NOTE: Only those antennas that are of the same type and with lesser gain than those that are certified with this device may be used legally by the installer.
  • Page 6: Quick Start Guides

    Quick Start Guides The purpose of these guides is to provide sample configurations for some of the most common applications of the DLB21XX units. Access Point (Bridged) This is how the radio is configured by default. This configuration bridges the ethernet and wireless interfaces and disables all NAT/firewall functions.
  • Page 7: Access Point (Router)

    The second thing you will do is configure the Wireless Basic Settings. Make sure the ‘Disable Wireless LAN Interface’ checkbox is not checked. The Mode needs to be set to ‘AP’. The SSID can also be changed at this point, if desired. NOTE: For ease of management, you may also want to change the LAN IP address to reside on the subnet your other PCs will be on.
  • Page 8 To enable the Access Point with routing, first change the Operation Mode to ‘Router’. For ease of management, you may also want to change the LAN IP address to reside on the subnet your other PCs will be on when connected to the WLAN.
  • Page 9: Access Point Client Mode

    The WAN Interface will then need to be configured. In this example, the WAN interface will obtain its IP address by DHCP. In the Wireless Basic Settings the Mode needs to be set to ‘AP’, and the Disable Wireless LAN Interface checkbox needs to be unchecked.

    Under TCP/IP > WAN Interface, the WAN connection needs to be set up. This specifies how the AP client will communicate with the network behind the remote access point. In this case DHCP client is used, and the WAN IP address is obtained from the remote access point.
  • Page 16 First under Operation Mode, make sure both units are in ‘Bridge’ mode. Then under Wireless > Basic Settings, set the wireless radio on both units to ‘WDS’ mode. Radio A and Radio B both need to use the same Channel Number in order for WDS to connect; in this case, the Channel Number is 1.
  • Page 17 Since the two units will be bridged together, the LAN IP addresses will need to be different or one of the units will not be accessible by IP address. The next step is to add the MAC address of the wireless interface in the WDS bridge in Radio B in the WDS section in Radio NOTE: The MAC address of the wireless interface in Radio B can be found on the Status page under Management in the configuration section of the Wireless interface you are using for the WDS bridge.
  • Page 18: Configuring Universal Repeater

    In Wireless > WDS Settings, make sure “Enable WDS” is checked. Enter the MAC address from Radio B into the WDS Settings for Radio A (no colons or spaces). Click “Apply Changes” The MAC address will then show up in the Current WDS AP List. NOTE: This will need to be done on both radios.
