1 Introduction
The
ERA150
is a high-powered, long-range wall mount wireless 802.11b/g/n access point with two major functional
modes. The ERA150 was 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 ERA150 delivers up to 3x faster wireless speeds and 7x extended coverage than legacy 802.11b/g wireless devices.
Even though the ERA150 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 ERA150 offers different encryption settings for wireless
transmissions including industry-standard WPA and WPA2 encryption. The ERA150 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.

2 Before you Begin
This section will guide you through the installation process. Placement of the ENGENIUS ERA150 is essential to maximize
the ERA150’s performance. Avoid placing the ERA150 in an enclosed space such as a closet, cabinet, or wardrobe.
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 ERA150’s wireless signals must pass through. Here are some key guidelines to allow the ERA150 to have
optimal wireless range.
Keep the number of walls and/or ceilings between the ERA150 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 ERA150. 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 lower your wireless signal strength.
Interferences can also come from your other electrical devices and/or appliances that generate RF noise. The most
usual types are microwaves, or cordless phones.

4 Building a Wireless Network
The ERA150 has the ability to operate in various modes. This chapter describes the operating modes of the ERA150.
4.1 Access Point Mode
In Access Point Mode, ERA150 behaves likes a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11b/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 ERA150. The ERA150 supports up to four SSIDs at the same time for secure guest access.
21
4.2 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 ERA150, the ERA150 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.
