Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,

pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,

uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the

instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no

guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the

equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the

following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that

to which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept

any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for

compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled

environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm

between the radiator & your body.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or

transmitter.

U-MEDIA declares that WAP -200A ( FCC ID: SI5WAP200A ) is limited in CH1~CH11 for 2.4

GHz by specified firmware controlled in U.S.A.

Wireless LAN Networking

This section provides background information on wireless LAN networking technology. Consult

the “Glossary” for definitions of the terminology used in this section.

THE INFORMATION IN THIS SECTION IS FOR YOUR REFERENCE. CHANGING

NETWORK SETTINGS AND PARTICULARLY SECURITY SETTTINGS SHOULD ONLY

BE DONE BY AN AUTHORIZED ADMINISTRATOR.

Transmission Rate (Transfer Rate)

The WAP-200A provides various transmission (data) rate options for you to select. Options

include Best (Auto), 1 Mbps, 2 Mbps, 5.5 Mbps, 11 Mbps, 6 Mbps, 9 Mbps, 12 Mbps, 18 Mbps, 22

Mbps, 24 Mbps, 36 Mbps, 48 Mbps and 54 Mbps. In most networking scenarios, the factory

default Best (Auto) setting proves the most efficient. This setting allows your WAP-200A to

operate at the maximum transmission (data) rate. When the communication quality drops below a

certain level, the WAP-200A automatically switches to a lower transmission (data) rate.

Transmission at lower data speeds is usually more reliable. However, when the communication

quality improves again, the WAP-200A gradually increases the transmission (data) rate again until it

reaches the highest available transmission rate.

Types of Wireless Networks

Wireless LAN networking works in either of the two modes: ad-hoc and infrastructure. In infra-

structure mode, wireless devices communicate to a wired LAN via access points. Each access

point and its wireless devices are known as a Basic Service Set (BSS).An Extended Service Set

(ESS) is two or more BSSs in the same subnet. In ad hoc mode (also known as peer-to-peer

mode), wireless devices communicate with each other directly and do not use an access point.

This is an Independent BSS (IBSS).

To connect to a wired network within a coverage area using access points, set the WAP-200A

operation mode to Infrastructure (BSS). To set up an independent wireless workgroup without an

access point, use Ad-hoc (IBSS) mode.

AD-HOC (IBSS) NETWORK

Ad-hoc mode does not require an access point or a wired network. Two or more wireless stations

communicate directly to each other. An ad-hoc network may sometimes be referred to as an

Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS).

To set up an ad-hoc network, configure all the stations in ad-hoc mode. Use the same SSID and

channel for each station.

When a number of wireless stations are connected using a single access point, you have a Basic

Service Set (BSS).

In the ESS diagram below, communication is done through the access points, which relay data

packets to other wireless stations or devices connected to the wired network. Wireless stations

can then access resources, such as a printer, on the wired network.

In an ESS environment, users are able to move from one access point to another without losing the

connection. In the diagram below, when the user moves from BSS (1) to BSS (2) the WAP-200A

automatically switches to the channel used in BSS (2).

Introduction

The WAP-200A Wireless AP/Bridge is an 802.11g high-gain, wireless AP that supports high-speed

wireless networking at home, at work or in public places.

The 802.11g standard is backwards compatible with 802.11b products. This means that you do not

need to change your entire network to maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 802.11g’s

speed when you mix 802.11b and 802.11g devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate

when you incorporate the 802.11g standard into your 802.11b network. You may choose to slowly

change your network by gradually replacing the 802.11b devices with 802.11g devices.
