Wireless Point-to-multipoint
During point-to-multipoint communications, DH-PFM880 is usually set to be an access point (single
AP covers 90 degrees and 4 AP cover 360 degrees), while other DH-PFM881 equipment shall be client.
Actual connection diagram is as follows.
Figure 3-2 Point-to-multipoint Networking Diagram
1. At Network Settings Page->Network Mode, all DH-PFM88X equipment shall be set to network
bridge mode; firewall is prohibited (which is disenabled by default) in all 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. It is suggested that configuration should be completed
according to equipment wizard.
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.
