Dual	Access	(for	Russia	only)
There  are  two  main  steps  to  configure  a  Dual  Access  Internet  connection  for  Russia.  First,  configure  a  PPPoE  connection  (as  previously 
described  for  PPPoE  connections),  and  add  the  physical  WAN  IP  settings  as  instructed  from  the  ISP.  Second,  configure  a  PPTP  connection 
(as  previously  described  for  PPTP  connections).  In  addition,  the  second  step  also  includes  an  option  to  use  a  MAC  address  that  will  always 
be associated with the connection. The MAC address is entered manually or copied from the computer.

checkbox,  click  either  Generate  New  PIN or Reset  PIN  to 
Default,  and  then  configure  the Wi-Fi  settings  below.  Please 
see  the  Setting  Up  Wi-Fi  Protection  ( WCN  2.0  in  Windows 
Vista)  section  later  in  this  manual  for  detailed  configuration 
information. 
Check  the  box  to  enable  the  wireless  function.  If  you  do 
not  want  to  use  wireless,  uncheck  the  box  to  disable  all  the 
wireless functions.
Ser vice  Set  Identifier  (SSID)  is  the  name  of  your  wireless 
network .  Create  a  name  using  up  to  32  charac ters.  The 
SSID is case-sensitive.
Indicates  the  channel  setting  for  the  DIR-600.  By  default 
the  channel  is  set  to  6.  The  Channel  can  be  changed  to 
fit  the  channel  setting  for  an  existing  wireless  network  or 
to  customize  the  wireless  network.  The  Auto  Channel 
Selection   setting  can  be  selected  to  allow  the  DIR-600  to 
choose the channel with the least amount of interference.
Use  the  drop-down  menu  to  select  the  appropriate  Transmission  Rate  in  Mbits  per  second.  Many  users  will  want  to  use  the 
default setting, Best (automatic).
Enable  Wi-Fi  Multimedia  to  enjoy  basic  quality  of  service  features.  WMM  prioritizes  traffic  according  to  four  access  categories: 
voice, video, best effort, and background. 
Check  this  option  if  you  would  not  like  the  SSID  of  your  wireless  network  to  be  broadcasted  by  the  DIR-600.  If  this  option  is 
checked,  the  SSID  of  the  DIR-600  will  not  be  seen  by  Site  Survey  utilities  so  your  wireless  clients  will  have  to  know  the  SSID 
of your DIR-600 in order to connect to it.
