OVERVIEW
Caution: Your ESTeem hardware may have antennas
other than the AA01S listed in Figure 1, but you must
have an antenna connected to the antenna port before
applying power to the unit.
The ESTeem Model 192E is a wireless LAN transceiver
that can be configured as the center point of a standalone wireless network, connection point between
wireless and wired network (Access Point) or a bridge
between Ethernet segments. Each configuration is
explained in detail in Chapter 2 of this manual. This
section of the User’s Manual will complete the basic
configuration of the system and allow further
programming through the ESTeem Configuration Menu.
INSTALLING SOFTWARE
The ESTeem Utility Program is designed to provide the
ESTeem user access to the configuration menu of the
ESTeem Model 192E. The Utility contains a Terminal
Emulation program that will allow direct access to the
management menus of the modem. None of the other
sections of this utility, such as Diagnostics will function
with the Model 192E. The ESTeem Utility Program is
designed to operate with Windows 95®, Windows 98®
and Windows NT® 4.0 and greater.
The ESTeem Model 192E uses a menu-driven
management system for configuration and diagnostics.
This management system can be accessed through a
Telnet network connection or through any terminal
emulation program. To link through the network
connection, some of the basic operating parameters such
as assigning the ESTeem an IP address and Subnet mask
must be completed by accessing the configuration menu
through the serial port. Any terminal emulation program
can be used for this configuration of the ESTeem and
will be configured similarly, but this section of the
manual will describe basic configuration of the ESTeem
Model 192E using the Terminal Emulation program
contained on the ESTeem Utility Program CD-ROM.

recommended for network privacy. They do require
extensive network administration, but if used correctly
they can provide the same level of security as a wired
network.
11. If WEP security is going to be used in the bridge
network, select Encryption Enabled (1) and
value will change to “True”.
12. If you wish to keep clients without the correct WEP
code from entering your bridge network, set Exclude
unencrypted clients (2) to “True” otherwise
set to “False”. If this value is set to “False”, the
Access Point will allow clients without the correct
WEP code and those with the correct WEP code to
join the network as long as all SSID codes match.

Figure 10: Repeater Configuration
As the name would imply, this type of network is a
combination of an Access Point network and an Ethernet
Bridging network. This type of network would provide
both communication to a Building LAN network from a
remote Model 192E and also provide wireless access to
the network for the wireless cards. This type of network
requires two ESTeem Model 192E modems and at least a
three port Ethernet HUB. Figure 11 shows a combined
network. Follow the steps for configuring the Access
Point, Master and Client Bridges in this chapter to
complete the ESTeem Model 192E programming.

SERIAL INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
ETHERNET INTERFACE
The ESTeem Model 192E has a standard RS-232C, 9-pin
Female connector for interfacing directly with the serial
port on the computer. Use ESTeem part number AA062
to interface the Model 192E with a 9-pin serial port on a
computer.
The ESTeem Model 192E’s Ethernet Port is configured
to directly interface with an Ethernet HUB using a
straight through 10BaseT cable. If the ESTeem is
connected to a network interface card (NIC), you will
need to use 10BaseT reversing cable.
The serial port on the ESTeem Model 192E can be used
to access the configuration menu in the ESTeem for
system and network configuration. The ESTeem
communications port operates at 19,200 bps, No Parity, 8
Data Bits and 1 Stop Bit (19,200,N,8,1). Configure your
terminal program to match these settings.
