Installation
Hardware Requirements
To use the Wireless Access Point on your network, each computer may need
the following requirements:
„ An installed 802.11b/g wireless adapter.
„ An Ethernet LAN switch or hub.
„ A wired RJ-45 Ethernet cable
System Requirements
„
„
A Computer with Windows, Macintosh, or Linux-based operating system.
To run AP Manager, you need a computer with Windows operating
system.
Internet Configuration Requirements
In order to connect your Access Point to the AP Manager, you will need the
following configuration parameters to configure the TCP/IP setting of your
computer:
„
„
„
Static IP Address: 192.168.1. x (e.g, 2 ~ 253)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.254
Hardware Installation
Follow these steps to install the Wireless Access Point.
1. Choose a proper place for Access Point. In general, the best location is at
the center of your wireless coverage area, within line of sight to all wireless
devices. Keeping clear of metal obstructions and away from direct sunlight.
2. Place the Access Point in the desired location. Normally, the higher you
place the antenna, the better the performance will be. The antenna
position enhances the receiving sensitivity.
3. Attach one end of an RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the Access Point and attach
the other end to a network hub, switch, router, or patch panel (possibly on
a wall).
4. Attach one end of the AC power adapter to the Access Point and the other
end to a power outlet. (Note: Only use the power adapter supplied by
Gigabyte in the product package. Using a different adapter may result in
product damage.)
For the average home, signal range should not be an issue. If you experience
low or no signal strength in areas of your home that you wish to access,
consider positioning the Access Point in a location directly between the
computers with wireless adapters. Additional Access Points can be connected
to provide better coverage in rooms where the signal does not appear as
strong as desired.
Connect to Access Point
Wired Ethernet Cable
You can connect a LAN cable from your computer Network card to the Access
Point without using a Network switch or hub.
Wireless Connection
If you are using the wireless connection, you can connect to the Access Point
using the Gigabyte Access Point Manager without a wired Ethernet cable.
Illustration
There are two installation mode for your reference as follow:
Method 1: Static IP address
If you are Not using a DHCP server in your network, you can configure the AP
by connecting to the computer directly.
PC(AP Manager) 192.168.1.x
AP - DHCP (Disable)
192.168.1.1(default)
1.
You will need to assign a Static IP Address to the computer that you are
using to configure the Access Point on the same subnet.
For instance, the default IP address of the Access Point is 192.168.1.1
and the subnet mask 255.255.255.0. You can enter IP address
192.168.1.20 (assuming that it is not already assigned to another network
device), subnet mask 255.255.255.0 to your computer.
Note:
If you need the instructions on how to do this, please refer to
Appendix C, “Configuration of the PCs”
2.
Connect to the Access Point one by one and assign a static IP to each
Access Point. For example, 192.168.1.2 or 192.168.1.y, etc. (If the IP
address of your network is 10.1.5.x then your Access Point can be
assigned to 10.1.5.y.)
PC(AP Manager) 192.168.1.x
DHCP (Disable)
192.168.1.1
3.
4.
192.168.1.2
192.168.1.y
Make sure that every Access Point has a unique IP.
After all Access Points have been configured successfully, then you can
use AP Manager to control/monitor all Access Points network.
Method 2: Numerous Access Points setting
Using DHCP server to setup the IP Address then remove DHCP server
If require to setup as many Access Points at the same time. You can setup a
DHCP Server and let it assign IP to all the Access Points so it has its own
unique IP address. After the setup is finished, and then remove or disabled
DHCP Server at last. Now, you can use the AP Manager to find all Access
Points in your network, and then setup the N-Access Points as static IP
address one by one. Notice: After assign static IP address to every Access
Points, be sure to set the PC (AP Manager) to the same subnet.

Obtain IP Address Automatically - DHCP Server Enabled
If you are using a DHCP server in your network, you can connect a DHCP
server with the Access Point and an AP Manager through a switch/hub. The IP
address of the Access Point should be configured to “obtain an IP address
automatically”(which is default setting). The DHCP server will assign the IP
address to the Access Point. The PC (AP Manager) should use the IP on the
same subnet as the Access Point. Or, you can configure the PC (AP
Manager) to “obtain an IP address automatically” and assign IP by the same
DHCP server.

is set to “Open System”.
Open System
in which the sender and the recipient do NOT share a
secret key. Each party generates its own key-pair and
asks the receiver to accept the randomly generated key.
Once accepted, this key is used for a short time only.
Then a new key is generated and agreed upon.
Shared Key
is both the sender and the recipient share a secret key.
If the “Shared Key” or “Both” option is selected, it will not be able to perform the
option “Disable” of the WEP Type.
If the 802.1x -Dynamic WEP option is selected, the Radius/WPA page will
appear as shown below.
RADIUS server IP
RADIUS Port
RADIUS sercet
RADIUS Re-Key
Please assign a IP address to the primary RADIUS
server(authentication server).
The setting range is 1~65536 and the default value

This filed can key in up to 256 character.
Under this option two setting are possible: "Enable”
or “Disable”. The default value is “Enable”.
Verify the desired setting and then click the “Apply” button to set the value into
access point.
WPA
if you have been using Wi-Fi for a while, you are probably
familiar with the 802.1X authentication protocol. This protocol
allows users to authenticate into a wireless network by means
of a RADIUS Server. In standard Wi-Fi, 802.1X authentication
is optional. However, 802.1X authentication is a requirement
for WPA. If your environment does not have a RADIUS server
in place, you can still use WPA in spite of the 802.1X
requirement. As an alternative to RADIUS, WPA supports the
use of a preshared key.
One of the biggest drawbacks to traditional WEP security is
that changing the encryption key is optional. Even if you do
switch encryption keys from time to time, there is no option for
globally rekeying all access points and all wireless NICs.
Instead, rekeying is a tedious manual process and is
completely impractical for large organizations. After all, the
instant you rekey an access point, none of the clients will be
able to access it until they are also rekeyed.
But with WPA, the rekeying of global encryption keys is
required. In the case of unicast traffic, the encryption key is
changed after every frame using Temporary Key Integrity
Protocol (TKIP). This protocol allows key changes to occur on
a frame by frame basis and to be automatically synchronized
between the access point and the wireless client. Global
rekeying works by advertising the new keys to wireless
clients.
The TKIP is really the heart and soul of WPA security. TKIP
replaces WEP encryption. And although WEP is optional in
standard Wi-Fi, TKIP is required in WPA. The TKIP encryption
algorithm is stronger than the one used by WEP but works by
using the same hardware-based calculation mechanisms WEP
uses.
The TKIP protocol actually has several functions. First, it
determines which encryption keys will be used and then
verifies the client security configuration. Second, it is
responsible for changing the unicast encryption key for each
frame. Finally, TKIP sets a unique starting key for each
authenticated client that is using a preshared key.
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), A standard, sponsored
by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, for
protecting data through encryption. AES supports key sizes of
128 bits, 192 bits and 256 bits and will serve as a replacement
for the Data Encryption Standard (DES), which has a key size
of 56 bits. In addition to the increased security that comes with
larger key sizes, AES can encrypt data much faster than
Triple-DES, a DES enhancement that which essentially
encrypts a message or document three times.
WPA PSK WPA use of a preshared key.
When WPA option is selected, the Radius/WPA page will appear as shown
below.

There are three settings you can select : “TKIP”,
“AES” and “Auto”.

64 (40) Bits, 128 (104) Bits or 152 (128) Bits
There are three levels of encryption 64 bits, 128 bits and 152 bits. The 64
bits encryption is referenced as a lower level encryption. The 152 bits
encryption is referenced as a higher level encryption.
The 64 bits WEP encryption use 40 bits as a secret key, which can
controlled by user, and 24 bits as the initialize vector, which user can not
control. These two portions plus together is 64 bits encryption. Some other
vendor product might refer as 40 bits encryption. It is the same thing.
The 128 bits WEP encryption use 104 bits as a secret key, which can
controlled by user, and 24 bits as the initialize vector, which user can not
control. These two portions plus together is 128 bits encryption. Some
other vendor product might refer as 104 bits encryption. It is the same
thing.
The 152 bits WEP encryption use 128 bits as a secret key, which can
controlled by user, and 24 bits as the initialize vector, which user can not
control. The 152 bits WEP encryption spawns a KEY ID containing 32
HEX digits.
Verify the desired setting and then click the “Apply” button to set the value into
