2.2 Wireless Ethernet

Introduction The SpeedTouch™ 608 WL/620Wi-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.
Chapter 2
Wireless client
requirements
All wireless client adapters compliant to 802.11g and/or 802.11b, will be able to 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.

2.2.1 Wireless Basics

Introduction In this section some key wireless concepts are explained.
802.11b/g 802.11b is an IEEE standard, operating at 2,4 GHz at a speed of up to 11 Mb/s.
802.11g, a newer IEEE standard also operating at 2,4 GHz, gives you up to 54 Mb/s speed, more security and better performance.
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™.
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 start-up.
You can choose to set the channels automatically or manually.
The different channels are overlapping. To avoid interference with another access point, make sure that the separation (in terms of frequency) is as high as possible. It’s 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
22
Israel 5 to 8
Japan 1 to 14
Jordan 10 to 13
Thailand 1 to 14
USA 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 will die down the radio signal strength and thus affect the connection.

2.2.5 Extending the Range of Your Wireless Network

WDS The SpeedTouch™ features 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.
The Wireless Distribution System (WDS) enables data packets to pass from one wireless access point to another, just 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 WDS-enabled devices communicating via WDS:
WDS Link
SpeedTouch™180 SpeedTouch™620
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 Check on following:
Your wireless repeater must be WDS enabled.
Both your SpeedTouch™ and your wireless repeater must 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.
WPA encryption is not supported when using WDS.
