Wireless setup
Assigning a Password to protect the configuration data.
PCs on your local LAN may also require configuration. For details, see Chapter 4 - PC
Configuration.
Other configuration may also be required, depending on which features and functions of the
Wireless Router you wish to use. Use the table below to locate detailed instructions for the
required functions.
Configuration Program
The Wireless Router contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect to it, and
configure it, using your Web Browser. Your Browser must support JavaScript.
The configuration program has been tested on the following browsers:
•
•
Netscape V4.08 or later
Internet Explorer V4 or later
Preparation
Before attempting to configure the Wireless Router, please ensure that:
•
•
•
Your PC can establish a physical connection to the Wireless Router. The PC and the
Wireless Router must be directly connected (using the Hub ports on the Wireless Router)
or on the same LAN segment.
The Wireless Router must be installed and powered ON.
If the Wireless Router's default IP Address (192.168.1.254) is already used by another
device, the other device must be turned OFF until the Wireless Router is allocated a new
IP Address during configuration.
Using UPnP
If your Windows system supports UPnP, an icon for the Wireless Router will appear in the
system tray, notifying you that a new network device has been found, and offering to create a
new desktop shortcut to the newly-discovered device.
•
•
Unless you intend to change the IP Address of the Wireless Router, you can accept the
desktop shortcut.
Whether you accept the desktop shortcut or not, you can always find UPnP devices in My
Network Places (previously called Network Neighborhood).
•
Double - click the icon for the Wireless Router (either on the Desktop, or in My Network
Places) to start the configuration. Refer to the following section Setup Wizard for details
of the initial configuration process.
Using your Web Browser
To establish a connection from your PC to the Wireless Router:
1. After installing the Wireless Router in your LAN, start your PC. If your PC is already
running, restart it.
2. Start your WEB browser.
3. In the Address box, enter "HTTP://" and the IP Address of the Wireless Router, as in this
example, which uses the Wireless Router's default IP Address:
HTTP://192.168.1.254
Because the default password is blank, you will not be prompted for a password. However, you
should assign a password. See the Password Setup section later in this chapter for details.
If you can't connect
If the Wireless Router does not respond, check the following:
•
The Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it is
powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" command:
•
•
Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.
Enter the command:
ping 192.168.1.254
If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or your
PC's IP address is not compatible with the Wireless Router's IP Address.
(See next item.)
•
If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the range
192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253 to be compatible with the Wireless Router's
default IP Address of 192.168.1.254. Also, the Network Mask must be set to
255.255.255.0. See Chapter 4 - PC Configuration for details on checking your
PC's TCP/IP settings.
•
Ensure that your PC and the Wireless Router are on the same network
segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
•
Ensure you are using the wired LAN interface. The Wireless interface can
only be used if its configuration matches your PC's wireless settings.

Wireless Station Configuration
This section applies to all Wireless stations wishing to use the Wireless Router's Access Point,
regardless of the operating system which is used on the client.
To use the Wireless Access Point in the Wireless Router, each Wireless Station must have
compatible settings, as follows:
Mode
The mode must be set to Infrastructure.
SSID (ESSID)
This must match the value used on the Wireless Router. The default
value is Untitled
Note! The SSID is case sensitive.
WEP
By default, WEP on the Wireless Router is disabled.
•
•
If WEP remains disabled on the Wireless Router, all stations must
have WEP disabled.
If WEP is enabled on the Wireless Router, each station must use the
same settings as the Wireless Router.
Note:
By default, the Wireless Router will allow both 802.11b and 802.11g connections.
46
Appendix A
T ro u b l es ho o ti n g
This Appendix covers the most likely problems and their solutions.
Overview
This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the
Wireless Router and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the
Wireless Router still does not function properly, contact your dealer for further advice.
General Problems
Problem 1:
Can't connect to the Wireless Router to configure it.
Solution 1:
Check the following:
•
•
•
•
The Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connections are OK,
and it is powered ON.
Ensure that your PC and the Wireless Router are on the same network
segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
If your PC is set to "Obtain an IP Address automatically" (DHCP
client), restart it.
If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using an IP
Address within the range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253 and thus
compatible with the Wireless Router's default IP Address of
192.168.1.254.
Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the
Wireless Router.
In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control PanelNetwork to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.
Internet Access
Problem 1:
When I enter a URL or IP address I get a time out error.
Solution 1:
A number of things could be causing this. Try the following
troubleshooting steps.
•
•
•
Problem 2:
Check if other PCs work. If they do, ensure that your PCs IP settings
are correct. If using a Fixed (Static) IP Address, check the Network
Mask, Default gateway and DNS as well as the IP Address.
If the PCs are configured correctly, but still not working, check the
Wireless Router. Ensure that it is connected and ON. Connect to it and
check its settings. (If you can't connect to it, check the LAN and power
connections.)
If the Wireless Router is configured correctly, check your Internet
connection (DSL/Cable modem etc) to see that it is working correctly.
Some applications do not run properly when using the Wireless Router.
Solution 2:
The Wireless Router processes the data passing through it, so it is not
transparent.
Use the Special Applications feature to allow the use of Internet
applications which do not function correctly.
If this does solve the problem you can use the DMZ function. This should
work with almost every application, but:
• It is a security risk, since the firewall is disabled.
• Only one (1) PC can use this feature.
Wireless Access
Problem 1:
My PC can't locate the Wireless Access Point.
Solution 1:
Check the following.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Your PC is set to Infrastructure Mode. (Access Points are always in
Infrastructure Mode)
The SSID on your PC and the Wireless Access Point are the same.
Remember that the SSID is case-sensitive. So, for example
"Workgroup" does NOT match "workgroup".
Both your PC and the Wireless Router must have the same setting for
WEP. The default setting for the Wireless Router is disabled, so your
wireless station should also have WEP disabled.
If WEP is enabled on the Wireless Router, your PC must have WEP
enabled, and the key must match.
If the Wireless Router's Wireless screen is set to Allow LAN access to
selected Wireless Stations only, then each of your Wireless stations
must have been selected, or access will be blocked.
To see if radio interference is causing a problem, see if connection is
possible
when
close
to
the
Wireless
Router.
Remember that the connection range can be as little as 100 feet in poor
environments.
Problem 2:
Wireless connection speed is very slow.
Solution 2:
The wireless system will connect at the highest possible speed, depending
on the distance and the environment. To obtain the highest possible
connection speed, you can experiment with the following:
•
•
•
•
Wireless Router location.
Try adjusting the location and orientation of the Wireless Router.
Wireless Channel
If interference is the problem, changing to another channel may show a
marked improvement.
Radio Interference
Other devices may be causing interference. You can experiment by
switching other devices Off, and see if this helps. Any "noisy" devices
should be shielded or relocated.
RF Shielding
Your environment may tend to block transmission between the wireless
stations. This will mean high access speed is only possible when close
to the Wireless Router.
48
Appendix B
A b o u t W i rel es s L A N s
This Appendix provides some background information about using Wireless
LANs (WLANs).
Modes
Wireless LANs can work in either of two (2) modes:
•
•
Ad-hoc
Infrastructure
Ad-hoc Mode
Ad-hoc mode does not require an Access Point or a wired (Ethernet) LAN. Wireless
Stations (e.g. notebook PCs with wireless cards) communicate directly with each other.
Infrastructure Mode
In Infrastructure Mode, one or more Access Points are used to connect Wireless Stations
(e.g. Notebook PCs with wireless cards) to a wired (Ethernet) LAN. The Wireless Stations
can then access all LAN resources.
Access Points can only function in "Infrastructure" mode,
and can communicate only with Wireless Stations which are
set to "Infrastructure" mode.
BSS
BSS
A group of Wireless Stations and a single Access Point, all using the same ID (SSID), form a
Basic Service Set (BSS).
Using the same SSID is essential. Devices with different SSIDs are unable to communicate
with each other.
Channels
The Wireless Channel sets the radio frequency used for communication.
•
•
Access Points use a fixed Channel. You can select the Channel used. This allows you to
choose a Channel which provides the least interference and best performance. In the USA
and Canada, 11 channel are available. If using multiple Access Points, it is better if
adjacent Access Points use different Channels to reduce interference.
In "Infrastructure" mode, Wireless Stations normally scan all Channels, looking for an
Access Point. If more than one Access Point can be used, the one with the strongest
signal is used. (This can only happen within an ESS.)
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a standard for encrypting data before it is transmitted.
This is desirable because it is impossible to prevent snoopers from receiving any data which is
transmitted by your Wireless Stations. But if the data is encrypted, then it is meaningless
unless the receiver can decrypt it.
If WEP is used, the Wireless Stations and the Access Point must have the same settings
for each of the following:
WEP
Off, 64 Bit, 128 Bit
Key
For 64 Bit encryption, the Key value must match.
For 128 Bit encryption, the Key value must match
WEP Authentication
Open System or Shared Key.
Wireless LAN Configuration
To allow Wireless Stations to use the Access Point, the Wireless Stations and the Access Point
must use the same settings, as follows:
Mode
On client Wireless Stations, the mode must be set to "Infrastructure".
(The Access Point is always in "Infrastructure" mode.)
SSID (ESSID)
Wireless Stations should use the same SSID (ESSID) as the Access
Point they wish to connect to. Alternatively, the SSID can be set to
"any" or null (blank) to allow connection to any Access Point.
WEP
The Wireless Stations and the Access Point must use the same settings
for WEP (Off, 64 Bit, 128 Bit).
WEP Key: If WEP is enabled, the Key must be the same on the
Wireless Stations and the Access Point.
WEP Authentication: If WEP is enabled, all Wireless Stations must
use the same setting as the Access Point (either "Open System" or
"Shared Key").
