User manual BUFFALO WLI-TX4-G54HP : WIRELESS-G MIMO PERFORMANCE* ETHERNET CONVERTER

[. . . ] Power cycle both the router and the ethernet converter and attempt the AOSS process again. It is recommended to move the Ethernet Converter closer to your wireless access point or wireless router. Power Connector AOSS button 4 Manual Configuration If your wireless router/access point doesn't support AOSS, you'll need to configure the access point manually. There are two ways to do this: you can use the Ethernet Converter Manager software if you have a Windows PC on the network (98/ME/2000/XP only), or you may use a web browser. Web browser configuration may be done with any computer running a recent web browser, including Macintosh and Linux machines. 5 Configuration with Ethernet Converter Manager If you have a Windows 98/ME/2000/XP machine with a CD-ROM drive available on your computer network, the Ethernet Converter Manager makes it simple to configure the Ethernet Converter. [. . . ] The first step in the Web Based Configuration should be to search for an available wireless network. To do this, press the Search button in the 'SSID (Network Name)' table. After pressing the Search button, the Search for SSID program will run. Select the appropriate wireless network that you would like to connect to and press the Select button. If encryption is enabled on the wireless network, you will need to enter the encryption key on a future step. 12 After selecting a wireless network to connect to, you will be returned to the main Web Based Configuration page. If the wireless network you are attempting to connect to is not broadcasting its SSID, then you will be required to manually enter the SSID into the SSID field. After the field is populated with the proper SSID, then press the Apply Settings button. 13 The SSID in the table will be populated now. Depending on whether or not the wireless network is using WEP Encryption or not, the Encryption Key option may be set to Encrypt or No Encryption. If it is set to No Encryption then you are already connected to the wireless network, and you may skip to the last step on this page. If the Encryption Key option is set to 'Encrypt' then you will need to enter the correct encryption type and key and press the Apply Settings button. The drop down menu references the type of encryption key used, either WEP, TKIP, or AES. It is important that you know not only your encryption key but also the type of key. Please consult your Router/Acess Point's wireless settings and documentation for further information. Once the encryption information has been completed, press the Apply Settings button. The main Web Based Configuration page will now list the connection information in the Wireless Connection Status table. 14 The Ethernet Converter configuration is complete. To continue configuring advanced settings, please skip to the next page. Disconnect the Ethernet Converter from the network connection and power adapter, and move it to the desired location. Plug the Ethernet Converter's LAN port into the wired device that requires the wireless Ethernet Converter (devices could be an XBox, PS2, Home Theater Media Adapter, switch, hub, or another computer system). Plug the AC Adapter into a nearby power outlet and connect the power connector to the Ethernet Converter. If you set a static IP address on your computer on page 8, then reference the operating system documentation to restore the IP settings to obtain an IP Address automatically. 15 Advanced Configuration To access Advanced settings, press the blue Advanced button in the bottom right corner of the Home page. This is the advanced page. On the left, you may choose from Wireless Settings, Network Settings, or Management. Changes on advanced pages are not applied until the Apply button is pressed. 16 Wireless Settings Multiple Client Support - allows the built-in 4 port switch to be connected to multiple clients.
