8. On the Advanced Admin page, set the parameters as follows:

• 

Choose Device Type: Access Point or Subscriber Unit.

• 

For Subscriber Units, assign unique ID numbers in numeric order from 1 to 63.

• 

For an Access Point, enter the number of Subscriber Units that will be com-

municating with it. 

•  Click the box labeled “Enable User Specified Keys.”

• 

Choose an 8-digit hex (0-9 and A-F) Network Name that will be common 

among the AP and its SUs and enter it. The hyphen is required.

• 

Choose a 32-digit hex encryption key and enter it. Again, the hyphens are 

required. This key must match between the AP and the SU so make a note of 

it as well. 

After entering the parameters, click the “Apply” button to save them to the radio.

9. When all of the radios are keyed and operating, connect them to your network 

and Ethernet devices as desired and cycle the radio’s power to begin normal opera-

tion. Now, browser mamagement of the SUs can be performed over the wireless 

network. Note: avoid plugging actively linked radios into the same switch because 

this will corrupt its routing table and may cause network problems just as if you had 

plugged a CAT5 cable directly between two ports of a switch.
