WAP7205 User’s Guide8CHAPTER 1Introducing the WAP72051.1  OverviewThe WAP7205 extends the range of your existing wired network without additional wiring, providing easy network access to mobile users. You can set up a wireless network with other IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac compatible devices. The WAP7205 is able to function both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks at the same time.You can create the following connections using the WAP7205:•LAN. You can connect network devices via the Ethernet port of the WAP7205 (A) so that they can communicate with each other and access the Internet.•WLAN. Wireless clients can connect to the WAP7205 (A) to access network resources. The WAP7205 also comes with one coaxial port that supports MoCA (Multimedia over Coax Alliance) technology (see Chapter 8 on page 49). Use a (supported) web browser to manage the WAP7205.1.2  Securing the WAP7205Do the following things regularly to make the WAP7205 more secure and to manage the WAP7205 more effectively.• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
 Chapter 1 Introducing the WAP7205WAP7205 User’s Guide9• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the WAP7205 to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the WAP7205. You could simply restore your last configuration.1.3  LEDsThe following sections describes the LEDs on the WAP7205.The following figure is the front panel of the WAP7205. Use the LEDs to determine if the WAP7205 is behaving normally or if there are some problems on your powerline network. Figure 1   WAP7205 Front Panel and Rear PanelThe following table describes the behavior of the lights on the WAP7205.

This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously saved, the password will be reset to the default Wi-Fi key. 1.4.1  RESET Button1Make sure the power LED is on.2Press and hold the RESET button. After 5 seconds, the power LED begins flashing.3Release the RESET button. The WAP7205 reloads factory defaults and begins to reboot.1.5  WPS ButtonYour WAP7205 supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), which is an easy way to set up a secure wireless network. WPS is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance.WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually. Each WPS connection works between two devices. Both devices must support WPS (check each device’s documentation to make sure).Wi-Fi 2.4G Wi-Fi 5GWhite On The WAP7205’s wireless LAN is ready. Blinking The WAP7205 is transmitting and/or receiving traffic through the wireless LAN.Off The wireless LAN is disabled.Amber Blinking The WAP7205 is negotiating a WPS connection with a wireless device.

WAP7205 User’s Guide28CHAPTER 6Wireless LAN6.1  OverviewThis chapter discusses how to configure the wireless network settings in your WAP7205. The following figure provides an example of a wireless network.Figure 12   Example of a Wireless NetworkThe wireless network is the part in the blue circle. In this wireless network, devices A and B are called wireless clients. The wireless clients use the access point (AP) to interact with other devices (such as the printer) or with the Internet. Your WAP7205 is the AP.6.2  What You Can Do• Use the General screen (Section 6.4 on page 30) to turn the wireless connection on or off, enter the SSID, select the channel, and configure wireless security between the WAP7205 and the wireless clients.• Use the More AP screen (Section 6.4 on page 30) to enable and configure multiple wireless networks on the WAP7205.
 Chapter 6 Wireless LANWAP7205 User’s Guide29• Use the MAC Filter screen (Section 6.7 on page 38) to allow or deny wireless stations based on their MAC addresses from connecting to the WAP7205.• Use the Advanced screen (Section 6.8 on page 39) to configure wireless advanced features, such as set the RTS/CTS Threshold and HT physical mode.• Use the QoS screen (Section 6.9 on page 40) to enable Wi-Fi MultiMedia Quality of Service (WMMQoS). This allows the WAP7205 to automatically set priority levels to services, such as e-mail, VoIP, chat, and so on.• Use the WPS screen (Section 6.10 on page 41) to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually.• Use the WPS Station screen (Section 6.11 on page 42) to add a wireless station using WPS. • Use the Scheduling screen (Section 6.12 on page 43) to set the times your wireless LAN is turned on and off.• Use the Channel Status screen (Section 6.13 on page 43) to view the status of all available channels as well as related information. 6.3  What You Should KnowEvery wireless network must follow these basic guidelines.• Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use the same SSID.The SSID is the name of the wireless network. It stands for Service Set IDentity.• If two wireless networks overlap, they should use different channels.Like radio stations or television channels, each wireless network uses a specific channel, or frequency, to send and receive information.• Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use security compatible with the AP.Security stops unauthorized devices from using the wireless network. It can also protect the information that is sent in the wireless network.6.3.1  Wireless Security OverviewThe following sections introduce different types of wireless security you can set up in the wireless network.6.3.1.1  SSIDNormally, the AP acts like a beacon and regularly broadcasts the SSID in the area. You can hide the SSID instead, in which case the AP does not broadcast the SSID. In addition, you should change the default SSID to something that is difficult to guess.This type of security is fairly weak, however, because there are ways for unauthorized devices to get the SSID. In addition, unauthorized devices can still see the information that is sent in the wireless network.6.3.1.2  MAC Address FilterEvery wireless client has a unique identification number, called a MAC address.1 A MAC address is usually written using twelve hexadecimal characters2; for example, 00A0C5000002 or 00:A0:C5:00:00:02. To get the MAC address for each wireless client, see the appropriate User’s Guide or other documentation.
Chapter 6 Wireless LANWAP7205 User’s Guide30You can use the MAC address filter to tell the AP which wireless clients are allowed or not allowed to use the wireless network. If a wireless client is allowed to use the wireless network, it still has to have the correct settings (SSID, channel, and security). If a wireless client is not allowed to use the wireless network, it does not matter if it has the correct settings.This type of security does not protect the information that is sent in the wireless network. Furthermore, there are ways for unauthorized devices to get the MAC address of an authorized wireless client. Then, they can use that MAC address to use the wireless network.6.3.1.3  WPSWi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance. WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually. Depending on the devices in your network, you can either press a button (on the device itself) or enter a PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the devices. Then, they connect and set up a secure network by themselves. 6.4  General Wireless LAN Screen Use this screen to enable or disable the WLAN, enter the SSID, select the channel and configure wireless security settings.Note: If you are configuring the WAP7205 from a computer connected to the wireless LAN and you change the WAP7205’s SSID, channel or security settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you press Apply to confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of your computer to match the WAP7205’s new settings.Click Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G or 5G to open the General screen.1. Some wireless devices, such as scanners, can detect wireless networks but cannot use wireless networks. These kinds of wireless devices might not have MAC addresses.2. Hexadecimal characters are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F.

Chapter 6 Wireless LANWAP7205 User’s Guide326.5  Wireless SecurityThe screen varies depending on what you select in the Security Mode field.Channel Width Select the wireless channel width used by WAP7205.A standard 20 MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 150Mbps whereas a 40 MHz channel uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300Mbps. Because not all devices support 40 MHz channels, select Auto 20/40 MHz or Auto 20/40/80 MHz to allow the WAP7205 to adjust the channel bandwidth automatically.40 MHz (channel bonding or dual channel) bonds two adjacent radio channels to increase throughput. A 80 MHz channel consists of two adjacent 40 MHz channels. The wireless clients must also support 40 MHz or 80 MHz. It is often better to use the 20 MHz setting in a location where the environment hinders the wireless signal. Select 20 MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding.802.11 Mode 2.4 GHz is the frequency used by IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless clients. 5 GHz is the frequency used by IEEE 802.11ac/a/n wireless clients.You can select from the following:•802.11b: allows either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with the WAP7205.

WAP7205 User’s Guide49CHAPTER 8MoCA8.1  OverviewMoCA (Multimedia over Coax Alliance) is an industry standard organization, which created a standard for transferring data and multimedia content over the existing coaxial wires in your home. Data communication and audio/video streaming are allowed at the same time. The WAP7205 (A) automatically sets up a MoCA network when multiple MoCA devices (nodes) are powered on and connected with a coaxial cable. The WAP7205 supports MoCA 2.0 and is backward compatible with MoCA 1.1. The MoCA 1.1 technology provides 175 Mbps net throughputs (270 Mbps PHY rate) and operates in the 500 to 1500 MHz frequency range. MoCA 2.0 in turbo mode offers actual data rates of up to 1 Gbps MAC throughputs and operates in the 500 to 1650 MHz operating frequency range. MoCA 2.0 also supports improved packet error rate (PER) and two new power saving modes: Standby (reduced power) and Sleep (minimum power).8.2  What You Can Do• Use the MoCA screen (Section 8.3 on page 50) to set the MoCA Privacy, and enable multimedia and home networking over coaxial cabling.• Use the MoCA > Monitor screen (Section 8.3 on page 50) to view the MoCA network status and information about the connected MoCA devices (nodes).A

The extended band D in MoCA 2.0 is between 1125 MHz and 1675 MHz. Two sub-bands (D-Low and D-High) are defined within the extended band D.• Sub-band D-Low (DL): 1125 to 1225 MHz edge to edge (100 MHz wide)• Sub-band D-High (DH): 1350 to 1675 MHz edge to edge (325 MHz wide)At the time of writing, the WAP7205 supports the sub-band D-High only. LOF Last Operational Frequency (LOF) is the last RF channel center frequency which a MoCA device (node) will automatically turn to when it is last in the linkup state,The center frequency of a channel is a central frequency in the middle of the upper cutoff and lower cutoff frequencies. If you clear the Auto Channel Selection check box, manually select an operating frequency from the drop-down list.Network Search Select the check box to enable auto scan for the operating frequency.Primary Channel Select the first operating frequency range if you clear the Auto Channel Selection check box.The field options vary depending on the center frequency you select in the LOF field.
