  • Page 5: Chapter 1. Introduction

    The OW-1000A is fully interoperable with IEEE 802.11b/g compliant Outdoor Wireless Last-mile product. The OW-1000A operates in AP mode or remote bridge mode, and connects to OW-1000A AP/CB to construct point-to-point as well as point-to-multipoint topologies, for maximum flexibility in configuring building-to-building networks and WISP functions.

  • Page 6: System Requirements

    This works great in areas where you may not have power , like house roof. This also allows you to place the OW-1000A unit closer to the antenna, to make installation easier more thus reducing signal loss over antenna cabling.

  • Page 7: Installation And Basic Configuration

    Chapter 2. Installation and Basic Configuration This chapter describes the procedures of installing the OW-1000A. Before You Start After unpacking the system, make sure the following items are present and in good condition. Refer to below pictures for product image.

    Before configuring OW-1000A, the user needs to know the IP Address assigned to the unit. When shipped from the factory, the IP Address 192.168.1.1 was assigned to the OW-1000A by default. To start a web connection, use http://192.168.1.1 Web Access Procedures Once you identify the IP Address assigned to OW-1000A, use web browser to configure OW-1000A through the HTTP Interface.

    2.4.5 Set Wireless Encryption for Wireless Interface The OW-1000A supports 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption. For 64-bit WEP encryption, an encryption key is 10 hexadecimal characters (0-9 and A-F) or 5 ASCII characters. For 128-bit WEP encryption, an encryption key is 26 hexadecimal characters or 13 ASCII characters.

    Wireless Client Router or Bridge to a central access point like the OW-1000A AP see Figure 3-1 below. Figure 3-1 The OW-1000A CB performs in either router or bridge mode. In a Point-to-Multipoint topology, all communication between network systems is done through a centralized agent. Among the OW-1000A Outdoor Wireless Bridge products, the centralized agent is Central Bridge (OW-1000A AP) and the individual network notes may be Bridge (OW-1000A CB ).
