Getting to Know Your G-1000

This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the G-1000.

1.1 Introducing the G-1000

The G-1000 Access Point extends the range of your existing wired network without any additional wiring efforts, providing easy network access to mobile users.

The G-1000 incorporates the IEEE802.11g standard for high-speed wireless transmission. In line with the standard, your G-1000 is backward-compatible with IEEE802.1b-enabled devices.

Additionally, the G-1000 offers highly-secure wireless connectivity to your wired network with IEEE 802.1x, WEP data encryption and MAC address filtering.

The G-1000 is easy to install and configure. The embedded web-based configurator enables easy operation and configuration.

1.2 G-1000 Features

The following sections describe the features of the G-1000

1.2.1 Physical Features
1.2.1.1 10/100M Auto-negotiating Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Interface

This auto-negotiating feature allows the G-1000 to detect the speed of incoming transmissions and adjust appropriately without manual intervention. It allows data transfer of either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps in either half-duplex or full-duplex mode depending on your Ethernet network.

1.2.1.2 10/100M Auto-crossover Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Interface

An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable.

1.2.1.3 Reset Button

The G-1000 reset button is built into the side panel. Use this button to restore the factory default password to 1234; IP address to 192.168.1.2, subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.
