1 Product Overview Thank you for using the ENH500. It is a powerful and enhanced business-class product with 4 multi-functions: Access Point, Client Bridge, WDS, and Client Router. EnGenius’ ENH500 uses the latest wireless standard, 802.11n, which allows for faster wireless throughput. The ENH500 affords a great advantage to minimize the time and cost which is required to expand your network. It operates at 5GHz and is also backwards compatible with 802.11a networking equipment. The E

1.2 Benefits Access Point Mode Use this feature to setup the access point’s configuration information. It supports transmit power and channel adjustments. Clients can access the network with different regulatory settings and automatically change to the local regulations. Client Bridge Mode Use this feature to connect to an Access Point, enabling WAN sharing. WDS Mode Use this feature to link multiple APs in a network; All associated clients from any AP can communicate with each other lik

1.6 Understanding the ENH500 LEDs The rear of the ENH500 has two groups of LEDs. One group, labeled INDICATORS, shows the status of the device. The second group, LINK QUALITY, shows the strength of the link between the ENH500 and the network. The following table describes the ENH500 LEDs. LED Color Mode Status Power Green OFF= ENH500 is not receiving power. ON= ENH500 is receiving power. LAN Green OFF = ENH500 is not connected to the network. ON = ENH500 is connected to the

2 Installation This chapter describes how to install the ENH500. Only experienced installation professionals who are familiar with local building and safety codes and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government regulatory authorities should install the ENH500. 2.1 Pre-installation Guidelines Select the optimal locations for the equipment using the following guidelines: - The ENH500 should be mounted on a 1"- 4" pole. Its location should enable easy access to

6. Turn over the ENH500. Then insert the mast strap through the middle hole of the ENH500. Use a screwdriver to unlock the pole-mounting ring putting it through the ENH500. 7. Mount the ENH500 securely to the pole by locking the strap tightly. This completes the installation procedure. 3 Wireless Network Modes 3.1 Access Point Mode In the Access Point Mode, the ENH500 functions like a central connection for any stations or

clients that support the IEEE 802.11a/n standards. Stations and clients must utilize the same SSID and Security Password to associate while within range. The most suitable topology for this mode is to have one ENH500 as an AP and the second one as a Client-Bridge – when necessary a third Client-Bridge can be place within the directional antenna’s path. One advantage of using the ENH500 to create point-to-point outdoor wireless links is when the environment is prone to radio interference on

Not every Access Point supports WDS in Access Point Mode. It is recommended to use ENH500s if you would like to utilize this functionality. 3.3 Client Bridge Mode In the Client Bridge Mode, the ENH500 functions like a wireless client, connecting to an Access Point wirelessly and enabling Internet connectivity wherever you want. Use Site Survey function to scan all of the Access Points within range and configure the SSID and Security Password to associate with it. W

3.4 WDS Bridge Mode In the WDS Bridge Mode, the ENH500 can wirelessly connect different local area networks by configuring each device’s MAC address and security settings. The WDS Bridge Mode can bridge up to four local wired networks together as one logical network. Every computer on this logical network can see each other, sharing files as if they are in the same location. With 600mW output power and MIMO antenna technology, the connection distance can extend

WDS Bridge Mode is unlike Access Point Mode. APs linked by WDS are using the same wireless channel, and connecting excessive numbers of APs on the same channel may result in lower throughput. Please be aware to avoid loop connections; otherwise enable the Spanning Tree Function. 3.5 Client Router Mode In Client Router Mode, the ENH500 provides two functions: 1) acting as a wireless-Ethernet Bridge in order to relay signal from the access point; 2) acting as an activ

4 Configuring Your Computer for TCP/IP This chapter describes how to configure the TCP/IP settings on a computer that will be used to configure the ENH500. Because the default operating mode is Client Bridge, an IP address will not be assigned to the computer/notebook. Therefore, follow the steps below to assign an IP address to a client’s Ethernet adapter. 4.1 Configuring Microsoft Windows 7 Use the following procedure to configure a computer running Microsoft Windows 7. 1. In the

3. In the Networking tab, click Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), and then click Properties. 4. In the properties dialog box, click Use the following IP address: to configure your computer for Static TCP/IP. Enter an IP address (i.e. 192.168.1.10), the subnet mask of the ENH500, and the default gateway which is the ENH500’s IP address, 192.168.1.1. Note: the subnet mask must match that of the ENH500 and the IP address must be on that subnet. 5. Click the OK button to save you
