Installation Considerations
The TEW-690AP allows you to access your network by using a wireless connection from
virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind that the number, thickness and
location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may
limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF
(radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to
follow these basic guidelines:
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.

Page 21
access at the same time. Although the wireless b/g/n operates in the same 2.4GHz frequency, it
will allow the use of other 2.4GHz client devices (Wireless b/g/n) to connect and access at the
same time.
Wireless Name (SSID)
When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the name that will appear in the list
(unless Broadcast Network Name is set to Disable, see below). This name is also referred to as the SSID.
For security purposes, it is highly recommended to change from the pre-configured network name. Add
up to three additional SSIDs to create virtual wireless networks from one wireless Access Point.
Multiple SSID #
This Access Point support multiple SSID function, you can assign three more SSID for the TEW-690AP.
Create virtual SSID wireless networks (WLAN) with different type of wireless security for each virtual
WLAN that is created. When using the wireless adapter wireless site survey tool, there will be additional
wireless network to connect with once the feature is enabled.

To add additional Wireless Network Names simply add the name to the Multiple SSID field and click on
apply at the bottom of the page. When finished, go to the Security section in this Users Guide for wireless
security configuration.
Multiple SSIDs
Page 22
Broadcast Network Name (SSID)
This option allows you to hide your wireless network. 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 mode is disabled, you must enter the Wireless Network
Name (SSID) on the client manually to connect to the network.
Frequency (Channel)
A wireless network uses specific channels in the wireless spectrum to handle communication between
clients. Some channels in your area may have interference from other electronic devices. Choose the
clearest channel to help optimize the performance and coverage of your wireless network.
WDS Mode
When WDS is enabled, this access point functions as a wireless bridge and is able to wirelessly
communicate with other access points via WDS links. A WDS link is bidirectional; both end points must
support WDS and each access point must know the MAC Address of the other. Each access point will be
configured with the remote access point’s MAC address and vice versa. Make sure all access points are
configured with the same SSID, channel and wireless encryption settings.
WDS configuration option enabled
Page 23
Operating Mode
If you have both wireless g and wireless n client devices included on your wireless network at the same
time, you should choose Mixed Mode. And if you only have wireless n client devices on your wireless
network, you can choose Green Field to enjoy high throughput.
Channel Bandwidth
The "20/40” MHz option is usually best. The other option is available for special circumstances.
20/40 Coexistence
When Disable is chosen, your network will operate under 20/40 mode.
Guard Interval
Using “Auto” option can increase throughput. However, it can also increase error rate in some
installations, due to increased sensitivity to radio-frequency reflections. Select the option that works best
for your installation.
MCS
The Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) is a value that determines the modulation, coding and
number of spatial channels. This parameter represents transmission rate. By default (Auto) the fastest
possible transmission rate will be selected. You have the option of selecting the speed if necessary.
Fix MCS rate for HT rate 0-15
Reserve Direction Grant (RDG)
Disable or enable reserve direction grant. Default is enabled.
Extension Channel
When 20/40 channel bandwidth has been chosen, you should select extension channel to get higher
throughput.

ADVANCED
Beacon Interval
Beacons are packets sent by a wireless Access Point to synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon
Period value between 20 and 1000. The default value is set to 100 milliseconds.
Data Beacon Rate (DTIM)
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 Interval 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 255.
Fragment Threshold
This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may
result in poor performance.
RTS Threshold
This setting should remain at its default value of 2347. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor
modifications to the value are recommended.
Short Preamble
Use to synchronize communication timing between devices on a network. Disable by default.
Short Slot
Enable or disable short slot. Default is enabled.
Page 25
MAC FILTER
The MAC address filter section can be used to filter network access by machines based on the unique
MAC addresses of their network adapter(s). It is most useful to prevent unauthorized wireless devices
from connecting to your network. A MAC address is a unique ID assigned by the manufacturer of the
network adapter.
Policy
Three policies can be selected - Disable, Allow All & Reject All.
