Advanced wireless encryption secures your wireless network. Provide high speed Dual Band wireless coverage to stream HD media, download files and surf the Internet. Features  Wi-Fi Compliant with IEEE 802.11n (Draft 2.0) , IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11a standards.  Non-concurrent Dual Band architecture: create either a 2.4 or 5Ghz wireless network.  Add a wireless network with Access Point mode or expand your network with Wireless Distribution System (WDS).  Built in DHCP server allows for IP address distribution on the local network.  1 x 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX LAN port  Supports 64/128-bit WEP(for 11b/g), WPA/WPA2, and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK  Allow or restrict wireless access with MAC filtering  Easy wireless setup via WiFi Protection Setup.
UNPACKING AND SETUP This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the Access Point. Unpacking Open the box of the Access Point and carefully unpack it. The box should contain the following items:  TEW-670APB  Multi-Language Quick Installation Guide  Power Adapter  CD-Rom (User’s guide) If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement. Setup The setup of the Wireless Access Point can be performed using the following steps:  Locate an optimum location for the Wireless LAN Access Point (AP). The best place for your AP is usually the center of your wireless network, with line of sight to all of your mobile stations.  Visually inspect the Ethernet RJ45 port connector and make sure that it is fully plugged in to the system’s Ethernet switch/hub port.  Fix the direction of the antennas. Try to place the AP in a position that can best cover your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance will be. The antenna’s position enhances the receiving sensitivity.  Visually inspect if the Power Adapter was fully plugged to the device power jack.
