1.2. Installation Considerations

Several environmental factors may influence the effectiveness of the radio signal. If you are installing a WLAN device for the first time ever, please take some time to read and consider this section.
The HorstBox Professional lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness, and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the HorstBox
Professional and other network devices to a minimum.
Each wall or ceiling can reduce the radio range from 1-30 meters (3-90 feet). Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
1.2 Installation Considerations 12
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices.
A wall that is 0,5 meters thick (1.5 feet ), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 1 meter (3 feet) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 14 meters (42 feet) thick! Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building materials can impede the wireless signal.
A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials.
4. Align the antenna for best reception.
Align and position the antenna until you get best coverage. Some WLAN devices or access points will help you with this task. Some­times fixing the antenna in a higher position advances the reception.
5. Keep distance to other devices.
Keep your product away (at least 1-2 meters or 3-6 feet) from electri­cal devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
6. Choose a useful combination of channels.
To avoid disturbances of radio waves, choose a useful combination of radio channels.
Standard 802.11b/g devices may always use 3 channels at once. It’s most effective to use a combination like 2/5/9, as the factory settings of most devices will be 6 or 11. Make sure the distance between the channels is a least 2 to 3 unused channels.

1.3 Standards-Based Technology 13

1.3. Standards-Based Technology
D-Link Wireless products utilize the 802.11b and the 802.11g standards.
The IEEE 802.11g standard is an extension of the 802.11b standard. It increases the data rate up to 54 Mbps within the 2.4GHz band.
802.11g offers the most advanced network security features available today, including: WPA , TKIP, AES and Pre-Shared Key mode.
D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products will allow you access to the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking brings.
A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is a computer network that trans­mits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. WLANs are used increasingly in both home and office environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many users.
Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network. Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.
People use WLAN technology for many different purposes:
MO BILIT Y any location within the operating range of the WLAN. Management deci­sions based on real-time information can significantly improve worker efficiency.

Plug the power adaptor plug into the power port of the HorstBox Professional.
Plug the power plug of the power adaptor into a socket. This will make the HorstBox boot up.
Boot up the computer you want to use for configuring the HorstBox.
All preparations are done now. You can start to configure the HorstBox Professionalafter the LED reports readiness of the device. These LEDs should be “on” by now: the computer connected to a LAN port is ready, too.
Note:
The default IP address of the HorstBox Professional is sure that your network is working in the same segment (192.168.0.x).
An easy way to configure the HorstBox is to connect a computer di­rectly and let it get an IP address from the DHCP server of the HorstBox Professional. Start the HorstBox Professional first, the computer second.
If you plan to integrate the HorstBox Professional into an existing network, you may want to disable the DHCP server temporarily as the HorstBox Professional provides another DHCP server as default. Using two DHCP servers uncontrolled in one network may cause severe problems.

Choose whether to use the Domain Name Service (DNS) and if so, which server to use.
Please note:
influence the settings on the tab DNS Mode.
Choose the option HorstBox Professional detect your ISP’s DNS servers automatically.
Choose the option names or IP address of a preferred and an alternate DNS server. You may choose DNS servers other than those of your ISP.

5.7. RIP Settings
The routing information protocol (RIP) is one of the most commonly used interior gateway protocol (IGP) routing protocols on internal networks (and to a lesser extent, networks connected to the Internet), which helps routers dynamically adapt to changes of network connections by commu­nicating information about which networks each router can reach and how far away those networks are.
For the protocol RIP (Routing Information Protocol) please define the routes for the traffic in your network in the routing table. You can specify the version of the protocol as well as the required direction of action.
Note: There is no need to enable RIP. Default: disabled.
Enable the option RIP and choose a protocol and a direction.
Protocols
RIP v1 RIP v2 RIP v1 compatible
Direction
In-Bound, Out-Bound, Both

5.8. Virtual Server
The HorstBox externally acts as server. It receives the requests of remote users under its public IP address and forwards them automatically to the Virtual Server. So a client in your network behind NAT or firewall can provide services as a Virtual Server. You just have to enable specific ports or port ranges and protocols (UDP/TCP). File sharing or web services for e.g. HTTP, FTP or POP3 are possible. The private IP addresses of the servers in the local network remain safe. If you have a dynamic IP address, you may want to enable DynDNS additionally.
First add a new rule and in a second step assign an IP address to the new rule. You may assign several rules to one IP address, but not the same rule to several IP addresses.
