CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION BEFORE YOU BEGIN Thank you and congratulations on your purchase of the ESTeem Model 195Eg Wireless Ethernet Radio Modem! This manual was written to help both the first time and advanced user of the 195Eg configure the radio modem for your application. If this your first time configuring the 195Eg and you would like to get going as soon as possible, we recommend using the 195Eg Quick Start Guide provided with the modem.
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION MODEL 195Eg CONFIGURATION MODES The Model 195Eg can be configured for multiple modes of operation without any changes to the hardware: Access Point Modes 1. Access Point Bridge Mode. When the Model 195Eg is configured as an Access Point it will provide a wireless bridge from a hardwired Local Area Network (LAN) to laptops, office computers, Personal Digital Assistants (PDA’s), video cameras, PLC’s, etc. that have integral or external 802.11g or 802.
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION be rejected similar to the operation of a “firewall”. The 195Eg will hide all the IP addresses connected on the wireless link. You should use this mode of operation if Model 195Eg is connected directly to the Internet with a static IP address (DSL, T1, etc.) and you want the wireless clients to access the information through the Model 195Eg (Figure 3).
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Point Router mode, the wireless and wired Ethernet networks will need to be on separate subnets. To communicate from wireless network to devices on the wired Station Router network, a separate router (connected to the Ethernet side of the Access Point) is required.
