Extreme Networks WiRanger manual USB Cables, Compatibility

Your WiRanger will be pre-configured to operate on 802.11g Radio Channel 11. Ideally, your other 802.11g products should be configured to work on a channel that is at least 5 channels apart from the one used by the WiRanger.

For example, if the WiRanger is on channel 11 and you also have a 802.11b/g router. Then configure the router to operate on channel 6, or lower.

NOTE: If required, you can view or change the current WiRanger 802.11g Radio Channel. See Advanced Setup – Viewing and Changing the 802.11g Radio Channel on Page 9 for instructions.

NOTE: The WiRanger does not broadcast an SSID and will not be visible to a wireless network scan.

USB Cables

USB cables have two distinct connectors. The Type A connector is used to connect the cable from a USB device to the Type A port on a computer or hub. The Type B connector is used to attach the USB cable to a USB device.

Compatibility

The WiRanger complies with USB 2.0 specifications governing the design of high-speed USB devices. However, because of the data rate limitations inherent in the IEEE 802.11g radio platform, Icron Technologies Corporation does not guarantee that all USB devices are compatible with the WiRanger.

In particular, webcams that use the BULK transfer protocol are not supported. For more information on potential incompatibilities, please see the FAQ page of the Icron Technologies Corporation website:
