Introduction
This manual is intended to familiarize customers with Connect One’s Instant Internet
Evaluation Board II-EVB-365SMT. The II-EVB-365SMT is an evaluation platform
for the Nano WiReach™ SMT Module, which is a secure serial-to-WiFi / serial-to-
LAN module that provides a wide range of commands to initiate Internet connectivity
and can also act as a bridge to connect serial devices to wired Ethernet or 802.11b/g
wireless LANs. Furthermore, the module can also be configured as a full-blown router
between LAN and WiFi subnets. With an external USB modem communications and
routing are extended to the cellular network, providing for a unique mobile router
capability. The module has an economic SMT form factor and is based on
Connect One’s iChip CO2144 IP Communication Controller
™
and the AT+i
™
command set, a powerful set of Internet protocol commands developed by
Connect One to manage Internet connectivity through an Ethernet, Wireless LAN or
cellular connection.
The module enables sending and receiving textual and binary data, MIME-encoded
email messages; downloading HTML pages or files from a Web server, or items from
within a page; Web serving, as well as managing TCP or UDP socket
communications (with or without SSL3) over the Internet. It also include an FTP
client and a TELNET client.
Nano WiReach SMT can easily connect existing LAN based solutions to a WiFi
network when used in bridging mode.
Nano WiReach SMT supports numerous WiFi security protocols such as 64/128-bit
WEP encryption, AES-CCM and TKIP encryption, WPA (including AES) and WPA2
in both PSK and Enterprise modes. The module also supports the SSL3/TLS1 security
protocols.
When used as a router, the Nano WiReach SMT provides IP allocation via a DHCP
server and NAT translation when routing packets between a local subnet and a WAN.
Three-way routing between wired-LAN, WiFi and a cellular network is fully
supported. In routing mode, port-forward rules may be configured between the WAN
connection and any specific local subnet node.
