2-5. Use of Radio Waves

Notes on Usage

Do not use BR-300AN near the following devices or places.

- Microwave, scientic instruments, pacemaker or other medical equipment, etc.

- Licensed radio station in a factory

- Small power radio station (A non-licensed radio station)

These devices may use the same band. If you use BR-300AN near these devices, the radio

waves emitted from BR-300AN may interfere with them.

A cellular phone, TV and radio use a different radio band than our products. Generally,

if they are used near BR-300AN, it will not cause any problems. However, when they

approximate BR-300AN, sound or image noise may occur.

Do not use BR-300AN near a cellular phone, TV or Radio.

If there is reinforced concrete/metal between wireless devices, they may not connect.

BR-300AN can connect through wood or glass, but may have troubles connecting through

reinforced concrete/metal.

BR-300AN complies with the certification of conformance to technical standards.

Please pay attention to the following points:

- Please do not disassemble or remodel the product. Such action is prohibited by law.

- Please do not remove the certicate label. Using the product without a label is prohibited.

2. About BR-300AN

2-6. Notes on Security

Because a wireless LAN uses electromagnetic signals instead of a network cable to

establish communication with network devices, it has the advantage of allowing devices

to connect to the network easily. However, a disadvantage of this is that within a certain

range, the electromagnetic signals can pass through barriers such as walls, and if security

countermeasures are not implemented in some way, problems such as the following may

occur.

- Communication is intercepted by a third party

- Unauthorized access to the network

- Leakage of personal information (ID and Card information)

- Spoong and the falsication of intercepted data

- System crashes and data corruption

Nowadays, wireless LAN cards or access points are equipped with security measures

that address such security problems, so that you can enable security-related settings for

wireless LAN products in order to reduce the likelihood of problems occurring.

We recommend that you make yourself fully acquainted with the possible implications

of what might happen if you use a wireless product without enabling security features,

and that you congure security-related settings and use wireless products at your own

responsibility.

3-3. Necessary Wireless Setting Information

When you congure BR-300AN using the Conguration Mode, the wireless settings need to

be congured appropriately for your environment. As the same wireless settings must be

congured for both BR-300AN and your Access Point, you need to get the necessary setting

information of your Access Point beforehand.

- The wireless setting information explained in this page is specic to your network and cannot be provided

by Silex technical support. For how to conrm each setting, please refer to the operation manual that

came with your router or contact the manufacturer.

- Depending on your Access Point, WPS may need to be enabled manually. For details, refer to the operation

manual that came with your Access Point.

- If a security feature such as MAC Address ltering is enabled on your Access Point, change the setting so

that BR-300AN can communicate with your Access Point. For details, refer to the operation manual that

came with your Access Point.

- For the IEEE802.1X authentication, refer to 5-2. IEEE802.1X Authentication.

SSID The SSID is an ID that distinguishes a wireless LAN network from others.

For wireless devices to communicate with each other on a wireless network, they must share the same

SSID. (The SSID is also referred to as "ESSID".) Depending on your Access Point, it may have several

SSIDs. If there are dierent SSIDs for a game console and computer, use the one for the computer.

Encryption

Mode

No Encryption Uses no encryption for wireless communication.

(In this case, you do not have to get any of your settings beforehand.)

WEP If WEP encryption is used, wireless communication will be encrypted using the

settings for "WEP Key 1-4" and "Key Index".

Set the same "WEP Key Size(64bit/128bit)", "WEP Key" and "Key Index" as the wireless

device you wish to connect.

WPA / WPA2 Uses PSK for network authentication.

The encryption key will be generated by communicating with the Access Point

using a Pre-Shared key. WEP key setting is not used for this mode. Set the same "Pre-

Shared key" and "Encryption Mode"(AES/AUTO) as the wireless device you wish to

connect. The Pre-Shared key is also referred to as "Network Key" or "Password".

5-4. Address Management Table

In Multi-Client Mode, up to 16 non-wireless devices can be shared over network by saving

combination of MAC address and IP Address of such devices to BR-300AN.

The combination information is saved automatically when BR-300AN started

communication with non-wireless devices, but if the address management table feature is

used, it is possible to manually add or delete the combination information.

About Address Management Table Feature

How to register combination of MAC address and IP address will differ depending on

whether the address management table feature is enabled or disabled (ON/OFF).

Following shows the detailed registration method for each case.

When Address Management Table Feature is OFF

When BR-300AN is turned on, combination of MAC address and IP address is not

registered. Such information is automatically registered when BR-300AN started

communication with the non-wireless device.

When the connected non-wireless device has been idle for a certain amount of time

(5mins), combination information of such device is deleted. After it is deleted, bridge

from wireless network will no longer continue for that device.

• When the connected non-wireless device has a sleep mode and communication from that device is lost due

to sleep mode for 5 mins, BR-300AN cuts communication from it. To avoid this problem, disable the sleep

mode on the non-wireless device or enable the address management table feature on BR-300AN.

Note

Page 92

BR-300AN User's Guide

When Address Management Table Feature is ON

When BR-300AN is turned on, information of management tables (IPv4/IPv6) is used as

combination of MAC address and IP address.

The combination information is automatically registered when BR-300AN started

communication with the non-wireless device and it is also possible to manually add or

delete the combination information. When the combination information is updated, it is

registered to the management table. Once registered, the combination information will

not be deleted automatically.

• Up to 16 sets of combination information can be registered to the management table. If 16 sets of

information have already been registered, no more devices can be bridged using BR-300AN. Please be sure

to delete unnecessary information.

Registering Address to Management Table

Following explains how to register combination of MAC address and IP address to

management tables (IPv4/IPv6).
