3.2.2.1 Wireless AP only
When you are in the AP only mode, you can set up the basic wireless
functions as below:
40
AP setting:
SSID: The SSID identifies a specific wireless LAN. Before associating
with a particular wireless LAN, a station must have the same SSID as
the access point. The default SSID setting is “MGB100”. NOTE:
Please DO NOT set the same SSID with your current wireless
network.
Channel: The radio channel number. The default channel is “6”.
NOTE: Please DO NOT set the same Channel with your current
wireless network.
Authentication: Authentication ensures that digital data transmissions
are delivered to the intended receiver. This option enables you to set
41
the authentication method for various encryption schemes for the
selected AP.
Open or shared WEP Encryption: Select “64” or “128” bits in the
pull-down menu for encryption method to protect your data by
encrypting it. The WEP key can be 5~13 ASII characters or 10~26
hexadecimal characters based on whether you select 64 bit or 128 bit
WEP encryption.
802.1X: IEEE802.1x authentication can be done by using an external
RADIUS server.
Please input the IP address of RADIUS server and Shared Secret.
Please refer to FAQ in Chapter 7 to get more detailed information.
WPA-PSK: AP and Client need to use identical Pre-shared key (PSK).
Please input 64 Hex key (0~F) or 8~63 characters in ASCII Type.
Note. This device only supports WPA version 1.

Protocol (EAP) to authenticate wireless clients using an external
RADIUS server.
42
Please input the IP address of RADIUS and Shared Secret.
Please refer to FAQ in Chapter 7 to get more detailed information.
Advance Setting:
43
z
Wireless mode: 11b/g mixed can let 11g or 11b computers both exist
on the network, but the speed will be reduced. Select 11g only for
maximum speed, but no 11b users will be allowed on the network.
Beacon interval: This represents the amount of time between beacon
transmissions. The interval tells receiving devices on the network
how long they can wait in low-power mode before waking up to
handle the beacon. Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to
synchronize a wireless network. Specify a Beacon interval value
between 1 and 1000. The default value is set to 100 milliseconds.
RTS Threshold: The RTS threshold specifies the packet size of an
RTS transmission. This helps control traffic flow through an access
point, especially one with many clients. The setting value range is
from 1 to 2347, and default value is set to 2347.
Fragmentation: In a network, the maximum size or length of a
fragment is determined by the protocol used to transport the data.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. If you
experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase your
"Fragmentation" value within the value range of 256 to 2346, even
number only. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in
poor performance.
DTM interval: A Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is a
countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to
broadcast and multicast messages. When the Access Point has
buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it
sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. AP clients hear the
beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast
messages. Enter a value from 1 to 255 for DTIM. The default value
44
for DTIM interval is set to 3.
Preamble Type: The Preamble Type defines the length of the CRC
(Cyclic Redundancy Check) block for communication between the
Access Point and roaming wireless adapters.
SSID Broadcast: Enable or Disable a SSID broadcast. When
enabled, the SSID of MGB100 is sent to wireless enabled devices on
the LAN.
Press “Next” button, you could see the Wireless MAC Filtering setting.
The default setting is “Disable Mac filtering”, every wireless client could
connect to this AP. When you select “ALL accept”, the wireless clients with
45
the MAC addresses you enter bellow will be accepted to connect to this AP,
the others will be rejected. When you select “ALL Reject”, the wireless clients
with the MAC addresses you enter bellow will be rejected to connect to this
AP, the others will be accepted.

What can I do when I have some trouble in the first time?
1. How do I make the client to connect the MGB100?
A: Please prepare for one RJ45 cable and connect the LAN port directly.
MGB100 already supports MDI/MDIX.
2. How to “Reset to default”?
A: Press the buttons of “Shutdown” and “Backup” simultaneously over 6
seconds to reset the system to the factory default setting.
3. When I login the storage of MGB100 via my network place, but I can
not find any files of Folders even if I have plugged HDD in MGB100.
A: First, check your HD status LED. If the HD is correctly connected, the HD
status LED will flash. If the LED didn’t flash, maybe you forget to format
the new HD before using it, or maybe the HD is not connected correctly,
or maybe the HD is corrupted.
® MGB100 supports FAT/FAT32/EXT2 file systems. If the format of HDD
is NTFS, the device just can read files and can not copy any files to NTFS
folders.
4. No matter what I do, I can not configure MGB100 even if I setup fixed
IP and can search or Ping MGB100.
A: Please check the WLAN Led or HDD LED. If normal, they will be flash.
Otherwise Reset to Default and try it again.
62
5. I can not save the file which size is large than 2GB.
A: Please check the file system of your HDD. If it is FAT or FAT32. This
problem is existed. Suggestion: To convert to ext2.
6. I can’t access the shared folder with 98/Me.
A: If you use Windows 98/Me, and want to access the authorized folder, you
MUST have the same account and password in MGB100 and your
computer.
7. Why do I see the wrong name of file during the setting or in the my
network place?
A: Please select the language as you need. Please configure again.
63
How to setup wireless function?
1. How can I use the wireless function?
A: Generally speaking, there are four modes to setup in this device. The
common function is “AP mode”. The user can make this device as
Wireless AP device as follows:
First, the wireless client sets up the same SSID with MGB100 and get IP
from Router. Then Wireless client can associate the network or roam
Internet via Router.
64
Wireless Client Mode: First, please configure the wireless setting of
MGB100 via wire. Then use Scan AP of AP-List and join it. Plug up the
cable form MGB100. The client from LAN can use “Configure” utility to
Query.
WDS only mode: WDSÆWireless Distribution system. This device also
supports this function. How to configure this in your circumstance? The
65
below Figure1 is for the reference. First, check which channel you want to
use. For example, channel 10. Scan other AP which channel is 10 and
supports WDS function. Second, add the wireless MAC address of
MGB100 in this Wireless Router # 2. (Figure2). And use Scan AP to find
the wireless which SSID is “WR-2” and join it in the list. Third, if it is normal,
LAN-Host#1 can find the devices, like Wireless Router #2 and
LAN-Host#2.

Figure2:
WDS Hybrid mode: This device also supports WDS and AP mode at the
same time. How to configure this in your circumstance? The below figure
is for the reference.

4. Set RADIUS server IP.
5. Set RADIUS server shared key.
6. Configure WEP key and 802.1X setting.
The following test will use the inbuilt 802.1X authentication method such
as EAP_TLS, PEAP_CHAPv2 (Windows XP with SP1 only), and
PEAP_TLS (Windows XP with SP1 only) using the Smart Card or other
Certificate of the Windows XP Professional.
„
DUT and Windows 2000 RADIUS Server Setup
1. Setup Windows 2000 RADIUS Server. We have to change
authentication method to MD5_Challenge or using smart card or other
certificate on RADIUS server according to the test condition.
2. Setup DUT
Enable the 802.1X (check the “Enable checkbox“).
69
9
Enter the RADIUS server IP.
Enter the shared key. (The key shared by the RADIUS server
and DUT).
We will change 802.1X encryption key length to fit the
variable test condition.
3. Setup Network adapter on PC
Choose the IEEE 802.1X as the authentication method.
(Figure 2)
Note. Figure 2 is a setting picture of Windows XP without service
pack 1. If users upgrade to service pack 1, then they can’t see
MD5-Challenge from EAP type list any more, but they will get a
new Protected EAP (PEAP) option.
Choose MD5-Challenge or Smart Card or other Certificate as
the EAP type.
If choosing use smart card or the certificate as the EAP type,
we select to use certificate on this computer.
We will change EAP type to fit the variable test condition.

Problems of security level
1. Why can’t I access the file from my places after enabling Security
Level?
A: Sometimes, I can not access the folders via my places after enabling
Security Level, like below:
If the user sees the warning message, please restart windows and try it
again. But there are some situations that the users can not access this
folder if even they input correct the account and password as below:
75
Situation 1: The users can access the files or folders before MGB100 is
not enabled “security Level”. But when MGB100 is enabled it, the
authorization users can not login by inputting the account and password.
Please restart your window OS and It can be accessed.
Situation 2: Change the account and password of MGB100. In brief, the
users have some Limit authority to access the folders, but if someone
changes account and password this time, other authorization users can
not access at all. Please restart your window OS.
This is because the windows will cache some records so that the settings
can not work immediately and the users have no idea to restart the device.
2. How do I configure the authority of file-shared by my places and ftp
service?
A: Take an example as follows:
First, Set account 123 and password 12345.
Then Click Configure the shared directory.
76
Create two folders. One is “read”, and the other is “write”. The authority is
as follows:
Then click the User Access Configuration and save “Security Level”.
77
Use search MGB100 hostname, if you can not access the directory
“Storage”.
Then you will find the MGB100 and will find some folders, like read, write
and Storage.
78
If you are a guest and you just can copy the files in the folder ”read” and
copy, move and delete the files or folders in the folder ”write”.
※But if you are an Authorization user. Anyway you directly click the
folders “read and write”. However, you just have the same limits of
authority with guests. Please login the folder “Storage” to begin.
This product also defines two user-level(Guest and Authorization users) to
share files by ftp service.
The configuration is the same with above. There are two folders to share.
If the users use guest to login ftp service, he just accesses read or write
folders. Or login as Authorization users, he can access all.
