1. Product Introduction 1.1. Welcome! Thank you for choosing the SAG-1010 series. The SAG-1010 is a compact easy-to-install Ethernet adapter. Implementing the IEEE 802.11g standard for wireless LAN (WLAN), the SAG-1010 is capable of up to 54Mbps data transmission rate using the Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technologies.
1. Product Introduction 1.3.1. Top View LEDs The SAG-1010 comes with three LED indicators (Ethernet, Wireless, and Power). Air vents. These vents provide ventilation to the device. Status Indicators 1.3.2. Bottom View Mounting hole Mounting hook Use the mounting hook to install the device on concrete or wooden surfaces using a roundhead screw. 1.3.3. Rear View Ethernet port This port connects the supplied RJ-45 plug and cable. Power socket This socket connects the power adapter plug.
1. Product Introduction 1.5. Recommended network settings The SAG-1010 can be configured as a wireless Ethernet adapter. In Ethernet adapter mode, the device connects to: 1. A wireless device(s) (Ad-hoc mode), or 2. An access point (Infrastructure network type) Determine your network settings before installing the SAG-1010. The following network settings are recommended. 1.5.1.
1. Product Introduction 1.5.2. Ethernet adapter mode Ad-hoc network When in Ad-hoc network, the SAG-1010 connects to another wireless device. No access point (AP) is present in this wireless environment. Station 1 Station 2 Infrastructure mode When in Infrastructure mode, the wireless network is centered on an access point (AP) that provides a central link for wireless clients to communicate with each other or with a wired network.
1. Product Introduction Single IP bridge environment In a single IP bridge environment, the SAG-1010 connects to an access point using a single IP address. In this setup, the MAC cloning feature may be enabled to support certain applications and devices, such as Xbox and PlayStation® game consoles, that use the MAC address to communicate with other devices. MAC cloning allows the SAG-1010 to communicate with other devices in a wireless network using the MAC address of the host computer instead of its own.
2. Hardware istallation 2.1 System requirements Before installing the SAG-1010, make sure that your system/network meets the following requirements: • An Ethernet RJ-45 port (10Base-T/100Base-TX) • At least one IEEE 802.11b/g device with wireless capability • An installed TCP/IP and Internet browser 2.2 Device installation Follow these instructions to install the SAG-1010. Connect the device to your computer, network hub, switch, or router. 2.2.
2. Hardware istallation 2.2.2 Using DC power 1. Insert one end of the supplied RJ-45 cable to the SAG-1010 Ethernet port. 2. Insert the other end of the RJ-45 cable to a network hub, switch, router, or wall patch Ethernet port. 3. Connect the power adapter plug to the SAG-1010 Power socket. 4. Connect the SAG-1010 power adapter to a wall socket. 5. Connect the network hub, switch, or router power adapter plug to the Power socket of the device. 6.
2. Hardware istallation 2.3 Placement 2.3.1 Wall mounting Aside from desktop placement, you can install the SAG-1010 vertically on a wall using the mounting hook at the bottom side of the device. Mounting hook To mount the device on a wall: 1. Tighten a screw on the wall until only 1/4 inch is showing. 2. Latch the mounting hook on the screw. 2.3.2 Window mounting Using the window mount sets, SAG-1010 can be installed on flat window class, and receive wireless signals from either side of the window.
2. Hardware istallation 2.4 Operating range 2.4.1 Range The SAG-1010 range is dependent on the operating environment. Every home or office layout varies in obstacles, barriers, or wall types which may reflect or absorb radio signals. For example, two 802.11b devices in an open space may achieve an operating distance of up to 1000 meters, (3280 feet) while the same devices may only achieve up to 300 meters (984 feet) of range when used indoors.
3. Configuration 3.1. Web Configuration The Web Configuration utility allows you to configure the SAG-1010 using a web browser on your computer. The following sections provide information on how to launch and use this utility. 3.3.1 Adjusting the TCP/IP settings By default, the IP address of the SAG-1010 is 192.168.1.1, and the Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. To access the configuration utility, assign a different IP address to the network adapter where the SAG-1010 is connected.
3. Configuration 3. Double-click the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) item to display the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window. 4. Check the Use the following IP address option, then enter the IP address for the network adapter. The IP address must be 192.168.1.X. (X can be any number between 2 and 254 that is not used by another device.) 192 168 1 10 192 168 1 10 5. Set the Subnet Mask to 255.255.255.0. Click OK when finished.
3. Configuration 3.3.2 Launching the Web Configuration Using an Internet browser To launch the Web Configuration utility using an Internet web browser: 1. Open a web browser. 2. Disable your proxy settings, if any. 3. Type http://192.168.1.1 on the address bar of the browser, and then press . 4. Log on to the configuration window using the user name (admin) and password (admin), then click OK. This option requires you to change the IP address of the LAN adapter where the SAG1010 is connected.
