1. Product Overview
IEEE 802.11n Wireless
Thanks to its embedded Access Point, based on the most recently 802.11n
specifications, is possible to create high performance WLANs with extended
coverage. NetFly AP4 is designed to operate in every working environment
(domestic or SoHo).
No more dead zones and high speed (up to 6 times than traditional IEEE802.11b/g
networks) are the most impressive characteristics of this innovative wireless
technology, that ensure excellent throughtput performances merging with total
freedom of mobility.
The chipsets fully support Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) and the IEEE802.1x
(Supplicant function in CB mode) security standards in hardware and high-speed
encryption engines with no performance degradation.
Multi-Function Access Point
The WDS (up to 4 AP) feature makes the device an ideal solution for quickly
creating and extending a wireless local area network (WLAN) in offices or other
workplaces. A pair of Wireless Multi-Function APs operating under Bridge mode to
act as the bridge that connect two Ethernet networks or Ethernet enabled clients
together.
Repeater Mode is able to extend the effective range and coverage of the wireless
network.
Last but not least the AP will be a Wireless Ethernet Adapter transforms any
Ethernet-enabled (Console, Pinter, DLNA player, TV, NAS) devices to have the
wireless function.
When Router function is enabled, it is possible to add between the 2 interfaces,
Wireless and Ethernet, different services (NAT, firewall and QoS).
Virtual AP
The device supports up to 4 SSIDs (client isolation) with VLAN tag that allows
NetFly to perform as multiple virtual access points.
Wall Plug mount and compact size for an easy installation.

This section describes the configuration required by LAN-attached PCs that
communicate with the Wireless Multi-Function Access Point, either to configure the
device or for network access. These PCs must have an Ethernet interface (or
wireless adapter) installed properly, be connected to the Wireless Multi-Function
Access Point either directly or through an external repeater hub or by wireless, and
have TCP/IP installed and configured with a fixed IP address that must be in the
same subnet of the Wireless Multi-Function Access Point. The default IP address of
the Wireless Multi-Function Access Point is 192.168.1.2 and subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. For example, when the default network address of the default IP
address of the AP is 192.168.1.1, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.1.x
(where x is a number between 5 and 254), and the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
Please follow the steps below for PC‟s network environment installation. First of all,
please check your PC‟s network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and
Ethernet network adapter must be installed. If not, please refer to MS Windows
related manuals.
