INTRODUCTION
This is an IEEE802.11b compliant 11 Mbps Ethernet Wireless Access Point. The
Wireless Access Point is equipped with two 10/100 M Auto-sensing Ethernet ports for
connecting to LAN and also for cascading to next Wireless Access Point.
This Access Point provides 64/128bit WEP encryption, WPA and IEEE802.1x whichensures a high level of security to protects users’ data and privacy. The MAC Address
filter prevents the unauthorized MAC Addresses from accessing your Wireless LAN.
Your network security is therefore double assured.
The web-based management utility is provided for easy configuration that your wireless
network connection is ensured to be always solid and hassle free.

HARDWARE CONNECTION
Note: Before you starting hardware connection,you are advised tofind an appropriate
location to place the Access Point. Usually, the best place for the Access Point is at the
center ofyourwireless network, with line of straightto all yourwireless stations. Also,
remember to adjust the antenna; usually the higher the antennais placed, the better will
be theperformance.
1. Connect to your local area network: connect a Ethernet cable to one of the
Ethernet port (LAN1 orLAN2) ofthis Wireless Access Point, and the other end toa
hub, switch, router, or another wireless access point.
2. Power on the device: connect the included AC power adapter tothe Wireless Access
Point’s power port andthe other end to a walloutlet.
Check the LEDs:
The Power and LAN # LEDs shouldbeON. LAN# LED will even blink if there is traffic.
The Link/Act LED will beon in static when associated with a station and blink whenever
this AP receives data packets in the air.
If the ErrStatus LED glows after self-test , it means this Wireless Access Point fails on
self test. Please ask your dealer for technical support.
3. Configure your PC: Make sure your local PC(s) has wireless network adapter
installed.

ABOU TTH E OPERATION MODES
Thisdevice provides fouroperational applications withAccess Point, Bridge, Client
(Ad-hoc) and Client(Infrastructure) modes, which are mutually exclusive.
This device is shippedwith configuration that is functional rightout of the box. If you
want tochangethe settings inorder to perform more advancedconfiguration or even
changethe mode of operation,youcan use the web-based utility provided bythe
manufacturerasdescribed in the followingsections.
Access Point Mode
When acting as an access point, this device connects all the stations (PC/notebook with
wireless network adapter) to a wired network. All stations can have the Internet access if
only the Access Point has the Internet connection.
See the sample applicationbelow.
To set the operation mode toAccess Point, please go to “Wireless ??BasicSettings”, in
the “Mode” field clickthe down arrow ?to select AP mode.

Bridge Mode
Refer to the illustration below. While acting as Bridges, AP1 (with Station1 being
associated to) and AP2 (with Station 2 being associated) can communicate with each other
through wireless interface (with WDS). Thus Station 1 can communicate with Station 2
and both Station1 and Station 2 are able to access the Internet if only AP1 orAP2 has the
Internetconnection.
To set the operation mode to Bridge, please go to “Wireless ??Basic Settings”,in the
“Mode” field click the down arrow ?to select AP mode. And go to “Wireless ??WDS
Settings” to enableWDS.
Note:
To act as Bridge, bothAP1and AP2 must haveWDS enabledand add each other as its
WDS Access Point.(e.g. Add AP2’s MAC address toAP1’s “WDSAPList” and vice
versa)
9
Client Mode (Infrastructure)
If set to Client(Infrastructure) mode, this device can work like a wireless stationwhen it’s
connected to a computer so that the computer cansendpackets from wired end to wireless
interface.
Refer to the illustrationbelow. Th is station (AP1 plusthe connected computer 1) can
associate to another Access Point (AP2), and then can have the Internet access if the other
Access Point (AP2) has the Internet connection.
To set the operation mode to Client (Infrastructure), please go to “Wireless ??Basic
Settings”, in the“Mode” field click the down arrow ?to select Client mode, and then
select “Network Type” as “Infrastructure”.
10
Client Mode (Ad-hoc)
If set to the Client(Ad-hoc) mode, this device can work like a wireless stationwhen it is
connected to a computer so that the computer cansendpackets from wired end to wireless
interface. You can share files and printers between wireless stations (PC and laptop with
wireless network adapter installed).
See the sample applicationbelow.
To set the operationmodeto Client (Ad-hoc), please go to“Wireless ??Basic Settings”,
in the “Mode” field click the down arrow ?to select Client mode, and then select
Network Type as “Ad-hoc”.
