Introduction
The AP (IEEE 802.11 HR, 11 Mbps WLAN Access Point) is a long-range, high
performance LAN product, which provides Access Point services to a 2,4 GHz RF net-
work and bridges to an Ethernet backbone. The design of this product is based on
AT76C510 (bridge-on-a-chip) module, a highly integrated ASIC designed to combine
legacy LANs with wireless LANs. AT76C510 performs all the necessary inter-network-
ing and bridging functions. It receives data from both networks, stores them locally for
further processing, installs and maintains connections and transmits the packets to the
proper destination. Furthermore, AT76C510 interfaces three more modules, the Ether-
net PHY, the wireless PHY and the RAM modules, for allowing compact system
implementation and flexibility for supporting almost all the possible physical interfaces.
This document describes the steps required for the initial set up of the AP IP address,
the AP configuration, and the firmware upgrade procedure. The description includes the
implementation of the above steps through both Ethernet and USB.
