Getting Started with the WST-375L Congratulations on purchasing the WST-375L! This manual provides information for setting up and configuring the WST-375L. This manual is intended for both home users and professionals. 1.1. Package Contents WST-375L 2.4GHz Wireless 802.11n(DRAFT) Bridge CD-ROM (User’s Guide) Multi-Language Quick Installation Guide CAT-5 Ethernet Cable Power Adapter (12V, 0.5A) Using a power supply with a different voltage than the one included with your product will cause damage and void the warranty for this product. 1.2. Minimum System Requirements Installation Requirements Web Browser: Internet Explorer (6 or higher) Mozilla or Safari. A computer with a network adapter or wireless adapter properly installed. CD-ROM drive A router with an available network LAN port. A RJ-45 network cable. Proprietary and Confidential U-MEDIA Communications, Inc. 2. Introduction The WST-375L 2.4GHz Wireless 802.11n(DRAFT) Bridge is an high-performance, supports high-speed wireless networking at home, at work or in public places. Unlike most routers, the WST-375L provides data transfers at up to 300Mbps in 11n receiving mode. This bridge is also back compatible with 802.11g or 11b devices. This means that you do not need to change your entire network to maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 11n’s speed when you mix 11n and 11b/g devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate when you incorporate the 11n standard into your 11b/g network. You may choose to slowly change your network by gradually replacing the 11b/g devices with 11n devices. 2.1. Features Compact form factor design Affordable 11n product for easily migrating current 11b/g network to 11n network with higher data rate benefit Supports IEEE 802.11n (draft 2.0) & 11b/g 2.4GHz wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) application 2.412~2.472GHz frequency band operation Compliant with IEEE 802.3 & 3u standards Support OFDM and CCK modulation Delivers data rate up to 300 Mbps in 11n receiving mode. Support one LAN port Support WEP & WPA security Support two printed antennas Proprietary and Confidential U-MEDIA Communications, Inc. 3. Hardware Overview 3.1. LED Indications Proprietary and Confidential U-MEDIA Communications, Inc. 3.2. Rear Panel 3.3 Top View 3.4 Bottom View Proprietary and Confidential U-MEDIA Communications, Inc. 3.3 Installation Considerations The TEW-638APB AP lets you access your network, using a wireless connection, from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, 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. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the WST-375L and other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your wireless product’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized. 2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception. 3. Building Materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials. 4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate extreme RF noise. Proprietary and Confidential 10 U-MEDIA Communications, Inc. 3.4 Getting Start You will need broadband Internet access (a Cable or DSL-subscriber line into your home or office) Consult with your Cable or DSL provider for proper installation of the modem. Connect the Cable or DSL modem to the WRT-390L Wireless Broadband Router (WAN port). Ethernet LAN ports of the WRT-390L are Auto MDI/MDIX and will work with both Straight-Through and Cross-Over cable. Proprietary and Confidential 11 U-MEDIA Communications, Inc. 4. Using the Configuration Menu Whenever you want to configure your WST-375L, you can access the Configuration Menu through your PC by opening the Web-browser and typing in the IP Address of the WST-375L. The WST-375L’s default IP Address is http://192.168.10.101 Open the Web browser. Type in the IP Address of the Bridge (http:// 192.168.10.101) If you have changed the default IP Address assigned to the WST-375L, make sure to enter the correct IP Address. Select admin in the User Name field. Leave the Password blank. Click Login In. Proprietary and Confidential 12 U-MEDIA Communications, Inc. 4.1. Network 4.1.1 LAN Setting LAN Connection Type Choose "Static IP (fixed IP)" if your router does not support DHCP or if for any other reason you need to assign a fixed address to the AP. In this case, you must also configure the following fields. IP Address The IP address of the AP on the local area network. Assign any unused IP address in the range of IP addresses available for the LAN. For example, 192.168.10.100. Subnet Mask The subnet mask of the local area network. Default Gateway The IP address of the router on the local area network. Choose “DHCP (Auto Config)” if your router supports DHCP and you want the router to assign an IP address to the AP.
