Installation WARNING! Hard drives and storage enclosures require careful handling, especially when being transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk, lost data may result. Always handle your hard drive and storage device with caution. Be sure that you are properly grounded by wearing an anti-static strap when handling computer components or discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds.
4. Place the side panel back onto the enclosure, making sure to properly line up the latches before snapping the cover into place. AP Mode Setup In this mode, the WiFi Enclosure will act as a wireless access point (AP), enabling computers with wireless adapters to connect to it. All connected clients will then be able to access the resources of the WiFi Enclosure.
Client Mode Setup Computer In this mode, the WiFi Enclosure will act as a wireless adapter for a host computer system through a standard Ethernet port. This will allow the host computer to wirelessly connect to an existing wireless AP, while being able to access the resources of the WiFi Enclosure. Other clients connected to the wireless AP will also be able to access the resources on the WiFi Enclosure. Modem/Router 1.
Driver Installation No drivers are required to be installed to access the date on the WiFi Enclosure through USB mode. An optional client software for Windows operating systems is available to make locating and configuring the enclosure simple (AP and Client Scan settings only), for those whom do not wish to use the web interface. 1. To install the client software, insert the included Software CD into the computers CD/DVD drive. 2.
How to Use Once the hardware has been setup, changes to the network configuration may be necessary. These changes can be made either through the built-in web interface, or the Client software (Windows only). Web Interface A built-in web server offers a convenient interface for accessing the hard drive contents, as well as network configuration and the built-in Bit Torrent client and general maintenance and setup options of the WiFi Enclosure.
Setting The network settings for the WiFi Enclosure can be configured from this section. Settings specific for each mode can be accessed by clicking on the appropriate link/image. For AP mode, the wireless network name (SSID), security settings and IP addresses and WAN Port can be configured. For Client Scan mode, the list of available wireless networks and preferred networks (saved settings) will be listed.
Maintenance Updates to the firmware and software on the WiFi Enclosure can be performed from this section, as well as rebooting and shutting down the enclosure. The latest firmware can be downloaded from the StarTech.com website (www.startech.com). The Disk Format utility is found here and can be used to format the SATA drive and create one or two partitions. NOTE: The web interface will only recognize up to 2 partitions on the hard drive.
While logged in as the Admin account, you can set access rights/permissions for files and folders by clicking on the round icon under the “Action” heading on the far right side of each folder. The icon next to this is for the rename action, which allows for renaming files and folders. Access Rights Rename BitTorrent A built-in BitTorrent client (Transmission BT) allows for computer-less (standalone) downloading of files through the BitTorrent peer-to-peer (P2P)protocol.
Configuration options for the BT client are accessible from the Preferences settings button in the bottom left corner. Settings such as download/upload speeds, schedules and port configuration are available. Client Software (Windows only) The client software can be used as an alternative to the web interface to configure the WiFi Enclosure and access some of it’s features. While connected to the same network as the enclosure (either AP or Client Scan modes), click on the “Search” button.
Samba (SMB)/ FTP Access Once the WiFi Enclosure has been properly configured, the files and folders on the WiFi Enclosure can be accessed directly through SMB or FTP with the appropriate client software. SMB and FTP access are enabled by default, but can be disabled (or re-enabled) from the web interface’s System Settings -> Status page. Many FTP clients are available for any operating system, so please consult the software’s documentation for exact setup details.
Using the Storage Device (USB Mode) Windows 2000/ XP/ Vista/ 7/ 8 If you are using a brand new hard drive that does not contain any data, then you will first need to prepare the hard drive for use. From the main desktop, right-click on “My Computer” (“Computer” in Vista/ 7), then select Manage. In the new Computer Management window, select Disk Management from the left window panel.
The New Partition Wizard will appear. Follow the instructions in the wizard to complete setting up the drive. Once complete, the Disk should show up as “Healthy” with a drive letter assigned (i.e. E:). This drive letter should now appear within My Computer. If you are installing a hard drive that already has data on it, then after plugging it in, the drive should automatically show up with a drive letter assigned within My Computer.
