HARDWARE CONNECTION Note: Before you starting hardware connection, you are advised to find an appropriate location to place the Access Point. Usually, the best place for the Access Point is at the center of your wireless network, with line of straight to all your wireless stations. Also, remember to adjust the antenna; usually the higher the antenna is placed, the better will the performance be.
ABOUT THE OPERATION MODES This device provides four operational applications with Access Point, Bridge, Client (Ad-hoc) and Client (Infrastructure) modes, which are mutually exclusive. This device is shipped with configuration that is functional right out of the box. If you want to change the settings in order to perform more advanced configuration or even change the mode of operation, you can use the web-based utility provided by the manufacturer as described in the following sections.
WDS Bridge Mode The WDS (Wireless Distributed System) function lets this access point act as a wireless LAN access point and repeater at the same time. Users can use this feature to build up a large wireless network in a large space like airports, hotels and schools …etc. This feature is also useful when users want to bridge networks between buildings where it is impossible to deploy network cable connections between these buildings.
CONFIGURATION Login 1. 2. 3. Start your computer. Connect an Ethernet cable between your computer and the Wireless Access Point. Make sure your wired station is set to the same subnet as the Wireless Access Point, i.e. 192.168.1.254 Start your WEB browser. In the Address box, enter the following: HTTP://192.168.1.254 The configuration menu is divided into four categories: Status, Wireless, TCP/IP, and Other settings. Click on the desired setup item to expand the page in the main navigation page.
Status In this screen, you can see the current settings and status of this Access Point. You can change settings by selecting specific tab described in below. System System The time period since the device was up. Uptime The current version of the firmware installed in this device. Firmware Version Wireless Configuration There are four modes supported, Access Point, Client (AdWireless Mode hoc and Infrastructure), WDS Bridge and WDS repeater. The default mode is Access Point.
Channel Number Encryption Associated Clients BSSID TCP/IP Configuration IP Protocol br0 IP Address br0 Subnet Mask br0 Default Gateway br0 MAC Address The number of channels supported depends on the region of this Access Point. All stations communicating with the Access Point must use the same channel. WEP Encryption (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is set to Disabled by default. When WEP is enabled, data packet is encrypted before being transmitted.
Wireless Basic Settings This page includes all primary and major parameters. Any parameter change will cause the device to reboot for the new settings to take effect. Disable Wireless LAN Interface Band Mode Network Type Check the box to disable the Wireless LAN Interface, by so doing, you won’t be able to make wireless connection with this Access Point in the network you are located. In other words, this device will not be visible by any wireless station.
The SSID differentiates one WLAN from another, therefore, all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the same SSID. It is casesensitive and must not exceed 32 characters. A device will not be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID. An SSID is also referred to as a network name because essentially it is a name that identifies a wireless network. Allow user to set the channel manually or Channel Number automatically.
Authentication Type To provide a certain level of security, the IEEE 802.11 standard has defined two types of authentication methods, Open System and Shared Key. With Open System authentication, a wireless PC can join any network and receive any messages that are not encrypted. With Shared Key authentication, only those PCs that possess the correct authentication key can join the network. By default, IEEE 802.11 wireless devices operate in an Open System network.
Fragment Threshold Fragmentation mechanism is used for improving the efficiency when high traffic flows along in the wireless network. If your 802.11g Wireless LAN PC Card often transmit large files in wireless network, you can enter new Fragment Threshold value to split the packet. The value can be set from 256 to 2346. The default value is 2346. RTS Threshold RTS Threshold is a mechanism implemented to prevent the “Hidden Node” problem.
Data Rate Preamble Type Broadcast SSID IAPP 802.11g Protection Tx Power Level Apply Change Reset By default, the unit adaptively selects the highest possible rate for transmission. Select the basic rates to be used among the following options: Auto, 1, 2, 5.5, 11or 54 Mbps. For most networks the default setting is Auto which is the best choice. When Auto is enabled the transmission rate will select the optimal rate.
Security Here you can configure the security of your wireless network. Selecting different method will enable you to have different level of security. Please note that by using any encryption, by which data packet is encrypted before transmission to prevent data packets from being eavesdropped by unrelated people, there may be a significant degradation of the data throughput on the wireless link. Encryption: None ( Encryption is set to None by default. ) If Use 802.
Set WEP key Click the Set WEP Keys will prompt you a window to set 64bit or 128bit Encryption. Select HEX if you are using hexadecimal numbers (0-9, or A-F). Select ASCII if you are using ASCII characters (case-sensitive). Ten hexadecimal digits or five ASCII characters are needed if 64-bit WEP is used; 26 hexadecimal digits or 13 ASCII characters are needed if 128-bit WEP is used.
Enter the number of seconds that will elapse before the group key change automatically. The default is 86400 seconds. Enable Pre-Authentication The two most important features beyond WPA to become standardized through 802.11i/WPA2 are: preauthentication, which enables secure fast roaming without noticeable signal latency. Preauthentication provides a way to establish a PMK security association before a client associates.
Wireless Access Control Select the Access Control Mode from the pull-down menu. Disable: Select to disable Wireless Access Control Mode. Mode Allow Listed: Only the stations shown in the table can associate with the AP. MAC Address Comment Apply Changes Reset Delete Selected Delete All Reset Deny Listed: Stations shown in the table won’t be able to associate with the AP. Enter the MAC Address of a station that is allowed to access this Access Point.
TCP/IP Basic In this page, you can change the TCP/IP settings of this Access Point, select to enable/disable the DHCP Client, 802.1d Spanning Tree, and Clone MAC Address. IP Address Subnet Mask Default Gateway DHCP DHCP Client Range Show Client DNS Server This field can be modified only when DHCP Client is disabled. If your system manager assigned you static IP settings, then you will have to enter the information provided. Enter the information provided by your system manager.
802.1d Spanning Tree To enable 802.1d Spanning Tree will prevent the network from infinite loops. Infinite loop will happen in the network when WDS is enabled and there are multiple active paths between stations. Clone MAC Address Apply Change Reset You can specify the MAC address of your Access Point to replace the factory setting. Press to save the new settings on the screen. Press to discard the data you have entered since last time you press Apply Change.
