CHAPTER 1
Introduction
1.1 Overview
This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the NWA1300-NJ.
The NWA1300-NJ is an in-the-wall IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless access point that
supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) to eliminate the need for power sockets. The
compact NWA1300-NJ can fit in a standard size wall outlet box, which allows you
to hide it in the wall or wallboard with the wall jack faceplate.
The NWA1300-NJ extends the range of your existing wired network without
additional wiring, providing easy network access to mobile users. You can set up a
wireless network with other IEEE 802.11b/g/n compatible devices.
In the following example, you connect a PoE switch to a broadband router/
modem. You then use the swicth to provide power and Internet access to three
NWA1300-NJs in different rooms via Ethernet cables.
NWA1300-NJ User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Introduction
1.2 Applications
Your can have the following networks on the NWA1300-NJ:
• Wired. Y ou can connect network d evices via the Ethernet port of the NWA1300NJ so that they can communicate with each other and access the Internet.
• Wireless. Wireless clients can connect to the NWA1300-NJ to access network
resources and the Internet.

1.3 Ways to Manage the NWA1300-NJ
Use any of the following methods to manage the NWA1300-NJ.
• ENC. You can use a computer with the Enterprise Network Center (ENC)
installed to provision and manage multiple NWA1300-NJs at t he same time. The
ENC supports DHCP option 224 which allows the ENC to discover and provision
the NWA1300-NJ automatically.
WAN
• Web Configur ator. This is for everyday management of the NWA1300-NJ using a
(supported) web browser. By default, the NWA1300-NJ is in DHCP client mode.
You need to connect t he NWA1300-NJ to a DHCP server to obtain an IP address
first before accessing the web configurator.
• SNMP. The device can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See the SNMP
chapter in this User’s Guide.
1.4 Good Habits for Managing the NWA1300-NJ
Do the following things regularly to make the NWA1300-NJ more secure and to
manage the NWA1300-NJ more effectivel y.
18
NWA1300-NJ User’s Guide
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists
of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it).
Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes
unstable or even crashes. If you forget y our password, you will hav e to reset the
NWA1300-NJ to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier
configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the NWA1300-NJ.
You could simply restore your last configuration.
1.5 Resetting the NWA1300-NJ
If you forget your password or IP address, or you cannot access the Web
Configurator, you will need to use the reset button on the front panel of the
NWA1300-NJ to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you
will lose all configurations that you had previously saved, the password will be
reset to “1234” and the configured IP address will be reset to a dynamically
assigned IP address from a DHCP server (if available).

The Web Configurator
2.1 Overview
This chapter describes how to access the NWA1300-NJ Web Configurator and
provides an overview of its screens.
The Web Configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy
setup and management of the NWA1300-NJ via Internet browser. Use Internet
Explorer 6.0 and later or Netscape Navigator 7.0 and later versions. The
recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
In order to use the Web Configurator you need to allow:
• Web brows er pop-up windows from your device. W eb pop-up blocki ng is enabled
by default in Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
• JavaScripts (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
Refer to the Troubleshooting chapter to see how to make sure these functions are
allowed in Internet Explorer.
2.2 Accessing the Web Configurator
1 Make sure your NWA1300-NJ hardware is properly connected and prepare your
computer or computer network to connect to the NWA1300-NJ (refer to the Quick
Start Guide).
2 The NWA1300-NJ’s Ethernet port is set to DHCP cl ient mode by default. Mak e sure
the NWA1300-NJ is connected to a DHCP server. Check your DHCP server to know
the IP address assigned to the NWA1300-NJ by the DHCP server.
3 Launch your web browser.
4 Type the NWA1300-NJ’s IP address as the website address.

CHAPTER 3
Tutorials
3.1 Overview
This chapter describes how to set up a wireless network.
Note: The tutorials featured in this chapter require a basic understanding of
connecting to and using the Web Configurator on your NWA1300-NJ. For
details, see the included Quick Start Guide. For field descriptions of individual
screens, see the related technical reference in this User's Guide.
3.2 Wireless Network Setup
The NWA1300-NJ is connected to a broadband modem with Internet access.
Thomas wants to set up a wireless network so that the users can use their
notebooks or computers to wirelessly access the Internet through the NWA1300NJ. In this wireless network, the NWA1300-NJ serves as an access point (AP), and
the notebook with a wireless network card or USB/PCI adapter is the wireless
client. The wireless client can access the Internet through the AP.
Thomas has to configure the wireless network settings on the NWA1300-NJ. Then
users can set up a wireless network using manual configuration (Section 3.2.2 on
page 28).
