1. Introduction
1.1. Summary
ECB7510 is a Dual Band Concurrent Wireless
11A/B/G/N AP with dual CPU that offers user
unprecedented network performance. WMM support
boosts streaming and multimedia intensive services.
It supports 2.4Ghz band under 802.11 b/g/n mode
while providing 5Ghz band to guarantee an
interference-free network access.
Multiple SSID provides advance users to
manage multiple users of various needs. TX power
control enables flexible transmission tuning for
different installation needs and prevents malicious
eaves-dropping. Isolation, filter, firewall and full
coverage of security standards promise a securer
network environment.
Dual CPU operates work simultaneously therefore users can enjoy gaming, music
or HD video on 5GHz band while web-surfing or emailing on 2.4Ghz. It also provides with
built-in 1-port full-duplex 10/100/1000 Fast Switch. ECB7510 is definitely the optimal
choice for middle & small businesses.

2.2. ECB7510 Placement
You can place ECB7510 on a desk or any other flat surface, or you can mount it on a wall.
For optimal performance, place your device in the center of your office (or your home) in a
location that is away from any potential source of interference, such as a metal wall or
microwave oven. You may need to tune your antenna angle to get optimized wireless
performance.
Wall Mount Instruction
You can mount the device on the wall. There are two mounting points on the bottom of the
device. Please find a proper spot where two nails can be applied. Finally, carefully mount the
device onto the wall and make sure the nails are firmly locked on the mount points.

3. SYSTEM
3.1. Operation Mode
You are allowed to change the operation mode for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios. However,
there are combinations that are not allowed. Please refer the following table for the mode
combinations. Those that marked Yes are considered legal settings.
Operation Mode Matrix
AP WDS CB UR Disable
AP Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes
WDS Yes n/a n/a n/a Yes
CB Yes n/a n/a n/a Yes
UR Yes n/a n/a n/a Yes
Disable Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes
This page allows you to change the operating mode for both radios. You can use the drop
down menu to select AP/CB/WDS Repeater/Repeater mode and you can also disable certain
radio.
Caution: CB/ WDS Repeater/Repeater can only operate in one single radio. You can not use
those operating modes on both radios.
