User’s Manual

Ver. [E.1.1]
(1)
The “AP Name” is for naming the DosaLink – 540. It can be any name the user
chooses to manage the AP.
(2)
The “Operation Mode” is for defining the application of DosaLink – 540.
Select “AP” for using DosaLink – 540 as the Access Point.
If the DosaLink – 540 is used for the Wireless Bridge such as the Point-to-Point
(PtP) and Point-to-MultiPoint (PMP), then select either “Wireless Bridge (Master)”
or “Wireless Bridge (Slave)”. If it is connected to the Internet or upper layer
network, then select “Wireless Bridge (Master)”. If it is connected to the wireless
master bridge for relaying the network, then select “Wireless Bridge (Slave)”.
In the case of Wireless Bridge, the “Using WDS” should be enabled and the MAC
Addresses of DosaLink – 540 to be connected should be registered in the Menu
of “WDS”. Therefore, the client adapters can not be connected to the DosaLink –
540 that is set to “Wireless Bridge”.
(3)
The “Country Code” can not be modified from what is set in the DosaLink – 540.
Frequencies for each country are different.
(4)
The “SSID” is an abbreviation for Service Set Identifier. It is a 32 byte character
unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN. The “SSID”
between the DosaLink – 540 and the user’s PC should be the same.
It should use the alphabet or the number. In case of the alphabet, it should be
distinguished between the lower and upper case.
(5)
IEEE 802.11 Standards are selected in this menu – “Wireless Mode Selection”. For
instance, if “802.11g only” is selected, then its users only connect. In case of
selecting “802.11b+g mixed”, since the users of 802.11b are able to connect, it may
cause a slow transmission speed for the users of 802.11g. Also, if “802.11a only” is
selected, then its users only connect.
(6)
The “Channel Select” menu is for channel selection methods of the DosaLink – 540.
The DosaLink – 540 supports the selection of either “Manual” or “Auto” for the
method of channel selection.
When “Manual” is selected, the channel in “Channel Number” is set. When “Auto”
is selected, the channel that has good signal strength and receiving sensitivity is
selected automatically from all possible channels. In the case of selecting “Auto”
of 802.11a standard, if the chosen channel in “Channel Number” is the one of
channels of 802.11a, then it will be selected automatically among the possible
channels of 802.11a.
(7)
The “Channel Number” menu is only available when the “Channel Select” is set to
“Manual”.
Channel 6 is the Factory Default value.
(8)
The WEP can be selected in the “WEP” menu.
If the WEP, an encryption to protect the data over the wireless area, is selected
“Enable”, then the user’s PC to connect to the DosaLink – 540 should also be set
with the same WEP information as in “Key length”, “Authentication Type” and
“KEY”(64bit, HEX or Passphrase).
