Product Overview
Features
Supports Draft IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11b/g
With support for current Wireless-N, Wireless-G, and Wireless-B standards, the AirStation can transfer
data to and from all standard 2.4 GHz wireless clients.
Dual speed mode
Dual speed mode makes wireless transmission faster by using 2 channels, allowing 300 Mbps data
transmission.
Support AOSS and WPS
Both AOSS (AirStation One-touch Secure System) and WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) are supported.
These automatic connection standards make connection with compatable wireless devices easier.
Security Features
The AirStation is equipped with following security features:
• AOSS
• WPS
• WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES)
• WPA2-PSK(TKIP/AES)
• WPA/WPA2 mixed PSK
• WEP(128/64bit)
• Privacy Separator
• MAC address access restriction
• Deny Any Connection/SSID stealth feature
• Setting screen with password
• Wireless transmission output restriction
• Firewall feature with easy rules
Automatic Channel Selection
Monitors wireless interference and automatically assigns the clearest, best channel.
Roaming
You can use multiple AirStations to cover a large area. Wireless clients can automatically switch
AirStations for the best signal.
WHR-HP-GN User Manual
Chapter 1 Product Overview
Initialization
To restore settings back to the factory defaults, hold down the Reset button on the bottom of the
unit.
Browser Based Administration
This unit can be easily configured from a web browser on your computer.
Auto Mode (Router/Bridge Automatic Recognition)
Auto mode detects whether your network has a router or not and automatically switches to the
appropriate router or bridge mode. You can also manually switch between modes. (See page 10).
Air Navigator CD Requirements
The AirStation wireless router and access point works with most wired and wireless devices. The
automatic installation program on the CD requires Windows Vista or XP to run. Client Manager
software is included for Windows Vista and XP/2000. The use of other operating systems may require
that the AirStation be manually configured from a browser window.
150 Mbps High Speed Mode
150 Mbps is the link speed when using Wireless-N mode. It represents actual wireless data speeds,
including overhead. Because the overhead is not available for user data transfer, usable wireless
throughput will be substantially slower.
