How Do I Mount the DPH650 on the Wall? 5 Are you mounting the DPH650 into a drywall or concrete surface where a wooden stud is not available? If yes, drive the anchor bolts into the wall and then go to step 6. If no, go to step 6. 6 Install the mounting screws into the wall or the anchor bolts, as appropriate, and leave a gap of about 1/4-in. between the screw head and the wall. 7 Verify that no cables or wires are connected to the DPH650. 8 Lift the DPH650 into position.
Connecting the DPH650 for Wireless Networks Connecting the DPH650 for Wireless Networks WARNING: To avoid personal injury or damage to your equipment, follow these steps in the exact order shown. Power off your PC and unplug it from the power source. 1 Connect your PC to the ETHERNET port using the appropriate data cable. 2 Connect the active RF coaxial cable to the CABLE connector. Use an optional cable signal splitter to add a TV, a DHCT or set-top converter, or a VCR.
Configure the DPH650 Configure the DPH650 To configure the DPH650, you must first access the web configuration pages. Accessing the Web Configuration Pages To gain access to the web configuration pages, you must first configure you computer's TCP/IP settings and change your computer's IP address to 192.168.1.x (where X represents any number from 1 to 249).
Configure the DPH650 Network Name: Enter the wireless network's SSID (Service Set Identifier)in the field. The DPH650 supports multiple SSIDs. You may enter up to 3 SSIDs in the fields provided. Broadcast Network Name(SSID): You may enable/disable the broadcasting of your SSID. If you choose to disable the SSID, you will not see the DPH650 when you use site survey to search available wireless networks. BSSID: Identifies the Basic Service Set Identifier.
Configure the DPH650 Wifi-multimedia You can enable Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) support to help improve the Quality of Service (QoS) for your wireless traffic. We recommend that you leave the settings unchanged if you are not sure with your configuration. Changing the values may lead to unexpected blockages of traffic on your wireless LAN; the blockages may be difficult to diagnose.
Configure the DPH650 EDCA STA Parameters: Each station maintains a Contention Window (CW), which is used to select the random back off counter. The BC is determined as a random integer drawn from a uniform distribution over the interval (0, CW). The CW size is initially assigned CWmin, and increases when a transmission fails, i.e., the transmitted data frame has not been acknowledged. After any unsuccessful transmission attempt, another back off timer is performed, with an upper bound of CWmax.
Configure the DPH650 TXOPLimit: Allows multiple MAC frames consecutively as long as the whole transmission time does not exceed the TXOP limit. For delay-sensitive date, keep this limit larger. ACM: Admission Mandatory; could be turned on to mandatory execution of the contention control. Wireless Security You may setup the encryption method for your wireless network to better protect you wireless networks. Security Mode Open: For this type of security mode, your wireless connection is unprotected.
Configure the DPH650 Wireless WPS The Wi-Fi Protected Setup(WPS) has aimed to ease the setup of the wireless security. You may choose to use this method if your client adapter has also supported WPS. WPS: Allows wireless clients to be associated securely with the DPH650. WPS mode: Allows the Personal Information Number (PIN) or Push Button Configuration (PBC) method to be used to authorize a new client to the DPH650.
