Chapter 4: Basic Settings

Basic Settings

Device Name: Specify the device name, which is composed of no more than 15 characters with (0-9), (A-Z), (a-z), or (-).

Network Mode: Specify the network mode, including Bridge and Router. It is easy to configure parameters in Bridge Mode; however, users must pay extra attention to the way they configure the device when it is set to Router Mode. For details, please refer to “TCP/IP Settings” below.

Ethernet Data Rate: Specify the transmission rate of data for Ethernet. The default is “Auto.”

Country Region: Available specific channels and/or operational frequency bands depend on the country where the extender is used.

Spanning Tree: Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a link management protocol for AP that provides path redundancy while preventing loops in a network. STP allows only one active path at a time between the access points, but establishes the redundant link as a backup if the initial link fails.

STP Forward Delay: STP Forward Delay is the time spent in detecting and learning network tree topology state before entering the forward state. The default time value is 1 sec.

GPS Coordinate Settings: The GPS Coordinate Setting marks the latitude and longitude of the extender. Enter the coordinates and click the “Apply” button.

TCP/IP Settings

Open “TCP/IP Settings” in “System” as shown in Figure 4-4 to configure the parameters for the LAN that connects to the extender’s LAN port. In this page, users may change the settings for IP Address, Subnet Mask, and DHCP Server.

Figure 4-4. TCP/IP settings (Bridge).

Obtain IP Address Automatically: If a DHCP server exists in your network, you can check this option. This enables the Wireless P-T-P Ethernet Extender to obtain IP settings automatically from that DHCP server.
