Page 3 PePWave Surf Series User Manual Product Description PePWave Surf is a feature-rich Wi-Fi CPE with WPA, WPA2 and 802.1x supplicant support. It is designed to act as a Wireless router and connects LAN users with a Wireless Broadband Internet Service (such as Citywide Wi-Fi). It associates to a service provider and authenticates using 802.1x (if needed) on start up. Upon successful association and authentication, it will acquire an IP address from the service provider using DHCP. A DHCP server is built-in on its LAN port. Network Address Translation is performed for all outbound connections. Thus it supports multiple terminals to access the Internet simultaneously. 3.1 Features 10/100 Ethernet interface with auto-crossover detection Reset button for restoring settings to factory defaults Signal strength LED for showing the current signal strength WPA/WPA2-Personal and WPA/WPA2-Enterprise support Network Address Translation (NAT) routing Built-in DHCP server Inbound port range forwarding Integrated Home Wi-Fi Access Point (PePWave Surf AP only) Page 4 PePWave Surf Series User Manual 3.2 Hardware Setup 1.

Page 9 PePWave Surf Series User Manual Click the “Advanced Config” button to enter the parameters of the access point to associate to. You should see this screen: In the field “SSID” under Wireless Settings, input the access point’s SSID (sometimes it is called the “network name”). According to the setting of the Access Point you are associating to, you may choose a different “Authentication setting”. If “Static WEP key” or “WPA/WPA2-Personal” is selected for Authentication, input the Encryption Key field as well. (There are also options of “802.1x with dynamic WEP key” and “WPA/WPA2-Enterprise”. You do not need to use these settings unless instructed to do so by your ISP.) Click the “Save” button at the bottom to complete. You can now click the “Connect” link on the top bar and then click the “Connect” button to associate with the access point. Page 10 PePWave Surf Series User Manual At this point, you are associated with the access point. You may now close the web browser and open a new one to start web browsing.

DHCP Server: To configure and enable the built-in DHCP server or not. If enabled, the IP address range can be configured. Wireless Settings: SSID: To configure the SSID / ESSID / Network Name of the wireless network to associate to. Radio Mode: It allows the user to choose between radio modulations support. E.g. 802.11b/g, 802.11g only, 802.11b, etc. The available settings depend on the Wi-Fi module installed on the device. Bit Rate: To fix the 802.11 transmit bit rate. Available options depend on the Radio Mode chosen. If “auto” is chosen, the device will choose the best bit rate dynamically and automatically. Authentication: Available options are Open, Static WEP Key, 802.1x with dynamic WEP key, WPA/WPA2-Enterprise and WPA/WPA2-Personal. The selection should be according to the setting of the access point you are associating to. Data transferred are encrypted under all modes except in Open mode. When Static WEP Key or WPA/WPA2-Personal is chosen, you should enter an encryption key in the Encryption Key field. (You do not need to use 802.1x and WPA/WPA2-Enterprise unless instructed to do so by your ISP.) Preferred AP: The MAC address of a preferred access point can be entered here. When the preferred access point is found and its signal strength is higher than the “Min Signal Strength”, it will connect to this preferred access point, no matter the other access points are found even they have higher signal strength or the same SSID. Page 12 PePWave Surf Series User Manual IP Settings: The IP address can be obtained automatically or configured manually. If you choose to manually configure the IP address for your unit, enter the fields “IP Address”, “Subnet Mask”, “Default Gateway”, “Preferred DNS Server” and “Alternate DNS Server”. MTU Size: You may also set the MTU Size to increase the data packet size your Surf can handle at one time.

Page 14 PePWave Surf Series User Manual 4.3.2 Access Point Disabled Access Point Disabled, as shown with the red marker box Page 15 PePWave Surf Series User Manual 4.3.3 Manual Access Point configuration Manual Access Point Configuration, as shown with the red marker box Page 16 PePWave Surf Series User Manual In Manual Configuration mode, the SSID is manually entered. Authentication can be one of three configurable values: Open For Open Authentication Mode, no Encryption Key is necessary. Static WEP Key For Static WEP Key Authentication Mode, a 64- or 128-bit Encryption Key is required, and can be entered in either an ASCII or HEX representation. Static WEP Key Authentication Configuration WPA/WPA2-Personal For WPA/WPA2-Personal Authentication Mode, an Encryption Key, of at least 8 characters, is required. WPA/WPA2-Personal Authentication Configuration Broadcast SSID can be one of two configurable values: Enable The configured SSID will be broadcast such that it can be detected by an SSID scan. Disable The configured SSID will not be broadcast such that it cannot be detected by an SSID scan. In order to connect with the access point, the SSID needs to be known by the client. Page 17 PePWave Surf Series User Manual A.1.1 Automatic Access Point Configuration Auto. Access Point Configuration, as shown with the red marker box With the Access Point Configuration set to Configure Automatically, the SSID, Authentication, and Encryption Key values of the Integrated Home Wi-Fi Access Point will be configured to be the same as in the Wireless Settings section. This configuration mode is effectively equivalent to directly connecting 802.1b/g devices on the customers’ premises with Citywide Wi-Fi. Page 18 PePWave Surf Series User Manual Important Note: In the Wireless Settings section, if Authentication is set to either 802.1x with dynamic WEP key or WPA/WPA2-Enterprise, then the Configure Automatically option of the Access Point Configuration becomes unavailable, because the Integrated Home Wi-Fi Access Point functionality currently does not support authentication via the 802.1x with dynamic WEP key and WPA/WPA2-Enterprise methods. Automatic Access Point Configuration is unavailable with 802.1 with Dynamic WEP Key Authentication Page 19 PePWave Surf Series User Manual Automatic Access Point Configuration is unavailable with WPA/WPA2-Enterprise Authentication Page 20 PePWave Surf Series User Manual 4.4 Test the Setup To test to setup, you can now go to the PePWave Surf’s Main page, enter the user name and password.
