OUTDOOR INSTALLATION WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
LIVES MAY BE AT RISK! Carefully observe these instructions and any special instructions that are included with the
equipment you are installing.
CONTACTING POWER LINES CAN BE LETHAL. Make sure no power
lines are anywhere where possible contact can be made. Antennas, masts,
towers, guy wires or cables may lean or fall and contact these limes.
People may be injured or killed if they are touching or holding any part of
equipment when it contacts electric lines. Make sure there is NO possibility
that equipment or personnel can come in contact directly or indirectly with
power lines.
Assume all overhead lines are power lines.
The horizontal distance from a tower, mast or antenna to the nearest power line should be at least twice the total length of
the mast/antenna combination. This will ensure that the mast will not contact power if it falls either during installation or later.
TO AVOID FALLING, USE SAFE PROCEDURES WHEN WORKING AT HEIGHTS ABOVE GROUND.
 Select equipment locations that will allow safe, simple equipment installation.
 Don’t work alone. A friend or co-worker can save your life if an accident happens.
 Use approved non-conducting lasers and other safety equipment. Make sure all equipment is in good repair.
 If a tower or mast begins falling, don’t attempt to catch it. Stand back and let it fall.
 If anything such as a wire or mast does come in contact with a power line, DON’T TOUCH IT OR ATTEMPT TO
MOVE IT. Instead, save your life by calling the power company.
 Don’t attempt to erect antennas or towers on windy days.
MAKE SURE ALL TOWERS AND MASTS ARE SECURELY GROUNDED, AND ELECTRICAL CABLES CONNECTED TO
ANTENNAS HAVE LIGHTNING ARRESTORS. This will help prevent fire damage or human injury in case of lightning, static
build-up, or short circuit within equipment connected to the antenna.
 The base of the antenna mast or tower must be connected directly to the building protective ground or to one or more
approved grounding rods, using 1 OAWG ground wire and corrosion-resistant connectors.
 Refer to the National Electrical Code for grounding details.
IF A PERSON COMES IN CONTACT WITH ELECTRICAL POWER, AND CANNOT MOVE:

DON’T TOUCH THAT PERSON, OR YOU MAY BE ELECTROCUTED.

Use a non-conductive dry board, stick or rope to push or drag them so they no longer are in contact with electrical
power.
Once they are no longer contacting electrical power, administer CPR if you are certified, and make sure that emergency

Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, video conferencing, Internet calling and so
on. These applications cannot work with a pure NAT Router. Port Triggering is used for some of these
applications that can work with an NAT Router.
Once configured, operation is as follows:
1.
A local host makes an outgoing connection to an external host using a destination port number defined in
the Trigger Port field.
2.
The Router records this connection, opens the incoming port or ports associated with this entry in the Port
Triggering table, and associates them with the local host.
3.
When necessary the external host will be able to connect to the local host using one of the ports defined in
the Incoming Ports field.

Appendix A: FAQ
A.1 What and how to find my PC’s IP and MAC address?
IP address is the identifier for a computer or device on a TCP/IP network. Networks using the TCP/IP protocol
route messages based on the IP address of the destination. The format of an IP address is a 32-bit numeric
address written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example,
191.168.1.254 could be an IP address
The MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. (On an Ethernet LAN,
it's the same as your Ethernet address.) When you're connected to the Internet from your computer (or host as
the Internet protocol thinks of it), a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical
(MAC) address on the LAN.
To find your PC’s IP and MAC address,
(1) Open the Command program in the Microsoft Windows.
(2) Type in “ipconfig /all”, then press the Enter button.
(3) Your PC’s IP address is the one entitled IP Address and your PC’s MAC address is the one entitled
Physical Address.
A.2 What is Wireless LAN?
A wireless LAN (WLAN) is a network that allows access to Internet without the need for any wired connections to
the user’s machine.
A.3 What are ISM bands?
ISM stands for Industrial, Scientific and Medical; radio frequency bands that the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) authorized for wireless LANs. The ISM bands are located at 915 +/-13 MHz, 2450 +/-50 MHz
and 5800 +/-75 MHz.
A.4 How does wireless networking work?
The 802.11 standard define two modes: infrastructure mode and ad hoc mode. In infrastructure mode, the
wireless network consists of at least one access point connected to the wired network infrastructure and a set of
wireless end stations. This configuration is called a Basic Service Set (BSS). An Extended Service Set (ESS) is
a set of two or more BSSs forming a single sub-network. Since most corporate WLANs require access to the
wired LAN for services (file servers, printers, Internet links) they will operate in infrastructure mode.
-147-
User Manual of WNAP-7206
Example 1: wireless Infrastructure Mode
Ad hoc mode (also called peer-to-peer mode or an Independent Basic Service Set, or IBSS) is simply a set of
802.11 wireless stations that communicate directly with one another without using an access point or any
connection to a wired network. This mode is useful for quickly and easily setting up a wireless network anywhere
that a wireless infrastructure does not exist or is not required for services, such as a hotel room, convention
center, or airport, or where access to the wired network is barred (such as for consultants at a client site).
Example 2: wireless Ad Hoc Mode
A.5 What is BSSID?
A six-byte address is that distinguish a particular a particular access point from others. Also know as just SSID.
Serve as a network ID or name.
A.6 What is ESSID?
The Extended Service Set ID (ESSID) is the name of the network you want to access. It is used to identify
different wireless networks.
A.7 What are potential factors that may causes interference?
Factors of interference:



Obstacles: walls, ceilings, furniture… etc.
Building Materials: metal door, aluminum studs.
Electrical devices: microwaves, monitors and electrical motors.
-148-
User Manual of WNAP-7206
Solutions to overcome the interferences:




Minimizing the number of walls and ceilings.
Position the WLAN antenna for best reception.
Keep WLAN devices away from other electrical devices, eg: microwaves, monitors, electric
motors…etc.
Add additional WLAN Access Points if necessary.
A.8 What are the Open System and Shared Key authentications?
IEEE 802.11 supports two subtypes of network authentication services: open system and shared key. Under
open system authentication, any wireless station can request authentication. The station that needs to
authenticate with another wireless station sends an authentication management frame that contains the identity
of the sending station. The receiving station then returns a frame that indicates whether it recognizes the
sending station. Under shared key authentication, each wireless station is assumed to have received a secret
shared key over a secure channel that is independent from the 802.11 wireless network communications
channel.
A.9 What is WEP?
An option of IEEE 802.11 function is that offers frame transmission privacy similar to a wired network. The Wired
Equivalent Privacy generates secret shared encryption keys that both source and destination stations can use to
alert frame bits to avoid disclosure to eavesdroppers.
WEP relies on a secret key that is shared between a mobile station (e.g. a laptop with a wireless Ethernet card)
and an access point (i.e. a base station). The secret key is used to encrypt packets before they are transmitted,
and an integrity check is used to ensure that packets are not modified in transit.
A.10 What is Fragment Threshold?
The proposed protocol uses the frame fragmentation mechanism defined in IEEE 802.11 to achieve parallel
transmissions. A large data frame is fragmented into several fragments each of size equal to fragment threshold.
By tuning the fragment threshold value, we can get varying fragment sizes. The determination of an efficient
fragment threshold is an important issue in this scheme. If the fragment threshold is small, the overlap part of the
master and parallel transmissions is large. This means the spatial reuse ratio of parallel transmissions is high. In
contrast, with a large fragment threshold, the overlap is small and the spatial reuse ratio is low. However high
fragment threshold leads to low fragment overhead. Hence there is a trade-off between spatial re-use and
fragment overhead.
Fragment threshold is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets larger than the size
programmed in this field will be fragmented.
If you find that your corrupted packets or asymmetric packet reception (all send packets, for example). You may
-149-
User Manual of WNAP-7206
want to try lowering your fragmentation threshold. This will cause packets to be broken into smaller fragments.
These small fragments, if corrupted, can be resent faster than a larger fragment. Fragmentation increases
overhead, so you'll want to keep this value as close to the maximum value as possible.
A.11 What is RTS (Request to Send) Threshold?
The RTS threshold is the packet size at which packet transmission is governed by the RTS/CTS transaction. The
IEEE 802.11-1997 standard allows for short packets to be transmitted without RTS/ CTS transactions. Each
station can have a different RTS threshold. RTS/CTS is used when the data packet size exceeds the defined
RTS threshold. With the CSMA/CA transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out an RTS packet
to the receiving station, and waits for the receiving station to send back a CTS (Clear to Send) packet before
sending the actual packet data.
This setting is useful for networks with many clients. With many clients, and a high network load, there will be
many more collisions. By lowering the RTS threshold, there may be fewer collisions, and performance should
improve. Basically, with a faster RTS threshold, the system can recover from problems faster. RTS packets
consume valuable bandwidth, however, so setting this value too low will limit performance.
A.12 What is Beacon Interval?
In addition to data frames that carry information from higher layers, 802.11 include management and control
frames that support data transfer. The beacon frame, which is a type of management frame, provides the
"heartbeat" of a wireless LAN, enabling stations to establish and maintain communications in an orderly fashion.
Beacon Interval represents the amount of time between beacon transmissions. Before a station enters power
save mode, the station needs the beacon interval to know when to wake up to receive the beacon (and learn
whether there are buffered frames at the access point).
A.13 What is Preamble Type?
There are two preamble types defined in IEEE 802.11 specification. A long preamble basically gives the decoder
more time to process the preamble. All 802.11 devices support a long preamble. The short preamble is designed
to improve efficiency (for example, for VoIP systems). The difference between the two is in the Synchronization
field. The long preamble is 128 bits, and the short is 56 bits.
A.14 What is SSID Broadcast?
Broadcast of SSID is done in access points by the beacon. This announces your access point (including various
bits of information about it) to the wireless world around it. By disabling that feature, the SSID configured in the
client must match the SSID of the access point.
Some wireless devices don't work properly if SSID isn't broadcast (for example the D-link DWL-120 USB
802.11b adapter). Generally if your client hardware supports operation with SSID disabled, it's not a bad idea to
-150-
User Manual of WNAP-7206
run that way to enhance network security. However it's no replacement for WEP, MAC filtering or other
protections.
A.15 What is Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)?
Wi-Fi’s original security mechanism, Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), has been viewed as insufficient for
securing confidential business communications. A longer-term solution, the IEEE 802.11i standard, is under
development. However, since the IEEE 802.11i standard is not expected to be published until the end of 2003,
several members of the WI-Fi Alliance teamed up with members of the IEEE 802.11i task group to develop a
significant near-term enhancement to Wi-Fi security. Together, this team developed Wi-Fi Protected Access.
To upgrade a WLAN network to support WPA, Access Points will require a WPA software upgrade. Clients will
require a software upgrade for the network interface card, and possibly a software update for the operating
system. For enterprise networks, an authentication server, typically one that supports RADIUS and the selected
EAP authentication protocol, will be added to the network.
A.16 What is WPA2?
It is the second generation of WPA. WPA2 is based on the final IEEE 802.11i amendment to the 802.11
standard.
A.17 What is 802.1x Authentication?
802.1x is a framework for authenticated MAC-level access control, defines Extensible Authentication Protocol
(EAP) over LANs (WAPOL). The standard encapsulates and leverages much of EAP, which was defined for
dial-up authentication with Point-to-Point Protocol in RFC 2284.
Beyond encapsulating EAP packets, the 802.1x standard also defines EAPOL messages that convey the shared
key information critical for wireless security.
A.18 What is Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)?
The Temporal Key Integrity Protocol, pronounced tee-kip, is part of the IEEE 802.11i encryption standard for
wireless LANs. TKIP is the next generation of WEP, the Wired Equivalency Protocol, which is used to secure
802.11 wireless LANs. TKIP provides per-packet key mixing, a message integrity check and a re-keying
mechanism, thus fixing the flaws of WEP.
A.19 What is Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)?
Security issues are a major concern for wireless LANs, AES is the U.S. government’s next-generation
cryptography algorithm, which will replace DES and 3DES.
-151-
User Manual of WNAP-7206
A.20 What is Inter-Access Point Protocol (IAPP)?
The IEEE 802.11f Inter-Access Point Protocol (IAPP) supports Access Point Vendor interoperability, enabling
roaming of 802.11 Stations within IP subnet.
IAPP defines messages and data to be exchanged between Access Points and between the IAPP and high layer
management entities to support roaming. The IAPP protocol uses TCP for inter-Access Point communication
and UDP for RADIUS request/response exchanges. It also uses Layer 2 frames to update the forwarding tables
of Layer 2 devices.
A.21 What is Wireless Distribution System (WDS)?
The Wireless Distribution System feature allows WLAN AP to talk directly to other APs via wireless channel, like
the wireless WDS or repeater service.
A.22 What is Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)?
UPnP is an open networking architecture that consists of services, devices, and control points. The ultimate goal
is to allow data communication among all UPnP devices regardless of media, operating system, programming
language, and wired/wireless connection.
A.23 What is Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) Size?
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) indicates the network stack of any packet is larger than this value will be
fragmented before the transmission. During the PPP negotiation, the peer of the PPP connection will indicate its
MRU and will be accepted. The actual MTU of the PPP connection will be set to the smaller one of MTU and the
peer’s MRU.
A.24 What is Clone MAC Address?
Clone MAC address is designed for your special application that request the clients to register to a server
machine with one identified MAC address. Since that all the clients will communicate outside world through the
WLAN Broadband Router, so have the cloned MAC address set on the WLAN Broadband Router will solve the
issue.
A.25 What is DDNS?
DDNS is the abbreviation of Dynamic Domain Name Server. It is designed for user owned the DNS server with
dynamic WAN IP address.
A.26 What is NTP Client?
NTP client is designed for fetching the current timestamp from internet via Network Time protocol. User can
specify time zone, NTP server IP address.
-152-
User Manual of WNAP-7206
A.27 What is VPN?
VPN is the abbreviation of Virtual Private Network. It is designed for creating point-to point private link via shared
or public network.
A.28 What is IPSEC?
IPSEC is the abbreviation of IP Security. It is used to transferring data securely under VPN.
A.29 What is WLAN Block Relay between Clients?
An Infrastructure Basic Service Set is a BSS with a component called an Access Point (AP). The access point
provides a local relay function for the BSS. All stations in the BSS communicate with the access point and no
longer communicate directly. All frames are relayed between stations by the access point. This local relay
function effectively doubles the range of the IBSS.
A.30 What is WMM?
WMM is based on a subset of the IEEE 802.11e WLAN QoS draft standard. WMM adds prioritized capabilities to
Wi-Fi networks and optimizes their performance when multiple concurring applications, each with different
latency and throughput requirements, compete for network resources. By using WMM, end-user satisfaction is
maintained in a wider variety of environments and traffic conditions. WMM makes it possible for home network
users and enterprise network managers to decide which data streams are most important and assign them a
higher traffic priority.
A.31 What is WLAN ACK TIMEOUT?
ACK frame has to receive ACK timeout frame. If remote does not receive in specified period, it will be
retransmitted.
A.32 What is Modulation Coding Scheme (MCS)?
MCS is Wireless link data rate for 802.11n. The throughput/range performance of an AP will depend on its
implementation of coding schemes. MCS includes variables such as the number of spatial streams, modulation,
and the data rate on each stream. Radios establishing and maintaining a link must automatically negotiate the
optimum MCS based on channel conditions and then continuously adjust the selection of MCS as conditions
change due to interference, motion, fading, and other events.
A.33 What is Frame Aggregation?
Every 802.11 packet, no matter how small, has a fixed amount of overhead associated with it. Frame
Aggregation combines multiple smaller packets together to form one larger packet. The larger packet can be
sent without the overhead of the individual packets. This technique helps improve the efficiency of the 802.11n
radio allowing more end user data to be sent in a given time.
-153-
User Manual of WNAP-7206
A.34 What is Guard Intervals (GI)?
A GI is a period of time between symbol transmission that allows reflections (from multipath) from the previous
data transmission to settle before transmitting a new symbol. The 802.11n specifies two guard intervals: 400ns
(short) and 800ns (long). Support of the 400ns GI is optional for transmit and receive. The purpose of a guard
interval is to introduce immunity to propagation delays, echoes, and reflections to which digital data is normally
very sensitive.
