EAP9550
is a powerful and multi-functioned 11n Access Point and it can act three modes
AP/WDS/Universal Repeater. Smoke detector appearance will minimize visibility. So this model can
work properly at Hotel or public area.
EAP9550 is a Wireless Network device that delivers up to 6x faster speeds and 7x extended coverage
than 802.11g devices. Product’s RF performance is finely tuned so it will bring best wireless signal
for each client. EAP9550 supports home network with superior throughput, performance and
unparalleled wireless range. To protect data during wireless transmissions, EAP9550 encrypts all
wireless transmissions through WEP data encryption and supports WPA/WPA2. Its MAC address filter
allows users to select stations with access to connect network. EAP9550 thus is the best product to
ensure network quality for hotspots.

3. Modes
AP/WDS/Repeater
3.1. Access Point
In AP (Access Point) mode, your device acts as a communication hub for users with
a wireless device to connect to a wired LAN/WAN.
3.2. WDS Bridge
You can only connect to the device via Wireless Client
WDS (Wireless Distribution System) allows AP to communicate with one another
wirelessly. This capability is critical in providing a seamless experience for roaming
clients and for managing multiple wireless networks.
3.3. Universal Repeater
Repeater is used to regenerate or replicate signals that are weakened or distorted by
transmission over long distances and through areas with high levels of
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Universal Repeater (AP) mode on one radio
channel is usually configured along with Universal Repeater (STA) mode on another
radio channel.
4. Web Configuration

4.2.1.3. Advanced
¾ Fragment Threshold: Packets over the specified size will be fragmented in order to
improve performance on noisy networks. Specify a value between 256 and 2346. The
default value is 2346.
¾ RTS Threshold: Packets over the specified size will use the RTS/CTS mechanism to
maintain performance in noisy networks and preventing hidden nodes from degrading the
performance. Specify a value between 0 and 2347. The default value is 2347.
¾ Beacon Interval: Beacons are packets sent by a wireless Access Point to synchronize
wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Interval value between 24 and 1024. The default value
is set to 100 milliseconds.
¾ DTIM Period: A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to
broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless Access Point has buffered
broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a
DTIM Period value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to receive the
broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid settings are between 1
and 10.
¾ Data rate: You may select a data rate from the drop-down list, however, it is recommended
to select auto. This is also known as auto-fallback.
¾ N Data Rate: You may select N data rate from the drop-down list, however, it is
recommended to select auto.
¾ Channel Bandwidth: Select channel bandwidth.
¾ Preamble Type: Select a short or long preamble. For optimum performance it is
recommended to also configure the client device as the same preamble type.
¾ CTS Protection: CTS (Clear to Send) can be always enabled, auto, or disabled. By enabled
CTS, the Access Point and clients will wait for a ‘clear’ signal before transmitting. It is
recommended to select auto.
4.2.1.4. Security
¾ Encryption: Disabled
¾ Encryption: WEP
¾ ESSID Selection: As this device supports multiple SSIDs, it is possible to configure a
different security mode for each SSID (profile). Select an SSID from the drop-down list.
¾ Broadcast SSID: Select Enable or Disable from the drop-down list. This is the SSID
broadcast feature. When this option is set to Enable, your wireless network name is broadcast to
anyone within the range of your signal. If you're not using encryption then they could connect
to your network. When this is disabled, you must enter the Wireless Network Name (SSID)
on the client manually to connect to the network.
¾ WMM: Choose to Enable or Disable WMM. This is the Quality of Service (QoS) feature for
prioritizing voice and video applications. This option can be further configured in WMM
under the Wireless drop-down menu.
¾ Encryption: Select WEP from the drop-down list.
¾ Authentication Type: Select Open System, Shared Key, or auto. Authentication method
from the drop-down list. An open system allows any client to authenticate as long as it
conforms to any MAC address filter policies that may have been set. All authentication
packets are transmitted without encryption. Shared Key sends an unencrypted challenge
text string to any device attempting to communicate with the AP. The device requesting
authentication encrypts the challenge text and sends it back to the access point. If the
challenge text is encrypted correctly, the access point allows the requesting device to
authenticate. It is recommended to select Auto if you are not sure which authentication
type is used.
¾ Key Length: Select a 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key length from the drop-down list.
¾ Key Type: Select a key type from the drop-down list. 128-bit encryption requires a longer
key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are defined by entering in a string in HEX (hexadecimal using characters 0-9, A-F) or ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange
- alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format is provided so you can enter a string that
is easier to remember.
¾ Default Key: You may choose one of your 4 different WEP keys from below.
¾ Encryption Key 1-4: You may enter four different WEP keys.
¾ Enable 802.1x Authentication: Place a check in this box if you would like to use RADIUS
authentication. This option works with a RADIUS Server to authenticate wireless clients.
Wireless clients should have established the necessary credentials before attempting to
authenticate to the Server through this Gateway. Furthermore, it may be necessary to
configure the RADIUS Server to allow this Gateway to authenticate users. You will then be
required to specify the RADIUS Server’s IP address, port, and password.
¾
Encryption: WPA pre-shared key
¾ ESSID Selection: As this device supports multiple SSIDs, it is possible to configure a
different security mode for each SSID (profile). Select an SSID from the drop-down list.
¾ Broadcast SSID: Select Enable or Disable from the drop-down list. This is the SSID
broadcast feature. When this option is set to Enable, your wireless network name is broadcast to
anyone within the range of your signal. If you're not using encryption then they could connect
to your network. When this is disabled, you must enter the Wireless Network Name (SSID)
on the client manually to connect to the network.
¾ WMM: Choose to Enable or Disable WMM. This is the Quality of Service (QoS) feature for
prioritizing voice and video applications. This option can be further configured in WMM
under the Wireless drop-down menu.
¾ Encryption: Select WPA pre-shared key from the drop-down list.
¾ WPA Type: Select TKIP, AES, or WPA2 Mixed. The encryption algorithm used to secure
the data communication. TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) provides per-packet key
generation and is based on WEP. AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a very secure
block based encryption. Note that, if the bridge uses the AES option, the bridge can
associate with the access point only if the access point is also set to use only AES.
¾ Pre-shared Key Type: The Key Type can be passphrase or Hex format.
¾ Pre-Shared Key: The key is entered as a pass-phrase of up to 63 alphanumeric characters
in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) format at both ends of the
wireless connection. It cannot be shorter than eight characters, although for proper
security it needs to be of ample length and should not be a commonly known phrase. This
phrase is used to generate session keys that are unique for each wireless client.
¾
Encryption: WPA RADIUS
¾ ESSID Selection: As this device supports multiple SSIDs, it is possible to configure a
different security mode for each SSID (profile). Select an SSID from the drop-down list.
¾ Broadcast SSID: Select Enable or Disable from the drop-down list. This is the SSID
broadcast feature. When this option is set to Enable, your wireless network name is broadcast to
anyone within the range of your signal. If you're not using encryption then they could connect
to your network. When this is disabled, you must enter the Wireless Network Name (SSID)
