Applications
The wireless LAN products are easy to install and highly efficient. The following list describes
some of the many applications made possible through the power and flexibility of wireless
LANs:
a) Difficult-to-wire environments
There are many situations where wires cannot be laid easily. Historic buildings,
older buildings, open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs
either impossible or very expensive.
b) Temporary workgroups
Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibition centers, disaster-recovery,
temporary offices and construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN
established and removed.
c) The ability to access real-time information
Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can access
real-time information while dealing with patients, serving customers and
processing information.
d) Frequently changed environments
Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where
frequently rearrange the workplace.
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 Ethernet networks
Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused
by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless LANs.
g) Wired LAN backup
Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for missioncritical applications running on wired networks.
h) Training/Educational facilities
Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless
connectivity to ease access to information, information exchanges, and learning.
Network Configuration
To better understand how the wireless LAN products work together to create a wireless
network, it might be helpful to depict a few of the possible wireless LAN PC card network
configurations. The wireless LAN products can be configured as:
a) Ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) for departmental or SOHO LANs.
b) Infrastructure for enterprise LANs.
a) Ad-hoc (peer-to-peer) Mode
This is the simplest network configuration with several computers equipped
with the PC Cards that form a wireless network whenever they are within range
of one another. In ad-hoc mode, each client is peer-to-peer, would only have
access to the resources of the other client and does not require an access point.
EUB600 – Dual Band Wireless-N 300Mbps Media USB Adapter
This is the easiest and least expensive way for the SOHO to set up a wireless
network. The image below depicts a network in ad-hoc mode.
b) Infrastructure Mode
The infrastructure mode requires the use of an Access Point (AP). In this mode,
all wireless communication between two computers has to be via the AP. It
doesn’t matter if the AP is stand-alone or wired to an Ethernet network. If used
in stand-alone, the AP can extend the range of independent wireless LANs by
acting as a repeater, which effectively doubles the distance between wireless
stations. The image below depicts a network in infrastructure mode.
EUB600 – Dual Band Wireless-N 300Mbps Media USB Adapter
2 USB Adapter for Windows (XP, Vista and Win7)
Before You Begin
WiFi Alliance certification recommends WPA2 AES to be the security
mechanism under 11N mode. System driver will automatically bring down
wireless data rate to 54Mbps if other security method such as WEP or WPA
is used under 11n mode.
If your 11N router is using security mechanism other than WPA2 AES, you
are recommended to disable security setting or change it to WPA2 AES to
fully utilize 11N capability. This policy has no effect if connecting with b/g
only wireless access point.
During the installation, XP may need to copy systems files from its installation CD. Therefore,
you may need a copy of the Windows installation CD at hand before installing the drivers. On
many systems, instead of a CD, the necessary installation files are archived on the hard disk
in C:\WINDOWS \OPTIONS\CABS directory.

Authentication and Security
WiFi Alliance certification recommends WPA2 AES to be the security
mechanism under 11N mode. System driver will automatically bring down
wireless data rate to 54Mbps if other security method such as WEP or WPA is
used under 11n mode.
If your 11N router is using security mechanism other than WPA2 AES, you
are recommended to disable security setting or change it to WPA2 AES to fully
utilize 11N capability. This policy has no effect if connecting with b/g only
wireless access point.
This step allows you to configure the authentication and encryption settings such as:
WEP, WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2, and 802.1x. Each security option is described in detail
below.
WEP Encryption
The WEP tab displays the WEP settings. Encryption is designed to make the data
transmission more secure. You may select 64 or 128-bit WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
key to encrypt data (Default setting is Disable). WEP encrypts each frame transmitted
from the radio using one of the Keys from a panel. When you use WEP to communicate
with the other wireless clients, all the wireless devices in this network must have the
same encryption key or pass phrase. The following information is included in this tab, as
the image depicts below.
22
EUB600 – Dual Band Wireless-N 300Mbps Media USB Adapter
Authentication Type: Select Open or Shared from the drop-down list.
Encryption: Select WEP from the drop-down list.
Default TX Key: Choose the Key 1~Key4 you want to use.
WEP Key Format (Hex or ASCII): Type a character string into the field. For 64-bit
enter 5 alphanumeric or 10 hexadecimal characters. For 128-bit enter 13
alphanumeric or 26 hexadecimal characters.
Click on the right arrow button to save the changes.
WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK Authentication & TKIP, AES Encryption
WPA–PSK (Pre-shared Key) is used in a Pre Shared Key mode that does not require an
authentication server. Access to the Internet and the rest of the wireless network
services is allowed only if the pre-shared key of the computer matches that of the Access
Point. This approach offers the simplicity of the WEP key, but uses stronger TKIP
encryption. EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an extension to the PPP protocol
that enables a variety of authentication protocols to be used. It passes through the
exchange of authentication messages, allowing the authentication software stored in a
server to interact with its counterpart in the client.
Authentication Type: Select WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK from the drop-down list.
Encryption: Select TKIP or AES from the drop-down list.
Click on the right arrow button to next step.
WPA Preshared key: Enter a pass phrase which is between 8 and 63 characters long.

Profiles
The Profile tab is used to store the settings of multiple Access Points such as home,
office, café, etc. When adding a profile you are required to enter a profile name and SSID
as well as configure the power-saving mode, network type, RTS/fragmentation threshold
and encryption/authentication settings. A profile can be configured as Infrastructure or
Ad-hoc mode. The configuration settings for each mode are described below.
Infrastructure Mode
The infrastructure mode requires the use of an Access Point (AP). In this mode, all
wireless communication between two computers has to be via the AP. It doesn’t matter
if the AP is stand-alone or wired to an Ethernet network. If used in stand-alone, the AP
can extend the range of independent wireless LANs by acting as a repeater, which
effectively doubles the distance between wireless stations.
41

Ad-hoc Mode
This is the simplest network configuration with several computers equipped with the PC
Cards that form a wireless network whenever they are within range of one another. In
ad-hoc mode, each client is peer-to-peer, would only have access to the resources of the
other client and does not require an access point. This is the easiest and least expensive
way for the SOHO to set up a wireless network.
Profile: Enter a name for the profile; this does not need to be the same as the
SSID.
SSID: Enter the SSID of the network or select one from the drop-down list. The
SSID is a unique name shared among all points in your wireless network. The
SSID must be identical for all points in the network, and is case-sensitive.

Authentication and Security
The Security tab allows you to configure the authentication and encryption settings such
as: WEP, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK and 802.1x. Each security option is described in detail
below.
WEP Encryption
The WEP tab displays the WEP settings. Encryption is designed to make the data
transmission more secure. You may select 64 or 128-bit WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
key to encrypt data (Default setting is Disable). WEP encrypts each frame transmitted
from the radio using one of the Keys from a panel. When you use WEP to communicate
with the other wireless clients, all the wireless devices in this network must have the
same encryption key or pass phrase. The following information is included in this tab, as
the image depicts below.
Authentication Type: Select Open or Shared from the drop-down list.
Encryption: Select WEP from the drop-down list.
WEP Key: Type a character string into the field. For 64-bit enter 5 alphanumeric or

type, click the Show Password box to check it.
WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK Authentication & TKIP, AES Encryption
WPA – PSK (Pre-shared Key) is used in a Pre Shared Key mode that does not require an
authentication server. Access to the Internet and the rest of the wireless network
services is allowed only if the pre-shared key of the computer matches that of the Access
Point. This approach offers the simplicity of the WEP key, but uses stronger TKIP
encryption. EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an extension to the PPP protocol
that enables a variety of authentication protocols to be used. It passes through the
exchange of authentication messages, allowing the authentication software stored in a
server to interact with its counterpart in the client.
Authentication Type: Select WPA or WPA2 from the drop-down list.
Encryption: Select TKIP or AES from the drop-down list.
WPA Preshared key: Enter a pass phrase which is between 8 and 32 characters long.

Appendix 2 – How to Set WPS
WPS setting supports two modes :PBC and PIN. The detailed setting steps are as follows:
1.Wireless Connection in PBC Mode
1.1 Enable the router’s WPS-PBC feature.
If your router provides WPS button, just press and hold it for about 1 second, then the WPS LED
will be flashing for about 2 minutes, which indicates the router’s WPS feature has been enabled.
Otherwise, you can also log on to the router’s web-based utility to enable the PBC mode in WPS
settings screen(For detailed settings,please refer to your router’s user guide).
1.2 Perform PBC connection on the UI of the wireless adapter
1) On the main interface ofEnGenius’s UI, click “Profile”—“Add WPS Profile”.
2) On the Profile screen, select “Push-Button Configuration”(PBC) and then click the “Next”
button, select “Start PBC” two minutes after the router enables the WPS function. The
connection is established when the negotiating process finishes.

NOTE:
1.Under the WPS connection mode, when multiple routers simultaneously enable the WPS
function, it may cause connection failure.
2.If the router connect to the adapter using the WPS, only one client can be connected at one
time, and so if the router need to connect to multiple clients through WPS, you should repeat
the WPS operation.
