Hardware description

The Wireless Base Station can be connected to the Internet using its RJ-45 To Modem port. It connects directly to your PC or to a local area network using port 1 of the Wireless Base Station.

Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type. Full-rate ADSL can provide up to 8 Mbps downstream and 640 kbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.5 Mbps downstream and 512 Kbps upstream. Cable modems can provide up to 36 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream. ISDN can provide up to 128 Kbps when using two channels. PSTN analog connections can now run up to 56 Kbps. However, you should note that the actual rate provided by specific service providers may vary dramatically from these upper limits.

Although access speed to the Internet is determined by the modem type connected to your Wireless Base Station, data passing between devices connected to your local area network can run up to 100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet ports.

The Wireless Base Station includes an LED display on the front panel for system power and port indications that simplifies installation and network troubleshooting. It also provides 4 RJ-45 LAN ports on the front panel, as well as one RJ-45 To Modem port. Full-duplex communications allow data to be sent and received simultaneously, doubling the effective throughput.

???4 RJ-45 ports for connection to a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet Local Area Network (1, 2, 3, and 4).These ports can auto-negotiate the operating speed to 10/100 Mbps, the mode to half/full duplex, and the pin signals to MDI/MDI-X (i.e., allowing these ports to be connected to any network device with straight-through cable).These ports can be connected directly to a PC or to a server equipped with an Ethernet network interface card, or to a networking device such as an Ethernet hub or switch.

???One RJ-45 port for connection to a DSL or cable modem (To Modem). This port also auto-negotiates operating speed to 10/100 Mbps, the mode to half/full duplex, and the pin signals to MDI/MDI-X.

ENGLISH 11

System Requirements

You must have an ISP that meets the following minimum requirements:

???Internet access from your local telephone company or Internet Service Provider (ISP) using a DSL modem or cable modem.

???A PC using a fixed IP address or dynamic IP address assigned via DHCP, as well as a gateway server address and DNS server address from your service provider.

???A computer equipped with a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet card, or a USB-to-Ethernet adapter.

???TCP/IP network protocol installed on each PC that needs to access the Internet.

???A Java-enabled web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or above installed on one PC at your site for configuring the Wireless Base Station.

???Note: Mac users with OS 9.0 or higher may configure the Wireless Base Station through a browser programme only.

Connect the System

The Wireless Base Station can be positioned at any convenient location in your office or home. No special wiring or cooling requirements are needed. You should, however comply with the following guidelines:

12 ENGLISH

Basic Installation Procedure

Connecting the Wireless Base Station

1.Connect the LAN: You can connect the Wireless Base Station to your PC, or to a hub or switch. Run Ethernet cable from one of the LAN ports on the front of the Wireless Base Station to your computer???s network adapter or to another network device.

You may also connect the Wireless Base Station to your PC (using a wireless client adapter) via radio signals. Position both antennas on the back of the Wireless Base Station into the desired positions. For more effective coverage, position one antenna along the vertical axis and the other antenna along the horizontal axis. (The antennas emit signals along the toroidal plane ??? and thus provide more effective coverage when positioned along different axes.)

2.Connect to the Internet: Prepare an Ethernet cable for connecting the Wireless Base Station to a cable/DSL modem or Ethernet router. Prepare a serial cable for connecting the Wireless Base Station to an ISDN TA or PSTN modem.

3.Power on: Connect the power adapter to the Wireless Base Station.

ENGLISH 13

Attach to Your Network Using Ethernet Cabling

The four Local Network ports 1, 2, 3 and 4 on the Wireless Base Station auto-negotiate the connection speed to 10 Mbps Ethernet or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, and the transmission mode to half duplex or full duplex.

Use twisted-pair cable to connect any of the four Local Network ports 1, 2, 3, and 4 on the Wireless Base Station to an Ethernet adapter on your PC. Otherwise, you can cascade any of the Local Network ports 1, 2, 3, and 4 on the Wireless Base Station to an Ethernet hub or switch, and then connect your PC or other network equipment to the hub or switch. When inserting an RJ-45 plug, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated.

Warning:Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port.This may damage the Wireless Base Station. Instead, use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.

14 ENGLISH

Attach to Your Network Using Radio Signals

Install a wireless network adapter in each computer that will be connected to the Internet or your local network via radio signals. Philips currently offers several wireless network cards, including the Philips Wireless USB Adapter and the Philips Wireless Notebook Adapter.

Rotate both antennas on the back of the Wireless Base Station to the desired position. For more effective coverage, position antennas along different axes; for example around 45 to 90 degrees apart.Try to place the Wireless Base Station in a position that is located in the center of your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance. Ensure that the Wireless Base Station???s location provides optimal reception throughout your home or office.

Computers equipped with a wireless adapter can communicate with each other as an independent wireless Local Network by configuring each computer to the same radio channel. However, the Wireless Base Station can provide access to your wired/wireless Local Network or to the Internet for all wireless workstations. Each wireless PC in this network infrastructure can talk to any computer in the wireless group via a radio link, or access other computers or network resources in the wired Local Network infrastructure or over the Internet via the Wireless Base Station.

The wireless infrastructure configuration not only extends the accessibility of wireless PCs to the wired Local Network, but also increases the effective wireless transmission range for wireless PCs by retransmitting incoming radio signals through the Wireless Base Station.

16 ENGLISH

Connecting the Power Adapter

Plug the power adapter into the power socket on the Wireless Base Station, and the other end into a power outlet. Check the indicator marked ???PWR??? on the front panel to be sure it is on. If the power indicator does not light, refer to ???Troubleshooting???.

ENGLISH 43

Network Address Translation (NAT)

From this section you can configure the Address Mapping,Virtual Server, and Special Application features that provide control over the port openings in the Wireless Base Station???s firewall.This section can be used to support several Internet based applications such as VPN

Address Mapping

Allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users. Enter the Public IP address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter a range of internal IPs that will share the global IP.

44 ENGLISH

Virtual Server

If you configure the Wireless Base Station as a virtual server, remote users accessing services such as web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the Wireless Base Station redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address).

For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the Private IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2 on port 80.Therefore, by just entering the IP Address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at the local address to which you redirect them.

The more common TCP service ports include: HTTP: 80, FTP: 21,Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110

ENGLISH 45

Special Applications

Some applications, such as Internet gaming, videoconferencing, Internet telephony and others, require multiple connections.These applications cannot work with Network Address Translation (NAT) enabled. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, use the following screen to specify the additional public ports to be opened for each application.

Specify the public port number normally associated with an application in the Trigger Port field. Set the protocol type to TCP or UDP, then enter the ports that the application requires.

Special application connections can also be achieved by selecting the application type and item number in the Popular applications field, and clicking the Copy to button to easily specify the port numbers.Then set the protocol type to TCP or UDP.

For a full list of ports and the services that run on them, see

www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers.

If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the firewall, then you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access. Enter the IP address of a DMZ host to this screen. Adding a client to the DMZ may expose your local network to a variety of security risks, so only use this option as a last resort.

DDNS (Dynamic DNS - Settings)

Domain Name is a series of alphanumeric strings separated by periods that maps to the address of a network connection and identifies the owner of the address.

Dynamic DNS provides users on the Internet with a method to tie their domain name to a computer or server. DDNS allows your domain name to follow your IP address automatically by having your DNS records changed when your IP address changes.

The Server Configuration section automatically opens the TCP port options checked in the Virtual Server section. Simply enter in the IP Address of your server, such as a web server, and then click on the port option HTTP Port 80 so users can access your web server from the Internet connection.

This DNS feature is powered by a DDNS service provider. With a DDNS connection you can host your own web site, email server, FTP site, and more at your own location even if you have a dynamic IP address. (Default: Disable)
