Positioning W500 You can place W500 on a flat surface such as a table or cupboard or mount the
unit upright e.g. on a wall. The W500 antenna works best in an open environ-
ment with as few obstacles as possible.
Connecting the
Ethernet Cable
W500 supports a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection. Connect one end of the
Ethernet cable to the W500 RJ-45 connector. Connect the other end of the RK-
45 cable with a switch, hub or computer.
Establishing Power
Supply
Connect the power supply unit with the power supply. W500 automatically starts
a self-test. Wait for around a minute until the WLAN LED is lit steady and
W500
switches to normal operation.
Defining Settings for
Wireless Devices
For accessing W500 the wireless devices (802.11b or 802.11g standard) must
be configured according to the
W500 settings. The default settings for W500 are
as follows:
NETWORK NAME: Funkwerk-ec
CHANNEL: 6
OPERATING MODE: AP
WLAN SECURITY: OFF
Note
The W500 access point must only be operated with the approved power supply
unit supplied.
Note
It is strongly recommended to set WLAN SECURITY to ON and to change the
W500 security mode fromdisabled (default settings) to WPA2-PSK
(recommended setting). Please find the necessary setup steps in
Chapter
4.2.4 (Setting Security Mode).
