UNPACKING AND SETUP This section provides unpacking and setup information for the Micro Wireless N USB Adapter. Unpacking The box should contain the following items: TEW‐648UBM Micro Wireless N USB Adapter Multi‐Language Quick Installation Guide CD‐ROM (Utility & Driver) If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement. System Requirements Before installation, check the following: Make sure your computer is running at least a 300MHz or above processor with 256MB RAM or above Make sure the USB ports are is USB 2.0 port The operating system on your computer must be the following: XP (Service Pack 2), Windows Vista, Windows 7 802.11n or 802.11b/g access point or router. Make sure the environment has minimal interference and obstructions. IDENTIFYING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS WPS Button Press the WPS button start the WPS pairing, the LED will begins to blinking for 3 blinks/second, once the connection is successfully established between the AP and the adapter, the LED will remain in solid for 5 seconds to tell the users that the connection has been established. After 5 second, the LED will light off to indicate user that the Access Point or Wireless Router is ready for a new WPS connection and the adapter is associated with the Access Point or Wireless Router. WIRELESS PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices. 1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path, rather than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the more signal you will lose. 2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce the range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will minimize the amount of obstructions between them. 3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass or even furniture may block or degrade the signal. 4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use the wireless adapter’s site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for your wireless devices. 5. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also impact your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that generates RF noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors. 6. Any device operating on the 2.4GHz frequency will cause interference. Devices such as 2.4GHz cordless phones or other wireless remotes operating on the 2.4GHz frequency can potentially drop the wireless signal. Although the phone may not be in use, the base can still transmit wireless signal. Move the phone’s base station as far away as possible from your wireless devices. If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices or installing additional access points. The use of higher gain antennas may also provide the necessary coverage depending on the environment. SOFTWARE INSTALLATION This section describes how to install the driver and utility for the Micro Wireless N USB Adapter. Windows Based Utility Installation 1) Insert the Utility and Driver CD‐ROM into your computer’s CD‐ROM drive and then click Install Utility. 2) Follow the InstallShield Wizard Instructions 10 3) Click Finish to restart the computer. 4) After the computer is rebooted, plug the Micro Wireless N USB Adapter into an available USB slot on your computer. 11 WIRELESS UTILITY SETTING The user can configure the wireless settings using the Wireless Adapter Configuration Utility. Double‐click the utility icon that appears in the taskbar. The Wireless Adapter Configuration Utility is divided into six sections: Link Info, Configuration, Site Survey, Profile, WPS and About. Link Information This is the default screen after launching the Utility program. Status: Shows the associated BSSID (MAC address), which can be used to identify the wireless access point or router that you are connecting to. SSID: Shows the current SSID, which must be the same as your wireless access point or router in order to establish the connection correctly. Wireless Mode: Shows the current wireless mode used. Encryption: Shows the current encryption mode used. 12 TxRate: Shows the current data rate used for transmitting. Channel: Shows the current channel for communication. Signal Strength: Shows the wireless signal strength of the connection between the Micro Wireless N USB Adapter with the Access Point. Data Rate: Shows the statistics of data transfer, and the calculation is based on the number of packets transmitted and received. Configuration This screen is where you set the basic wireless settings for the Micro Wireless N USB Adapter. Profile Name: You can modify the Profile Name to anything you would like, for example Home, Office, Play Room and etc. SSID: Service Set Identifier, which is a unique name shared among all wireless clients in a wireless network. The SSID must match the wireless access point or router’s SSID that you are connecting to. 13 Wireless Mode: There are two modes available for selection ● Infrastructure – to establish wireless communication with the LAN and other wireless clients through the use of Access Points or Wireless Router. This is most common type of connection. ● Ad‐Hoc – to establish point‐to‐point wireless communication directly with other wireless client devices. Authentication: The following options are available: Open System, Shared Key, WPA‐PSK, WPA2‐PSK, WPA EAP‐TLS, WPA2 EPA‐TLS . Select Open System, Shared Key for WEP data encryption feature. Open or Shared Key Open System and Shared Key require the user to set a WEP key to exchange data with other wireless clients that have the same WEP key. WEP is considered basic level of wireless encryption, if you would like higher security connection, WPA2 encryption is recommended. z Default Key: select one of the 4 keys to use. z Network Key: choose the encryption way, either in HEX or ASCII formats, and enter the password in the blank space. z Key Length: select 64 or 128 bits as the length of the keys Key Format: HEX or ASCII Key Length Hex ASCII Type characters 0-9, A-F, a-f alphanumeric format 64-bit 10 characters 5 characters 128-bit 26 characters 13 characters 14 WPA‐PSK / WPA2‐PSK If using the WPA‐PSK/WPA2‐PSK authentication method, please select the Encryption type for TKIP or AES then enter the Passphrase key. The minimum length is 8 characters. 15 WPA EAP‐TLS If using the WPA/WPA2 EAP‐TLS authentication method, please select the Encryption type for TKIP or AES then select the WPA/WPA2 Certificate from drop down list. 16 Site Survey This screen allows the user to scan for available wireless network. It also allows the user to establish wireless communications with an target device. Available Network – displays the wireless networks (wireless clients, access points or routers) that are within range. Select any one of the wireless networks by double‐clicking on it or select the SSID then click the “Connect” button. Click the “Refresh” button to scan for available networks. 17 Profile Profile – The user can create and manage the created profiles for home, work or public areas. By double‐clicking on one of the created profile, the setting will adjust to the specific setting such as SSID, channel, and encryption as saved by that particular profile. Add: Adds a profile. The following screen will appear. The user can enter the necessary information required for accessing the particular Access Point or Wireless Router. Remove: Deletes the selected profile Edit: Edit an exist profile. The screen will back to profile. Edit the SSID and select the Wireless Mode, Authentication and Encryption then click Apply to save the profile. When the Profile name was changed, a new profile will be added in the list. 18 Connect: Selected a profile from list then click the Connect to connecting to the wireless network with the profile setting. 19 WPS Wi‐Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is an optional certification program from the Wi‐Fi Alliance that is designed to ease the task of setting up and configuring security on a wireless network.
