INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Pakedge WK‐2x 802.11ac Dual Band Access Point
As the central component of your wireless network, the WK‐2 can connect multiple computers, allowing you to
share files, audio, video, printers, a high‐speed Internet connection, and other resources. You can easily connect
devices that have a wireless adapter to the WK‐2x to create a secure, high‐speed link between your computers,
PDAs, and other electronics; And with the WK‐2x being able to broadcast both 2.4GHz and 5GHz signals
simultaneously, 5GHz capable wireless devices are now free to choose the best signal with the least noise and
interference, improving the overall stability, reliability and performance of the wireless network.
Each band (either 2.4GHz or 5GHz) of the WK‐2x can operate in any one of three modes:
•
Access Point Mode: This is the typical configuration for most Wi-Fi networks. In this mode, the
WK-2x broadcasts two Wi-Fi signals (2.4 GHz and 5GHz) that clients can associate with, as
shown in the figure below.
•
WDS Bridge Mode: In this mode, you can connect one WK-2x to a client by its Ethernet port, as
shown below. In Client Bridge Mode, the WK-2x can receive a wireless signal from an Access
WK-2x User Manual
Point and send the signal through its Ethernet port to a client. This mode is used when you
need to have network connectivity to hard wired device(s) but are unable to run cable to them.
•
WDS Repeater Mode: This can be used to connect two WK-2 access points wirelessly and extend
your wireless network coverage.
Because the functionality of the WK‐2x changes depending on its operating mode, this manual offers both general
and mode‐specific content.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

VLAN Management
If you enable VLAN tagging in the WK‐2x Wireless section under any of the SSIDs, you can choose a VLAN
Management ID for the WK‐2x to access the administrative functions of your WK‐2x. Let’s say you pick VLAN 3 to
be the VLAN used for management and the subnet range for VLAN 3 is 192.168.3.X. The IP address for the WX‐1x
must be 192.168.3.X, where X is any value in range.

WK-2x User Manual


Operation Mode: Both the 2.4 and the 5 GHz band have the following operating modes: Access Point, WDS
Root Access Point, WDS Repeater and WDS Bridge.
Access Point: Standard mode of operation. Allows a wireless connection to the LAN.
WDS Root Access Point: The access point with this mode set will be the “root” device that access
points configured with WDS Repeater and WDS Bridge will connect to.
WDS Repeater: This mode allows the access point to connect to a WDS Root Access Point. This
setting will take the SSID broadcasted by the WDS Root Access Point and rebroadcast it to end user
devices.
WDS Bridge: This mode allows the access point to connect to aWDS Root Access Point. This mode
takes in the SSID broadcasted by the WDS Root Access Point and turns it into Ethernet connectivity
for client devicess.
Wireless Mode: Choose the setting that corresponds to the type of wireless clients connected to your network:
B‐Only, G‐Only, B/G‐Mixed, N/G‐Mixed or B/G/N‐Mixed (on the 2.4GHz) or A‐Only, N‐Only, N/A‐Mixed, AC‐
Only, AC/N‐Mixed or A/AC/N‐Mixed (on the 5GHz). If you aren’t sure which type(s) of clients will access the
wireless networks, it’s recommended to choose B/G/N‐Mixed on the 2.4GHz and A/AC/N‐Mixed on the 5GHz
for best performance.
NOTE: When set to a mixed mode, ALL devices connected to the wireless will use the
mode that is compatible for ALL devices. Example – If you have the 2.4GHz Wireless
set to B/G/N Mixed and all connected devices use G, the speeds will slow accordingly.

Channel Mode: By default, the Channel Mode is set to HT 20MHz (when using 2.4GHz) and HT 80 MHz (when
using 5GHz). Selecting the HT 40 MHz channel mode on 2.4 GHz will allow for greater speeds, but at the risk of
also increasing interference.
Example: When using the 20 MHz channel width on the 2.4GHz band, channel 6 would bleed into
channels 4, 5, 7 and 8 giving you three non‐overlapping channels (1, 6 and 11). When using 40MHz
channel width on the 2.4GHz radio, channel 6 would bleed into channels 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

Channel – Using the default setting (Auto), the WK‐2x automatically selects the channel with best
performance for the wireless network. To select a channel manually, click the drop‐down list and select a
channel. The channel options available depend on the Country Code selected.

AP Detection – Click “Scan” to perform an automatic site survey. A new window will open and display the site
survey utility. The WX‐1x will scan the frequency for devices currently broadcasting their SSID, and then

Transmit Power: The power depends on the distance of the devices in your wireless network. From the
drop‐down list, select the desired power. You can use this feature to limit the coverage area of the
wireless network.
Maximum: This setting will broadcast at the maximum allowed mW for the channel selected if
Obey Regulatory Power is checked. If Obey Regulatory Power is not checked, then the maximum
30 dBm (1000 mW) will be broadcast.
Automatic: This setting will adjust the power of the access point based on the distance to the
furthest client device. The access point will lower its power if the furthest client is 10 feet away
and will raise the power if the furthest client is 100 feet away.
1 dBm (1 mW) – 30 dBm (1000 mW):These are static power settings. The access point will
broadcast at the selected power level.
Obey Regulatory Power:This feature will enable government mandated power levels per channel based
on the access point’s Country Code.

RTS/CTS Threshold: Enter the packet size threshold for RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send) to occur.
The primary reason for implementing this function is to minimize the collision between hidden stations,
which occurs when access points and wireless users are spread out in a location and there is a high
occurrence of retransmissions on the wireless LAN. Default setting is 2347.

Beacon Interval: Adjusting Beacon Interval will allow clients to sleep longer. Clients have to wake up for
every beacon, so this setting tells your client how many milliseconds it can sleep for (e.g., if BP = 100 your
stations are allowed to sleep for up to 100 ms).
