1.5. Recommended network settings
The SAG-1010 can be configured as a wireless Ethernet adapter. In Ethernet adapter mode, the
device connects to:
1. A wireless device(s) (Ad-hoc mode), or
2. An access point (Infrastructure network type)
Determine your network settings before installing the SAG-1010. The following network settings
are recommended.
1.5.1. Access Point mode
When in access point (AP) mode the SAG-1010 Pocket Wireless AP connects WLAN-enabled
computers and/or devices to a wired or wireless LAN.

Ad-hoc network
When in Ad-hoc network, the SAG-1010
connects to another wireless device.
No access point (AP) is present in this
wireless environment.
Station 1
Station 2
Infrastructure mode
When in Infrastructure mode, the wireless network is
centered on an access point (AP) that provides a
central link for wireless clients to communicate
with each other or with a wired network. In this
setup, the SAG-1010 connects to an AP using a
single or multiple IP to establish connection to a
wired or wireless LAN.

Single IP bridge environment
In a single IP bridge environment, the SAG-1010 connects to an access point using a single IP
address.
In this setup, the MAC cloning feature may be enabled to support certain applications and
devices, such as Xbox and PlayStation® game consoles, that use the MAC address to
communicate with other devices. MAC cloning allows the SAG-1010 to communicate with other
devices in a wireless network using the MAC address of the host computer instead of its own.

2.2.1 Before you proceed
Take note of the following guidelines before installing the SAG-1010.
• The length of the Ethernet cable that connects the device to the network (hub, ADSL/cable
modem, router, wall patch) must not exceed 100 meters.
• Place the device on a flat, stable surface as far from the ground as possible.
• Keep the device clear from metal obstructions and away from direct sunlight.
• Keep the device away from transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent lights, microwave
ovens, refrigerators, and other industrial equipment to prevent signal loss.
• Install the device in a central area to provide ideal coverage for all wireless mobile devices.
• Install the device at least 20cm from a person to insure that the product is operated in
accordance with the RF Guidelines for Human Exposure adopted by the Federal
Communications Commission.
2. Hardware istallation

2.3 Placement
2.3.1 Wall mounting
Aside from desktop placement, you can install the
SAG-1010 vertically on a wall using the mounting
hook at the bottom side of the device.
Mounting hook
To mount the device on a wall:
1. Tighten a screw on the wall until only 1/4 inch is
showing.
2. Latch the mounting hook on the screw.
2.3.2 Window mounting
Using the window mount sets, SAG-1010 can be installed on flat window class, and receive
wireless signals from either side of the window.
To mount the device on a window class:
1. Compose window mount set. Reverse the suck discs, if the signal is from the other side of the
window.
2. Compose the window mount set on the middle of the bottom of the device.
3. Press both suck discs onto the window class. Make sure the device does not fall before leave
you hands.
Adjust the screw if you cannot latch the device or if the device is too loose.

2.4 Operating range
2.4.1 Range
The SAG-1010 range is dependent on the operating environment. Every home or office layout
varies in obstacles, barriers, or wall types which may reflect or absorb radio signals. For example,
two 802.11b devices in an open space may achieve an operating distance of up to 1000 meters,
(3280 feet) while the same devices may only achieve up to 300 meters (984 feet) of range when
used indoors.
The device automatically adjusts the data rate to maintain an operational wireless connection. A
wireless device that is close to an AP may operate at higher speeds than a device far from the AP.
You can configure the data rates that a device uses. If you limit the range of data rates available
to an AP, you may reduce the effective range of the wireless LAN coverage.
2.4.2 Site Survey
A site survey (utility provided with the SAG-1010) analyzes the installation environment and
provides users with recommendations for equipment and its placement. The optimum placement
differ depending on the device design and specifications.
3. Configuration
3.1. Web Configuration
The Web Configuration utility allows you to configure the SAG-1010 using a web browser on
your computer. The following sections provide information on how to launch and use this utility.
3.3.1 Adjusting the TCP/IP settings
By default, the IP address of the SAG-1010 is 192.168.1.1, and the Subnet Mask is
255.255.255.0. To access the configuration utility, assign a different IP address to the network
adapter where the SAG-1010 is connected.
To adjust the TCP/IP settings of the network adapter:
1. Right-click the Network Connections icon in the Windows® desktop, then select Properties from
the pop-up menu. The Network and Dial-up Connections window appears.
2. Right-click the network adapter used by the the SAG-1010, then select Properties from the pop-up
menu. The Local Area Connection Properties window appears.

3. Double-click the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) item to
display the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties
window.
4. Check the Use the following IP address option, then
enter the IP address for the network adapter. The IP
address must be 192.168.1.X.
(X can be any number between 2 and 254 that is not
used by another device.)

2. Disable your proxy settings, if any.
3. Type http://192.168.1.1 on the address bar of the browser, and then press .
4. Log on to the configuration window using the user name (admin) and password (admin),
then click OK.
This option requires you to change the IP address of the LAN adapter where the SAG1010 is connected. Make sure the IP address of the SAG-1010 and your computer is on
the same subnet.
3.3.3 Changing the Access Point (AP) Configuration
Simple Setup Page
The Simple Setup page displays the default AP settings of the SAG-1010.
Use this page to set the AP channel, operation mode, and security.
Clicking the select button displays available options for that field. If you wish to load the default
settings, press the device reset button for more than five seconds, and then refresh your browser
to display the default values.
SSID (Service Set Identifier). This field displays the SSID of the device.
Enabling the Response to Broadcast SSID requests option allows the device to broadcast its
SSID in a wireless network. This allows other wireless devices to scan and establish
communication with the device.
Un-checking this option hides the SSID to prevent other wireless devices from recognizing and
connecting to the device.
