Use this section to set up your computer to receive an IP address or assign it a static IP address in the 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254 range with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. This is necessary to ensure that your computer can communicate with your Prestige. Skip this section if your computer's IP address is already between 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.254 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Your computer must have a network card and TCP/IP installed. TCP/IP should already be installed on computers using Windows NT/2000/XP, Macintosh OS 7 and later operating systems. Refer to the Setting Up Your Computer's IP Address appendix for other operating systems. 3.1 Windows 2000/NT/XP The following example figures use the default Windows XP GUI theme. 1. Click start (Start in Windows 2000/NT), Settings, Control Panel. 5 P-334WT 2. In the Control Panel, double-click Network Connections (Network and Dial-up Connections in Windows 2000/NT). 3.

This Quick Start Guide shows you how to use the web configurator setup wizard and bandwidth management wizard only. See your User's Guide for background information on all Prestige features and SMT configuration. Click the web configurator online help for screen-specific web help. Web Configurator SMT (System Management Terminal). Access the SMT via LAN or WAN using Telnet. 4.1 Accessing Your Prestige Via Web Configurator 1. Launch your web browser. Enter "192.168.1.1" as the web site address. Web site address. 2. The default password ("1234") is already in the password field (in non-readable format). Click Login to proceed to a screen asking you to change your password. Click Reset to revert to the default password in the password field. 9 P-334WT Default password. 3. It is highly recommended you change the default password! Enter a new password, retype it to confirm and click Apply; alternatively click Ignore to proceed to the main menu if you do not want to change the password now. If you do not change the password, the following screen appears every time you log in. Change default password. 4. You should now see the web configurator MAIN MENU screen. Click WIZARD to begin a series of screens to help you configure your Prestige for the first time. Click the BM SETUP to begin a series of screens to help you configure media bandwidth management on your Prestige. Click a link under MAIN MENU in the navigation panel to configure that Prestige feature. 10 P-334WT Click MAINTENANCE in the navigation panel to see Prestige performance statistics, upload firmware and back up, restore or upload a configuration file. Click LOGOUT when you have finished a Prestige management session. The Prestige automatically logs you out if it is left idle for five minutes; press ENTER to display the Login screen again and then log back in. This idle timeout timer is one of the many Prestige features that you may edit using the web configurator. WIZARD BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENT WIZARD Navigation panel LOGOUT 4.2 Internet Access Using the Wizard The wizard consists of a series of screens to help you configure your Prestige for wireless stations to access your wired LAN. Use the following buttons to navigate the Wizard: Back Next Click Back to return to the previous screen. Click Next to continue to the next screen. No configuration changes will be saved to the Prestige until you click Finish. 1. Click Wizard Setup in the main menu to display the first wizard screen. 11 P-334WT System Name is a unique name to identify the Prestige in an Ethernet network. Enter a descriptive name. The Domain Name entry is what is propagated to the DHCP clients on the LAN. If you leave this blank, the domain name obtained by DHCP from the ISP is used. Click Next to continue. 2. Use the second wizard screen to set up the wireless LAN. Name(SSID) is a unique name to identify the Prestige in the wireless LAN. Enter a descriptive name. The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11b/g wireless devices is called a channel. Select a channel ID that is not already in use by a neighboring device. Click None, Basic(WEP) or Extend(WPA-PSK) from the drop-down list box as the level of wireless security. Choose None to have no wireless LAN security configured. If you do not enable any wireless security on your Prestige, your network is accessible to any wireless networking device that is within range. Choose Basic(WEP) security if you want to configure WEP Encryption parameters. Choose Extend(WPA-PSK) security to configure a Pre-Shared Key. Choose this option only if your wireless clients support WPA-PSK. The third screen varies depending on which security level you select. The wireless stations and Prestige must use the same SSID, channel ID and WPAPSK (if WPA-PSK is enabled), WEP encryption key (if WEP is enabled) for wireless communication. 3. Choose Basic(WEP) security in the previous screen to setup WEP Encryption parameters. 12 P-334WT WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encrypts data frames before transmitting over the wireless network. The higher the WEP Encryption, the higher the security but the slower the throughput. Use Passphrase to automatically generate a key or manually enter a key in one of the Key 1~ 4 fields. Select 64-bit, 128-bit or 256-bit from the WEP Encryption drop-down list. Select one of the Key radio buttons to use as the WEP key. You can generate or manually enter a WEP key by either: Entering a Passphrase (up to 32 printable characters) and clicking Generate. The Prestige automatically generates a WEP key. Or Entering a manual key in a Key field and selecting ASCII or Hex WEP key input method. 4. Choose Extend(WPA-PSK) security in the second wizard screen to set up a Pre-Shared Key. Pre-Shared Key Type a pre-shared key to have a more secure wireless connection than WEP encryption. Type from 8 to 31 case-sensitive ASCII characters. You can set up the most secure wireless connection by configuring WPA in the advanced wireless screen. You need to configure a RADIUS server to do this. 5. This wizard screen has three variations depending on what encapsulation type you use. Use the information in Internet Account Information to fill in fields. 13 P-334WT Choose Ethernet when the WAN port is used as a regular Ethernet. Choose from Standard, Telia Login or a RoadRunner version. You'll need User Name, Password and Login Server IP Address for some Roadrunner versions. PPPoE or Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPP over Ethernet) also functions as a dial-up connection. Therefore you'll also need a username and password and possibly the PPPoE service name. Your ISP will give you all needed information. Choose PPTP if your service provider uses a DSL terminator with PPTP login. The Prestige must have a static IP address in this case. You'll also need a login name, associated password, ...
