Overview The TW-1760 Wi-Fi Adapter acts as a Wi-Fi access point, creating a network to support data transfers between a radio in a TSM network and various Wi-Fi devices. This document discusses how to configure a Wi-Fi Adapter and introduces best practices for maximizing your adapter performance. Relevant Products The Wi-Fi adapter is compatible with the following TrellisWare radios: • TW-900/950 TSM Shadow • TW-135 TSM High-power Shadow Basic Setup Required Equipment: 1. PC with an 802.
Wi-Fi Network Configuration Before getting started, you must complete the pre-configuration steps for loading certificates and setting up your workstation. Please refer to TN-0040 – Computer Pre-Configuration for details. Step 1: Attach the Wi-Fi adapter to the radio 1. Attach the Wi-Fi adapter to the multi-functional side connector on the radio. The alignment pin is positioned towards the top of the radio. 2. Use the thumbscrew to secure the dongle to the radio. 3.
2. Enter 10.1.0.2 OR sn-xxxx.local (where ‘xxxx’ is the radio serial number) OR the IP address of the radio in the web browser address bar on the PC. 3. Access the TrellisWare Network Controller (TNC) web applications page. Click the Devices tab in the left panel and select the Remote Control icon. 4. On the right side of the page, a configuration menu should populate. Scroll down and select the Wi-Fi drop-down, enter your desired SSID, password, Channel, Broadcast setting, and click Save. 5.
Wi-Fi Adapter Best Practices Wi-Fi Signal Strength and Range The Wi-Fi dongle antenna radiates from the plastic window of the outer housing. Maintaining a clear path between a Wi-Fi Dongle antenna and the client provides the best connection. Signal strength can vary depending on obstructions, such as walls, bodies, metal, etc. The maximum range of the Wi-Fi Dongle is around 250 feet in line-of-sight conditions.
Wi-Fi Data Throughput In addition to signal strength and channel contention limitations, there are additional factors that reduce achievable data rates from theoretical maximums which are advertised. The advertised rates do not account for protocol overhead that Wi-Fi connections must exchange for security and reliability, nor do they account for any high-layer protocol (e.g. TCP/IP) overhead.
