WEP protects data transmitted between wireless nodes, but does not  
protect any transmissions over your wired network or over the Internet.  
WPA/WPA2  
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) combines Temporal Key Integrity Protocol  
(TKIP) and 802.1x mechanisms. It provides dynamic key encryption and  
802.1x authentication service.  
802.1X  
If 802.1x is used in your network, then you should enable this function for the  
Wireless Router. These parameters are used for the Wireless Router to connect to  
the authentication server.

NAT  
Network Address Translation allows multiple users to access the Internet sharing one  
public IP.  
Address Mapping  
Allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users. This  
also hides the internal network for increased privacy and security. Enter the Public IP  
address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter a range of internal IPs that  
will share the global IP into the ‘from’ field.  
Virtual Server  
If you configure the Wireless Router as a virtual server, remote users accessing  
services such as web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be  
automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In  
other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the  
Wireless Router redirects the external service request to the appropriate server  
(located at another internal IP address).  
For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the Private  
IP/Port to 192.168.1.10/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users will be  
transferred to 192.168.1.10 on port 80. Therefore, by just entering the IP address  
provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at the local  
address to which you redirect them.  
A list of ports is maintained at the following link:  
Special Applications  
Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet gaming, video-  
conferencing, and Internet telephony.  
These applications may not work when Network Address Translation (NAT) is  
enabled. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, use these  
pages to specify the additional public ports to be opened for each application.

UPNP (Universal Plug and Play) settings  
With Universal Plug and Play, a device can automatically dynamically join a network,  
obtain an IP address, communicate its capabilities, and learn about the presence and  
capabilities of other devices. Devices can then directly communicate with each other.  
This further enables peer-to-peer networking  
DDNS (Dynamic DNS) settings  
DDNS text ‘Domain Name’ is a series of alphanumeric strings separated by periods  
that maps to the address of a network connection and identifies the owner of the  
address.  
Dynamic DNS provides users on the Internet with a method to tie their domain  
name to a computer or server. DDNS allows your domain name to follow your IP  
address automatically by having your DNS records changed when your IP address  
changes.  
The Server Configuration section automatically opens the TCP port options checked  
in the Virtual Server section. Simply enter in the IP Address of your server, such as a  
web server, and then click on the port option HTTP Port 80 so users can access  
your web server from the Internet connection.  
This DNS feature is powered by a DDNS service provider. With a DDNS connection  
you can host your own web site, email server, FTP site, and more at your own  
location even if you have a dynamic IP address. (Default: Disable)  
Routing  
These pages define routing related parameters, including static routes and RIP  
(Routing Information Protocol) parameters.  
Static route parameter  
1
Click ‘Add’ to add a new static route to the list.  
2
Click ‘Save Settings’ to save the configuration.  
RIP parameter  
RIP sends routing-update messages at regular intervals and when the network  
topology changes. When a router receives a routing update that includes changes to  
an entry, it updates its routing table to reflect the new route. RIP routers maintain  
only the best route to a destination.  
After updating its routing table, the router immediately begins transmitting routing  
updates to inform other network routers of the change.

Glossary of terms  
EN  
DHCP  
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol automatically configures the  
TCP/IP settings of every computer on your home network.  
DNS Server Address  
DNS stands for Domain Name System, which allows Internet host computers to have  
a domain name and one or more IP addresses. A DNS server keeps a database of  
host computers and their respective domain names and IP addresses, so that when a  
domain name is requested, the user is sent to the proper IP address. The DNS  
server address used by the computers on your home network is the location of the  
DNS server your ISP has assigned.  
DSL Modem  
Ethernet  
HPNA  
DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line.  
A DSL modem uses your existing phone lines to transmit data at high speeds.  
A standard for computer networks. Ethernet networks are connected by special  
cables and hubs, and move data around at up to 10 million bits per second (Mbps).  
Home Phone Line Networking Alliance, which is an association of corporations  
(including ) working to ensure the adoption of a single, unified phone line networking  
standard. Your Home Connect home network gateway is compliant with HPNA  
Specification 2.0, which allows networking speeds of up to 1 million bits per second  
(Mbps) using your existing home phone lines.  
IP Address  
IP stands for Internet Protocol.  
An IP address consists of a series of four numbers separated by periods, that  
identifies an single, unique Internet computer host. Example: 192.34.45.8.  
ISP Gateway Address  
(see ISP for definition)  
The ISP Gateway Address is an IP address for the Internet router located at the  
ISP’s office. This address is required only when using a cable or DSL modem.  
ISP  
Internet Service Provider. An ISP is a business that provides connectivity to the  
Internet for individuals and other businesses or organizations.  
LAN  
Local Area Network.  
A LAN is a group of computers and devices connected together in a relatively small  
area (such as a house or an office). Your home network is considered a LAN.  
MAC Address  
NAT  
MAC stands for Media Access Control.  
A MAC address is the hardware address of a device connected to a network.  
Network Address Translation. This process allows all of the computers on your  
home network to use one IP address. Using the NAT capability of the Home  
Connect home network gateway, you can access the Internet from any computer on  
your home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP.  
PPPoE  
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet.  
Point-to-Point Protocol is a method of secure data transmission originally created for  
dial-up connections; PPPoE is for Ethernet connections.  
RJ-45  
Registered Jack-45, 8 wire connector  
Secondary Dial-Up  
A secondary dial-up phone number is used by your ISP in case your primary dial-up  
number has too many other customers accessing it. The secondary dial-up phone  
number will be used if your primary dial-up phone number cannot be accessed.  
SPI  
Stateful Packet Inspection. SPI is the type of corporate-grade Internet security  
provided by your Home Connect home network gateway. Using SPI, the gateway acts  
as a “firewall”, protecting your network from computer hackers.  
Subnet Mask  
A subnet mask, which may be a part of the TCP/IP information provided by your ISP,  
is a set of four numbers configured like an IP address. It is used to create IP address  
numbers used only within a particular network (as opposed to valid IP address  
numbers recognized by the Internet, which must assigned by InterNIC).  
TCP/IP  
WAN  
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol.  
This is the standard protocol for data transmission over the Internet.  
Wide Area Network.  
A network that connects computers located in geographically separate areas,  
(i.e., different buildings, cities, countries). The Internet is a wide area network.
