the procedures in other oper ating systems are sim ilar. First, make sure your Ethernet A dapter is working, and
refer to the Ethernet adapter manual if needed.

4.1.1 Configuring the IP Address Manually

Summary:

 Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC.

 Configure the network parameters . The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx (If the d efault IP address of the

WBS-202N/WBS-502N is 192.168.1.253, and the DSL router is 192.168.1.254, the "xxx" can be
configured to any number from 1 to 252.) and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

1 Select Use the following IP address, and then configure the IP address of the PC.
2 For example, as the default IP address of the WBS-202N/WBS-502N is 1 92.168. 1.253 and the DSL router

is 192.168.1.254, you may choose from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.252.

Appendix B: Troubleshooting

If yo u find the AP is working im properly or stop respo nding to you, please re ad this troublesho oting first before
contacting the dealer for help. Some problems can be solved by yourself within a very short time.

Scenario Solution

The AP is not responding to
me when I want to access it
by Web browser.

I can’t get connected to the
Internet.

a. Please check the connection of the power cord and the

Ethernet cable of this AP. All cords and cables should be
correctly and firmly inserted into the AP.

b. If all LEDs on this AP are off, please check the status of

power adapter, and make sure it is correctly powered.

c. You must use the same IP address section which AP

uses.

d. Are you using MAC or IP address filter? Try to connect

the AP by another computer and see if it works; if not,
please reset the AP to the factory default settings by
pressing the ‘reset’ button for over 7 seconds.

e. Use the Smart Discovery Tool to see if you can find the

AP or not.

f. If you did a firmware upgrade and this happens, contact

your dealer of purchase for help.

g. If all the solutions above don’t work, contact the dealer

for help.

a. Go to ‘Status’ -> ‘Internet Connection’ menu on the router

connected to the AP , and check Internet connection

status.
b. Please be patient, sometimes Internet is just that slow.
c. If you’ve connected a computer to Internet directly

before, try to do that again, and check if you can get

connected to Internet with your computer directly

attached to the device provided by your Internet service

provider.
d. Check PPPoE / L2TP / PPTP user ID and password

entered in the router’s settings again.
e. Call your Internet service provider and check if there’s

something wrong with their service.
f. If you just can’t connect to one or more website, but you

can still use other internet services, please check

URL/Keyword filter.
g. Try to reset the AP and try again later.
h. Reset the device provided by your Internet service

provider too.

I can’t locate my AP by my
wireless device.

File downloading is very slow
or breaks frequently.

I can’t log into the web
management interface; the
password is wrong.

The AP becomes hot

i. Try to use IP address instead of host name. If you can

use IP address to communicate with a remote server,

but can’t use host name, please check DNS setting.
a. ‘Broadcast ESSID’ set to off?
b. Both two antennas are properly secured.
c. Are you too far from your AP? Try to get closer.
d. Please remember that you have to input ESSID on your

wireless client manually, if ESSID broadcast is disabled.
a. Are you using QoS function? Try to disable it and try

again.
b. Internet is slow sometimes. Please be patient.
c. Try to reset the AP and see if it’s better after that.
d. Try to know what computers do on your local network. If

someone’s transferring big files, other people will think

Internet is really slow.
e. If this never happens before, call you Internet service

provider to know if ther e is som ethin g wron g with the ir

network.
a. Make sure y ou’re connecting to the correct IP address of

the AP!
b. Password is case-sensitive. Make sure the ‘Caps Lock’

light is not illuminated.
c. If you really forget the password, do a hard reset.
a. This is not a malfunction, if you can keep your hand on

the AP’s case.
b. If you smell something wrong or see the smoke coming

out from AP or A/C power adapter, please disconnect

the AP and power source from utility power (make sure

it’s safe before you’re doing this!), and call your dealer of

purchase for help.

Appendix C: Glossary

 802.11ac - 802.11ac is a wireless network ing standard in the 802.11 family (which is marketed under the

brand name Wi-Fi), developed in the IEEE Standards Assoc iation process, providing

high-throughput

wireless local area networks (WLANs) on the 5 GHz band.

 802.11n - 802.11n builds upon previous 802.11 standards by adding MIMO (multiple-input

multiple-outpu t). MIMO uses multiple transmitter and receiver antennas to allow for increase d data
throughput via spatia l multiplexing and i ncreased range by exploiting the spatia l diversity, perhaps
through coding schem es like Alamouti coding. The E nhanced Wireless Consortium (EWC) [3] was
formed to help accelerate the IEEE 802.11n development process and promote a technology
specification for interoperability of next-generation wireless local area networking (WLAN) products.

 802.11a

- 802.11a was an amendment to the IEEE 802.11 wireless local network specifications tha t

defined requirements for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication
system. It was originally designed to support wireless communication in the unlicensed national
information infras tructure (U-N II) bands (in the 5–6 GH z frequency r ange) as re gulated in t he United
States by the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 47, Section 15.407.

 802.11b - The 802.11b standard specifies a wire less networking at 11 Mbps using direct-sequence

spread-spectrum (DSSS) technolog y and operating i n the unlicens ed radio spectr um at 2.4GHz, and
WEP encryption for security. 802.11b networks are also referred to as Wi-Fi networks.

 802.11g - specification for wireless networking at 54 Mbps using direct-sequence spread-spectrum

(DSSS) technology, using OFDM modulation and operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum at

2.4GHz, and backward compatibility with IEEE 802.11b devices, and WEP encryption for security.

 DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) - The capability of assigning a fixed host and domain name to

a dynamic Internet IP Address.

 DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - A protocol that automatically configure the TCP/IP

parameters for the all the PC(s) that are connected to a DHCP server.

 DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) - A Demilitarized Zone allows one local host to be expos ed to the Internet

for a special-purpose service such as Internet gaming or videoconferencing.

 DNS (Domain Name System) - An Internet Service that translates the names of websites into IP

addresses.

 Domain Name - A descriptive name for an address or group of addresses on the Internet.

 DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) - A technology that allows data to be sent or received over existing

traditional phone lines.

 ISP (Internet Service Provider) - A company that provides access to the Internet.

 MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) - The size in bytes of the largest packet that can be transmitted.

 NAT (Network Address Translation) - NAT technol ogy translates IP addresses of a local are a network

to a different IP address for the Internet.

 PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) - PPPoE is a protoco l for connecting rem ote hosts to

the Internet over an always-on connection by simulating a dial-up connection.

 SSID - A Service Set Ident if ication is a thir ty-two c hara cter (m axim um) alphanum eric k ey identif ying a

wireless local area n et work. For the wireless devices in a n et wor k to communicate with each other, al l
