Wireless Point-to-point
During point-to-point communications, one DH-PFM881 is usually set to be an access point, while
the other DH-PFM881 equipment is the client. Actual connection diagram is as follows.
Figure 3-1 Networking Diagram of Access Point and Client
1. At Network Settings Page->Network Mode, both DH-PFM88X equipment shall be set to network
bridge mode; firewall is prohibited in both equipment; they have different LAN IP.
2. At Wireless Page, wireless mode shall be set to be access point and client respectively. AP and
client have the same SSID, the same encryption way and password. For example,
WPA->WPA2->CCMP->1234567890. Output power is set to be 13dBm, AP frequency is 5.785GHz,
whereas channel width of AP and client is 20MHZ.
3.
Caution:
directions of AP and client shall be opposite.
4. One computer pings the other computer. That is to say, input ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (IP of the other
computer) on one computer.
Expected result: after AP and client are connected, computers of AP and client can ping with each other.
Meanwhile, connection quantity is 1 on AP status display page.
