Chapter 1. 1.1 Introduction Introducing the EKI-6311G The EKI-6311G is fully interoperable with IEEE 802.11b/g compliant Wireless Last-mile product. The EKI-6311G operates in AP mode or remote bridge mode, and connects to EKI-6311G AP/CB to construct point-to-point as well as point-to-multipoint topologies, for maximum flexibility in configuring building-to-building networks and WISP functions. 1.
1.4 System Requirements Installation of the EKI-6311G Outdoor Wireless Access Point/Client Bridge requires the following: 1. A Windows-based PC/AT compatible computer（PC system requirement： better than PIII 800 or other 100% compatible equipment , OS：windows 2000/XP ） or Ethernet data device with an available RJ-45 Ethernet port to run the configuration program or with TCP/IP connection to the Ethernet network. 2. A 10/100Base-T Ethernet RJ-45 Ethernet cable is connected to Ethernet network. 3.
Chapter 2. Installation and Basic Configuration This chapter describes the procedures of installing the EKI-6311G. 2.1 Before You Start After unpacking the system, make sure the following items are present and in good condition.

2.4.3 Set Operating Mode, IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Route IP, DNS Server IP of EKI-6311G ► LAN Settings These are the settings of the LAN (Local Area Network) interface for the Access Point. The Access Point's local network (LAN) settings are configured based on the IP Address and Subnet Mask assigned in this section. The IP address is also used to access this Web-based management interface. This option is available in the “/NETWORK/ NETWORK /” page as shown in Figure 2-7.
The IP address of the AP on the local area network. Assign any unused IP address in the range of IP addresses available for the LAN. For example, 192.168.1.1. ► Subnet Mask The subnet mask of the local area network. ► Gateway The IP address of the router on the local area network. ► DNS Server This entry is optional. Enter a DNS Server for the local network.
2.4.4 Set Wireless SSID for Wireless Interface ► Wireless Network Name （Also called the SSID） When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the name that will appear in the list (unless Visibility Status is set to Invisible, see below). This name is also referred to as the SSID. For security purposes, it is highly recommended to change from the pre-configured network name.
2.4.5 Set Wireless Encryption for Wireless Interface The EKI-6311G supports 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption. For 64-bit WEP encryption, an encryption key is 10 hexadecimal characters (0-9 and A-F) or 5 ASCII characters. For 128-bit WEP encryption, an encryption key is 26 hexadecimal characters or 13 ASCII characters. Modify the WEP encryption parameters on the web page “/WIRELESS/Wi-Fi 1 SECURITY ”. Choice “WEP” Enter 1~15 characters into the WEP Key field, than click Apply ，“/SYSTEM/Reboot ”Reboot.
