together. Fully compatible with IEEE 802.11g wireless standard, this device not only
allows you to take advantage of mobility, but also to have fast Ethernet connection
with built-in four 10/100 auto-sensing switch Ethernet ports. Users on wireless LAN
and Ethernet LAN can share files, printers, and other networking resource each other
at a blazing speed. Best of all, with NAT technology, all users canshare single account
of Internet access by having this device connect to a DSL/Cable modem.
Integrated 802.11g wireless AP and 4-port 10/100 Mbps switch, it is quick and easy to
deploy wireless and wire LAN without spending extra cost of a wireless access point,
hub or switch. All LAN users are able to share internal network data, like files, printers,
and other networking resources in a blazing speed. The wireless Router’s efficient
antenna offers a covered range up to 30 meters indoor (150 meters outdoor) and
seamless roaming throughout wireless LAN infrastructure. More over, the wireless
operation provides 64 bit key and 128 bit WEP data encryption for high-level security.
With built-in NAT, this device not only provides natural firewall, protecting your
network from access by outside users but also extends your LAN connection. Users on
the LAN can share a single account of Internet access byhaving this device connect to
aDSL/Cable modem. This Firewall Router allows up to 253 users on the Ethernet
LAN simultaneously but makes IP configuration simple and easy. Configured as a
DHCP server, the Advanced Wireless 11g Router assigns anIP Address to every
connected PC on Ethernet LAN automatically. Also, DHCP client helps WAN port
obtain IP address dynamically assigned by ISP.
With a web-based UI (User Interface), this Advanced Wireless 11g Router is easy to
setup and maintain. With this exclusive user friendly interface, all functions can be
configured easily via a web browser such as Netscape Communicator and Internet
Explorer.

Chapter 1: Getting to know your Advanced Wireless 11g Router
This chapter describes the package contents and provides a list of features and
application illustrations of the Advanced Wireless 11g Router.
1-1 About The 11g Wireless Security Router
The 11g Wireless Security Router is a hybrid design product which combines Ethernet
technology and wireless access intoa single stand-alone unit. The device allows you take
advantages of both mobility and fast connection. All PCs whenever on wireless LAN or
Ethernet LAN can share files, printers and other network resource. Moreover, all users
can share single account of Internet access byhaving this device connect to aDSL/Cable
modem.
Ethernet /Fast Ethernet
Ethernet is the most widely-used network access method, especially in a Local Area
Nnetwork (LAN) and is defined by the IEEE as the 802.3 standard. Normally, Ethernet is
a shared media LAN. All stations on the segment share the total bandwidth, which could
be 10Mbps (Ethernet), 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet), or 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet). With
a switched Ethernet, each sender and receiver has the full bandwidth.
Fast Ethernet is defined as IEEE 802.3u standard, a high-speed version of Ethernet with
100Mbps transmission rate.
Wireless LAN
Wireless Local Area Network systems (WLANs) transmit and receive data through the
air by using radio frequency (RF). This offers some advantages like mobility, ease of
installation, and scalability over traditional wired systems.
Mobility: WLANs combine data connectivity with user mobility. This provides users
with access to network anywhere in their organization.For example, users can roam from
a conference room to their office without being disconnected from the LAN. This is
impossible with wired networks.
Ease of Installation: Eliminating the need to deploy network cable in walls and ceilings,
Installing WLANs is easy for novice and expert users alike.
Scalability: WLAN topologies are easy to change in various ways from peer-to-peer
networks for a small group of users to full infrastructure networks for hundreds of users
roaming over a broad area.
Wireless LAN is suitable for difficult-to-wire and frequently changing environments. It’s
also an ideal solution for mobile workers to access network resource and for setting a
temporary LAN when necessary
Wireless LANs can be set as “Aad-hoc”network and “Infrastructure”network. Unlike
the “Aad-hoc network”, where users on the LAN send data directly to each other, the
“Infrastructure”network includes an access point and users on the “Infrastructure”

11g Wireless SecurityRouter User Guide

network send data to that dedicated access point. Advanced Wireless 11g Router uses
“Infrastructure”network as Wireless LANs. Each wireless LAN PC within the range of
the access point can communicate with other wireless LAN PCs within the range.
