This procedure uses the first option, Basic wireless network, as an example.
Select Basic wireless network and then OK. The Quick Setup Basic wireless network page is
displayed. This page is divided into two sections: Step 1 and Step 2.
Step 1: Specify access point settings
Configure settings as described in the following sections and then select Save:

Configure the radio
Wireless mode
Select the mode that best supports the wireless client stations at your location. Supported
wireless modes are determined by the regulatory domain. Available options may include one
or more of the following:
•
802.11n (5 GHz): (Pure 802.11n) Up to 300 Mbps in the 802.11n 5 GHz frequency band.
•
802.11n/a: (Compatibility mode.) Up to 270 Mbps for 802.11n and 54 Mbps for
802.11a in the 5 GHz frequency band.
•
802.11n (2.4 GHz): (Pure 802.11n) Up to 300 Mbps in the 802.11n 2.4 GHz frequency
band.
•
802.11n/g: (Compatibility mode.) Up to 270 Mbps for 802.11n and 54 Mbps for
802.11g in the 2.4 GHz frequency band. Only use this setting when support for 802.11g
is necessary.
•
802.11n/b/g: (Compatibility mode.) Up to 270 Mbps for 802.11n, 54 Mbps for 802.11g,
and 11 Mbps for 802.11b in the 2.4 GHz frequency band. Only use this setting when
support for 802.11b is necessary.
•
802.11b: Up to 11 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz frequency band.
•
802.11b/g: Up to 11 and 54 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz frequency band.
•
802.11g: Up to 54 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz frequency band.
•
802.11a: Up to 54 Mbps in the 5 GHz frequency band.
In 802.11n (2.4) and 802.11n (5 GHz) modes, the V-M200 does not permit non-
Note:
802.11n clients to associate. Also in these modes, the V-M200 does not use
protection mechanisms (RTS/CTS or CTS-to-self) to enable legacy APs to operate on
the same frequency. This can potentially cause problems with legacy (a/b/g) APs
operating on the same channel, but provides the best throughput for the V-M200
and its 11n clients.
In 802.11n/a, 802.11n/g, 802.11n/b/g modes, the V-M200 permits both 802.11n
Note:
and legacy clients (a/b/g) to associate. The V-M200 uses protection mechanisms
(RTS/CTS or CTS-to-self) when sending 11n data to prevent disruption to legacy
(a/b/g) clients associated on the same channel.
Get an IP address
IP configuration
•
DHCP server: The V-M200 will operate as a DHCP client and automatically obtain an IP
address from a DHCP server on the network connected to the Ethernet port. If no DHCP
server is found, the IP address 192.168.1.1 is assigned to the Ethernet and wireless
ports.
