Chapter 1 - Product Overview
Features
Supports IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11b/g
With support for current Wireless-N, Wireless-G, and Wireless-B standards, the AirStation can transfer data to and from all standard 2.4 GHz wireless clients.
Dual speed mode
Dual speed mode makes wireless transmission faster by using 2 channels, allowing 300 Mbps data transmission.
Support AOSS and WPS
Both AOSS (AirStation One-touch Secure System) and WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) are supported. These automatic connection standards make connection with compatible wireless devices easier.
Security Features
The AirStation is equipped with the following security features:
• AOSS
• WPS
• WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES)
• WPA2-PSK(TKIP/AES)
• WPA/WPA2 mixed PSK
• WEP(128/64bit)
• Privacy Separator
• MAC address access restriction
• Deny Any Connection/SSID stealth
• Password setting screen
• Firewall with easy rules
Automatic Channel Selection
Monitors wireless interference and automatically assigns the clearest, best channel.
Roaming
You can use multiple AirStations to cover a large area. Wireless clients can automatically switch AirStations for the best signal.
WBMR-HP-G300H User Manual 5

Chapter 1 Product Overview
Initialization
To restore settings back to the factory defaults, hold down the Reset button on the bottom of the unit.
Browser Based Administration
This unit can be easily congured from a web browser on your computer.
MovieEngine
MovieEngine uses QoS to optimise your network for mutimedia streaming. This can reduce jumps, distorted audio, and dropped frames while watching streamed video.
NAS (Network Attached Storage)
Attach a USB hard drive to the AirStation and share it on the network as a NAS. All connected clients can access it.
Gigabit Ethernet
This unit supports Gigabit Ethernet, allowing transmission rates of up to a billion bits per second.
Air Navigator CD Requirements
The AirStation wireless router and access point works with most wired and wireless devices. However, the automatic installation program on the CD requires a connected Windows 7, Vista or XP computer to run. If you use the AirStation with a dierent operating system, you will have to congure your network settings manually from a browser window.
300 Mbps High Speed Mode
300 Mbps is the link speed when using Wireless-N mode. It represents actual wireless data speeds, including overhead. Because the overhead is not available for user data transfer, usable wireless throughput will be substantially slower.

Automatic Setup
The AirNavigator CD can step you through installing your AirStation. To step through the setup program, insert the CD into your Windows 7/Vista/XP PC and follow the instructions on the screen.
If your computer uses a dierent operating system, use manual setup instead.
Note: · To use a wireless client in Windows 7 or Vista, perform setup using the AirNavigator CD to automatically
generate a profile for wirelessly connecting to the AirStation. After setup is complete, once the LAN cable is removed, you can connect from your wireless client to the AirStation.
· Before performing setup, make the settings to enable the wireless client of the computer.
Manual Setup
To congure your AirStation manually, follow the procedure below.

Power o your computers and networking equipment.
Connect your computer to one of the LAN ports on the rear of the AirStation with the supplied Ethernet network cable.

Chapter 3 Installation

Connection for the AirStation to the ADSL line varies by country and region. Typically it involves a microlter or a microlter with built-in splitter to allow simultaneous use of ADSL service and telephone service on the same telephone line. Please read the following steps carefully and select the appropriate method.
· If your telephone service and ADSL service are on the same telephone line, ADSL microfilters are needed for each telephone and device, such as answering machine, fax machine, and caller ID display. Additional splitters may be used to separate telephone lines for telephone and Router.
Note: Do not connect the ADSL microfilter between the wall jack and the Router—this will prevent ADSL
service from reaching the modem.
· If your telephone service and ADSL service are on the same telephone line and you are using an ADSL microfilter with built-in splitter, connect the splitter to the telephone wall jack providing ADSL service. Then, connect the telephone cord from the ADSL microfilter RJ11 port generally labelled ‘DSL’ to the gray RJ11 port labelled ‘DSL line’ on the back of your Router. Connect the telephony device to the other port on the ADSL splitter commonly labelled ‘Phone’.
Note: An RJ11 telephone cord is supplied. When inserting an RJ11 plug, be sure the tab on the plug clicks
into position correctly.
· If you have a dedicated ADSL service telephone line with an RJ11 wall jack, simply connect a telephone cord from the wall jack to the DSL port on the back of the AirStation.
4
· If you have an RJ45 wall jack for your ADSL service, connect an RJ45-to-RJ11 converter to the wall jack. Then connect one end of the telephone cord to the converter and the other end to the DSL port on the back of the AirStation.
Connect your computer to one of the AirStation’s LAN ports with the LAN cable.

When Connect on Demand is selected, the AirStation is automatically connected to the server only when communication is performed. The connection is disconnected if the communication is not performed for a preset time (disconnect time). Set the disconnect time in the range from 1 to 9999 minutes. When Keep Alive is selected, the AirStation issues an LCP echo request to the server periodically at preset time intervals, and the response received from the server is used to conrm that communication is enabled. If no response from the server is received, the AirStation assumes that the line is disconnected, and it disconnects the connection. Set the Keep Alive time interval in the range from 20 to 180 seconds.

Parameter Meaning
Wireless encryption You may use any of the following types of encryption:
No encryption
Data is transmitted without encryption. Avoid this option since any communication may be intercepted. [No encryption] can be selected only when [No authentication] is selected for Wireless authentication.
WEP
WEP is a common encryption method supported by most devices. Use an encryption key to communicate with a wireless device. WEP can only be selected when [No authentication] is selected for Wireless authentication.
TKIP
TKIP is an encryption method which is more secure than WEP, but slower. Use an pre-shared-key to communicate with a wireless device. TKIP can be selected only when WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK is selected for Wireless authentication.
AES
AES is more secure than TKIP, and faster. Use a pre-shared-key to communicate with a wireless device. AES can be selected only when WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK is selected for Wireless authentication.
TKIP/AES mixed mode
TKIP/AES mixed mode allows both TKIP and AES authentication and communication. TKIP/AES mixed mode can be selected only when WPA/WPA2 mixed mode - PSK is selected for Wireless authentication.
WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) A pre-shared key or passphrase is the [password] for your wireless
connections. There are two dierent formats for a pre-shared key.
Use 8 to 63 alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive) for a [character] (ASCII) passphrase, or use 64 digits using 0 to 9 and a to f (not case­sensitive) for a [hexadecimal] passphrase..

Parameter Meaning
WMM-EDCA Parameters You don't usually need to change these settings. Using the default
settings is recommended.
Priority
The following priorities may be applied to individual transmission packets: (Highest) 8, (High) 4, (Normal) 2, and (Low) 1. From the queue, these packets are processed in order of priority.
CWmin, CWmax
The maximum and minimum value of the contention window. The contention window is used in the frame collision avoidance structure performed in IEEE802.11, and generally, the smaller the value in the window, the higher the probability that the queue obtains the right to send.
AIFSN
The interval to send frames. The unit of the AIFSN is a slot, just as the window dened by CWmin and CWmax is. The smaller the interval of sending frames, the faster the algorithm can restart. As a result, the priority of the queue is higher.
TXOP Limit
The period of time that the queue can use after obtaining the right to send. The unit is 32 ms. The longer this time, the more frames can be sent per right to send. However, the queue may interfere with other packet transmissions. If TXOP Limit is set to 0 (zero), only one frame can be sent per right to send.
Admission Control
Restricts new frames from interfering with a previous queue. New packets are prioritized lower until a queue of them is collected. As the new queue accumulates more packets, its priority increases.
