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.

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 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.

Chapter 4. Telnet Configuration
The AP11 is designed to operate as shipped from the factory without any
special set-up. However, it has many options and parameters that can be
changed if the needed arises. Most of the management functions can be
accessed using the TCP/IP protocol, it can also be configured by Telnet or
RS-232 Console cable.
The administrator can configure the AP11 using a Telnet session on a
wired LAN attached computer. To use the Telnet session, you can
simply open a Telnet window using the IP address that has been
assigned to the AP11.
1. Click Start button, select Run to open the Run dialog box. Enter telnet
192.168.2. 1(default terminal type of Telnet is VT100, default IP
address of the AP11 is 192.168.2.1). Then click OK as shown in Figure
