Chapter 1. Hardware Installation

This chapter describes the procedures for installing the AirEtherTM AP11

Outdoor Access Point.

1.1 Before You Start

After unpacking the system, make sure the following items are present and

in good condition.

1. AirEther AP11 Access Point

2. Inline Power Injector

3. AC Power Cord

4. MIL-C-5015 style RS232 Console Port Cable

5. Grounding Wire

6. Cross over Ethernet Cable

7. Two rubber dipole antenna

8. 30M MIL-C-5015 style Ethernet Cable

9. Mast Mounting Kit

10. Wall Mounting Kit

11. User’s Manual Disk

12. Hex Wrench

Version 1.0.0

1.2 Locate the Access Point and Inline Power

Injector Ports

Special Ethernet port 1 for connecting the MIL-C-5015 style Ethernet

Cable

Special serial port 2 for connection of the MIL-C-5015 style RS-232

console port cable

Grounding location 3.

Type-N RP antenna or RF cable connector 4.

Power & Data output port 5 for connection of the MIL-C-5015 style

Ethernet Cable

Data input port 6 for connecting the Ethernet Cable to a Hub, Switch,

Router, or PC.

Version 1.0.0

1.3 Installing the Antennas

Step 1: With the unit powered off, attach the dipole antenna to the antenna

connector as shown in Figure 1.3.

NOTE: Do not over-tighten the antennas; finger tight is sufficient. Position

the antenna vertically for best omni-directional signal reception.

Figure 1.3.

Before installing your WLAN system, we recommend that you test the

AirEther AP11 using the dipole antenna included in your package. Once

testing is completed, the AirEther AP11 is ready for use with any appropriate

antenna for your application.

Version 1.0.0

1.4 Installing the Console Port Cable

Step 2: Attach the Console Port cable to the Serial Port. Attach the other

cable end to the Serial Port on a PC running a terminal emulation program,

and set the terminal to 115200 Baud, No-Parity, 8 data bits, 1 Stop bit, flow

control(off), and ANSI compatible.

NOTE: This connection is required for setting up initial configuration

information.

After configuration is completed, this cable may be removed until additional

configuration is required via the Serial Port.

1.5 Connecting the power supply and Ethernet

cable

Step 3 Plug the female end of the power cord into the Inline Power Injector,

and then plug the male end of the power cord into a power outlet or power

strip. The Power LED on the front of the Inline Power Injector will light up.

Step 4 Run the cross over Ethernet cable (included in your package) from

Data Input Port (on the front of the Inline Power Injector) to the Ethernet

Port on the PC we mentioned above.

NOTE: This connection is required for setting up initial configuration

information. After configuration is completed, this cable will be removed,

and then you should run an Ethernet cable from Data Input Port (on the

front of the Inline Power Injector) to the LAN connection (such as a hub or

switch).

Step 5 Plug the MIL-C-5015 style Ethernet connector into the Special

Ethernet port on the back of the access point.

Step 6 Plug the RJ-45 Ethernet connector (the other end of the Special

Ethernet cable) into the Power & Data Output Port on the front of the Inline

Power Injector. When the Access Point receives power over the Ethernet

cable, the Access Point will start its boot sequence and the Active LED on

the front of the Inline Power Injector will light up.

Version 1.0.0

1.6 Outdoor Installation

Outdoor Access Point device can be mounted on the side of a building

or mounted to a mast as shown in following:

A wall (side) mount allows for mounting of the Outdoor AP11 on the

side of a building. This will provide a convenient mounting location

when the roof overhang is not excessive and/or the location is high

enough to provide a clear line of sight.

Grounding

A safety grounding system is necessary to protect your outdoor

installation from lightning strikes and the build-up of static electricity.

So direct grounding of the antenna mast, Outdoor AP11 and

Surge Arrester is very important. And so mounting the Outdoor AP11

on the antenna mast, you have to connect the Outdoor AP11 to the

same grounding system with the AC wall outlet.

The grounding system must comply with the National Electrical Code

and safety standards that apply in your country. Always check with a

qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether your outdoor

installation is properly grounded.

Chapter 2. Network Topologies

This chapter describes several main types of installations commonly

implemented using the AirEtherTM AP11 Access Point. This is by no means

intended to be an exhaustive list of all possible configurations, but rather

shows examples of some of the more common implementations (as shown

in Figure 2-1).

Figure 2-1

The AirEther AP11 can perform in router or bridge modes. In a wireless

topology, all communication between network stations is done through a

centralized Access Point. To show some possibilities of wireless topologies,

the following examples are provided:

1. Wireless Access Bridge

Chapter 3. Initial Configuration

This chapter describes how to easily setup and configure the AirEther AP11

Access Point. The AP11 can be configured into a wireless bridge or router

to meet different application needs. Administrators can use a wired LAN-

attached computer to configure the AP11 through a web browser or a telnet

session on to a LAN computer.

In this chapter, we only focus on how to quickly configure the AP11 with a

web browser. For detailed descriptions of the many configuration

parameters and network configuration, refer to Chapter 4.

3.1 Configure Requirements

The AP11 is shipped with configuration that can be utilized right out of the

box. The default configuration is a bridge between an Ethernet and wireless

network. Administrators simply need to interface the AP11 to a wired LAN.

For configuration details please refer to the following procedures.

Before setup, we must install AP11 first

1. Connect power adaptor and power on the AP11

2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the AP11 to the network

3. Connect a computer to the same network as the AP11

4. Start Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser program from a LAN-

attached computer. To access the web interface of the AP11, you have

to disable Access to the Internet using a proxy server function in

Windows 2000 [Control Panel / Internet Options / Connections/LAN

Settings] as shown in Figure 3-1.

5. Type the IP address and HTTP port of the AP11 (default port is 2000,

IP is 192.168.2.1) in the address field (http://192.168.2.1:2000/) and

press Enter. Make sure that the IP addresses of AP11 and your

computer are in the same subnet.

6. After the connection is established, you will see the user identification

window as shown in Figure3-2. Key-in the proper User Name and

Password to see the web user interface of the AP11. The default user

name and password is root and root, respectively

3.2 Configure the AirEther AP11

The AirEther AP11 can be configured into four operation modes:

1. Outdoor Wireless Bridge

2. Outdoor Wireless Router with PPPoE Ethernet connection

3. Outdoor Wireless Router with dynamic IP address Ethernet

4. Outdoor Wireless Router with static IP address Ethernet

The AP11 is shipped with default configuration as a bridge between an

Ethernet and wireless network. Administrators simply need to attach the

AP11 to your wired LAN. If administrators would like to configure the AP11,

please refer to the following procedures.

The web user interface can be grouped into Quick setup, Basic

Configuration, Advanced Configuration and Utility as shown in Figure 3-3.

The left menu pane is organized in a tree structure fashion. Move through

the tree by clicking on an icon to expand or collapse the tree. The nodes on

the tree represent web pages that allow you to view and modify the

parameters of the AP11.

If administrators want to connect multiple wireless computers to a

broadband (ADSL or Cable) modem or an Ethernet switch to surf the

Internet, you need to configure the AP11 as a broadband wireless router to

share a single IP address with the multiple wireless computers as described

as follows.
