Chapter 1 Introduction Thank you for purchasing WAP-4035. The WAP-4035 supports both IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g standards. You can use it to connect an existing WLAN, or to build up a new wireless LAN. Except for essential AP mode, WAP-4035 also provides AP Client/ Bridge/ Repeater and WDS (Wireless Distributed System) modes to accommodate all kinds of network topology. High data rate (up to 54Mbps) support allows faster communication between LAN and WLAN. Built-in 5-port switch with aut

the coverage. Please check the specification of the antenna you want to use, and make sure it can be used on WAP-4035. 4. WLAN Type If WAP-4035 is installed in an 802.11b and 802.11g mixed WLAN, its performance will be reduced significantly. Because every 802.11g OFDM packet needs to be preceded by an RTS-CTS or CTS packet exchange that can be recognized by legacy 802.11b devices. This additional overhead lowers the speed. If there are no 802.11b devices connected, or if connections to al

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation Before you proceed with the installation, it is necessary that you have enough information about the WAP-4035. 1. Locate an optimum location for the WAP-4035. The best place for your WAP-4035 is usually at the center of your wireless network, with line of sight to all of your mobile stations. 2. Assemble the antenna to WAP-4035. Try to place them to a position that can best cover your wireless network. The antenna’s position will enhance the receiving sen

Chapter 3 Web Configuration Web configuration provides a user-friendly graphical user interface (web pages) to manage your WAP-4035. An AP with an assigned IP address (e.g. http://192.168.0.1) will allow you to monitor and configure (via web browser e.g., MS Internet Explorer or Netscape). 1. Open your web browser. 2. Enter WAP-4035 IP address (default IP address is http://192.168.0.1) into the address field. Please also make sure your PC’s IP address is in the same IP range with WAP-4035

Parameter Description Mode Shows the current operation mode. Band 2.4GHz (B): It forces the WAP-4035 to operate in 802.11b only. 2.4GHz (G): It forces the WAP-4035 to operate in 802.11g only. 2.4GHz (B+G): It allows the WAP-4035 to operate in 802.11b and 802.11g simultaneously. ESSID The ESSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents the unintentional merging of two co-located WLANs. Please make sure that the ESSID of all stations in
