2. The Model 195Eg will link to other Model 195Eg’s on the network via the WLAN Media Access Control
(MAC) address found on the bottom of the case. This MAC address is six hexadecimal digits separated by
colons and is configured at the factory. Every MAC address in the world is unique and can not be changed.
Complete the following chart to aid in your configuration:
Name
Example Modem 1
Serial Number
E-14001
IP Address
172.16.8.101
Ethernet MAC
00:04:3f:00:01:01
WLAN MAC
00:04:3f:00:01:02
3. Configuration of the Model 195Eg is completed through the product’s internal web server. To access this
configuration page, you will need to enter the 195Eg’s IP address in your web browser. The IP address set at
the factory is Class B (i.e. 172.16.x.x) address and is printed on the Quality Assurance sheet sent with each
195Eg. If the factory default address matches your network configuration, please proceed to Using Setup,
otherwise continue to step 4.
4. Install the ESTeem Discovery Utility. The ESTeem Discovery Utility will allow you to configure the IP
address on the Model 195Eg to match your network. Install the Discovery Utility on your computer by
inserting the Resource Disk in your CD drive.
Note: The ESTeem Resource Disk is stand-alone copy of the ESTeem Web site (Figure 1). Navigation of the
Resource Disk is as simple as using your web browser. All technical documentation, User’s Manuals and the
ESTeem Utility Program is available on the disk.
Place the ESTeem Utility CD in your CD-ROM drive. The CD will auto load the ESTeem main page
Note: If the page does not auto load, open your web browser and set your address line to D:\1_default.html
(Where D: is the drive letter for your CD-ROM drive).
Figure 1 –ESTeem Resource Disk Main Page
From the Main Page select ESTeem Utilities and click on
Download ESTeem Discovery Utility.
Note: This program is saved in a compressed file format.
Microsoft Windows XP® will open the file directly, but
other operating systems will require a common
compression program such as WinZip available for
download at http://www.winzip.com
Double click on the 195EdiscoverySetup.exe file listed in
the window to install the program.
5. Set IP Address on the 195Eg. Connect the Model
195Eg to your computer either direct to the Ethernet
card or through a HUB/Switch using a CAT-5e

Ethernet cable. The Ethernet port on the 195Eg
supports Auto-Negotiation so either a patch cable or crossover cable will work. Open the ESTeem Discovery
Program and press the Discover Modems button. The Model 195Eg will be displayed in the program by the
Ethernet MAC address and Current IP Address (Figure 3).
Note: The SSID and Mode of Operation will be adjusted later in the configuration.
Figure 3 – Discovery Program Main Page
Double-click on the 195Eg you wish to program and the Configure IP Address window will be displayed
(Figure 4). Enter an IP address and Subnet Mask for the 195Eg that matches your network subnet and press
the OK button to save this to the ESTeem. You will receive notification that the Configuration was Successful
and the 195Eg will reboot. Proceed to ESTeem Setup to continue configuration.

Testing Communication Link
After you have configured at least two of the Model 195Eg wireless Ethernet modems for operation, you can
verify communication with each the following steps:
Status LED
Solid Red on Link
Status Light – The quickest source of link status is to
view the Status Light on the face of the 195Eg. If the
Status light is solid, the Model 195Eg has a
connection to another Model 195Eg listed in the Peer
Table.
Status Screen/Peer Table – To view further
information on the status of the communication link
(such as connection speed, signal strength and last
update time) you can open the Status Screen from the Web Interface. After press the Status tab at the top of the
screen the Status: Summary will be displayed showing the status of all ports and memory in the 195Eg. Under the
Wireless Status heading click on the View Peer Table (Figure 5). The Peer Table will list all other 802.11b or
802.11g wireless activity seen by the 195Eg and how it is classified.
Opposite Modem’s Wireless MAC
Signal Strength (dBm)
Last Packet Received
Other Access Points
Figure 5 – Repeater Peer Table
Find the opposite 195Eg in the Repeater Peers list and information such as signal strength (in dBm) and
time/speed of last data packet will be displayed.
Note: The data rate displayed is not necessarily indicative of the RF data rate between the ESTeems. The rate
show in the Repeater Peer table will be the last RF packet, which could consist of either data, repeater beacon or
network probes. For a detailed analysis on the data rate, please consult the ESTeem User’s manual.
11
Ping Testing – The easiest method for testing the efficiency of data flow between the ESTeems is to conduct a
Ping test to the opposite modem’s IP address. This will test all links in the Ethernet bridge.
