About TOSHIBA Wireless Solution
The Wireless LAN Module is a wireless network Module that complies with the IEEE
802.11 standard on wireless LANs (Revision B/G). The Wireless LAN Module supports
data rates up to 54 Mbit/s.
• Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance. This means that your Wire-
less hardware will communicate with other vendors’ IEEE 802.11 B/G compliant
wireless LAN product.
• Fully compatible with any of other wireless LAN system based on Direct Sequence
Spread Spectrum (DSSS)/Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)
radio technology that complies with the IEEE 802.11 standard on wireless LANs
(Revision B/G).
Wireless Interoperability
The TOSHIBA Wireless LAN products are designed to be interoperable with any Wire-
less LAN products that is based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)/Orthog-
onal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) radio technology, and is compliant to:
• The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs (Revision B/G), as defined and
approved by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
• The Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) certification as defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance.
Wireless LAN and your Health
Wireless LAN products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency electromagnetic
energy. The level of energy emitted by Wireless LAN devices however is far much less
than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like for example mobile
phones.
Because Wireless LAN products operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency
safety standards and recommendations, TOSHIBA believes Wireless LAN is safe for
use by consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the
scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scien-
tists who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of Wireless LAN may be restricted by the
proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of the organization. These situ-
ations may for example include:
• Using the Wireless LAN equipment on board of aeroplanes, or
• In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services
is perceived or identified as harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in a specific
organization or environment (e.g. airports), you are encouraged to ask for authorization
to use the Wireless LAN device prior to turning on the equipment.
Safety Instruction for Wireless Products
If your computer has wireless function, all safety instructions must be read carefully and
must be fully understood, before attempting to use our Wireless Products.

1. Setting Up Wireless Network
10 GN-1050 Operator’s Manual — Before Setting Up Wireless Network
Before Setting Up Wireless Network
Thank you for purchasing the GN-1050 Wireless LAN Module.
This product is a wireless LAN Module using the 2.4 GHz spectrum diffusion system,
and is compatible with IEEE Standard 802.11g and 802.11b for wireless LAN.
When the Wireless LAN is enabled, users can perform the following printing through the
Wireless LAN:
• Raw TCP Printing from Windows computers
• LPR Printing from Windows computers
• LPR Printing from Macintosh computers
• LPR Printing from Unix workstation
SUPPLEMENT: The instructions on how set up the client computers for WiFi printing is same as the
instructions for wired network printing. For instructions on how to set up the client com-
puters, please see Printing Guide.
NOTES: • To access the equipment through the Wireless LAN from the client computers, the
client computers must have the Wireless LAN Module.
• When you enable the wireless network, the existing NIC will be disabled. This
equipment cannot connect the wired network and wireless network at the same
time.
Planning for Installation
Before setting up the Wireless LAN Module for your wireless LAN network, read
through this section to understand the information that you require to set up the equip-
ment in your wireless LAN network.
1. Determine the Network Type
This Wireless LAN Module supports Infrastructure mode and Ad Hoc mode.
Infrastructure Mode
In the Infrastructure Mode, client computers can access to the equipment through a
wireless network via an Access Point. The Infrastructure Mode is suitable for the wire-
less network that many client computers are connected at the same time.
The Access Point will be required to establish the wireless network in the Infrastructure
Mode.
Access Point

1. Setting Up Wireless Network
GN-1050 Operator’s Manual — Before Setting Up Wireless Network 11
Ad Hoc Mode
In the Ad Hoc Mode, client computers can access to the equipment directory through a
wireless network without an Access Point. The Ad Hoc Mode is not suitable for the
wireless network that many computers are connected, however, it is easy to establish
the wireless network because the Access Point is not required.
2. Determine the SSID
In the wireless network, the same SSID (Service Set ID) must be assigned in each wire-
less device. Only wireless devices that have the same SSID assigned to them can
communicate with each other through the wireless network.
In the Infrastructure Mode, the SSID is usually set in the Access Point. Therefore, you
must set the same SSID in this equipment to communicate through the wireless net-
work via the Access Point.
In the Ad Hoc Mode, you must assign the same SSID that is assigned to other client
computers. To access the devices each other in the Ad Hoc Mode, the same SSID
must be assigned to each device.
3. Determine the Security Mode
This equipment supports the following wireless security modes.
WPA/WPA2/802.1x
Using the WPA/WPA2/802.1x authentication, you can restrict the access to the wireless
network using the RADIUS server. The WPA/WPA2/802.1x authentication is available
only when the wireless network is established in the Infrastructure Mode.
There are two protocols for the WPA/WPA2/802.1x authentication, EAP-TLS or PEAP.
When using the EAP-TLS authentication, you must install user certification file (must be
either DER, BASE64, or PKCS#7 encoding format) and CA certification file (must be
exported as a private key in PKCS#7 encoding format) in the equipment. This equip-
ment uses the user certification file to authenticate the access rights to the wireless net-
work, and the RADIUS server authenticate this equipment using the user ID and
password.

1. Setting Up Wireless Network
12 GN-1050 Operator’s Manual — Before Setting Up Wireless Network
When using the PEAP, you must install the CA certification file (must be either DER,
BASE64, or PKCS#7 encoding format) in the equipment. This equipment uses the user
name and password to authenticate the access rights to the wireless network, and the
RADIUS server authenticate this equipment using the CA certification file.
NOTE: This equipment supports following RADIUS server.
- For EAP-TLS: Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 Server, Funk Odyssey Server
- For PEAP: Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 Server
WPAPSK/WPA2PSK
The WPAPSK/WPA2PSK is an authentication method using the PSK (Pre-Shared Key)
between the Access Point and other wireless devices. The WPAPSK/WPA2PSK
authentication is available only when the wireless network is established in the Infra-
structure Mode.
To access the wireless network using the WPAPSK/WPA2PSK authentication, the
same PSK Path Phrase must be assigned in both the Access Point and other wireless
devices. If the PSKs are same between the Access Point and other wireless devices,
the Access Point allows them to access the wireless network through the Access Point.
The WPAPSK/WPA2PSK has stronger security than WEP because the data encryption
is improved over WEP. This equipment supports TKIP and AES(CCMP) encryption for
the WPAPSK/WPA2PSK authentication.
The TKIP provides a different key for per packet with a message integrity check. This
key will be changed for every fixed interval.
The AES is the next-generation cryptography algorithm that the U.S. government
improves to replace the DES and 3DES.
This authentication method is suitable for a small wireless network and easy to add the
security because the authentication server is not required unlike the WPA/WPA2/802.1x
authentication.
NOTE: When using WPAPSK/WPA2PSK, it is recommended to use a secure password for
WPAPSK/WPA2PSK.
WEP
The WEP is a data encryption method using the WEP key between the Access Point
and other wireless devices. Compared with WPA/WPA2/802.1x and WPAPSK/
WPA2PSK, the WEP is less security. If the wireless network is configured in the Infra-
structure Mode and the Access Point supports WPA/WPA2/802.1x or WPAPSK/
WPA2PSK, it is recommended to use WPA/WPA2/802.1x or WPAPSK/WPA2PSK
rather than WEP.
The WEP authentication is available for both the Infrastructure Mode and Ad Hoc
Mode.
