Enter the username (Default: admin) and password (Default: password) respectively and click “Login” to login the main page of JetWave 2450. You can see the basic information of JetWave 2450. This management interface provides five main options, which are Status, System, Wireless, Management and Tools.
Basic System Settings For users who use the JetWave 2450 for the first time, it is recommended that you begin configuration from “Basic Settings” in “System” shown below: Figure 14 Basic System Settings Basic Settings Ethernet DataRate: Adjust the data rate of Ethernet connection, including 10/100M full-duplex, half-duplex and Auto.
IP Settings (Bridge) This is available only under Bridge network mode. Open “IP Settings (Bridge)” in “System” as below to configure the parameters for LAN which connects to the LAN port of JetWave 2450. In this page, users may change the settings for IP Address, Subnet Mask, and DHCP Server. Figure 15 IP Settings (Bridge) Obtain IP Address Automatically: If a DHCP server exists in your network, you can check this option, thus the JetWave 2450 is able to obtain IP settings automatically from that DHCP server.
Page 28
Figure 16 IP Settings (Router) WAN Settings: Specify the Internet access method to Static IP, DHCP or PPPOE. Users must enter WAN IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway settings provided by your ISPs. LAN Settings: When DHCP Server is disabled, users can specify IP address and subnet mask for JetWave 2450 manually.
RADIUS Settings RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is a server for remote user authentication and accounting; playing a central role in the network in providing the capabilities of authenticating, authorizing, accounting, auditing, alarming and etc. It allows an organization to maintain user profiles in a central database that all remote servers can share.
Time Settings Compliant with NTP, the JetWave 2450 is capable of keeping its time in complete accord with the Internet time. Make configuration in “Time Settings” from “System”. To use this feature, check “Enable NTP Client Update” in advance. Figure 18 Time Settings Time Zone Select Select the time zone from the dropdown list.

Source IP Filtering: The source IP filtering gives users the ability to restrict certain types of data packets from your local network to Internet through JetWave 2450. Use of such filters can be helpful in securing or restricting your local network. Figure 19 Source IP Filtering Destination IP Filtering: The destination IP filtering gives you the ability to restrict the computers in LAN from accessing certain websites in WAN according to specified IP addresses.
Page 32
Source Port Filtering: The source port filtering enable you to restrict certain ports of data packets from your local network to Internet through JetWave 2450. Use of such filters can be helpful in securing or restricting your local network. Figure 21 Source Port Filtering Destination Port Filtering: The destination port filtering enables you to restrict certain ports of data packets from your local network to Internet through JetWave 2450.
Page 33
Port Forwarding: The port forwarding allows you to automatically redirect common network services to a specific machine behind the NAT firewall. These settings are only necessary if you wish to host some sort of server like a web server or mail server on the private local network behind JetWave 2450’s NAT firewall.
Basic Wireless Settings Open “Basic Settings” in “Wireless” as below to make basic wireless configuration. Figure 25 Basic Wireless Settings Disable Wireless LAN Interface Check this option to disable WLAN interface, then the wireless module of JetWave 2450 will stop working and no wireless device can connect to it.
Page 35
Wireless Network Name (SSID) This wireless network name is shared among all associated devices in your wireless network. Keep it identical on all those devices. Note that the SSID is case-sensitive and can not exceed 32 characters. Broadcast SSID Under AP mode, hiding network name is necessary when you are in a wireless environment that may have potential risk.
Data Rate Usually “Auto” is preferred. Under this rate, the JetWave 2450 will automatically select the highest available rate to transmit. In some cases, however, like where there is no great demand for speed, you can have a relatively-low transmit rate for compromise of a long distance. Channel Mode Two levels are available: 20MHz and 40MHz.
Page 38
Short GI Under 802.11n mode, enable it to obtain better data rate if there is no negative compatibility issue. RTS Threshold The JetWave 2450 sends RTS (Request to Send) frames to certain receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, that STA responds with a CTS (Clear to Send) frame to acknowledge the right to start transmission.
Page 39
Link Integration Available under AP/Bridge/AP repeater mode, it monitors the connection on the Ethernet port by checking “Enabled”. It can inform the associating wireless clients as soon as the disconnection occurs. Max. Station Num Available only under AP mode, it defines the maximum amount of wireless clients allowed to be connected.
Wireless Security Settings To prevent unauthorized radios from accessing data transmitting over the connectivity, the JetWave 2450 provides you with rock solid security settings. Security Settings Open “Security Settings” in “Wireless” as below: Figure 28 Security Settings Network Authentication Open System: It allows any device to join the network without performing any security check. Shared Key: Data encryption and key are required for wireless authentication.
Page 41
WPA&WPA2 with RADIUS: It provides options of WPA (TKIP) or WPA2 (AES) for the client. If it is selected, the data encryption type must be TKIP + AES and the RADIUS server must be set. WPA-PSK: It is a simplified WPA mode with no need for specific authentication server. In this so-called WPA Pre-Shared Key, all you have to do is just pre-enter a key in each WLAN node and this is the common way to be adopted in large and middle enterprise as well as residential network.
Access Control The Access Control appoints the authority to wireless client on accessing JetWave 2450, thus a further security mechanism is provided. This function is available only under AP mode. Open “Access Control” in “Wireless” as below. Figure 29 Access Control Access Control Mode If you select “Allow Listed”, only those clients whose wireless MAC addresses are in the access control list will be able to connect to your AP.
WDS Settings Extend the range of your network without having to use cables to link the Access Points by using the Wireless Distribution System (WDS): Put simply, you can link the Access Points wirelessly. Open “WDS Settings” in “Wireless” as below: Figure 30 WDS Settings Enter the MAC address of another AP you wirelessly want to connect to into the appropriate field and click “Apply”...
