The ESTeem 195Ed is a very versatile wireless Ethernet networking device. To keep the manual usably short, many of the application descriptions and programming details assume the user has a good working knowledge of the following network concepts: •...
Access Point Router Mode. In this mode the ESTeem Model 195Ed will function as a router between the wired Ethernet network, connect to the 195Ed’s Ethernet port, and the wireless network of other 195Ed’s in repeater peer mode. As in all standard router configurations, the wireless and wired Ethernet networks will need to be on separate subnets.
(DSL, T1, etc.) and you want the wireless clients to access the information through the Model 195Ed (Figure 3). This mode should also be used for attaching the Model 195Ed to a network where few IP addresses are available or a firewall for the wireless clients is required.
This mode would be used where multiple Ethernet devices will be connected to a single Model 195Ed in a mobile application and the IP addresses for each device will be hidden from the LAN connected to the Access Point.

QUICK START GUIDE A printed copy of the Model 195Ed Quick Start Guide was provided in the documentation package that arrived with your new ESTeem 195Ed. This guide is an abbreviated step-by-step procedure on configuration of the 195Ed for most Ethernet bridging and Access Point applications.
Attach the programming Cable to the RS-232 Programming Port and the Patch Cable between the Power Supply and Ethernet port. • One word of caution, always attach an antenna to Port A (Figure 2) on the Model 195Ed before power up. Antenna Port A (Single Receive Antenna)

The following steps should be completed before any modifications are made to the IP address in the ESTeem Model 195Ed: Connect the antenna to the antenna connector on the ESTeem Model 195Ed (Figure 3). For a single antenna use Antenna Port A and connect both if using dual antennas.

STARTING OUT Complete the following System Configuration Table. The Model 195Ed will link to other Model 195Ed’s on the network via the WLAN Media Access Control (MAC) address found on the bottom of the case. This MAC address is six hexadecimal digits separated by colons and is configured at the factory.
