2.3 Wireless Ethernet

Introduction The SpeedTouch™706 WL Wi-Fi® certified IEEE 802.11g compliant wireless access

point allows multiple computers to connect wirelessly to your local network over the SpeedTouch™ Wireless LAN environment. The SpeedTouch™ is backward compatible with IEEE 802.11b, which means 802.11b and 802.11g devices can coexist in the same wireless network.

The Wireless Distribution System (WDS) on your SpeedTouch™ allows you to extend the range of your wireless network. To be able to use WDS, you will need to introduce an additional WDS-enabled access point into your wireless network.

To be able to connect the computers, make sure that a wireless client adapter (WLAN client) is installed on each computer you want to connect via the WLAN.

Wireless client

requirements

All wireless client adapters compliant to 802.11g and/or 802.11b can communicate with the SpeedTouch™ and other members of the SpeedTouch™ (W)LAN environment. However, be aware that only 802.11g compliant wireless clients are able to gain full profit of the 54 Mb/s (Max) bandwidth delivered by the SpeedTouch™.

It is highly recommended to use only wireless client adapters that are Wi-Fi™ certified to ensure smooth interoperability with the SpeedTouch™’s WLAN.

Mb/s speed, more security and better performance.

Wireless Fidelity The Wi-Fi certification ensures that your SpeedTouch™ will interoperate with any

Wi-Fi certified 802.11g and 802.11b compliant wireless device.

Access Point The SpeedTouch™ Wireless LAN Access Point (AP) behaves as a networking hub

allowing to wirelessly interconnect several devices to the local (W)LAN and to provide access to the Internet.

Network Name or SSID The WLAN's 'radio' link is a shared medium. As no physical connection exists

between the SpeedTouch™ and wireless clients, a name must be given to allow unique identification of your WLAN radio link. This is done by the Service Set ID (SSID), also referred to as Network Name. Wireless clients must be part of this SSID environment in order to be able to communicate with other clients on the (W)LAN including the SpeedTouch™.

Chapter 2

Radio channels The 802.11g standard allows several WLAN networks using different radio channels

to be co-located. The SpeedTouch™ supports multiple radio channels and is able to select the best radio channel at each startup.

You can choose to set the channels automatically or manually.

The different channels overlap. To avoid interference with another access point, make sure that the separation (in terms of frequency) is as high as possible. It is recommended to keep at least 3 channels between 2 different access points.

The SpeedTouch™ supports all channels allowed for wireless networking. However, depending on local regulations, the number of channels actually allowed to be used may be additionally restricted, as shown in the table below.

Regulatory Domain Allowed Radio Channels

China 1 to 13

Europe 1 to 13

Israel 5 to 8

Japan 1 to 14

Jordan 10 to 13

Thailand 1 to 14

USA / Canada 1 to 11

Local Network Setup

Antennas Direct the external antenna to allow optimization of the wireless link. If for example

the antenna is erect, wireless links in the horizontal plane are favoured. Please note that the antenna characteristics are influenced by the environment, that is by reflections of the radio signal against walls or ceilings. It is advisable to use the received signal strength as indicated by the wireless client manager to optimize the antenna position for the link to a given client.

Concrete walls weaken the radio signal and thus affect the connection.

Local Network Setup

Wireless Distribution

System (WDS)

The SpeedTouch™ features the Wireless Distribution System (WDS) functionality. This feature allows you to extend the range of your wireless network by introducing one or more WDS-enabled devices into your wireless network.

WDS enables data packets to pass from one wireless access point to another, as if the access points were ports on a wired Ethernet switch. WDS allows you to extend the range of your SpeedTouch™ by means of one or more wireless repeaters, like for instance a SpeedTouch™180. The following illustration depicts two WDSenabled devices communicating via WDS.

WDS Link

SpeedTouch™180 SpeedTouch™706WL

The SpeedTouch™ allows you to add up to four wireless repeaters.

Repeaters extend the coverage area of your wireless LAN. However, bear in mind that throughput is reduced for wireless clients that are connected through a repeater.

Preconditions Make sure that:

 Your wireless repeater is be WDS enabled.

 Both your SpeedTouch™ and your wireless repeater use:

 The same WEP key if WEP is enabled.

 The same fixed channel.

The SpeedTouch™ and your wireless repeater do not necessarily need to use the same SSID. Using different SSIDs allows you to force your wireless clients to use either the access point of the SpeedTouch™ or the one of your wireless repeater.

5.5.13 Firewall

About the firewall The firewall allows you to secure traffic from and to the SpeedTouch™. There are

different security levels, depending on the degree of security you need.

Overview The Overview page summarizes the overall security policy configured on your

SpeedTouch™.

Configure On the Configure page you can select the security level of the SpeedTouch™.

Security Levels Select one of following security levels:

 BlockAll:

All traffic from and to the Internet is blocked. Game and Application Sharing is not allowed by the firewall.

Although BlockAll should block all connections, some mandatory types of traffic such as DNS will still be relayed between LAN and WAN via the SpeedTouch™.

 Standard:

All outgoing connections are allowed. All incoming connections are blocked, except for inbound connections assigned to a local host via Game and Application Sharing.

 Disabled:

All in- and outgoing traffic is allowed to pass through your SpeedTouch™, including Game and Application Sharing. This is the default firewall level.

The firewall levels only have impact on the forward hook. This means that the handling of traffic from and to the Web pages of the SpeedTouch™ is independent of the selected firewall level.

Protocol checks will be performed on all accepted connections, irrespective of the chosen level. You can only disable protocol checks via the CLI.
