Chapter 3 Configuring your Access Point with the Web-Based User Interface 3-1 Start-up and Log in In order to configure the Access Point, you must use your web browser and please do the following: 1. Type this Access Point’s address http://192.168.1.1 in the Location (for IE) or Address field and press Enter. 2. Enter the system password (the default setting is “password”). 3. Click on the “Login” button. 4. The main page will appear.
3-1-2 System The Device Name is used to give a name to your Access Point. This will enable you to manage your Access Point more easily if you have multiple Access Points on your network. IP Address Assigment: Allow you to setup your device ip address. You can use fixed IP address or obtain IP address automatically. Note: If you complete the settings, please click on “Apply” for changes to take effect.
3-2 Wireless Setup 3-2-1 Wireless Settings The Wireless LAN Setup page lets you make changes to the wireless network settings. The Basic Settings, you can make changes to the wireless network name Operation Mode, SSID, Broadcast SSID, Wireless Mode, Channel/Frequency. The Advance Settings, you can make changes to the other advance settings, such as Output Power, Data Rate etc. Basic Settings Operation Mode: Selecte the operating mode from the drop-down list.
Wireless Mode: There are three different wireless modes to operate, “Auto (11g/11b)”, “802.11b only”, and “802.11g only”. In Auto (11g/11b) mode, the access point is compatible with a mix of both 802.11g and 802.11b clients. You will see that the factory-set default “Auto (11b/11g)” will prove the most efficient. 802.11b only mode is compatible with 802.11b clients only. This mode can be used only if you do not allow any 802.11g clients to access to the network. 802.11g only mode is compatible with 802.
DTIM Interval: This value indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the Access Point has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Clients can hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages.
while transmitting. Note: If you complete the settings, please click on “Apply” for changes to take effect.
3-2-1-2 Wireless Client Select Wireless Client in the Operation Mode field to display the screen as shown next. This mode has the device act as wireless client to connect to a wireless network. Note: WPA, WPA2 and IEEE 802.1x wireless security are not available when you use Wireless Client, Bridge or AP+Repeater mode. Basic Settings Operation Mode: Selecte the operating mode from the drop-down list. The options are Access Point, Wireless Client, Bridge, AP+Repeater.
Radio Enable: Turn on the wireless adapter to allow wireless communications between the device and other IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g compliant wireless device. Turn off the wireless adapter to stop wireless communications between the device and other IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g compliant wireless device. Output Power Management: Set the transmit signal strength of the access point. The options are full, half, quarter, eighth and min. Decrease the transmit power if necessary. The default is “full”.
3-2-1-3 Bridge The device can act as a wireless network bridge and establish wireless links with other APs. You need to know the MAC address of the peer device, which also must be in bridge mode. When twi devices connect in Bridge mode, they form a WDS (Wireless Distribution System) allowing the computers in one LAN to connect to the computers in another LAN. See the following example. Note: WPA, WPA2 and IEEE 802.
Basic Settings Operation Mode: Selecte the operating mode from the drop-down list. The options are Access Point, Wireless Client, Bridge, AP+Repeater. Channel: Select the appropriate channel from the list provided to correspond with your network settings. Wireless Mode: There are three different wireless modes to operate, “Auto (11g/11b)”, “802.11b only”, and “802.11g only”. In Auto (11g/11b) mode, the access point is compatible with a mix of both 802.11g and 802.11b clients.
wireless network. Specifies rate of data transmission. Select the desired rate from the drop-down menu and choose “Best” to adapt the rate to the best available. Preamble Type: The Preamble defines the length of the PLCP synchronization field for communication between the Access Point and Network Card. Select the appropriate preamble type and press the Apply button to set it. The default setting is ‘Dynamic’. Super-G Mode: Enable Super-G may enhance the wireless throughput. The default setting is Disable.
3-2-1-4 AP+Repeater Select AP+Repeater as the Operation Mode to have the device act as an access point and a wireless bridge. Basic Settings Operation Mode: Selecte the operating mode from the drop-down list. The options are Access Point, Wireless Client, Bridge, AP+Repeater. SSID: The SSID is a unique ID used by Access Points and Stations to identify a wireless LAN. Wireless clients associating to any Access Point must have the same SSID. The default SSID is “Wireless”.
off the broadcast of the SSID, click “No” check box next to “Broadcast SSID”. And your Access Point will refuse the connection requests from whose are not aware the Network ID. But certainly the Access Point can be easily connected well when you realize the Network ID. The default setting is “Yes”. Wireless Mode: There are three different wireless modes to operate, “Auto (11g/11b)”, “802.11b only”, and “802.11g only”. In Auto (11g/11b) mode, the access point is compatible with a mix of both 802.11g and 802.
Traffic Indicator Maps, and the Traffic Indicator Message (TIM). Intra-BSS traffic: Intra-BSS traffic is trffic between wireless stations in the same BSS. Enable Intra-BSS traffic to allow wireless stations connected to the device to communicate with each other. Disable Intra-BSS traffic to only allow wireless stations to communicate with wired network, not with each other. DTIM Interval: This value indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM).
Node” problem. If the size of the packet transmitted is larger than the value you set, the RTS will be enabled. When the RTS is activated, the station and its Access Point will use a (RTS/CTS) mechanism for data transmission. The setting range is 0-2346. Fragmentation: Fragmentation mechanism is used for improving the efficiency when there is high traffic within the wireless network. If you transmit large files in a wireless network, you can enable the Fragmentation Threshold and specify the packet size.
3-2-2 Security Settings WEP To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the network, the Access Point Security Settings window offers WEP features, making your data transmission over air more secure and allows you to specify Encryption Key(s) if you enable encryption for the Access Point.
