2. Getting Start 2.1 LED Indicators The Power LED will be ON when the unit is powered up. The Link LED will be Blinking indicates a WLAN connection. 2.2 Install the 108Mbps Wireless Network USB Dongle 2.2.1 1. Utility Installation Before insert USB Dongle into the PC USB of your computer, please install the Utility Program first. Make sure that the 108Mbps Wireless Network USB Dongle is NOT inserted into the USB slot.
2. Turn on the computer. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM Drive. Please select “USB Dongle” and then click the “Install”. 3. InstallShield Wizard will automatically start. continue. Please click “Next” to If user wants to change the installation folder, press “Brower” to change the directory or press “Next” to continue.

4. Click “Finish” to finish the installation.
5. Restart computer to make the settings effective. 2.2.2 Driver Installation 1. After restarting the computer, insert the USB dongle into USB port. Few seconds later, there will be a window popup as the following picture.
2. Click “Continue Anyway” to keep installation going. 3. Click “Finish” to finish the driver of USB installation.
4. After installing the driver of USB, there will be another pop-up window as the following picture to guide you to keep installing the driver of USB Dongle. 5. Click “Continue Anyway” to keep installation going.
6. Click “Finish” to finish the driver of USB Dongle installation. 7. To make sure if the installation is successful, you could check it through the device management. 8. Once the installation is successful, a utility program icon will show on your desktop. To lunch the utility, just double click the icon.
3. Configuration 3.1 Link Information The default page is as below after you launch the Utility program. Status: Shows the SSID associated, which can be used to identify the wireless network. SSID: Shows current SSID, which must be the same for the wireless client and AP in order for communication to be established. Frequency: Shows the current frequency used for wireless network. Wireless Mode: Shows the current wireless mode used for wireless communication.
3.2 Configuration This is the page where you can change the basic settings of the Access Point with the minimum amount of effort to implement a secure wireless network environment. SSID: Service Set Identifier, which is a unique name shared among all clients and nodes in a wireless network. The SSID must be identical for each clients and nodes in the wireless network.
●Maximum Power Save – the USB Dongle consumes the least power and only operates when there is wireless network activity. ●Power Save – the USB Dongle consumes the moderate level of power. Preamble: Select Long or Short Preamble type. Preamble is a sequence of bits transmitted at 1Mbps that allows the PHY circuitry to reach steady-state demodulation and synchronization of bit clock and frame start.
Encryption: 4 options are available: Disable, Enable, WPA and WPA-PSK. Select Enable or Disable for WEP data encryption feature. If one of the two options is selected, it is required to select the Authentication mode from the next dropping list. If WPA is selected, configuration is enabled. Please click the “configuration”. The below window is pop up. Then, please select the certificate that user wants to use and enter the server name and login name If WPA-PSK is selected, click the configuration button.
– depend on the communication to establish, and automatically use the proper authentication mode. Auto The following will only be activated to allow for configuration when Encryption is enabled. Default Key: select one of the 4 keys to use. Network Key: choose the encryption way, either in HEX or ASCII formats, and enter the password in the blank space. Key Length: select 64 or 128 bits as the length of the keys Key Format: ASCII or HEX 3.
Remove: To remove the selected the profile Properties: To view and change its settings of the profile. Add: To add a profile. Then, the following screen would appear. 3.5 About US This page displays some information about the 108Mbps Wireless Network USB Dongle utility, which includes the version numbers for Driver, Firmware and Utility. When there is new version of software available for upgrade, you will be able to identify by version numbers.
4. Glossary Access Point: An internetworking device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless networks. Ad-Hoc: An independent wireless LAN network formed by a group of computers, each with a network adapter. AP Client: One of the additional AP operating modes offered by 54Mbps Access Point, which allows the Access Point to act as an Ethernet-to-Wireless Bridge, thus a LAN or a single computer station can join a wireless ESS network through it.
Bit: A binary digit, which is either -0 or -1 for value, is the smallest unit for data. Bridge: An internetworking function that incorporates the lowest 2 layers of the OSI network protocol model. Browser: An application program that enables one to read the content and interact in the World Wide Web or Intranet. BSS: BSS stands for “Basic Service Set”. It is an Access Point and all the LAN PCs that associated with it.
DSSS: Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum. DSSS generates a redundant bit pattern for each bit to be transmitted. This bit pattern is called a chip (or chipping code). The longer the chip, the greater the probability that the original data can be recovered. Even if one or more bits in the chip are damaged during transmission, statistical techniques embedded in the radio can recover the original data without the need for retransmission.
Gateway: a device that interconnects networks with different, incompatible communication protocols. HEX: Hexadecimal, HEX, consists of numbers from 0 – 9 and letters from A – F. IEEE: The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, which is the largest technical professional society that promotes the development and application of electrotechnology and allied sciences for the benefit of humanity, the advancement of the profession.
Preamble Type: During transmission, the PSDU shall be appended to a PLCP preamble and header to create the PPDU. Two different preambles and headers are defined as the mandatory supported long preamble and header which interoperates with the current 1 and 2 Mbit/s DSSS specification as described in IEEE Std 802.11-1999, and an optional short preamble and header. At the receiver, the PLCP preamble and header are processed to aid in demodulation and delivery of the PSDU.
Throughput: The amount of data transferred successfully from one point to another in a given period of time. WEP: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is an encryption scheme used to protect wireless data communication. To enable the icon will prevent other stations without the same WEP key from linking with the AP.
(05) Regulatory Section of User Manual The following wording will appear in the user manual provided with all products placed on the market in the European Community: Declaration of Conformity Marking by the above symbol indicates compliance with the Essential Requirements of the R&TTE Directive of the European Union (1999/5/EC).
