These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio or television reception. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio and television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures.• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for helpThis device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.WARNINGThe connection of a non-shielded equipment interface cable to this equipment will invalidate the FCC Certification or Declaration of this device and may cause interference levels which exceed the limits established by the FCC for this equipment. It is the responsibility of the user to obtain and use a shielded equipment interface cable with this device. If this equipment has more than one interface connector, do not leave cables connected to unused interfaces. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:The wireless LAN 802.11a/b/g adapter Model: WN6501CEP complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This device should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator and your body.The holder of the grant of equipment authorization (Grantee) of the module is responsible for the compliance of the module in its final configuration, provided that the OEM, integrator, and/or end user has complied with all of the instructions provided by the Grantee which indicate installation and/or operating conditions necessary for compliance.
COMPLIANCESvThe modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and, if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: BKMWN6501C” or “Contains FCC ID: BKMWN6501C.” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization, or, must provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. DGT WARNING經型式認證合格之低功率射頻電機，非經許可，公司、商號或使用者均不得擅自變更頻率、加大功率或變更原設計之特性及功能。低功率射頻電機之使用不得影響飛航安全及干擾合法通信；經發現有干擾現象時，應立即停用，並改善至無干擾時方得繼續使用。前項合法通信，指依電信法規定作業之無線電通信。低功率射頻電機須忍受合法通信或工業、科學及醫療用電波輻射性電機設備之干擾。Article 14Without permission, any company, firm or user shall not alter the frequency, increase the power, or change the characteristics and functions of the original design of the certified lower power frequency electric machinery.Article 15The application of lower power frequency electric machineries shall not affect the navigation safety nor interfere a legal communication, if an interference is found, the service will be suspended until improvement is made and the interference no longer exists.The foregoing legal communication refers to the wireless telecommunication operated according to the telecommunications laws and regulations.

Wireless LAN 802.11a/b/g USB adapter1-12Link StatusThe Link Status screen displays information on the current wireless access point to which you are connected. Status - Displays the BSSID (Basic Service Set ID) of the access point to which the Wireless LAN USB adapter is associated. The BSSID is the 6-byte hexadecimal ID number (the MAC address) of the associated access point or base station. This information is only displayed, and not configurable. Clients that have been associated with the same access point, will display the same BSSID.Extra Info - Shows the transmit power as a percentage.Channel - The channel used to connect with the access point.Link Speed - The data transmission speed.Throughput - The amount of data (kilobits) transferred per second.Link Quality - Shows the link quality of the wireless connection as a percentage.
CONFIGURATION1-13Signal Strength - Shows the strength of the connection between the RALINK Wireless Network Card and the access point.Noise Level - Displays the level of noise as a percentage. If the Noise Level is too high, your wireless connection will be disrupted.
Wireless LAN 802.11a/b/g USB adapter1-14Site SurveySite Survey scans and displays all wireless devices within range. Simply double-click on the network you wish to join. SSID - Service Set ID. The SSID is a code attached to all packets on a wireless network to identify each packet as part of that network. It is essentially the name of your network and can be up to a maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters in length. The green icon beside SSID WG302 shows you are connected to this network.BSSID - Basic Service Set ID. The BSSID is the 6-byte hexadecimal ID number (the MAC address) of the associated access point or base station in an infrastructure network. In an ad hoc network, the BSSID is a random number generated by the first station that communicates with other clients on the network. This information is only displayed, and not configurable.Signal - Displays the signal strength from the station to the listed access points.Channel - This is the channel used for the wireless connection.
CONFIGURATION1-15Authentication - Displays the authentication type in use. We recommend enabling WPA for security purposes.Network Type - This shows the operating mode of all listed access points.Note: The text box on the bottom left of your screen names the access point to which you are currently connected.Rescan - Click Rescan to check for any new wireless networks within range.
Wireless LAN 802.11a/b/g USB adapter1-16StatisticsThe Statistics screen displays network connection information. Use this feature to see how many packets have been successfully transmitted and received on your network. The Reset Counter button allows you to set all counters back to zero.
CONFIGURATION1-17AdvancedThe Advanced screen displays all the advanced network connection information. Wireless mode - The RALINK Wireless Network Card supports 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g mode. (Default: 802.11 A/B/G mix)Select Your Country Region Code - Choose the Country Region Code for 802.11b/g and 802.11a.B/G Protection - Co-existing 802.11b and 802.11g networks can lead to network conflicts. The final 802.11g standard includes a protection mechanism to ensure mixed 802.11b and 802.11g operation. To get optimum performance it can be helpful to enable this feature which allows b/g to co-exist at the expense of performance. (Default: Auto)CCX 2.0 - The Cisco Compatible Extensions (CCX) specification is for makers of 802.11 wireless LAN chips for ensuring compliance with Cisco’s proprietary wireless LAN protocols. (Default: Disabled)
Wireless LAN 802.11a/b/g USB adapter1-18Tx Rate - Indicates the data transmission rate. Select an appropriate transmission speed. Lower speeds will give a better range. (Default: Auto)Tx BURST - Burst transmission combines a very high data signaling rate with very short transmission times. (Default: Disabled)Enable TCP Window Size - A TCP window limits the amount of outstanding (unacknowledged by the recipient) data a sender can send on a particular connection before it gets an acknowledgment back from the receiver that it has received some of the data. (Default: Disabled)Fast Roaming - Allows you to move from the range of one access point to the range of another with a handoff of approximately 50 milliseconds or less. (Default: Disabled)Turn off RF - Click to turn off the radio frequency. This disables the wireless feature. (Default: On)Apply - Be sure to click the Apply button to enable your settings.
