Configuring the 7811 Figure 9—Device Configuration 2. Change any of the following: • Device Name: Assigned name of the 7811 • Home Settings Protection: This feature prevents the home user’s settings from being overwritten by the Service Provider. When this is Enabled, the Service Provider can only change Service Provider specific settings, such as the Service Provider Username and Password.
Configuring the 7811 Customizing the System Configuration It is recommended that you customize the username and password so that you can control who can gain administrative access to the 7811. You may also wish to change the default IP address if it conflicts with another device in your wireless network. Refer to Table 5 for details on each field. ! CAUTION:—You must click the Update Settings button to save your settings. The Ruckus WebUI will timeout after 5 minutes of inactivity.
Configuring the 7811 Table 7 shows the Internet Configuration Parameters. Table 7—Internet Configuration Parameters Field Description Gateway This is the gateway IP address of the internet interface. Primary DNS Server This is the primary Domain Name System (DNS) server IP address. Secondary DNS Server This is the secondary Domain Name System (DNS) server IP address.
Configuring the 7811 Configuring the Wireless Settings Before changing any settings in the Wireless configuration menu, make sure you have recorded and verified the information in "7811 Default and User Settings Worksheet" on page 17. To configure the Wireless settings, do the following: 1. Go to Configuration > Wireless. Figure 11—Configuration :: Wireless tab 22 Ruckus Wireless MediaFlex 7811 Access Point 4Gon www.4Gon.co.uk info@4gon.co.
Configuring the 7811 Figure 12—Configuration :: Wireless :: Video WLAN tab 2. Under the Common tab, choose the Channel and Country Code as described in Table 8.

Configuring the 7811 Configuring WPA WPA PSK configuration menu allows automatic key generation based on a single passphrase. WPA-PSK provides very strong security, but may not be supported on older wireless systems (in some cases, the older wireless systems can be upgraded with the newer adapters to support WPA-PSK). If you configure the 7811 with WPA-PSK, the other devices in the network will not connect unless they, too are set to WPA-PSK, and are configured with the same passphrase.
Configuring the 7811 Table 11 explains the WPA Configuration parameters Table 11—WPA Algorithm Field Description WPA Version Choices are WPA, WPA2 or WPA Auto. When WPA-Auto is selected, the wireless client decides the version of WPA will be used. WPA is the recommended default for best compatibility. Wi-Fi WPA-capable PDAs and other gadgets are usually limited to WPA + TKIP. WPA2 is an advanced option.

Packing List Packing List Each 7111 is supplied with the following: • Ruckus Wireless MediaFlex 7111 Adapter • AC power adapter • Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable Placing the 7111 into Operation The 7111 connects to the set-top box or other media receiver while communicating wirelessly with the 7811. The 7811 already has a basic default configuration that can be used for auto-provisioning the adapter. Note that normally the 7111 is pre-configured for plug and play operation in the IPTV deployment.
Verifying Proper Provisioning Figure 38—LEDs Dome WAN Connectivity Wireless Device Association Power Signal Quality 13. Make sure you are using the power adapter supplied by Ruckus Wireless. 14. Make sure the Power LED is lit. If it is not lit, make sure that the power cord is properly connected to the 7111, and that the power supply adapter is properly connected to a functioning power outlet. If the error persists, you have a hardware problem and should contact technical support. 15.
What is Auto Provisioning? 3. Connect the CAT5 Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on your computer, and to the Ethernet port on the 7111. 4. On your PC, open a browser window. 5. Upon login, check the Status :: Wireless page to verify that the wireless status is up. If the status is down, then you have a connection problem between the 7811 and the 7111. You may need to reset the unit to factory defaults and perform auto provisioning with the 7811. 6. If necessary, reset the 7111 to its factory defaults.
What is Auto Provisioning? 7811 Parameters Included in Auto Provisioning The following 7811 parameters are synchronized over to the Adapter at the completion of the auto provisioning stage (Table 17): Table 17— 7811 Parameters Included in Auto Provisioning Parameter Description Country Code Configured country code for regulatory compliance SSID Configured Service Set Identifier Encryption mode Configured encryption mode status Cipher Configured security encryption cipher Passphrase Configured P
Adapter Management Adapter Management After setting up and provisioning your 7111 adapter, the 7111 can be configured to be managed via the Web user interface of the 7811. This adapter management enables a service provider to access and configure the 7111 without being physically local to the device. Adapter management also enables the 7111 to connect to the firmware server via NAT through the 7811.
Adapter Management 4. Click the STA WebServer link. A separate browser window opens to the 7111’s Web user interface login page. Note in Figure 40 the IP address of the login is identical to that of the 7811, with the exception of the port number ‘25401’ appended to the 7811’s IP address. Figure 40—Logging into the 7111 via adapter management 5. Login to the 7111 using the appropriate user name and password. You can now configure your 7111 adapter.
Adapter Management 8. Click Update Settings to save your settings. Figure 41—Disabling adapter management Enabling Adapter Management To enable adapter management, do the following: NOTE – With Release 4.2 and later, adapter management is enabled by default upon 7111 provisioning with the 7811. This procedure assumes that adapter management is currently disabled. 1. Connect a PC to the 7111’s Ethernet port. 2. If necessary, change the IP address of your PC to an address in the same subnet (192.168.2.
