SOHO users need a cost‐effective, easy and quick installation of a small network. y Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless LANs. y Wired LAN backup Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for mission‐critical applications running on wired networks.
2. Modes EOR7550 provides 2 separate radio channels for wider service area. Each of these 2 radio channels can be configured as different function mode separately. The device allows you to configure into different modes for different purposes in your network infrastructure. Each of these modes will have different setting. You are allowed to configure your radio channel freely with the following combination.
2.2. Client Bridge When in Client Bridge, EOR7550 will associate with nearby AP and sees the network device combination as a standard mobile unit (MU). The access point then forms a wireless bridge between the wired LAN and clients through EOR7550. 2.3. Client Router As Client Bridge mode, this allows your device to function as Client Bridge and Router as well. The device connection map can refer to 2.2 Client Bridge. 2.4.
3. Understanding the Hardware 3.1. Hardware Installation 1. Place the unit in an appropriate location after conducting a site survey. 2. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the Network port of the PoE injector and another end into your PC/Notebook. 3. Plug one end of another Ethernet cable to AP/Bridge port of the PoE injector and the other end into you cable/DSL modem (Internet) 4.
4. Web Configuration 4.1. System 4.1.1. Operation Mode You are allowed to configure your device into different modes for different purposes (Please see Chapter 2). 1. To start configuration, press Reset to purge the default setting. 2. All 3 drop down fields will be reset for new configuration. 3. Refers to table in Chapter 2 for further configuration.
