`
`Network Topology
`
`A wireless LAN is a group of computers. each equipped with one Instant
`
`to share the same radio channel.
`
`Wireless"M SeriesAdapter. Computers inawireless LAN mustbeconfigured
`
`The Instant WirelessTM Series Adapter provides access to a wired LAN for
`wireless workstations. An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called an
`Infrastructure configuration. A group of Instant WirelessTM Series Adapter
`users and an Instant VVirelessTM Network Access Point compose a Basic Service
`Set (BSS). Each Instant WirelessTM Series Adapter PC in a BSS can talk to any
`computer in a wired LAN infrastructure via the Instant Wireless"M Network
`Access Point.
`
`An infrastructure configuration extends the accessibility of an Instant
`Wireless"M Series Adapter PC to a wired LAN. and doubles the effective wire—
`less transmission range for two Instant WirelessTM Series Adapter PCs. Since
`the Wireless Network Access Point is able to forward data within its BSS. the
`effective transmission range in an infiastructure LAN is doubled.
`
`The use of a Imique 1D in a BSS is essential. All Instant Vlfrreless"M Series
`Adapter PCs configured without roaming options in an independent BSS must
`be configured with a BSS ID used in the BSS.
`
`The wireless LAN Infrastructure configuration is appropriate for enterprise-
`scale wireless access to a central database. or as a wireless application for
`mobile users_
`_
`
`Infrastructure mode also supports roaming capabilities for mobile users. More
`than one BSS can be configured as an Extended Service Set (ESS). This corr—
`tinuous network allows users to roam freely within an ESS. All Instant
`Wireless"M Series Adapter PCs within one ESS must be configured with the
`same E88 1]) and use the same radio channel.
`
`Before enabling an ESS with roaming capability. choosing a feasible radio
`channel and optimum Wireless Network Access Point position is recommend—
`ed. Proper Wireless Network Access Point positioning combined with a clear
`radio signal will greatly enhance performance.

`to configure the Access Points settings. To work
`with USB ports. your PC must be running Wmdows
`98. 2000. or Millennium.
`
`Note: The Configuration Port does not connect your Access
`
`settings. Once the Access Point is configured, you may remove e USB cable connecting the Access Point to your PC.
`
`Also, your PC must have a USB port installed and enabled. Some PCs may
`have a disabled USB port. Ifyour port doesn’t seem to be working, there may
`be jumpers on the motherboard or a menu option in the BIOS to enable a PC’s
`USB port.
`
`Other motherboards have USB interfaces, but no ports. You can install your
`own USB port and attach it to your PC’s motherboard using hardware pur-
`

`Before making any changes to the Advanced tab. please check your wireless
`settings on other systems. as these changes will alter the effectiveness of the
`Wireless Network Access Point. In most cases, these settings do not need to be
`changed.
`
`- Fragmentation Threshold. This value indicates how much of the Access
`Point’s resources are devoted to recovering packet errors. The value should
`remain at its default setting of 2,346. If you have decreased this value and
`experience high packet error rates. you can increase it again, but it will like-
`ly decrease overall network performance. Only minor modifications of this
`value are recommended.
`
`0 RTS Threshold. This value should remain at its default setting of 2,346.
`Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are
`recommended.

`The Access Point automatically detects the settings to your wireless network.
`Changing these values will alter your current wireless network configuration.
`
`ESSID. The ESSID or SSID is the unique name shared among all points in
`a wireless network. The ESSID must be identical for all points in the wire-
`less network. It is case sensitive and must not exceed 30 characters, which
`may be any keyboard character. Make sure this setting for all points in the
`wireless network are the same. Verify that you’re using the correct ESSID
`and click the Apply button to set it.
`
`Channel. Select the appropriate channel from the list provided to corre-
`spond with your network settings. between 1 and 1 1 (in North America). All
`points in your wireless network must use the same channel in order to func-
`tion correctly. Verify that the correct channel is selected and click the Apply
`button to set it. A new dialog box will appear. Click the Yes button to accept
`the changes.
`
`Access Point Name. You may assign any name to your Access Point.

`generates its own key-pair and asks the receiver to accept the randomly-
`generated key. Once accepted this key is used for a short time only. Then
`a new key is generated and agreed upon. Shared Key is when both the
`sender and the recipient share a secret key.
`
`Preamble Type. The preamble defines the length of the CRC block for
`communication between the Access Point and the warning Network Card.
`(High network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble type.) Select
`the appropriate preamble type and click the Apply button to set it.
`
`Basic Rates. The basic transfer rates should be set depending on the speed
`of your wireless network. Set the correct basic rate for your wireless net-
`work and click the Apply button to set it.
`
`Antenna Diversity. These two settings determine whether either or both
`antennae will be used to transmit or receive. The default setting. Both,
`means that the antennae are set to both Transmit and Receive; this is the
`recommended setting. The WAPll will auto-detect which antenna to use
`based on signal strength.
`
`Auto Rate Fall Back setting should be checked to make your wireless net-
`work flexible for roaming wireless devices. As wireless devices move away
`from the Wireless Network Access Point.
`the transfer rate will
`
`automatically fall back to the most optimum rate allowed.
`
`Access Point
`
`— The
`
`Operational Mode is
`set to Access Point by
`default. This connects
`
`your wireless PCs to a
`wired
`network.
`In
`
`most cases. no change
`is necessary.
`
`The WAPll offers three modes of operation: Access Point. Access Point Client,
`and Wireless Bridge.
