, or
) in the system tray and select Connect 1. Click the network icon (
to a network. 2. Search for the SSID of your BR-6288ACL and then click Connect. If you set a password for your network, you will then be prompted to enter it. 150 3. After correctly entering your password, you will be successfully connected to the BR-6288ACLs wireless network. 151 IV-3. Troubleshooting 1. In range extender mode, is my BR-6288ACL dual-band?
a. Yes. The BR-6288ACL can extend 2.4GHz & 5GHz Wi-Fi signals concurrently, but you must connect your BR-6288ACL to each (2.4GHz & 5GHz) network separately during iQ setup. During iQ Setup, you will be asked to select both a 2.4GHz & 5GHz Wi-Fi network to extend, as well as specify a new SSID (name) and password for each of the networks that your BR-6288ACLs will broadcast/extend. You can disable either 2.4GHz or 5GHz Wi-Fi during iQ setup if there is no appropriate source network available, or if you do not wish to use it. If either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz frequency band is disabled, wireless clients/devices on the same frequency band will be unable to connect to your range extender. 2. In range extender mode, if my BR-6288ACL is set up as a dual-band extender, what happens when I connect a wired Ethernet client?
a. When you connect a network device to your BR-6288ACL in range extender mode via Ethernet cable, by default the network device will connect to the 5GHz network. If there is no 5GHz network available, the network device will connect to the 2.4GHz network instead. 3. In range extender mode, how do I connect to a network which has a hidden SSID?
a. During iQ Setup, you can manually enter a SSID in the Wi-Fi network name field as shown below, for either/both 2.4GHz and 5GHz, along with the relevant encryption information. 152 Wi-Fi network name Enter the SSID (network name) of your existing, Range extender SSID Encryption hidden network. Enter an SSID for the BR-6288ACL or leave it blank to use a default which consists of your existing routers SSID (above) +"_2EX". Select and enter the encryption information for your existing, hidden network. 4. I cant access the Internet. a. Ensure that all cables are connected properly. Try a different Ethernet cable. b. Check if you can access the web based configuration interface. If not, please ensure your Wi-Fi device is set to use a dynamic IP address. If you are unsure how to do this, try using a computer and refer to the user manual for guidance. c. Login to the web based configuration interface and go to Internet > WAN Setup and check that the connection type is correct. If you are unsure which internet connection type you have, please contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP). d. Connect a computer directly to your modem and check if you can access the internet. If you cant, please contact your Internet service provider for assistance. 5. I cant open the web based configuration interface. a. Please ensure your Wi-Fi device is set to use a dynamic IP address. If you are unsure how to do this, try using a computer and refer to IV-1-1. How to check that your computer uses a dynamic IP address. 153 6. I forgot my password. a. Reset the router to its factory default settings and use the default username admin and default password 1234. 7. My BR-6288ACL has a weak wireless signal. Weak signals are usually caused by interference from other devices or obstacles blocking the BR-6288ACLs wireless signal:
a. Keep the device away from other radio devices such as microwaves or cordless phones. b. Do not put the device in the corner of a room or under/nearby metal. c. Ensure there are as few obstacles as possible between the BR-6288ACL and your wireless network device. In range extender mode, the BR-6288ACLs weak wireless signal may be in turn caused by a weak signal from your existing router. Its important to choose a good location for the BR-6288ACL in relation to your existing wireless router. The best location is roughly in the middle between your existing wireless router and the area you would like to be covered by the BR-6288ACL. If you are too far away from your existing router, then it is difficult for the BR-6288ACL to receive a wireless signal. 8. A firmware upgrade failed and the BR-6288ACL isnt working. Firmware upgrade failures can happen occasionally due to power cuts or unstable connections. In this scenario, you need to first connect a computer to one of your BR-6288ACLs LAN ports using an Ethernet cable. Then you need to modify your computers IP address to 192.168.2.x where x is any value between 3 and 254. Refer to IV-1-2. How to modify the IP address of your computer if you need guidance to do so. From there, you need to go to 192.168.2.1 in a web browser, and you will see the page below:
154 Click Browse to locate the firmware file on your computer and then click Upload to upload the new firmware. It may take several minutes to complete, please wait and follow the instructions on screen. 155 V. Glossary Default Gateway (Wireless bridge): Every non-access point IP device needs to configure a default gateways IP address. When the device sends out an IP packet, if the destination is not on the same network, the device has to send the packet to its default gateway, which will then send it out towards the destination. DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol automatically gives every computer on your home network an IP address. DNS Server IP Address: DNS stands for Domain Name System, which allows Internet servers to have a domain name (such as www.Broadbandaccess point.com) and one or more IP addresses (such as 74.125.128.104). A DNS server keeps a database of Internet servers and their respective domain names and IP addresses, so that when a domain name is requested (as in typing "Broadbandaccess point.com" into your Internet browser), the user is sent to the proper IP address. The DNS server IP address used by the computers on your home network is the location of the DNS server your ISP has assigned to you. DSL Modem: DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. A DSL modem uses your existing phone lines to transmit data at high speeds. Ethernet: A standard for computer networks. Ethernet networks are connected by special cables and hubs, and move data around at up to 10/100 million bits per second (Mbps). IP Address and Network (Subnet) Mask: IP stands for Internet Protocol. An IP address consists of a series of four numbers separated by periods, that identifies a single, unique Internet computer host in an IP network. Example:
192.168.2.1. It consists of 2 portions: the IP network address, and the host identifier. The IP address is a 32-bit binary pattern, which can be represented as four cascaded decimal numbers separated by .: aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa, where each aaa can be anything from 000 to 255, or as four cascaded binary numbers separated by .: bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb.bbbbbbbb, where each b can either be 0 or 1. 156 A network mask is also a 32-bit binary pattern, and consists of consecutive leading 1s followed by consecutive trailing 0s, such as 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000. Therefore sometimes a network mask can also be described simply as x number of leading 1s. When both are represented side by side in their binary forms, all bits in the IP address that correspond to 1s in the network mask become part of the IP network address, and the remaining bits correspond to the host ID. For example, if the IP address for a device is, in its binary form, 11011001.10110000.10010000.00000111, and if its network mask is, 11111111.11111111.11110000.00000000 It means the devices network address is 11011001.10110000.10010000.00000000, and its host ID is, 00000000.00000000.00000000.00000111. This is a convenient and efficient method for access points to route IP packets to their destination. ISP Gateway Address: (see ISP for definition). The ISP Gateway Address is an IP address for the Internet access point located at the ISP's office. ISP: Internet Service Provider. An ISP is a business that provides connectivity to the Internet for individuals and other businesses or organizations. LAN: Local Area Network. A LAN is a group of computers and devices connected together in a relatively small area (such as a house or an office). Your home network is considered a LAN. MAC Address: MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address is the hardware address of a device connected to a network. The MAC address is a unique identifier for a device with an Ethernet interface. It is comprised of two parts: 3 bytes of data that corresponds to the Manufacturer ID (unique for each manufacturer), plus 3 bytes that are often used as the products serial number. NAT: Network Address Translation. This process allows all of the computers on your home network to use one IP address. Using the broadband access points NAT capability, you can access the Internet from any computer on your home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP. 157 23 21 25 110 1720 161 162 80 1723 5631 5632 Port: Network Clients (LAN PC) uses port numbers to distinguish one network application/protocol over another. Below is a list of common applications and protocol/port numbers:
Application Protocol Port Number TCP Telnet TCP FTP TCP SMTP TCP POP3 TCP H.323 UCP SNMP SNMP Trap UDP HTTP TCP PPTP TCP PC Anywhere TCP PC Anywhere UDP Access point: A access point is an intelligent network device that forwards packets between different networks based on network layer address information such as IP addresses. Subnet Mask: A subnet mask, which may be a part of the TCP/IP information provided by your ISP, is a set of four numbers (e.g. 255.255.255.0) configured like an IP address. It is used to create IP address numbers used only within a particular network (as opposed to valid IP address numbers recognized by the Internet, which must be assigned by InterNIC). TCP/IP, UDP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP). TCP/IP is the standard protocol for data transmission over the Internet. Both TCP and UDP are transport layer protocol. TCP performs proper error detection and error recovery, and thus is reliable. UDP on the other hand is not reliable. They both run on top of the IP (Internet Protocol), a network layer protocol. WAN: Wide Area Network. A network that connects computers located in geographically separate areas (e.g. different buildings, cities, countries). The Internet is a wide area network. 158 Web-based management Graphical User Interface (GUI): Many devices support a graphical user interface that is based on the web browser. This means the user can use the familiar Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer to Control/configure or monitor the device being managed. 159 COPYRIGHT Copyright Edimax Technology Co., Ltd. all rights reserved.
