Chapter 1 Product overview
1.1 Production introduction
Thank you for purchasing Oplink opu1120
W150M is a portable wireless AP/Router with up to
150Mbps transmission rate. It supports five working
modes: wireless AP (access point), Client+AP, WDS+AP,
WISP Router and Wireless Router.
The default mode is wireless AP (access point) in this
mode the device can convert wireless and wired signals.
For example, in a hotel, you want to share the internet with
others, there is no need to set the router, the things you
need to do is to connect the router to the broadband access
point and configure computers to obtain an IP address and
DNS automatically.
The second mode is the Client+AP mode. In this mode
the router can repeat and amplify the wireless signals while
at the same time transmitting and receiving data on RJ45
port. Enable this mode to enhance the wireless signal,
when you and your neighbor share the internet, you can get
the amplified and stable signal. This mode also can be used

Oplink Communications
in broadband satellite receiver access.
The third mode is WDS+AP mode. In this mode, you
can bridge two local area networks or two computers and
meanwhile amplify and transfer the signals. This mode is
used for many devices wireless bridge and repeat.
The forth mode is WISP Router mode. In this mode, you
do not need to configure the signal transmitter but only to
simply configure the W150M to amplify the wireless
signal and multi computers can share the internet. This
mode is mainly used in hotspot access.
The fifth mode is Wireless Router mode. Use this mode
to form a local network that has both broadband
connections via broadband access cable and wireless
access. This mode can apply to various broadband access
environments, including ADSL, Cable TV Networks.
Having wireless AP and wireless Router function,
W150M is equipped with a "Mode" button to switch the
modes to achieve different wireless access. In addition, the
device can be powered by an alternative power supply
through the USB port to establish wireless networks freely.
The W150M is a solid choice for people with

Oplink Communications
always-moving network needs in search of a fast, secure,
easy-to-use, and feature-rich wireless network.

Chapter 3 Working Modes Introduction
This device has five working modes. You can change
the modes depending on the applications. This chapter will
introduce every mode in details. The default mode is AP
(access point) mode.
3.1 AP mode
In this default mode, the device worked as a converter
between the wired and wireless signal is in default settings.
If you already have a wired router in use, you can choose
wireless AP mode. Connect LAN port of the device to the
router in use with an Ethernet cable (refer to 5-1 for detail
setup). Then many wireless clients (generally the wireless
network adapter) can access at the same time. For example,
in a big hotel, connect the Router to the broadband access

Oplink Communications
port with the Ethernet cable and you can share the internet
with others. Of course, your wireless network adapter must
have the same SSID, Channel with the Router. If the
Router enables Wi-Fi protection, the wireless network
adapter also must have the same security mode and key to
access the router. Common network connection topology is
as follows.
3.2 Client+AP Mode
In this mode, the device can receive the wireless
signal, meanwhile amplify the signal and extend the
wireless signal coverage. The wired device can receive the
signal via the Ethernet cable. This mode is called the
wireless signal universal repeater mode which can amplify
the source signal to enhance the signal.
When you share the internet with your neighbor, you
can choose this mode to get a stable signal. In addition, it
can access to the IPTV set-top box, broadband satellite
receiver and such devices. This mode is very simple
avoiding the cumbersome cables. The topology is as
follows.
More details please refer to 5-2.

Oplink Communications
3.3 WDS+AP Mode
In this mode, the device can enhance the signal and extend
the wireless coverage. It can bridge two local area
networks or two computers and meanwhile amplify and
transfer the signals. The WDS+AP mode is similar as
WDS mode. Besides, many wireless clients can access
when the device works as a bridge.
3.4 WISP Mode
In this mode, you do not need to configure the signal
transmitter but only to simply configure the W150M to
amplify the wireless signal and multi computers can share
the internet. The device supports DHCP function to assign
IP addresses automatically and NAT function. If you
enable the WISP outside the house but the inside WISP AP
signal is poor, the device can enhance the signal and
improve the speed. If more than one wired computer
access, you can connect the LAN port of the device to the
switch and the switch to the computer.
The network topology is as follows.

Oplink Communications
More details please refer to 5-4.
3.5 Wireless Router Mode
In this mode, the device can be worked as the router
with wireless NAT function and DHCP sever. The laptops
can get IP addresses automatically which assigned by the
DHCP sever. When the RJ45 port connects to the
broadband access, the laptops can share the internet at the
same time. The topology is as follows.
More details please refer to 5-5.
Chapter 4 How to login to the Router

Oplink Communications
Chapter 5 Working Modes Setup Wizard
5.1. AP mode
In this default mode, the device can convert the wired
and wireless signal which is the center access point for few
clients (generally wireless network adapter). For example,
in a big hotel, connect the Router to the broadband access
port with the Ethernet cable and configure your computer
to obtain an IP address automatically and then you can
share the internet with others. Generally, the broadband
Router of the hotel has DHCP function, which can assign
IP address for clients.
This section guides you how to connect wireless client
to the access point, we will guide you step by step. Please
connect the device as follows.
Tip: Routers in hotels support DHCP function which can
assign IP addresses automatically. You only need to
configure you computer to obtain IP address and DNS
sever automatically to access the internet. (Setting ways
refer to 4.1.)
