Welcome

Introduction

Welcome

Thank you for choosing the Wireless-N Access Point with Power Over Ethernet. This Access

Point will allow you to network wirelessly better than ever. An access point allows for greater

range and mobility within your wireless network while also allowing you to connect the

wireless network to a wired environment. The WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) feature is also

supported to help you simplify the setting up and configure security on a wireless network. The

Wireless-N Access Point even offers the convenience of Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability (in

addition to regular 12VDC power adaptor), so it can receive data and power over a single

Ethernet network cable.

This Access Point supports the latest 802.11n draft Specification by IEEE early 2006. It also

support 802.11g and 802.11b clients in a mixed environment. This Access Point currently can

support an 11n data rate up to 300 Mbps. Besides the higher data rate, 802.11n technology also

promises longer coverage by using multiple antennas to transmit and receive data streams in

different directions. Users are encouraged to update their firmware through www.linksys.com

when 802.11n specification is finalized by IEEE to ensure compatibility with all the wireless-N

devices.

Networks are useful tools for sharing computer resources. You can access one printer from

different computers and access data located on another computer's hard drive. Networks are

even used for playing multiplayer video games. So, networks are not only useful in homes and

offices, they can also be fun.

PCs on a wired network create a LAN, or Local Area Network. They are connected with Ethernet

cables, which is why the network is called "wired".

PCs equipped with wireless client cards or adapters can communicate without cumbersome

cables. By sharing the same wireless settings within their transmission radius, they form a

wireless network. This is sometimes called a WLAN, or Wireless Local Area Network. The Access

Point bridges wireless networks of 802.11n, 802.11g and 802.11b standards and wired

networks.

Use the instructions in this Guide to help you connect the Access Point, set it up, and configure

it to bridge your different networks. These instructions should be all you need to get the most

out of the Access Point.

Network Topology

Planning Your Wireless Network

Network Topology

A wireless network is a group of computers, each equipped with one or more wireless adapters.

Computers in a wireless network must be configured to share the same radio channel to talk to

each other. Several PCs equipped with wireless cards or adapters can communicate with each

other to form an ad-hoc network without the use of an access point.

Linksys also provides products to allow wireless adaptors to access wired network through a

bridge such as the wireless access point, or wireless router. An integrated wireless and wired

network is called an infrastructure network. Each wireless PC in an infrastructure network can

talk to any computer in a wired or wireless network via the access point or wireless router.

An infrastructure configuration extends the accessibility of a wireless PC to a wired network,

and may double the effective wireless transmission range for two wireless adapter PCs. Since

an Access Point is able to forward data within a network, the effective transmission range in an

infrastructure network may be more than doubled since Access Point can transmit signal at

higher power to the wireless space.

Roaming

Infrastructure mode also supports roaming capabilities for mobile users. Roaming means that

you can move your wireless PC within your network and the access points will pick up the

wireless PC's signal, providing that they both share the same wireless network (SSID) and

wireless security settings.

Before you consider roaming, choose a feasible radio channel and optimum access point

position. Proper access point positioning combined with a clear radio signal will greatly

enhance performance.

Network Layout

The Wireless-N Access Point has been designed for use with 802.11n, 802.11g and 802.11b

products. The Access Point is compatible with 802.11n, 802.11g and 802.11b adapters, such as

the notebook adapters for your laptop computers, PCI adapters for your desktop PCs, and USB

adapters for all PCs when you want to enjoy wireless connectivity. These wireless products can

also communicate with a 802.11n, 802.11g or 802.11b wireless print server (if available).

To link your wired network with your wireless network, connect the Access Point’s Ethernet

network port to any switch or router with Power over Ethernet (PoE)—or a PoE injector, such as

the Linksys WAPPOE or WAPPOE12. Note that the 12 VDC on the WAPPOE12 is for the splitter

output. Both PoE Injectors provide 48 VDC power output.

With these, and many other, Linksys products, your networking options are limitless. Go to the

Linksys website at www.linksys.com for more information about wireless products.

Example of a simple wireless network

Planning Your Wireless Network

Example of a simple wireless network

The above diagram shows a typical infrastructure wireless network setup. The wireless Access

Points are connecting to a Linksys switch that provides power to the Access Points. Each Access

Point can connect multiple wireless devices to the network. This network will provide

connectivity among wireless network devices and PCs that have a wired connection to the

switch.

The switch then can connect to a router that can connect to an ISP to reach global Internet.
