The WAP6806 triggers uplink WPS. The WAP6806 triggers downlink WPS. The WAP6806 triggers both 2.4G and 5G primary Service Set Identity (SSID) at the same time. 1.4.1 Wi-Fi Protected Setup Your WAP6806 supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), which is an easy way to set up a secure wireless network. WPS is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance. WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually. Each WPS connection works between two devices. Both devices must support WPS (check each devices documentation to make sure). Depending on the devices you have, you can either press a button (recommended) on the device itself, or in its configuration utility or enter a PIN (a unique Personal Identification Number that allows one device to authenticate the other) in each of the two devices. When WPS is activated on a device, it has two minutes to find another device that also has WPS activated. Then, the two devices connect and set up a secure network by themselves. For more information on using WPS, see Section 12.7 on page 69. 1.5 Reset Button If you forget your password or IP address, or you cannot access the Web Configurator, you will need to use the RESET button at the back of the WAP6806 to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously saved, the password will be reset to 1234 and the IP address of the WAP6806 will be reset to 192.168.1.2. 1.5.1 Procedure to Use the Reset Button 1 Make sure the power LED is on. 2 Press the RESET button for one to five seconds to reboot the WAP6806. WAP6806 Users Guide 12 Chapter 1 Introduction 3 Press the RESET button for longer than five seconds to set the WAP6806 back to its factory-default configuration. 1.6 2-way Installation The WAP6806 can be used for 2-way installation: vertical and wall mounted. 1.6.1 Stand To have your WAP6806 as a stand-alone device, put you WAP6806 vertically into the stand as shown below. 1.6.2 Wall Mounting The following are the dimensions of a screw anchor and M3 tap screw used for wall mounting. All measurements are in millimeters (mm). WAP6806 Users Guide 13 Chapter 1 Introduction 1 2 Locate a high position on a wall that is free os obstructions. Use a sturdy wall. For a concrete or brick wall find a drill bit with the same diameter as the screw anchors. If you do not need the screw anchors, find a drill bit slightly smaller in diameter than the included screws. 3 Drill two screw holes in the wall. Make sure the distance between the centers of the holes is the same as the wall-mount holes. Note: Be careful to avoid damaging pipes or cables located inside the wall when drilling holes for the screws. 4 Align the holes on the back of the WAP6806 with the screws on the wall. Hang the WAP6806 on the screws. WAP6806 Users Guide 14 CHAPTER 2 WAP6806 Modes 2.1 Overview This chapter introduces the different modes available on your WAP6806. Device mode. This is the operating mode of your WAP6806, or simply how the WAP6806 is being used in the network. 2.1.1 Device Modes This refers to the operating mode of the WAP6806, which can act as a:
Repeater: In this mode, the WAP6806 can be an access point and a wireless client at the same time. Go to Section 3.4 on page 18 to view the Status screen in this mode. Use this mode if there is an existing wireless router or access point in your network and you also want to allow clients to connect to the WAP6806 wirelessly. Access Point: Use this mode if you want to extend your network by allowing network devices to connect to the WAP6806 wirelessly. Go to Section 4.4 on page 24 to view the Status screen in this mode. Client: Use this mode if there is an existing wireless router or access point in the network to which you want to connect your local network. Go to Section 5.5 on page 28 to view the Status screen in this mode. In Client mode, you should know the SSID and wireless security details of the access point to which you want to connect. The following figure illustrates the device configuration modes of the WAP6806. Figure 3 Device Mode Example WAP6806 Users Guide 15 Chapter 2 WAP6806 Modes Note: Choose your device mode carefully to avoid having to change it later. Under Repeater mode, the WAP6806 supports three WPS behaviors: Normal mode, Range boost mode, and Speed boost mode. These behaviors are only available in Repeater mode through the Operation Mode screen. See Section 10.3.2 on page 53 for details. WAP6806 Users Guide 16 CHAPTER 3 Repeater Mode 3.1 Overview In repeater mode, your WAP6806 can act as an access point and wireless client at the same time. The WAP6806 can connect to an existing network through another access point and also lets wireless clients connect to the network through it. This helps you expand wireless coverage when you have an access point or wireless router already in your network. In the example below, the WAP6806 (A) is configured as a repeater. It has three clients that want to connect to the Internet. The WAP6806 wirelessly connects to the available access point (B). Figure 4 Repeater Mode A B After the WAP6806 and the access point connect, the WAP6806 acquires its IP address from the access point. The clients of the WAP6806 can now surf the Internet. 3.2 What You Can Do Use the Status screen (Section 3.4 on page 18) to view read-only information about your WAP6806.

WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i) is a wireless security standard that defines stronger encryption, authentication and key management than WPA. Key differences between WPA or WPA2 and WEP are improved data encryption and user authentication. If both an AP and the wireless clients support WPA2 and you have an external RADIUS server, use WPA2 for stronger data encryption. If you dont have an external RADIUS server, you should use WPA-Personal that only requires a single (identical) password entered into each access point, wireless gateway and wireless client. As long as the password match, a wireless client will be granted access to a WLAN. If the AP or the wireless clients do not support WPA2, just use WPA or WPA-Personal depending on whether you have an external RADIUS server or not. Select WEP only when the AP and/or wireless clients do not support WPA or WPA2. WEP is less secure than WPA or WPA2. Select WPA-Personal, WPA2-Personal, or WPA/WPA2-Personal Mixed from the Encryption Type list.

Use the Advanced screen to set the RTS Threshold and WMM (Section 12.5 on page 65). Use the Security screen to configure wireless security between the WAP6806 and the wireless clients (Section 12.6 on page 66). Use the WPS screen to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually (Section 12.7 on page 69). 12.3 What You Should Know Every wireless network must follow these basic guidelines. Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use the same SSID. The SSID is the name of the wireless network. It stands for Service Set IDentity. If two wireless networks overlap, they should use different channels. Like radio stations or television channels, each wireless network uses a specific channel, or frequency, to send and receive information. Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use security compatible with the AP. Security stops unauthorized devices from using the wireless network. It can also protect the information that is sent in the wireless network. 12.3.1 Wireless Security Overview The following sections introduce different types of wireless security you can set up in the wireless network. WAP6806 Users Guide 62 Chapter 12 Wireless LAN 12.3.1.1 Encryption Wireless networks can use encryption to protect the information that is sent in the wireless network. Encryption is like a secret code. If you do not know the secret code, you cannot understand the message. Table 26 Types of Encryption for Each Type of Authentication Weakest Strongest NO AUTHENTICATION No Security WEP WPA-Personal WPA2-Personal For example, if users do not log in to the wireless network, you can choose no authentication, if users do log on to the wireless network, you can choose No Security, WEP, WPA-Personal, or WPA2-Personal. Usually, you should set up the strongest encryption that every wireless client in the wireless network supports. Suppose the wireless network has two wireless clients. Device A only supports WEP, and device B supports WEP and WPA-Personal. Therefore, you should set up WEP in the wireless network. Note: It is recommended that wireless networks use WPA-Personal, or stronger encryption. IEEE 802.1x and WEP encryption are better than none at all, but it is still possible for unauthorized devices to figure out the original information pretty quickly. Many types of encryption use a key to protect the information in the wireless network. The longer the key, the stronger the encryption. Every wireless client in the wireless network must have the same key. 12.3.1.2 WPS Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance. WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually. Depending on the devices in your network, you can either press a button (on the device itself, or in its configuration utility) or enter a PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the devices. Then, they connect and set up a secure network by themselves. 12.4 General Wireless LAN Screen Use this screen to enable the Wireless LAN, enter the SSID and select the HT physical mode. Note: If you are configuring the WAP6806 from a computer connected to the wireless LAN and you change the WAP6806s SSID, channel or security settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you press Confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of your computer to match the WAP6806s new settings. Click Configuration > Network > WLAN (2.4G/5G) to open the General screen.
