Now, you will see the log-in page of the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless CPE. The default

* Since the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless CPE covers “AP mode”, “Wireless Client mode”, 

“Bridge  mode”  as well as “AP Repeater mode”,  the following steps are categorized  for 

convenience reading to describe how to set each mode after successful log-in.   

 

AP Mode   

1.  Choose 

Wireless > Basic Settings

. The default is AP mode already. Here, you can set 

the parameters to optimize your application, or you can leave them as the default. Click 

Apply 

to save the parameters. 

 

 

In the example here, we only change the “Wireless Network Name (SSID)” as 

“Join_me”, and later, we will show you if AP mode works correctly. In addition, 

for better coverage of the AP, you may also use an external antenna; if so, 

remember to set the antenna setting from “Internal (8 dBi)”  to  “External 

(N-Type)” after your external antenna is successfully installed. 

 

To be reminded that you are able to choose “External (N-Type)” only when you
