3. Getting started
The ASUS WL-530gV2 Pocket Wireless Router meets various working scenarios with proper
configuration. The default settings of the wireless router may change to meet your individual
needs. Thus, before using the wireless router, check the basic settings to ensure that they all
work in your environment.
Note: We recommend wired connection for the initial configuration to avoid possible
setup problems due to wireless uncertainty.
1) Wired connection
An Ethernet cable is bundled with your WL-530gV2 package. The wireless router has an
integrated auto-crossover function. Use either a straight-through or a crossover cable for
wired connection. Plug one end of the cable to the LAN port at the rear panel of the router
and the other end to the Ethernet port on your PC.
2) Wireless connection
For establishing wireless connection, you need an IEEE 802.11g/b compatible WLAN card.
Refer to the user manual of your WLAN card for the wireless connection procedures. By
default, the SSID of the wireless router is “default” (in lower case), encryption is disabled, and
open system authentication is used.
• IP address: 192.168.1.1
• Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

If you are using ADSL or other connection
type that uses static IP address, select
ADSL or other connection type that
uses static IP address. Key in the
IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway provided by your ISP. You
can specify DNS servers, or get DNS
information automatically.
3. After the connection type setting is
completed, set up your wireless interface.
Specify to your wireless router an
SSID (Service Set Identifier), which is
a unique identifier attached to packets
sent over WLAN. This identifier emulates
a password when a device attempts to
communicate with your wireless router via
WLAN.
If you want to protect transmitted data, select either of the Security Level below to enable
the encryption methods:
Medium: Only users with the same WEP key settings can connect to your wireless router
and transmit data using the 64bits or 128bits WEP key encryption.
High: Only users with the same WPA pre-shared key settings can connect to your wireless
router and transmit data using the TKIP or AES encryption.
4. Key in four sets of WEP keys in the WEP
Key fields (10 hexadecimal digits for WEP
64bits, 26 hexadecimal digits for WEP
128bits). For system-generated keys,
key in a Passphrase. Take note of the
Passphrase and WEP keys, then click
Finish.
For example, if you select the WEP
64bits encryption mode and key in 11111
as the Passphrase, the WEP Keys are
generated automatically.
6. To connect the wireless router from a wireless client, you can use Windows® Wireless
Zero Configuration service to set up the connection. If you use an ASUS WLAN card on
your computer, you can use the One Touch Wizard utility supplied in the WLAN Card
Support CD for wireless connection.

Authentication
The authentication methods supported by WL-530gV2 include: Open System or
Share Key, Shared Key, and WPA/WPA2-PSK.
Open System or Shared Key: This method allows you to disable authentication
protection for your wireless network or use the WEP keys to protect your wireless
network.
Shared Key: This method uses the WEP keys to protect your wireless network.
WPA/WPA2-PSK: WPA stands for WiFi-Protected Access. WPA-PSK is for home
and SOHO users. It provides Pre-Shared Key (PSK) for user identification. The
Pre-Shared Key consists of 8 to 64 characters.
When authentication and encryption are set, click Finish to save the settings and
restart the wireless router.

WL-530gV2 Pocket Wireless Router User Manual
Encryption
The encryption modes supported by WL-530gV2 are: WEP-64bits, WEP-128bits,
TKIP, and AES.
WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It uses 64bits or 128bits static keys
to encrypt the data for wireless transmission. To set up WEP keys, set WEP
Encryption to WEP-64bits or WEP-128bits, then manually key in four sets of
WEP Keys (10 hexadecimal digits for 64-bits keys or 26 hexadecimal digits for
128-bits keys). You can also let the system generate the keys by keying in a
Passphrase.
TKIP stands for Temporal Key Integrity Protocol. TKIP dynamically generates
unique keys to encrypt every data packet in a wireless session.
AES stands for Advanced Encryption Standard. This solution offers stronger
protection and increases the complexity of wireless encryption.

4) Setting up DDNS
DNS enables host who uses static IP address to associate with a domain name;
for dynamic IP users, they can also associate with a domain name via dynamic
DNS (DDNS). DDNS requires registering and account-creating at DDNS service
providers' website. The DDNS server updates your IP address information once
you are assigned to a new IP address. Thus, the Internet user can always access
your network.
To set up DDNS:

Licensing information
This product includes copyrighted third-party software licensed under the terms of the GNU
General Public License. Please see The GNU General Public License for the exact terms
and conditions of this license. We include a copy of the GPL with every CD shipped with our
product. All future firmware updates will also be accompanied with their respective source
code. Please visit our web site for updated information. Note that we do not offer direct
support for the distribution.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change
it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s software and to
any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation
software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public
Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free
software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and
that you know you can do these things.
23
WL-530gV2 Pocket Wireless Router User Manual
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you
these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain
responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must
give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or
can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license
which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone
understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by
someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the
original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors’
reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the
danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect
making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must
be licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
24
WL-530gV2 Pocket Wireless Router User Manual
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains
or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge
to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must
cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print
or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that
there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may
redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy
of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print
such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an
announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that
work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent
and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the
whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend
to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written
entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of
derivative or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program
(or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium
does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object
code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you
also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily
used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party,
for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a
complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute
corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial
distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with
such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications
to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all
modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception,
the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either
source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General
Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present
version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a
version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the
option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version
published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version
number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution
conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation;
we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the
sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY
AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM
PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY
MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE
THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR
A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN
IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES.
