Initial Setup

by finding a good place to set up your router/access point. Some things to consider: Youll need to be able to plug your internet connection into it, so it should go within reach of the LAN cable from your DSL or Cable modem. Youll also want a power outlet nearby. Keep the access point as central in your work area as possible. Signal strength and speed fall off with distance. Higher is often better. For instance, set it up on the top shelf of a bookcase rather than the bottom one, if possible. Do you need a password or other information to log in to your internet connection? Many DSL connections require information like global IP address, subnet mask, default gateway address, DNS server address, or PPPoE parameters in order to connect. Cable modems usually dont require extra information. If you have a DSL internet connection, make sure that you have any necessary information handy before you continue. Your Internet Service Provider can give you this information if you dont know it.
Placing Your AirStation Your AirStation may be placed horizontally, or vertically with its stand attached. Without the stand, you can even mount it on the wall.
For wall mounting, screw two of the included wall-mounting screws into the wall as shown below. With the detachable base removed, slots on the back of the AirStation will fit over a pair of screws in this configuration.

Router switch should be set to Auto for normal use.

Cable or DSL Modem

Automatic Installation
The AirNavigator CD can install your AirStation for you automatically. To use the automatic installation program, insert your AirNavigator CD into your computer and follow the onscreen directions.
The wizard will guide you through installing your AirStation.
Manual Installation: Connections
To install the AirStation manually, 1. Power down the Cable or DSL modem and the computer which will be used to configure the AirStation router. 2. Plug the Cable or DSL modems Ethernet cable into the AirStations WAN port. Initially, you may need to unplug this cable from your computer, hub or other router. 3. Plug the provided Ethernet cable into one of the four LAN ports on the AirStation and plug the other end into your computers Ethernet adapter (NIC). 4. Important: turn everything on in the correct order!! Power on your cable or DSL modem and wait one full minute, then power on the AirStation and wait one full minute, and finally power on the computer which will be used to configure the AirStation.

Manual Installation: Log in to the Configuration Tool Launch a web browser on the computer that youre
using to configure the AirStation. Enter 192.168.11.1 into the URL field. Naturally, if you change your AirStations LAN-side IP address, youll have to enter the new address instead.*
A window will open, prompting you to enter a User ID and Password. Enter root as the User name and leave the password field blank.
*In AP mode (mode switch Off), the default IP address is 192.168.11.100.
Detecting Your Broadband Connection
Your AirStations SmartRouter technology will determine the type of internet
connection you have automatically, and ask you for any needed information. If your ISP assigns IPs automatically (most cable providers do), their DHCP server will give your router an IP address. If additional login information is required to connect to the internet, the wizard will ask for it. Enter any required login information if asked. Contact your DSL provider for any missing login information.
Congratulations! You are now connected to the internet. Open a familiar web page to make sure everything is working correctly.
Connecting Wireless Clients to the Access Point
To connect wireless devices to the AirStation, you may either enter the SSID and encryption key manually, or you can use AOSS or WPS. Consult your wireless clients manuals for instructions on configuring them manually. You can get SSID and encryption information from the AirStations Wireless Config section.

Web Configuration Tool

The Setup page is the opening screen of the Web Configuration Tool. From here, you can change your wireless SSID and channel, and choose your encryption type under Basic Settings. The Wireless Config section also shows your SSID and encryption settings. You can also update your AirStations firmware and reset your AirStation to factory settings. As you explore the configuration tool, youll see that context sensitive help is available on the right side of each page.

Navigating the Menus

The menus in the Configuration Tool let you change your AirStations settings. To navigate settings, choose a category at the top of the page and then a submenu below. Settings will appear on the left, help files on the right. This example shows the LAN Configuration category with the Route submenu item selected. Category Tabs Individual Settings Submenus

Help and Instructions

Initialize/Reboot
The Initialize/Restart page can be reached by choosing the Admin Config category tab and then clicking on the Initialize/Restart submenu. Click Restart Now from this page to restart your AirStation. Click Initialize Now to restore your AirStation to factory defaults and restart it.
You may also initialize your AirStation by holding down the Reset button on the bottom for 3 seconds with a straightened-out paper-clip or similar object.
You can get to this page by selecting the Wireless Config category and choosing the AOSS submenu. The blue AOSS button at the top left of the page has the same function as the physical AOSS button on the top of the router: it initiates the AOSS process. If all your clients support AOSS, its very simple to set them up. Press the AOSS button on the router, or the one on this page, and then push the AOSS button on the client device. Each client device will have to be set up separately. Wait for each AOSS process to finish before starting the next one. You can also activate AOSS by pushing the button on your AirStation. Consult your client devices documentation for the location of its AOSS button. If youve used AOSS to configure some wireless clients, and now want to add other wireless clients that dont support AOSS to your network, this screen will give you the information you need to connect them manually.
AOSS (AirStation One-Touch Secure System) is a simple system for configuring your wireless network securely. If your router and your client device are installed and both support AOSS, then making a secure wireless connection between them is very easy. Push the AOSS button on the front of your router and hold it in for a few seconds. The AOSS light will begin to flash amber. You now have two minutes to push the AOSS button on your client device and finish the connection. An AOSS compatible standalone client device will probably have a little red button labeled AOSS on it. Push the button! About 15 seconds later, youll have a secure network connection. If your client device is a PC card, CardBus, or PCI adaptor, the AOSS button will probably be in its Client Manager Software. Check your client devices user manual for instructions on where to push or click the AOSS button. After youve pressed both buttons, it will take about 15 seconds for the connection to complete. When its finished, the AOSS light will glow a solid amber. You now have a secure network connection!

Encryption and Security

The AirStation supports many types of security and encryption. During your initial setup, you had the opportunity to enter a 13 digit encryption key. If you did, then three SSIDs were set up, and you can now connect to any of those SSIDs using that encryption key.
To configure an SSID and encryption key manually, navigate to Wireless Config/Basic.
Many kinds of encryption are available. WEP works with almost everything. WPA2-PSK is much more secure. Choose the strongest method of encryption that works with all of your wireless devices. If you must use WEP, it is available under SSID3. Check Use to enable WEP. Enter a pre-shared key (password) for this connection. Passwords should have 8-64 alphanumeric characters. Write down your password and put it in a safe place. You will not be able to connect wireless devices to your network without this password.
Connecting your Wireless Clients
Each of your wireless clients will need your password to connect to the network. Click on the wireless icon in your computers systray, or this message if it pops up.
Any wireless networks available in the area will be listed as available. Click on your wireless network SSID so that it turns blue and the click on Connect at the bottom right.
Enter your network key (password) twice and click Connect.
Repeat for each Windows computer that connects to your network wirelessly.
Other wireless devices may have different configuration requirements. Consult their documentation for instructions on how to enter your network key and connect them to your wireless network.
Connecting to a Preexisting Network
To add an AirStation to a network without changing the existing LAN configuration, proceed as follows: 1. Set the AirStation to AP mode by moving the switch from AUTO to OFF. 2. Connect one of the AirStations LAN ports to an existing router or switch on your network. 3. Temporarily change your computers IP address to an unused address on the 192.168.11.x subnet, with subnet mask 255.255.255.0. 4. Type 192.168.11.100 into a browser window to open the AirStations Configuration Tool. 5. In LAN Config, configure the following settings: IP Address = [192.168.1.137] (Specify an unused network address from the existing LAN.) Subnet Mask=[255.255.255.0] (Use the same Subnet Mask as the existing LAN.) 6. Restore your PCs IP address settings to their original values. Note: While the mode switch is in the OFF position, the AirStations WAN port may also be used as a fifth LAN port.

Connecting USB Devices
