• QoS. Quality of Service (QoS) support lets you configure parameters that affect traffic
flowing from the wireless access point to the client station and traffic flowing from the
client station to the wireless access point:
- The QoS settings let yo
u prioritize traffic, such as voice and video traffic, so that
packets do not get dropped.
- The QoS policies let you configure classifications (match clauses) and apply traffic to
eig
ht priority queues based on IP precedence, DSCP, MAC address, IP address, and
other information that might be present in Layer 2 and Layer 3 packet headers.
• W
ireless IDS/IPS. The wireless intru
sion detection system (IDS) and intrusion prevention
system (IPS) can detect and prevent a variety of wireless attacks. Att acks are covered by
preconfigured policy rules. When an attack occurs, the wireless access point can notify a
network administrator though an email.
• Hotspot support. Y
ou can allow all HTTP (TCP, port 80) requests to be captured and
redirected to the URL you specify.
• Rogue AP and ad hoc n
etwork detection. Rogue AP filtering and ad hoc network
detection ensure that unknown APs and networks are no t g ive n a cce ss to any part of the
secured wireless and wired LAN.
• Access control
. MAC address filtering can ensure that only trusted wireless st ations can
use the wireless access point to gain access to the wireless and wired LAN.
• Security profiles. Whe
n using multiple BSSIDs, you can configure unique security
settings (encryption, SSID, and so on) for each BSSID.
• Hidden mode. The
SSID is not broadcast, assuring that only clients configured with the
correct SSID can connect.
• Secure Telnet

(CLI) enables direct secure access over the serial port and easy scripting of configuration
of multiple wireless access points across an extensive network through the Ethernet
interface. A Secure Shell (SSH) client is required.

economical operation.
• PoE support. Using Powe
r over Ethernet (PoE), any 802.3af-compliant midspan or
end-span sources can supply power to the wireless access point over one or two
Ethernet ports. The wireless access point can receive all required power on one Ethernet
port from a single PoE source. However, with two Ethernet ports and two PoE sources,
power redundancy ensures that if one Ethernet port is down, the other Ethernet port can
still supply all power to the wireless access point for continued operation.
• Autosensing Ethernet c
onnection with Auto Uplink™ interface. Connects to
10/100/1000 Mbps IEEE 802.3 Ethernet networks.
• LED indicators. Power/T

• VLAN security profiles. Each security profile is automatically allocated a VLAN ID when
the security profile is modified.
802.11b/g/n and 802.11a/n Standards–Based Wireless Networking
The wireless access point provides a bridge between wired Ethernet LANs and 802.11b/g/nand 802.11a/n-compatible wireless LAN networks. It provides connectivity between wired
Ethernet networks and radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print
servers, and other devices.
In addition, the wireless access point supports the following wireless features:
• Aggregation support
• Reduced InterFrame spacing support
• 3 x 3 multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) support
• Distributed coordinated function (CSMA/CA, back-off procedure, ACK procedure,
re
transmission of unacknowledged frames)
• RTS/CTS handshake
• Beacon generation
• Packet fragmentation and reassembly
• Auto or long preamble
• Roaming among wireless access points on the same subnet
Autosensing Ethernet Connections with Auto Uplink
The wireless access point can connect to a standard Ethernet network. The LAN interface is
autosensing and capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation.
The wireless access point incorporates Auto Uplink technology. The Ethernet port
au
tomatically senses whether the Ethernet cable plugged into the port should have a
“normal” connection such as to a computer or an “uplink” connection such as to a switch or
hub. That port then configures itself correctly. This feature also eliminates any concerns
about crossover cables, as Auto Uplink accommodates either type of cable to make the right
connection.

2. Installation and Basic Configuration
This chapter describes how to install and configure the wireless access point for wireless
connectivity to your LAN. This basic configuration enables computers with 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n
and 5 GHz 802.1 1a/n wireless adapter s to connect to the Internet or access printers and files on
your LAN. In planning your wireless network, consider the level of security required. Chapter 3,
Wireless Configuration and Security, describes how to set up wireless security for your network.
This chapter includes the following sections:
• What You Need Before You Begin
• Install and Configure the Wireless Access Point
• Test Basic Wireless Connectivity
• Mount the Wireless Access Point

Wireless Equipment Placement and Range Guidelines
The range of your wireless connection can vary significantly based on the location of the
wireless access point. The latency , dat a throughput performance, and power consumption of
wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration choices.
17
ProSafe Premium 3 x 3 Dual-Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP660
Note: Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant
performance degradation or inability to connect wirelessly to the
wireless access point. For complete performance specifications, see
Appendix A, Supplemental Information.
Note: Before you position and mount the wireless access point at its
permanent position, first configure the wireless access point and test
the computers on your LAN for wireless connectivity as explained in
this chapter.
For best results, place your wireless access point according to the following general
guidelines:
cen
• Near the
ter of the area in which the wireless devices will operate.
• In an elevated location such as a
line-of-sight access (even if through walls).
• Away from sources of interference, such as computers, microwaves ovens, and 2.4 GHz
cord
less phones.
• Away from large metal surfaces or water.
• Placing an external anten
Placing an external antenna in a horizontal position provides best up-and-down coverage.
(An external antenna does not come standard with the wireless access point.)
• If you are using mu
points use different radio frequency channels to reduce interference. The recommended
channel spacing between adjacent wireless access points is five channels (for example,
use Channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11, or 1 and 11).

LAN Configuration Requirements
For the initial configuration of your wireless access point, you need to connect a computer to
the wireless access point.
Installation and Basic Configuration
18
ProSafe Premium 3 x 3 Dual-Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP660
Hardware Requirements for Computers on Your LAN
To connect to the wireless access point on your network, each computer needs to have an
802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/n wireless adapter installed. NETGEAR recommends using the
wireless access point with computers that have the NETGEAR N600 Wireless Dual Band
USB Adapter (WNDA3100) installed.
Operating Frequency (Channel) Guidelines
You do not need to change the operating frequency (channel) unless you notice interference
problems or you place the wireless access point near another wireless access point. If you do
change the operating frequency, observe the following guidelines:
• Wireless access points use a fixed channel. You can select a channel that provides the
least inte
e available.
ar
• If you use multiple wireless access points, it is bett
use different channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing
between adjacent wireless access points is 5 channels (for example, use channels 1 and
6, or 6 and 11).
• In infrastructure mode (which is the default mode for the wireless access point), wireless
st
ations normally scan all channels, looking for a wireless access point. If more than one
wireless access point can be used, the one with the strongest signal is used. This is
possible only if the wireless access points use the same SSID.

Requirements for Entering IP Addresses
IPv4
The fourth octet of an IP address needs to be between 0 and 255 (both inclusive). This
requirement applies to any IP address that you enter on a screen of the web management
interface.
IPv6
IPv6 addresses are denoted by eight groups of hexadecimal quartets that are separated by
colons. Any four-digit group of zeroes within an IPv6 address can b e reduced to a single zero
or altogether omitted.
