Chapter 1 Introduction

Complying with the newly approved 802.11g standard,WL-8313 provides afasterwireless

connection for desktop users who want to access network resources. The gadget deliversdataat

speeds up to54Mbps, 5times datarate than 802.11b. It can operate in Infrastructure mode or

Ad-hoc mode based on your needs

WL-8313 provides 360 degrees coverage ofwireless access by employing adetachable dipole

antenna,which can be replaced with any types ofexternal antennas to bettersignal strength,link

quality and enhance signal coverage range. Supportof 64 and 128-bit WEP encryption plus WPA

(Wi-Fi Protected Access) high-level encryption keeps your wireless network from unauthorized

access and ensures secure data transfer.

WL-8313 is backward compatible with 802.11b products, allowing interoperability with any Wi-Fi

certified wireless 802.11b/gproducts, so both 11b and 11g clientscan reside on the same network.

Support of mostoperating systems such as Windows98SE/ME/2000/XP/Server 2003 offers greater

scalability and usability,making the device a perfect choice for users who aregetting tired of running

cables or in constant need of wireless access.

1.2 Applications

1.2.1 Infrastructure

The difference between Infrastructurenetwork and Ad-hoc network is that the former requires an

Access point.For old buildings, open areas, or frequently changing environments, just install the

WL-8313 on yourdesktop, and you thus can getconnected to the wired Ethernet through a

wireless Access Point. SOHO userscan then access the Internet and shareall kinds of datawith

the otherwired orwireless clientswithin the coverage of wireless signals. For enterprise users,

the installation of multiple Access Points to enlarge the coverage ofwireless signals can provide

wireless users with seamless network access.

The Infrastructure mode is appropriatefor enterprise-scale wireless access to acentral

database or provides various wireless applications for mobile users.

Infrastructure mode also supportsroaming capabilities for mobile users. More than one BSScan

be configured as an Extended Service Set(ESS). The continuous network allows users to roam

freely within an ESS. All wireless clientsusing WL-8313 or otherIEEE 802.11b compliant

wireless adapters within one ESS must be configured with the same ESS ID and use the same

radio channel.

Before adopting an ESS with roaming capability,choosing an available radio channel with less

interference is highly recommended. Proper Access Point positioning combined with aclear

radio channel will greatly enhance performance.

1.2.2 Ad-Hoc

Need awireless networking comprising of several desktops or laptopswithout any access point?

Configuring all the wireless adapters to operate in Ad-Hoc mode will be the easiestand

cost-effective way to meet your requirements.

An Ad-hoc mode is awireless network type in which agroup of computers equipped with

WL-8310 or other wireless adapters are connected as an independent wireless LAN. All

computers operating in this mode mustbe configured to share the same radio channel.

In this kind of network, newdevices can be quickly added;however,userscan only

communicate with other wireless LAN computers that are in this wireless LAN workgroup within

range.

1.2.3 General Application

WL-U356 offers afast, reliable, and cost-effective solution for wireless access to the various

network scenarios:

- 3 -3

1. Remote access to corporate network for information

Emails, file transfer, or terminal service.

2. Difficult-to-wire environments

Old or historical buildings, public occasions, venues and open area where it is difficult to wire.

3. Frequentlychanging environments

Factories, retailers, and offices that frequently change locations and rearrange the workplace.

4. TemporaryLANs for special projects or peak time

Events, exhibitions, construction sites or some important occasions that requiretemporary

network access.

5. SOHO (Small Office and Home Office)users

SOHO users in need of a easy-to-install and wide coverage networking

1.4 Package Contents

Before installation, please check the items of your package.The package should include the following

items:

1 x WL-8313

1 xDipole Antenna

1 xQuick Installation Guide

1 xDrivers and User s Manual CD

If any ofthe above items is missing, contact your supplier as soon as possible.

1.5 MinimumSystem Requirements

Before installation, please check the following requirements:

Operating System:Windows 98SE/Me/2000/XP/Serer 2003

Desktop PC with a CD-ROM drive

One vacant PCI slot

Important: WL-8313 is compliant with the PCI V2.2with 3.3V output voltage standard. Some old model

motherboards, especially those for Intel Pentium, Pentium II, AMD K6, K6-II, K6-III or CyrixM5, M6

processors, provide only PCI V2.0 or V2.2 slotswith only 5V output voltage that cannot be supported by

WL-8313. Therefore, toensure smoothinstallation of the Wireless adapter,please do examine the

system requirements for the adapter, particularly the specification of the PCI slots of the motherboard.

The PC with Intel Pentium III 600MHZ or above is highly recommended for bettercompatibility.

1.6 Installation Considerations

l Beware of the walls and ceilings. Each wall orceiling can reduce your wireless cover range form

3-90 feet. Properly position your Access Points, Residential Gateways, and computers so that

the number of walls or ceilings residing between Access Points and clients is minimized.

l Building materials make adifference –A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have anegative

effect on signal coverage range. Try to properly position Access Pointsand computerswith

wireless adapters so thatthere would be less obstacles existing between them.

l Keep your wireless LAN devices away from microwaves, cordless phones and child incubators. It

is likely that the latter will cause interferences to affect the operation of your wireless LAN

devices.
