Section 1 About WAP11 V2.2 Introduction The 22 Mbps WAP11 V2.2 is a long-range, high performance and high powered LAN product, which provides WAP11 V2.2 services to a 2,4 GHz RF network and bridges to an Ethernet backbone. The design of this product is based on Taxes Instrument’ s ACX100 chip, a highly integrated ASIC designed to combine legacy LANs with wireless LANs. ACX100 performs all the necessary inter-networking and bridging functions.
1. Remote access to corporate network information E-mail, file transfer and terminal emulation 2. Difficult-to-wire environments Historical or listed buildings, asbestos installations, and open area where wiring is difficult to employ 3. Frequently changing environments Retailers, manufacturers and banks who frequently rearrange the workplace and change location 4.
Section 2 Hardware Installation 2-1 Equipment Requirement Installation requirement: 1. An A/C power outlet (100~240V,50~60Hz) which supply the power for the WAP11 V2.2 2. A 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX (UTP) Ethernet cable drop (RJ-45 connector) 2-2 Hardware Installation Please follow these procedures while setting up the hardware: 1. Site Selection Choose a proper location for your WAP11 v2.2. In general, the best location to place your WAP11 v2.
Section 3 Configuring WAP11 V2.2 3-1 Installing and Configuring WAP11 V2.2 The WAP11 V2.2 can be configured using the web browser from Windows ® 98/2000/ME/XP. You need to plug the direct network cable to the LAN port then start your web browser and type http://192.168.1.1 in the address box. This number is the default IP address of your WAP11 V2.2. A user name and password prompt will appear. Type in “admin” as user name and “admin” as the password. Click “Ok”.
On the Setup page, you are able to find: Ø The current firmware version and dates. Ø LAN IP Address Ø Wireless setting You may “Enable” or “Disable” wireless services, if you choose to enable it, please setup your “ESSID” and “Channel” numbers. You may also disable the WEP or change it to “Mandatory” by clicking “WEP Key Setting”. By clicking “WEP Key Setting”, it will prompt you a message, click “ok” to continue.
WEP Encryption key can be generated in one of two ways: 1. You can create an encryption key by using a Passphrase. To generate the encryption key using a passphrase, enter a text string in the Passphrase box and press the Generte button. The passphrase can be any text string with a maximum of 31 alphanumeric characters. 2. You may enter the encryption key manually. Click the “Apply” button to complete the encryption setup. Password You may reset the password in this page. Click “Apply” when complete.
When you click on “backup” it will prompt you a location to save the “config.bin”file. When you try to restore the settings you have saved, click “Browse” to locate the file and perform the restore procedure. Log You may enable or disable the logging and send the log to different location within your network.
Help From the help page, you may find various help files to help you setup or upgrade your firmware for your access point. For Firmware upgrade, click “Browse” and locate the file, click “Send” to perform the upgrade.
Advanced Setup On this page, you will find the Firmware version plus following settings: Beacon Interval – By default, it is set to 100mps. RTS Threshold – By default, it is set to 2432. The value should remain on its default setting 2432 bytes. If you encounter any date flow, only minor modifications are recommended. Fragmentation Threshold – By default, it is set to 2346. The value indicates how much of the network resources devoted to recovering packet errors.
