Right after we connect to the web interface, we will be welcomed by the login screen:
The main interface seems unchanged from the one we have found with the TEW-818DRU and is split in two separate sections: Basic and Advanced. The Basic menu does come with the Network Status, Wireless, Guest Network, Parental Control and Qualcomm StreamBoost sub-sections. The Network Status menu does let us know on the current Internet connection status, the Guest Network details, connected USB devices, Wireless network details, but also the IS of the connected devices:
From the Basic Wireless Settings area, we will be able to configure both 2.4GHz and 5GHz interfaces, so it includes wireless mode selection, wireless network name, broadcast option, channel, channel width and security mode:
Guest Network comes with similar settings, but here we can also choose to prevent guests from accessing the local network and isolate the guests from each other for more security:
Parental Control settings are next:
The Qualcomm StreamBoost traffic shaping feature which comes with this router enables allocation of appropriate amount of Internet traffic bandwidth for each identified service; we will also need to enter up our upstream/downstream ISP details in order to activate this service:
The Advanced menu gives us more flexibility on the configuration and here will get to see other menus on the left side of the screen: Administrator, Setup, Wireless 2.4GHz, Wireless 5GHz, Security, Firewall and USB. From the Status sub-section of the Administrator menu we will be able to take a look at the current configuration and also see the WAN connection details:
IPv6 Connection Information is also offered next:
