INTRODUCTION
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Thank you and congratulations on your purchase of the ESTeem
Model 195Ed Wireless Ethernet Radio Modem! This manual was
written to help both the first time and advanced user of the 195Ed
configure the radio modem for your application. If this your first
time configuring the 195Ed and you would like to get going as soon
as possible, we recommend using the 195Ed Quick Start Guide
provided with the modem. A copy of the guide is listed in the
appendix of this manual for your reference.
The ESTeem 195Ed is a very versatile wireless Ethernet networking device. To keep the manual usably short, many of the
application descriptions and programming details assume the user has a good working knowledge of the following network
concepts:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
General Ethernet networking and the configuration of LAN topologies
Common Ethernet terminology and acronyms
TCP/IP network protocol structure and how to configure TCP/IP networks and subnets
How to identify and set the TCP/IP address on your computer
Have administrator privileges to the computer and network you are configuring
If using routing protocols, you must be able to identify and configure the network routers, gateways and firewalls
You must be familiar with using web browser software such as Internet Explorer, Netscape or Mozilla
If you are unfamiliar with any of the above networking concepts, you may need to contact your network administrator for
assistance.
MODEL 195Ed OVERVIEW
The ESTeem Model 195Ed is a wireless LAN
transceiver that can be used to build a Wireless
Local Area Network (WLAN) for line-of-sight
distances to 13 miles for fixed base and 5 miles
for mobile applications. The 195Ed can provide
RF data rates up to 54 Mbps and can have a serial
port for legacy RS-232 devices. The Model
195Ed is a very sophisticated networking device
that can be configured for multiple modes of
operation depending upon the needs of the
wireless and wired LAN system. The following
configuration modes are provided as an overview
of the basic network types, as all possible
network configurations can not be listed. For
further help in selecting the correct network type,
please contact Customer Support at 509-7359092.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
MODEL 195Ed CONFIGURATION MODES
The Model 195Ed can be configured for multiple
modes of operation without any changes to the
hardware:
Access Point Modes
1.
Access Point Bridge Mode. When the
Model 195Ed is configured as an Access
Point it will provide a wireless bridge from a
hardwired Local Area Network (LAN) to
other Model 195Ed modems in client modes.
Multiple Access Point Bridge modems can be
physically connected to the same network
(LAN) or through a radio link using the
Access Point Repeater mode to provide
overlapping, seamless Ethernet
communication for mobile devices. The
ESTeem Model 195Ed in Access Point
Bridge mode will pass all network traffic
between connected devices including global network broadcasts. See Figure 1.
Figure 2 – Repeater Mode Diagram
2.
Access Point Router Mode. In this mode the ESTeem Model 195Ed will function as a router between the wired Ethernet
network, connect to the 195Ed’s Ethernet port, and the wireless network of other 195Ed’s in repeater peer mode. As in all
standard router configurations, the wireless and wired Ethernet networks will need to be on separate subnets. To communicate
from the wired Ethernet network to devices on the wireless network, a separate router (or the Model 195Ed configured as a
router) is required. The 195Ed in Access Point Router mode will pass network traffic for connected devices but will block
global network broadcasts from the wired network. This mode of operation should be used instead of the Access Point Bridge
mode when a separation between networks is required or the ESTeem is connected to larger LAN Networks that will
continuously send global network broadcasts (Figure 2).
3.
Access Point Masquerade Mode.
The Access Point Masquerade mode is
a special use of the Access Point mode
where the Model 195Ed will connect
multiple clients into a single static IP
address on a wired network. Data
requests from the wireless network
will be processed through the Access
Point Masquerade 195Ed, but any
request from the wired Ethernet
network to devices on the wireless
network will be rejected similar to the
operation of a “firewall”. The 195Ed
will hide all the IP addresses
connected on the wireless link. You
should use this mode of operation if
Model 195Ed is connected directly to
the Internet with a static IP address
Figure 3- Access Point Masquerade Diagram

EST P/N AA107D
CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
(DSL, T1, etc.) and you want the wireless clients to access the information through the Model 195Ed (Figure 3). This mode
should also be used for attaching the Model 195Ed to a network where few IP addresses are available or a firewall for the
wireless clients is required.
4.
Access Point Repeater. The Access Point Repeater can be used with any of the above Access Point modes. With this
repeater feature enabled, the Model 195Ed Access Points do not have to be hardwired together on the same physical LAN to
provide seamless Ethernet communication for roaming clients. In addition to greatly extending the Access Point canopy range,
the Model 195Ed will also bridge any Ethernet device or Ethernet network connected to the unit over this same wireless
Ethernet network. This mode gives the user the features of a point to multi-point bridge network but also allows Model 195Ed
in the Client mode to simultaneously roam under the network canopy.
5.
Self-Healing Mesh Network. If multiple Access Point Repeater routes are configured to the same destination ESTeem, the
195Ed will create a “self-healing” mesh network by automatically re-routing data through alternate paths to reach its
destination if the primary path is inoperable. The routing and priority of alternate paths is completely user configurable.

6.
EtherStation Mode. When the 195Ed is configured in the EtherStation Mode and attached to a single Ethernet Device, the
Model 195Ed will emulate a wireless card in functionality for communication as a mobile client. The 195Ed will seamless
roam under the radio canopy of Access Point and can provide greatly increased range for mobile Ethernet devices such as
vehicles, forklifts, cranes, etc (Figures 1-3).
7.
Station Router Mode. The Station Router mode will also function as a client, similar to EtherStation, but will allow multiple
Ethernet devices to be connected to a single 195Ed (Figure 3). The 195Ed will function as a router between the wireless client
mode and the wired Ethernet devices connected to the Ethernet port. Similar in configuration to the Access Point Router
mode, the wireless and wired Ethernet networks will need to be on separate subnets. To communicate from wireless network
to devices on the wired Station Router network, a separate router (connected to the Ethernet side of the Access Point) is
Revised: 27 Jun 08
1-3
EST P/N AA107D
CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
required. This mode would be used where multiple Ethernet devices will be connected to a single Model 195Ed in a mobile
client application and the connected Ethernet devices will need to be accessible from the Access Point’s LAN network.
8.
Station Masquerade Mode. The Station Masquerade Mode is another mode where multiple devices will be connected to a
single ESTeem in a mobile or Client application, but unlike the Station Router mode, the Station Masquerate will consolidate
all connected Ethernet devices to a single IP address on the network. The devices connected to the Station Masquerade 195Ed
will be able to access information from both the wireless and wired LAN, but will be inaccessible the other way similar in
application to a firewall. This mode would be used where multiple Ethernet devices will be connected to a single Model
195Ed in a mobile application and the IP addresses for each device will be hidden from the LAN connected to the Access
Point. See Figure 3.
9.
Serial Applications. The ESTeem 195Ed can optionally be installed with an RS-232 data port for serial data applications run
over the broadband link (Figure 5). The serial over broadband network can be used in a point-to-point or point-to-multi-point
application for networking serial (RS-232c) devices, providing serial connections to legacy hardware in a new Ethernet
network or providing for high-bandwidth devices (such as Video or Voice over IP) in an existing serial network. Installing the
serial port option also provides a second 10/100 Base-T Ethernet port that can be used to connect a second Ethernet device
without requiring a HUB/Switch or can be configured as an external Router port.

OVERVIEW
Most configuration of the ESTeem Model 195Ed is completed using the internal Web interface (discussed in detail in Chapter 4),
but to access the modem through a web browser requires first setting the TCP/IP address. The TCP/IP address (IP address) is set at
the factory for a static Class B (172.16.xxx.xxx - Mask 255.255.0.0) and listed on the ESTeem documentation. If this IP address
does not match your network configuration, you will need to use either the ESTeem 195E Discovery program or the RS-232
interface to set the IP address in the 195Ed.
QUICK START GUIDE
A printed copy of the Model 195Ed Quick Start Guide was provided in the documentation package that arrived with your new
ESTeem 195Ed. This guide is an abbreviated step-by-step procedure on configuration of the 195Ed for most Ethernet bridging and
Access Point applications. A copy of the Quick Start Guide is provided in Appendix G of this User’s Manual for convenience.
