5  1 Introduction The MR900V2 is a high-powered, long-range dual-band concurrent wireless 802.11a/b/g/n access point with four major functional modes. The MR900V2 is designed to operate in numerous environments from large homes, small and medium-sized businesses, multiple-floor offices, hotels and other venues to larger enterprise deployments. Its high-powered, long-range characteristics make it a cost-effective alternative to ordinary access points that don’t have the range and reach to connect to a growing number of wireless users who wish to connect to a large home or business network.  The  MR900V2  supports  the  2.4GHz  frequency  band  under  802.11  b/g/n  mode  while  at  the  same  time  providing  5GHz band for communicating or transferring files in a less congested network frequency band.  The MR900V2 delivers up to 6x faster wireless speeds and 7x extended coverage than legacy 802.11a/b/g wireless devices. Even though the MR900V2 has been designed and engineered for traffic heavy and demanding business environments it is also quite at home in larger house scenarios because it efficiently extends the wireless range of an existing home router, especially in very architecturally-challenging structures to provide whole home connectivity.  To  protect  sensitive  data  during  wireless  transmissions,  the  MR900V2  offers  different  encryption  settings  for  wireless transmissions including industry-standard WPA and WPA2 encryption. The MR900V2 also includes MAC address filtering to allow network administrators to offer network access only to known computers and other devices based on their MAC addresses.

The  following  list  describes  some  of  the  many applications made possible through the power and flexibility of WLANs: a) Difficult-to-Wire Environments There are many situations where wires cannot be installed or deployed easily or cannot be hidden from view. Older
8  buildings,  sites  with  multiple  buildings,  and/or  areas  make  the  installation  of  a  Ethernet-based  LAN  impossible, impractical or expensive. b) Temporary Workgroups Create  temporary  workgroups/networks  in  more  open  areas  within  a  building  –  auditoriums,  amphitheater classrooms,  ballrooms,  arenas,  exhibition  centers,  temporary  offices  where  one  wants  either  a  permanent  or temporary Wireless LAN established. c) The Ability to Access Real-Time Information Doctors/Nurses, Point-of-Sale Employees, and/or Warehouse Workers can access real-time information while dealing with patients, serving customers, and/or processing information. d) Frequently Changing Environments Set up networks in environments that change frequently (i.e.: Show Rooms, Exhibits, etc.). e) Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) Networks SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small network. f) Wireless Extensions to Existing Ethernet-based Networks Devices like the MR900V2 enable network administrators, installers and end-users to extend the range and reach of an existing Ethernet-based network. g) Training/Educational Facilities Training  sites  at  corporations  or  students  at  universities  use  wireless  connectivity  to  ease  access  to  information, information exchanges, and learning.
9  2 Before you Begin This  section  will  guide  you  through  the  installation  process.  Placement  of  the  OPEN  MESH  MR900V2  is  essential  to maximize the access point’s performance. Avoid placing the MR900V2 in an enclosed space such as a closet, cabinet, or stairwell.  2.1 Considerations for Wireless Installation The operating distance of all wireless devices  cannot be pre-determined due to a number of unknown obstacles in the environment that the device is deployed in. These could be the number, thickness, and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the MR900V2’s wireless signals must  pass through. Here are some key guidelines to allow the MR900V2 to have optimal wireless range.   Keep the number of walls and/or ceilings between the MR900V2 and other network devices to a minimum. Each wall and/or ceiling can reduce the signal strength, resulting in lower signal strength.   Building materials makes a difference. A solid metal door and/or aluminum stubs may have a significant negative effect on the signal strength of the MR900V2. Locate your wireless devices carefully so the signal can pass through a drywall and/or open doorways. Materials such as glass, steel, metal, concrete, water (example: fish tanks), mirrors, file cabinets and/or brick can also diminish wireless signal strength.   Interference from your other electrical devices and/or appliances that generate RF noise can also diminish the MR900V2’s signal strength.  The most common types of devices are microwaves or cordless phones.

22  4 Building a Wireless Network The MR900V2 has the ability to operate in various modes. This chapter describes the operating modes of the MR900V2. 4.1 Access Point Mode In Access Point Mode, MR900V2 behaves likes a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n networks. The stations and clients must be configured to use the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security password to associate with the MR900V2. The MR900V2 supports up to eight SSIDs at the same time for secure access.
23  4.2 WDS AP Mode The MR900V2 also supports WDS AP mode. This operating mode allows wireless connections to the MR900V2 using WDS technology. In this mode, configure the MAC addresses in both Access Points to enlarge the wireless area by enabling WDS Link settings. WDS supports four AP MAC addresses.
24  4.3 WDS Bridge Mode In WDS Bridge Mode, the MR900V2 can wirelessly connect different LANs by configuring the MAC address and security settings of each MR900V2 device. Use this mode when two wired LANs located a small distance apart want to communicate with each other. The best solution is to use the MR900V2 to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as shown in the following figure.  WDS Bridge Mode can establish four WDS links, creating a star-like network.     Note: WDS Bridge Mode does not act as an Access Point. Access Points linked by WDS are using the same frequency channel. More Access Points connected together may lower throughput. This configuration can be susceptible to generate endless network loops in your network, so it is recommended to enable the Spanning Tree function to prevent this from happening.
25  4.4 Repeater mode The Repeater mode is used to regenerate or replicate signals from a wireless router or other access point/station that is unable to reach certain areas in a building. When this mode is activated in the MR900V2, the MR900V2 receives the wireless signal from an existing router or AP and relays it to other devices within its range so they can join the network.
26  5   Status The  Status  section  contains  the  following  options:  Main,  2.4G/5G  Wireless  Client  List,  2.4G/5G  Connection  Status, 2.4G/5G WDS Link List and System Log.
