245U-E Wireless Ethernet Modem User Manual
Rev Version 2.24
10.10.0.6.
10. Switch the RUN/SETUP switch back to RUN and click Save Changes and Reset.
NOTE Because the modem can be setup in various ways (such as a bridge or router) this setup will allow
the modem to appear on the 10.10.0.X network. Any other configuration changes can be made after this
initial connection (see the following sections on configuration).
3.3 Quick Start Configuration
The 245U-E has a Quick Start Configuration option that covers most important parameters that are needed
to get an initial connection. This is the first stage of the module configuration. For most applications, no
further configuration is required. For more advanced applications, additional parameters can be changed
via the normal Configuration pages after the Quick Start configuration has been saved.
Figure 27 Quick Start
Quick Start Configuration:
1. Select Quick Start from the Main Menu and select the following parameters:
• Operating Mode
—Access Point or Client. Bridge operation is assumed. For router selection, go to the
Network page after Quick Start
• Default Gateway
—This is the address that the device will use to forward messages to remote hosts
that are not connected to any of the local bridged networks (Ethernet or Wireless).
•
IP Address / Subnet Mask
—IP address and subnet mask for your application.
•
System Address (ESSID)
—The system address is a text string 1 to 31 characters long used to identify
your system.
•
Radio Encryption
—Radio encryption selection (None, WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA-PSK (AES) or WPA2).
Refer to “3.7 Security Menu” if WEP or enterprise encryption is required.
•
WPA Passphrase
—128-bit encryption keys are internally generated based on the passphrase and
system address (ESSID). The passphrase must be between 8 and 63 characters long, and must be the
same for all 245U-E units in the same system.
The default settings will be shown. If your system is connecting individual devices that are not
connected to an existing Ethernet LAN, you can use the factory default IP values. If you are connecting
to an existing LAN, you need to change the IP addresses to match your LAN addresses.
2. After configuring, click Save to Flash and Reset.
