Introduction Work and play - further and faster! Eliminate dead spots and enjoy faster connections with vastly extended range from Buffalo Technology’s amazing wireless solution, the AirStation High Power Wireless Broadband SmartRouter. System Requirements • A high-speed (Broadband) Internet connection or existing local area connection. • A computer with a network connection (wired or wireless) and a good web browser.
Basic Setup Begin by finding a good place to set up your router/access point. consider: Some things to • You’ll need to be able to plug your internet connection into it, so it should go within reach of the LAN cable from your DSL or Cable modem. You’ll also want a power outlet nearby. • Keep the access point as central in your work area as possible. Signal strength and speed fall off with distance. • Higher is often better.
Getting Ready Make note of the AirStation’s wired MAC address. The LAN or Wired MAC address is the default SSID (wireless network name) of the AirStation. You can find it on the bottom of the AirStation. You may also wish to contact your ISP to ask if other information, such as global IP address, subnet mask address, default gateway address, DNS server address, or PPPoE parameters, is necessary to access your internet connection. Write down any necessary information that your ISP requires for connection.
Connecting your AirStation 1. Power down the Cable or DSL modem and the computer which will be used to configure the AirStation router. 2. Plug the Cable or DSL’s LAN Ethernet cable into the AirStation’s WAN port. Initially, you may need to unplug this cable from your computer, hub or other router. 3. Plug the provided Ethernet cable into a LAN port on the AirStation and plug the other end into your computer’s Ethernet adapter (NIC).
Log in to the Configuration Tool Launch a web browser on the computer that you’re going to use to configure the AirStation. Enter 192.168.11.1 into the URL field. Naturally, if you change your AirStation’s IP address, you’ll have to enter the new address instead. A window will open, prompting you to enter a User ID and Password. Enter root as the User name and leave the password field blank.
Detecting Your Broadband Connection Your AirStation’s SmartRouter technology will determine the type of internet connection you have automatically, and ask you for any needed information. If your ISP assigns IPs automatically (most cable providers do), their DHCP server will give your router an IP address. If additional login information is required to connect to the internet, the wizard will ask for it. Enter any required login information if asked.
Home This is the opening page of your AirStation’s configuration tool. You can always get to it from within the configuration screens by clicking on Home. From here, you can configure port mapping for your internet games, turn on UPnP for Windows (MSN) Messenger, configure your Firewall, setup Encryption, choose your Wireless channel, update your AirStation’s firmware, and reset your Internet connection’s configuration.
AOSS AOSS (AirStation One-Touch Secure System) is a simple system for configuring your wireless network securely. If your router and your client device are connected and both support AOSS, then making a secure wireless connection is very easy. Push the AOSS button on the top of your router and hold it in for a few seconds. The AOSS light will begin to flash amber. You now have two minutes to push the AOSS button on your client device and finish the connection.
AOSS Notes Some things to keep in mind ◗ Only one AOSS wireless client adapter can be configured with the AOSS router at a time. The buttons will need to be re-pressed to connect each additional AOSS wireless client adapter. ◗ It is not necessary to AOSS client devices that have already been configured via AOSS, unless significant changes have been made to the wireless network. ◗ Do not attempt to configure two separate AOSS networks at the same time, as it may cause undesired configurations.
Router/Access Point Mode This AirStation supports quickly changing the product from a wireless router to a conventional access point. Put your Airstation into Access Point Mode by moving the switch on the bottom of your AirStation from AUTO to BRI. This changes the default IP address of the AirStation from 192.168.11.1 to 192.168.11.100, and DHCP, NAT, and the WAN port are disabled. Access Point Mode might be desirable if you’re adding wireless capability to an existing network with a router.
Manual Client Configuration If your wireless client doesn’t support AOSS, you’ll have to configure it manually. From the Home page, click on the System Info tab.
System Info This page gives you all the information you might need to configure your non-AOSS wireless client. Probably you’ll just need the SSID, encryption type, and password. Consult your wireless client’s documentation for more information on configuring it if necessary. You can get here from Home by clicking the System Info tab.
AirStation Configuration Tool (Home) When you first open your AirStation Configuration Tool, it will take you to Home (see also page 11). From Home, you can configure port mapping for your internet games, set UPnP for Windows (MSN) Messenger, configure your firewall, setup encryption, choose your wireless channel, update your AirStation’s firmware, and reset your Internet Connection’s configuration. Clicking the Advanced tab gives you access to all of the AirStation’s configuration tools.
Internet Games (Port Mapping) Select any ports that need to be opened for your internet games to function correctly. Consult your game’s documentation for more information on what ports need to be configured.
Firewall/Intrusion Detector From this page, choose the level of firewall security you desire. You may also choose to have alerts sent to a different PC, if you like. Click Next when done to restart the router. Get to this page from Home by clicking on Firewall/Intrusion Detector.
Windows (MSN) Messinger/UPnP Windows (MSN) Messinger requires UPnP for proper operation. You may Enable UPnP here. UPnP may need to be configured on your PC as well. If you need to configure UPnP on your PC, the links at the bottom of the page have instructions for doing so on Windows ME and XP computers. Get to this page from Home by clicking on Windows (MSN) Messinger.
Wireless Encryption This page is available from Home by selecting Wireless Encryption. Here, you can manually select the type of wireless encryption you’d like to use. Your AirStation supports three different encryption schemes; choose the best one that all your clients support. Virtually all wireless clients support WEP. It’s a lot better than nothing. TKIP is much more secure than WEP, but slower. AES is even more secure than TKIP, and the fastest of all.
Wireless Channel This page is available from Home by selecting Wireless channel. With Auto Channel selected, your AirStation will choose the best channel available. Current channel will show the channel that your AirStation is currently using. You may also select any channel from 1-11 manually. Channels 1, 6, and 11 are non-overlapping. If multiple channels are in use in an area, select a different channel for your AirStation, as far away from the other channels being used as possible.
Firmware Update This page is available from Home by selecting Firmware update. Use Browse to select your firmware update file, and then click on Apply. Firmware update may take several minutes to complete. Don’t power down your AirStation until the diag LED has gone out.
Internet Connection (Multisession Reset) From Home, selecting the Internet Connection Wizard (Multisession Reset) tab will begin the Internet Connection Wizard. The Internet Connection Wizard will only function correctly in simple networks, where your cable or DSL modem is plugged directly into your AirStation’s WAN port. If you have a complicated existing network that you’re adding the AirStation to, see page 56.
Advanced Settings Advanced Settings lets you configure every element of your AirStation. Get to Advanced Settings from Home by clicking the Advanced Tab. You may return to Home by clicking on the yellow > Home link in the top left corner. Click Help in the top right corner for more information about any of the pages in Advanced Settings.

Also on this page, under Advanced Setup, you may manually set the Default Gateway, DNS server, WAN MAC address, WAN format, and WEB port number. Click Apply when finished.
PPPoE Many DSL connections require a PPPoE Connection in order to log in to an internet connection. Normally, the Easy Detection Wizard will help you configure that, but you may manually configure one here. Consult your ISP for more information on correctly configuring your PPPoE connection. To add a new PPPoE connection, click Edit Connection List. To choose your preferred connection, click on Edit Preferred Connection List.
LAN Config (LAN Port) Default for the LAN side IP address is 192.168.11.1. To add the AirStation to an existing LAN, specify a unique IPaddress, not used elsewhere in the network. The default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. To connect AirStation to an existing LAN, specify the Subnet Mask that the LAN uses. If there’s more than one DHCP server on a network, disable all but one of them.
Advanced DHCP Settings This page offers the same DHCP settings as the previous one, and in addition, offers you the chance to change the Lease Period, Default Gateway, DNS servers, WINS server, and Domain Name. Click Apply when you have the settings the way you want them. To manually assign an IP address, click Manual Assignment.
DHCP Server (Manual Assignment of IP Address) To manually link a LAN address to a MAC address, enter them under Add Client Information and click Add. Current DHCP Client Information shows all LAN addresses currently assigned by AirStation’s DHCP. You may configure a specific client to always recieve the same IP address by clicking Manual Assignment to the right of its MAC Address. Clicking Delete returns a manually assigned client to normal DHCP operation.
Network Config (Route Info) By default, the AirStation receives RIP (Route Information Protocol) information only from your local network, and doesn’t broadcast RIP at all. For large, complicated network configurations, you may wish to modify this behavior. Click Apply when you have your desired configuration. Lower on the page, routing information is displayed. Click Edit Routing Information to add a new route manually.
Network Configuration (Edit Routing Information) To configure a route manually, enter its Destination Address and Gateway. Enter a maximum number of hops allowable in Metric and click Add.
NAT You may disable Network Address Translation and IPsec passthrough by unchecking the appropriate Enable boxes. If you have a DMZ, enter its IP address in the IP Address of DMZ box. Incoming packets containing no recognizable destination port information will be redirected to the DMZ’s IP address. Click Apply when done. To set a NAT table entry manually, click Edit NAT Table.
NAT (Manual Entry) From this page you may manually add entries into the Address Translation Table. Click Add New Group when each is complete.
IP Filter Your AirStation comes pre-configured with basic rules. You may choose which of these to use by clicking on Add/Delete Basic Rules and turning to page 36. To make a custom rule, click on Configure IP Filter (page 37).
IP Filter (Add/Delete Basic Rules) Get here by clicking on Add/Delete Basic Rules (see page 35). You may choose which of AirStation’s preconfigured basic rules are enabled or disabled. Active rules are displayed with a green background, and disabled rules are shown in red. Choose the rules you want to use by clicking under Operation. When your choices are complete, click on Initialize.
IP Filter (Configure IP Filter) Clicking on Configure IP Filter from the IP filter page (page 35) will bring you to this page, where you can make your own rules. Click Add Rule when you have each rule configured the way you want it.
Network Configuration (Intrusion Detector) To enable intrusion detector, choose Enable or Enable (Apply packet filter rules) from the Intrusion Detector drop-down box. If packet filter rules are applied, packets will be filtered with packet filter rules before Intrusion Detector is applied. Blocking IP spoofing blocks packets from devices using an IP address that is not their own. In the Threshold Value box, enter the number of times an event has to occur before you receive notification.
UPnP You may disable Universal Plug and Play functionality by unchecking Enable here. Note that Windows (MSN) Messenger will not function correctly with UPnP disabled.
AOSS Clicking Start AOSS Sequence has the same function as pushing the AOSS button on the router: it initiates the AOSS process. If all your clients support AOSS, it’s very simple to set them up. Press the AOSS button on the router, or the one on this page, and then push the AOSS button on the client device. Each client device will have to be set up seperately. Wait for each AOSS process to finish before starting the next one. Consult your client device’s documentation for the location of its AOSS button.
802.11g (Basic) If you have a mixed mode network, with both 802.11b and 802.11g clients, it’s recommended that you check 11g protection to ensure that slower 11b clients don’t hog all available bandwidth. Choosing Auto for Wireless mode lets both 802.11b and 802.11g clients connect to the network. If you would prefer to allow only one or the other, you have those options as well. Two different framebursting modes are available.
802.11g (Security) Buffalo recommends that you choose the strongest form of encryption that’s supported by all your client devices. • WEP is a lot better than nothing, and almost every wireless device ever made supports it. • TKIP is slower than WEP but much more secure. • AES is the most secure of all, and the quickest as well. Use it if you can. Setting the key renewal period too short can decrease network performance.
Bridge/Repeater (WDS Bridging) To setup a bridge between two or more wireless access points, select Enable and click on Apply. For more on setting up WDS, see page 67, or click on Help at the top right corner of the screen.
MAC Access Limit You may limit access to your wireless network to specific computers. Computers not listed on your MAC Registration List will not be able to connect to the network. If you enable this, click Edit Registration List to add MAC addresses to your registration list.
MAC Access Limit (Edit Registration List) Advanced Settings Enter a MAC address and click Apply for each client that’s going to be accessing the network.
Admin Configuration (Name/Password) Here, you can change your AirStation’s name on your network and the administrator password. The name of the administrator account is fixed as “root”. If you have many AirStations on your network, having clear, descriptive names for each can make them much easier to administrate.
Admin Config (Date/NTP) You may set the time and date on your AirStation by entering it manually, and then clicking Apply. You may also click Acquire Current Time from your PC to set time and date automatically to match the PC you’re using to set it up. If you have an NTP time server on your network, Enable NTP functionality and enter your NTP Server Name. Choose how often you want time updated and click Apply. If you’re setting time manually, you’ll need to select your Time Zone and click Apply.
Syslog Transfer If you have a syslog server on your network, you may send logs to it. Check Enable to have logs transferred. Enter the address of your Syslog Server, check the logs you want transferred, and click Apply.
Save/Load Configuration Once your AirStation’s configured the way you want it, you can save the configuration here. You’ll need the current administrator password to restore the configuration from the backup file later. Click Help at the top right corner of the page for more information on backing up and recovering system configuration files.

When available, updated firmware may be downloaded from www.buffalotech.com.
System Information The System Information page lists all the setup information for your AirStation. It can be very handy for setting up clients that don’t support AOSS.
Log Information Here you can choose what information gets logged and see recent log entries.
Packet Traffic Information Here, you can see the packets and errors for each of your networks.
Client Monitor Client Monitor shows you a list of all clients currently connected to the wireless network.
Ping Test To perform a Ping test, enter a target (such as 192.168.11.2 or www. buffalotech.com) and click Execute. Successful pings return “64 bytes from . . .” messages. If the ping returns “Connection failed” or other errors, something is preventing you from communicating successfully with your target.
Connecting to a Preexisting Network Add an AirStation without changing your existing LAN configuration 1. Set the AirStation into Access Point Mode by moving the switch on the bottom from AUTO to BRI. 2. Connect one of the AirStation’s LAN ports to an existing router or switch on your network. Nothing should be plugged into the WAN port. 3. Open LAN Settings - LAN Port Settings and configure the following settings: IP Address =[192.168.11.1] (Specify an unused network address from the existing LAN.
Antenna The WHR-HP-G54’s external antenna will usually give the best performance if oriented to point straight up. If your AirStation is resting on its side, use the antenna’s swivel and twist function to orient it pointed upward. In some environments it’s desirable to further increase range by installing an external, higher-gain antenna. External antennas come in all shapes and sizes. Antennas also come with different connectors. The WHR-HP-G54 has an RP-SMA connector on it.

Troubleshooting Troubleshooting WDS The most common issue with WDS installations is using the wrong MAC address. The proper MAC Address for the access points is the Wireless MAC Address. The best place to get this from System Information in the configuration tool. Restrictions: 1. All wireless access points in the wireless bridge need to support WDS. At time of publication, only Buffalo G54 and Apple Airport Extreme access points support WDS. 2.
Troubleshooting Setting up WDS; the long version: 1. It is recommended that all access points in the bridge are reset to their factory default settings. This is done by holding the INIT button on the rear of the access point down for 5-10 seconds. 2. Login to the first access point in the wireless bridge (this should be the DHCP server enabled access point if there is not already a routed wired network). 3. Click on the Advanced button. 4. The wireless settings page will appear.
Troubleshooting 9. Logout of the access point by clicking on the Logout link on the left. Close the browser window. 10. Login to the second access point in the wireless bridge. 11. Click on the Advanced Settings tab. 12. The wireless settings page will appear. Select the proper settings for the wireless network. Refer to the settings recorded from the first access point. All settings except for the SSID need to be identical amongst all access points in the bridge.
Troubleshooting 19. At the top of the page, press the Apply button. 20. Once the router has rebooted, click on the Management tab on the left. 21. The System Information page will appear. In the Wireless section of the table record the MAC address (including the :’s). Please make sure the Wireless MAC address, and not the wired MAC address, is recorded. 22. Logout of the access point by clicking on Logout at the top of the page. Close the browser window. 23. Login to access point one again. 24.
Troubleshooting a. If the Result section of the table reports information like “1st: 64 bytes from IP_ADDRESS” then the WDS bridge is effectively working. b. If the Result section of the table reports “Destination Host Unreachable”, then an error has occurred during the setup. WDS is a complicated bridging system with a lot of variables. If there are still problems with WDS configuration on the network, please contact Buffalo Tech Support (see pages 82 and 83).
