This wireless Adapter is easy to use and easy to setup. If you have been tired of dealing with all those messy wires to connect a laptop or PC to office or home network, this Wireless adapter is an ideal access solution for wireless Internet connection. A typical Internet access application for the USB wireless adapter is shown as the following figure: There are two different ways to access Internet: 1. With a wireless adapter, receiving and transferring signal via a wireless router, then passed to an ADSL modem, then to local ISP (Internet service supplier) through a telephone line. 2. With a wireless adapter, receiving and transferring signal via local AP (Access Point) or so called Hotpoint directly. Tips: An 802.11 LAN is based on a cellular architecture where the system is subdivided into cells, where each cell (called Basic Service Set or BSS) is controlled by a Base Station (called Access Point, or in short AP). The WLAN ( Wireless Local Area Network) normally means the WiFi local network. 2. Package Contents One 150Mbps 1T1R 802.11n USB Wireless Adapter. User’s Manual.

There are several tabs for you to setup the function of the adapter. Please refer to the description in the following sections. 5.3.1.1. General tab Select “General” tab to check the connection status of the adapter. This screen shows the information of Link Speed, Network Type, Encryption Method, SSID, Signal Strength, Link Quality and Network Address of the adapter. User’s Manual Parameter Status Speed Type Encryption SSID Signal Strength Link Quality Network Address WLAN USB Adapter Description It will show the connection status of the adapter. It shows the current connected data rate. Infrastructure - This operation mode requires the presence of an 802.11 Access Point. All communication is done via the Access Point or Router. IBSS - Select this mode if you want to connect to other wireless stations in the Wireless LAN network without through an Access Point or Router. It displays the encryption setting of the current connection including None, WEP, TKIP or AES. The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique name to identify an AP. It indicates the wireless signal strength. It indicates the wireless link quality. It shows the MAC, IP address and other information of the adapter. 5.3.1.2. Available Network tab Click on the “Available Network” tab. The configuration Utility should scan and list the surround WLAN networks (by SSID of AP).

The default SSID of the AP is full computer name plus “AP”. Wireless adapters connect to the AP should set up the same SSID as the AP. Display the MAC address of the adapter. All the wireless adapters connected to the software AP will be displayed in the list. Click “Config” for setting more configuration of the AP. 5.3.2.2 Soft_AP Advanced tab 13 User’s Manual Parameter Beacon Interval DTIM Period Preamble Mode Set Defaults Apply WLAN USB Adapter Description Beacon Interval specifies the duration between beacon packets (milliseconds). The range for the beacon period is between 20-1000 milliseconds with a typical value of 100. Determines the interval that the Access Point will send its broadcast traffic. Default value is 3 beacons. The preamble defines the length of the CRC block for communication among the wireless stations. There are two mode including Long and Short. High network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble type Set the setting values to defaults. Confirm the settings in the “Advanced”. 5.3.2.3 Soft_AP Statistics tab You can get the real time information about the packet transmission and receiving status during wireless communication from the screen. If you want to recount the statistics value, please click “Reset”. 5.3.2.4 Soft_AP ICS tab Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) is the use of the 3G cellular service, broadband with Internet access broadband via Ethernet, or other Internet gateway as an access point for other devices. It was implemented by Microsoft as a feature of its Windows operating system, for sharing a single Internet connection on one computer between other computers on the same local area network. If you want to connect to the internet through this Soft_AP, you will need to make a bridge between our Soft_AP and your internet connection. Select the internet connection and press the “Apply” button. 14 User’s Manual WLAN USB Adapter Then your internet connection is internally shared with the Soft_AP. Other devices can be connected to the access point (by its SSID assigned) and then access to internet. 6. Tips for Wi-Fi users With a Wi-Fi connection, you can roam about 150m around the access point (depends on different environment), so find a spot where you can work without any interruption. Then see how much work you can do, such as: Easily and quickly receive and transmit files within your local network — no problem for big files. Access your email and surf the web with the same speed as that connected with network cables. Synchronize data between devices. Take advantage of wireless printing — send files directly from your laptop PC to a wireless printer over Wi-Fi connection. 7. Warning Wi-Fi offers greater speed and range than Bluetooth, but it drains your portable device batteries a lot faster than Bluetooth does. In fact, if you use a Wi-Fi connection regularly on your laptop PC, you'll undoubtedly notice that you need to recharge more often. If you need to conserve battery life — on a long trip for example — turn off your Wi-Fi connection when you don't actually need it. 15 User’s Manual WLAN USB Adapter 8. Security Because wireless networks rely on radio signals to transmit data, they are not as secure as wire network. Wireless networks are susceptible to viruses and breaches like eavesdropping and need to be protected in order to be secure. There are many security measures to safeguard wireless networks, protect the data, and keep unauthorized users out. Hotspots, on the other hand, are often free of standard security practices in an effort to make it easy for anyone to connect. It may be found that some pay hotspots administered by service providers offer have some level of security, however, when using a hotspot, it’s always a good idea to be proactive and to employ security measures of your own. 9. Key terms Wi-Fi: short for “wireless fidelity”, a generic label that refers to wireless networks or networking. Hotspot: a specific geographic location in which an access point provides public wireless broadband network services to mobile visitors through a WLAN. Throughput: the amount of data transmitted in a set amount of time. Bandwidth: the amount of data that can be carried from one point to another in a given time period (usually a second). Chipset: a group of microchips that execute various functions (like memory) to support the CPU. 10.
