Introduction
The SP915G Outdoor Bridge covers a long operating distance, providing an
802.11b/g outdoor WLAN which enables users to access the Internet or an
organization’s network.
At up to five times the speed of previous wireless devices, you can work faster
and more increasing productivity efficiently. With SP915G,
bandwidth-intensive applications like graphics or multimedia will benefit
significantly because across the network quickly.
SP915G can be configured in seven different modes (Wireless WAN, Access
Point, Repeater (WDS), Bridge, Client Bridge, Point-To-Point,
Point-To-Multi-Point), it offers 128-bit encryption, WPA and 802.1X
authentication when used with a RADIUS server, MAC address access control,
and additional security features.
It has Dual Radio functionality for simultaneous AP and Bridge operations for
backhaul applications. It is suitable for manufacturing plants, industrial sites,
military bases, universities, hotels, airports and golf courses.

To configure the OUTDOOR BRIDGE, use a computer which is connected to
the OUTDOOR BRIDGE with an Ethernet cable (see the
Network Layout
diagram).
First, disable the Access the Internet using a proxy server function. To
disable this function, go to Control Panel > Internet Options > Connections
> LAN Settings and uncheck the enable box.
Start your web brows ernet Ex
er program (Int plorer, Netscape Navigator) .
Type the IP address and http port of the OUTDOOR BRIDGE in the address
field
(http://192.168.2.254) and press Enter. Make sure that the IP addresses of the
OUTDOOR BRIDGE and your computer are in the same subnet.

A asswo
screen will pop up and request you to enter user name and p rd. The
default user name is “admin”, the default password is “default”
After the connection is established, you will see the user identification window

Device IP Setting Æ Ethernet
LAN is short for Local Area Network. This is considered your internal network.
These are the IP settings of the LAN interface for the OUTDOOR BRIDGE.
These settings may be referred to as private settings. You may change the
LAN IP address if needed.
IP address: The default IP address is 192.168.2.254. Assign a static IP
address that is within the IP address range of your network.
IP netmask: Enter the subnet mask. All devices in the network must share the
same subnet mask..
IP gateway: Enter the IP address of the gateway in your network.

Mode: AP/Bridge or Disable Wireless. Select AP/Bridge if you want to set
wireless in AP mode.
Speed: The speed are Auto, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 6Mbps, 9Mbps,11Mbps,
12Mbps, 18Mbps, 24Mbps, 36Mbps, 48Mbps, 54Mbps.
Channel: You can select 1 of 3 country setting (US: Channel 1 ~ 11, ETSI:
Channel 1 ~13, Japan: Channel 1 ~ 14 )(Note: Channel 14 only 802.11b
mode). All devices on the network must share the same channel. (Note: The
wireless adapters will automatically scan and match the wireless setting.)
ESSID: Service Set Identifier (SSID) is the name designated for a specific
wireless local area network (WLAN). The SSID’s factory default setting is
default. The SSID can be easily changed to connect to an existing wireless
network or to establish a new wireless network.
Preamble: Pull down select “long” or “short”.
idden SSID: Enable or Disable SSID broadcast. Pull down select “y” Disable
h
SSID broadcast or “n” Enable SSID broadcast. Disable this feature broadcasts
the SSID across the network.
Client Isolation: Pull down “y” isolation or “n” none isolation
Encryption
The OUTDOOR BRIDGE has the newest, strongest and most advanced
security features available today. When used with other 802.11 WPA (Wi-Fi
Protected Access) compatible products in a network with a RADIUS server,
the security features include:
WPA & 802.1x represent the first line of defense against network intrusion. In
the authentication process the RADIUS server verifies the identity of the client
attempting to connect to the network. Unfamiliar clients will be denied access.
EAP(Extensible Authentication Protocol) is available through the Windows XP
perating System. You will need to use the same type of EAP protocol on all
O
15
the devices in your network when using the 802.1x feature.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) authorizes and identifies users based on a
secret key that changes automatically at regular intervals. WPA uses TKIP
(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) to change the tempo
ackets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This
p
ral key every 10,000
ensures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (By contrast
the previous WEP encryption implementations required the keys to be
changed manually.)
PA-PSK allows home users that will not incorporate a RADIUS server in
W
their network, access to WPA security. Utilizing the Pre-Shared Key mode
WPA, the OUTDOOR BRIDGE will obtain a new security key every time it
connects to the 802.11 network. You only need to input your encryption
information once in the configuration menu. No lo
anually input a new WEP key frequently to ensure security. With the
m
OUTDOOR BRIDGE and WPA-PSK, you will a
very time you connect, vastly increasing the safety of your communication.
