CHAPTER 1 Are You a Wi-Fi Hotspot Operator? Then you’ll appreciate learning about your new Ruckus Wireless hotspot access point, before you get started. What can a Hotspot Access Point do for you? You’re occupying a large space, with lots of users, and you’d like to make it a Wi-Fi hotzone. Let’s make it easy for you; there’s an active Internet connection from a local ISP (DSL, cable or other), and you’ve got a modem—as shown here.
Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex 2925/2942 User Guide | Are You a Wi-Fi Hotspot Operator? Is there a switch connected to the modem? If not, you’ll need to hook one up to your modem—as shown below. FIGURE 1-2 After preparing the Ruckus Wireless AP for network use, you can place it (as shown below) where it can broadcast the strongest signal to as many users as possible. FIGURE 1-3 As the picture suggests, you should mount it high on the wall or on the ceiling.
Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex 2925/2942 User Guide | Are You a Wi-Fi Hotspot Operator? Where exactly should you place the Access Point? After you’ve prepared the AP for network hotspot connections, you should place it in the most strategic place in your work/business site. That means two things: • You want the AP as “visible” as possible to as many potential users, and • You don’t want it near anything that would impede the signal Helpful recommendations are listed in “Placing the AP in your site” on page 15.
CHAPTER 2 Installation, Setup, and Placement of the AP This chapter describes how to set up a Ruckus Wireless Hotspot access point for use in a Wi-Fi hotzone. This includes an important preliminary task: reconfiguring your PC/laptop to connect to the Ruckus AP through the Web User Interface. At the conclusion of setup, this chapter will guide you in resetting your PC for normal use, then guide you in placing and connecting your Wireless Hotspot AP for use.

Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex 2925/2942 User Guide | Managing the Access Point VLANs The VLAN page is used to configure the virtual LAN (VLAN) parameters of the AP. Traffic never uses VLAN tags over wireless links, but traffic originating on or destined for wirelessLAN stations can be differentiated by a VLAN identifier as it travels over other links, such as Ethernet, DSL or cable-Internet, etc., thus given the appropriate priority as it traverses the Internet.
Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex 2925/2942 User Guide | Managing the Access Point • VLAN ID: If the VLAN ID field is blank or empty, no VLAN tagging will occur for that network. The state is shown by one of three images, explained below in "VLAN port state icons.” If two rows (two networks) are assigned the same VLAN ID, then they are considered to be the same network. Note • VLAN tagging: Each RJ45 port can be configured to use VLAN tagging. By default, no RJ45 port is tagged.
Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex 2925/2942 User Guide | Managing the Access Point will remain set. If connectivity fails, then the device will revert to the previous VLAN settings.
