© Copyright 2015 TRENDnet. All Rights Reserved. 6 TRENDnet User’s Guide Limited Warranty Application Diagram The access point is mounted a pole which is connected to the provided PoE adapter and then connected to your network switch or router. Wireless signals from the access point are broadcasted to each creating a Bridge/WDS connection, thereby providing network connection between both networks. Creating a Network What is a network? A network is a group of computers or devices that can communicate with each other. A home network of more than one computer or device also typically includes Internet access, which requires a router. A typical home network may include multiple computers, a media player/server, a printer, a modem, and a router. A large home network may also have a switch, additional routers, access points, and many Internet-capable media devices such as TVs, game consoles, and Internet cameras.  Modem – Connects a computer or router to the Internet or ISP (Internet Service Provider).  Router – Connects multiple devices to the Internet.  Switch –Connect several wired network devices to your home network. Your router has a built-in network switch (the LAN port 1-4). If you have more wired network devices than available Ethernet ports on your router, you will need an additional switch to add more wired connections. How to set up a home network 1. For a network that includes Internet access, you’ll need:  Computers/devices with an Ethernet port (also called network port) or wireless networking capabilities.  A modem and Internet service to your home, provided by your ISP (modem typically supplied by your ISP).  A router to connect multiple devices to the Internet. 2. Make sure that your modem is working properly. Your modem is often provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) when you sign up for Internet service. If your modem is not working contact your ISP to verify functionality. 3. Set up your router. See “How to setup your router” below. 4. To connect additional wired computers or wired network devices to your network, see “Connect additional wired devices to your network” on page 11. 5. To set up wireless networking on your router, see “Wireless Networking and Security” on page 12.
© Copyright 2015 TRENDnet. All Rights Reserved. 7 TRENDnet User’s Guide Limited Warranty 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. Getting Started For a typical wireless setup at home or office when using the access point in AP mode, please do the following: Hardware Installation 1. Remove the bottom cap. 2. Plug a Network cable to the Ethernet port. 3. Slide the bottom cover back to the unit.

Enter your desired network name (SSID) of your wireless network in the Wireless Network Name and click Apply to save settings. Connect wireless devices to your access point A variety of wireless network devices can connect to your wireless network such as:  Wireless Laptop computers  Network media players  Wireless IP cameras  Smart Phones  Gaming Consoles  Internet enabled TVs Each device may have its own software utility for searching and connecting to available wireless networks, therefore, you must refer to the User’s Manual/Guide of your wireless client device to determine how to search and connect to this router’s wireless network. See the “Appendix” on page 53 for general information on connecting to a wireless network. Steps to improve wireless connectivity There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices. Follow these tips to help improve your wireless connectivity: 1. 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. a. For the widest coverage area, install your router near the center of your home, and near the ceiling, if possible. b. Avoid placing the router on or near metal objects (such as file cabinets and metal furniture), reflective surfaces (such as glass or mirrors), and masonry walls. c. Any obstruction can weaken the wireless signal (even non-metallic objects), so the fewer obstructions between the router and the wireless device, the better. d. Place the router in a location away from other electronics, motors, and fluorescent lighting. e. Many environmental variables can affect the router’s performance, so if your wireless signal is weak, place the router in several locations and test the signal strength to determine the ideal position. 2. 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. 3. 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. 4. 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. If possible, upgrade wireless network interfaces (such as wireless cards in computers) from older wireless standards to 802.11n. If a wirelessly networked device uses an older standard, the performance of the entire wireless network may be slower. If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices or installing additional access points.

Leaving your wireless network open and unsecure could expose your entire network and personal files to outsiders. TRENDnet recommends reading through this entire section and setting up wireless security on your new router.
© Copyright 2015 TRENDnet. All Rights Reserved. 20 TRENDnet User’s Guide Limited Warranty There are a few different wireless security types supported in wireless networking each having its own characteristics which may be more suitable for your wireless network taking into consideration compatibility, performance, as well as the security strength along with using older wireless networking hardware (also called legacy hardware). It is strongly recommended to enable wireless security to prevent unwanted users from accessing your network and network resources (personal documents, media, etc.). In general, it is recommended that you choose the security type with the highest strength and performance supported by the wireless computers and devices in your network. Please review the security types to determine which one you should use for your network. Wireless Encryption Types  WEP: Legacy encryption method supported by older 802.11b/g hardware. This is the oldest and least secure type of wireless encryption. It is generally not recommended to use this encryption standard, however if you have old 802.11 b or 802.11g wireless adapters or computers with old embedded wireless cards(wireless clients), you may have to set your router to WEP to allow the old adapters to connect to the router. Note: This encryption standard will limit connection speeds to 54Mbps.  WPA: This encryption is significantly more robust than the WEP technology. Much of the older 802.11g hardware was been upgraded (with firmware/driver upgrades) to support this encryption standard. Total wireless speeds under this encryption type however are limited to 54Mbps.  WPA-Auto: This setting provides the router with the ability to detect wireless devices using either WPA or WPA2 encryption. Your wireless network will automatically change the encryption setting based on the first wireless device connected. For example, if the first wireless client that connects to your wireless network uses WPA encryption your wireless network will use WPA encryption. Only when all wireless clients disconnect to the network and a wireless client with WPA2 encryption connects your wireless network will then change to WPA2 encryption. NOTE: WPA2 encryption supports 802.11n speeds and WPA encryption will limit your connection speeds to 54Mbps  WPA2: This is the most secure wireless encryption available today, similar to WPA encryption but more robust. This encryption standard also supports the highest connection speeds. TRENDnet recommends setting your router to this encryption standard. If you find that one of your wireless network devices does not support WPA2 encryption, then set your router to either WPA or WPA-Auto encryption. Note: Check the specifications of your wireless network adapters and wireless appliances to verify the highest level of encryption supported. Below is brief comparison chart of the wireless security types and the recommended configuration depending on which type you choose for your wireless network. Security Standard WEP WPA WPA2 Compatible Wireless Standards IEEE 802.11a/b/g (802.11n devices will operate at 802.11g to connect using this standard) IEEE 802.11a/b/g (802.11n devices will operate at 802.11g to connect using this standard) IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n Highest Performance Under This Setting Up to 54Mbps Up to 54Mbps Up to 450Mbps* Encryption Strength Low Medium High Additional Options Open System or Shared Key, HEX or ASCII, Different key sizes TKIP or AES, Preshared Key or RADIUS TKIP or AES, Preshared Key or RADIUS Recommended Configuration Open System ASCII 13 characters TKIP Preshared Key 8-63 characters AES Preshared Key 8-63 characters *Dependent on the maximum 802.11n data rate supported by the device (150Mbps, 300Mbps, or 450Mbps) Secure your wireless network After you have determined which security type to use for your wireless network (see “How to choose the security type for your wireless network” on page 12), you can set up wireless security.

Selecting WEP (Open System or Shared Key): If selecting WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), please review the WEP settings to configure and click Apply to save the changes. Note: It is recommended to use Open System because it is known to be more secure than Shared Key.  Data Encryption: Choose the key length 64-bit or 128-bit. Note: It is recommended to use 128-bit because it is more secure to use a key that consists of more characters.  Key type: Choose HEX or ASCII. Note: It is recommended to use ASCII because of the much larger character set that can be used to create the key.  Key 1-4 o This is where you enter the password or key needed for a computer to connect to the router wirelessly o You can define up to 4 passwords or 4 keys. Only one key can be active at a given time. Most users simply define one key. o Choose a key index 1, 2, 3, or 4 and enter the key. o When connecting to the router, the client must match both the password and the Key number. (e.g. if you have activated Key 2 with a password of 12345, then the client must select: Key 2 (entering Key 1, 3, or 4 will block the ability to connect) and enter password 12345)  WEP Passphrase: Enter a passphrase and click Generate key to have the access point generate your encryption key.

Advance Settings Change your IP address In most cases, you do not need to change the access point’s IP address settings. Typically, the access point IP address settings only needs to be changed, if you plan to use another access point in your network with the same IP address settings, if you are connecting the access point to an existing network that is already using the IP address settings your access point is using. In addition, the access point can be used as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server to automatically assign an IP address to each computer or device on your network. If you already have a DHCP server on your network, or if you do not want to use the access point as a DHCP server, you can disable this setting. This setting would be used when the access point’s System settings is set to Router mode. Note: If you are not encountering any issues or are not faced with one of the cases described above or similar, it is recommended to keep your router IP address settings as default. Note: For VPN (Virtual Private Network) configuration, it is required that each router should have a different router or LAN IP address/network on each end of the VPN tunnel.
