EZ CONNECTTM
WIRELESS BRIDGE
SMC2682W
SMCs EZ Connect Wireless Bridge is an 11
Mbps wireless bridge that allows the connections
of two or more remote Ethernet LANs into a
single irtual LAN. Workstations on each of the
remote LANs may communicate with each other
as though they were on the same physical LAN.
The wireless bridge can also function as an
Access Point and pro ide transparent, wireless
data communications between the wired LAN
(and/or within the wireless Network) and fixed,
portable or mobile de ices equipped with a
wireless adapter employing the same
modulation.
This solution offers fast, reliable wireless
connecti ity with considerable cost sa ings o er
wired LANs (which include long-term
maintenance o erhead for cabling.)
Package Checklist
The EZ Connect Wireless Bridge package
includes:
1 EZ Connect Wireless Bridge (SMC2682W)
1 antenna (dipole, omni-directional)
1 DC power adapter
1 utility diskette

Hardware Description
Ethernet Compatibility:
SMCs EZ Connect Wireless Bridge can attach
directly to 10BaseT (Twisted Pair) Ethernet LAN
segments. These segments must conform to
IEEE 802.3 specification.
The Bridge appears as an Ethernet node and
performs a routing function by mo ing packets
from the wired LAN to remote workstations on
the Wireless infrastructure.
Radio Characteristics:
The Wireless Bridge uses a radio modulation
technique known as Direct Sequence Spread
Spectrum transmission (DSSS, CSMA/CA). It
operates in the 2.4 GHz license-free Industrial
Scientific and Medical (ISM) band. Data is
transmitted o er a half-duplex radio channel
operating at up to 11 Megabits per second
(Mbps).
Applications
The EZ Connect Wireless products offer a fast,
reliable, cost-effecti e solution for wireless/
Ethernet client access to the network in
applications such as:
Remote access to corporate network
information
E-mail, file transfer and terminal emulation
Difficult-to-wire environments
Historical or old buildings, asbestos
installations and open areas where wiring is
difficult to employ
Frequently changing environments
Retailers, manufacturers and banks which
frequently rearrange the workplace or change
location
Temporary LANs for special pro ects or
peak times
Trade shows, exhibitions and construction
sites which need temporary setup for a short
time period. Retailers, airline and shipping
companies which need additional
workstations for a peak period. Auditors
who require workgroups at customer sites.
Access to databases for mobile workers
Doctors, nurses, retailers, or white-collar
workers who need access to databases while
being mobile in a hospital, retail store or an
office campus.
SOHO (Small Office and Home Office)
users
SOHO users who need easy and quick
installation of a small computer network
functions.
Building-to-Building connectivity
Connect discreet sites into a single LAN,
e en when theyre separated by obstacles
such as freeways, railroads, or bodies of water
that are practically insurmountable for
copper and fiber-optic cable.
LED Indicators
The EZ Connect Wireless Bridge includes fi e
status LED indicators, as described in the
following figure and table.
S stem Requirements
Before you install the EZ Connect Wireless
Access Point, be sure you can meet the following
requirements:
An A/C power outlet (100~240V, 50~60Hz)
which will supply power for the access point

INSTALLATION
1. Select the Site - Choose a proper place for
your SMC2682W Wireless Bridge. In
general, the best location is at the center of
your wireless co erage area, within line of
sight to all wireless de ices.
2. Attach the Antenna - Screw the antenna into
the antenna connector (ANTENNA) on the
back panel. Proper placement will impro e
performance. Try to place the Bridge in a
position that can best co er its BSS (refer to
page 13). Normally, the higher you place
the antenna, the better the performance.
3. Connect the Ethernet Cable - The
SMC2682W can be wired to a 10 BASE-T
Ethernet with a network de ice such as a
hub or a switch.Connect into the RJ-45
connector socket on the back panel with
category 3, 4 or 5 UTP Ethernet cable and
an RJ-45 connector.
4. Connect the Power Cable - Connect the
power adapter cable to the 9V DC power
Socket on the rear panel.
Warning: USE ONLY the power adapter
supplied with the SMC2682W.
Otherwise, the product may be
damaged.

CONFIGURATION
The diskette labeled Utility Diskette that
comes with the package contains a utility
program for the EZ Connect Wireless Bridge.
Any updates can be downloaded from SMCs
Web site at
http://www.smc.com.
Warning: Back up your utility diskette and use
the copy as the working diskette to
protect the original from accidental
damage.
The SMC2682W can be configured o er an
Ethernet network using RJ-45 cable. You may
connect the SMC2682W to a network de ice
such as a hub or switch. Then, run the utility
program, and configure the SMC2682W
remotely as described below.
Windows NT/95/98/2000/ME
Installation
1. Insert the SMC2682W utility disk into the
floppy dri e on your PC, and then enter the
following command: A:\utility\setup.
Follow the on-screen instructions to install
the utility program.
2. When you run the installed utility, click on
AP/Bridge and then select Scan from
the menu. The program will then detect all
the SMC2682W Bridges on the network.
3. From the list of detected de ices, select and
double-click on the unit you want to
configure. The Assign Temporary IP
Address dialog box will appear. The utility
will display IP information based on what it
gathered from the network settings on your
computer. You may manually change it if
you prefer some other settings, or click OK
if youd like to use the IP information the
utility generated.
4. A second box will pop up, informing you
that the IP address you e assigned is only
temporary. Click OK and the utility will
appear again, listing the de ice again, this
time with IP information.
5. From the list, again select and double click
on the unit you want to configure. This
time the web browser page will appear as
follows::
6. Enter the password WLAN_BRIDGE
and click Login. This will take you to
