WavePoint 10e
FreeWave Recommends: For security, and to avoid duplication of neighboring network names, it
is highly recommended that either the SSID or the Security Key be changed to a unique ID.
For information about defining and enabling virtual APs, see Enabling Virtual Access Points on page
89.
Procedure
1. Connect to the WavePoint 10e either through an Ethernet cable connected to Ethernet
port 3 or 4 or through the computer's wireless options.
2. Use a web browser to access the Configuration pages.
3. On the Wireless LAN menu, click Radios > Basic.
The Basic Radio table lists the available radios.
4. Right-click the radio in the table to configure and click Edit.
Radios are labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4.
The label on the back panel of each WavePoint 10e identifies what type of radio is
installed and which number corresponds to each installed radio.
5. In the Mode field, select the device's role in the network:
l Access Point - Indicates this WavePoint 10e is the device in the wireless
network.
l Many network settings are provided to Repeaters and Clients from the AP.
l Repeater -Repeaters communicate with the AP, another Repeater, or a Client.
l They are used to extend the physical distance of the network and allow wireless
clients to connect to wireless resources.
l Client - Clients communicate with Repeaters or the AP in the network.
l Clients are the ending points in the network topography.
6. Enter this information that identifies the AP in the wireless network:
a. In the SSID field, enter a case sensitive, alphanumeric name that identifies this
device in a wireless access list.
Note: All devices that attempt to connect to this wireless network must have
the same SSID.
b. Optional: Enter the BSSID device's physical MAC address.
