Note: Before you starting hardware connection, you are advised to find an appropriate location to place the Access Point. Usually, the best place for the Access Point is at the center of your wireless network, with line of straight to all your wireless stations. Also, remember to adjust the antenna; usually the higher the antenna is placed, the better will be the performance.

1. Connect to your local area network: connect a Ethernet cable to one of the Ethernet port (LAN1,or LAN2) of this Wireless Access Point, and the other end to a hub, switch, router, or another wireless access point.

2. Power on the device: connect the included AC power adapter to the Wireless Access Point’s power port and the other end to a wall outlet.

3. Configure your PC: Make sure your local PC(s) has wireless network adapter(s) installed.

ABOUT THE WIRELESS OPERATION MODES

This device provides seven operational applications with AP, Bridge, Client (Ad-hoc), Client (Infrastructure) ,WDS Repeater, Universal Repeater , WISP(Client Router) mode which are mutually exclusive.

This device is shipped with configuration that is functional right out of the box. If you want to change the settings in order to perform more advanced configuration or even change the mode of operation, you can use the web-based utility provided by the manufacturer as described in the following sections.

AP Mode

When acting as an access point, this device connects all the stations (PC/notebook with wireless network adapter) to a wired network. All stations can have the Internet access if only the Access Point has the Internet connection.

To set the operation mode to Access Point, please go to “Wireless JBasic Settings”, in the “Mode” field click the down arrow b to select AP mode.

6 WLA-5200AP v2 User’s Manual

Client Mode (Infrastructure)

If set to Client (Infrastructure) mode, this device can work like a wireless station when it’s connected to a computer so that the computer can send packets from wired end to wireless interface.

To set the operation mode to Client (Infrastructure), please go to “Wireless JBasic Settings”, in the “Mode” field click the down arrow b to select Client mode, and then select “Network Type” as “Infrastructure”.

Client Mode (Ad-hoc)

If set to the Client (Ad-hoc) mode, this device can work like a wireless station when it is connected to a computer so that the computer can send packets from wired end to wireless interface. You can share files and printers between wireless stations (PC and laptop with wireless network adapter inst alled).

To set the operation mode to Client (Ad-hoc), please go to “Wireless JBasic Settings”, in the “Mode” field click the down arrow b to select Client mode, and then select Network Type as “Ad-hoc”.

7 WLA-5200AP v2 User’s Manual

Bridge Mode

You will be able to connect two wireless LANs together under the Bridge mode. This only works with another Wireless a/b/g Access Point. If enabled you must enter the MAC address of that Wireless a/b/g Access Point.

To set the operation mode to Bridge mode, please go to “Wireless JBasic Settings”, in the “Mode” field click the down arrow b to select Bridge mode.

8 WLA-5200AP v2 User’s Manual

WDS Repeater Mode

A repeater's function is to extend the wireless coverage of another wireless AP or router. For WDS repeater to work, the remote wireless AP/Router must also support WDS function.

To set the operation mode to WDS Repeater, please go to “Mode JRepeater”, click the “Setup” button

in the “Network Type” field, select as “WDS Repeater ” for configuration

9 WLA-5200AP v2 User’s Manual

Universal Repeater Mode

A universal repeater can also extend the wireless coverage of another wireless AP or router without requiring the remote device to have WDS function. Therefore, it can work with almost any wireless device.

To set the operation mode to Universal Repeater, please go to “Mode JRepeater”, click the “Setup” button

in the “Network Type” field, select as “Universal Repeater ” for configuration

Note: When you are using the universal repeater mode, please make sure the remote

AP/Router ‘s WDS function is turned off..
