Introduction  
This Chapter provides an overview of the Hawking Technologies’ Hi-Speed  
Wireless-G Router's features and capabilities.  
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Hi-Speed, 54Mbps, Hawking Technologies  
Wireless-G Router. The Wireless-G Router is a multi-function device providing the  
following services:  
·
·
·
Shared Broadband Internet Access for all LAN users.  
4-Port Switching Hub for 10BaseT or 100BaseT connections.  
Wireless Access Point for 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless Stations.  
Wireless Router Features  
The Wireless-G Router incorporates many advanced features, carefully designed to  
provide sophisticated functions while being easy to use.  
Internet Access Features  
·
·
Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN or WLAN can access the  
Internet through the Wireless Router, using only a single external IP Address. The  
local (invalid) IP Addresses are hidden from external sources. This process is called  
NAT (Network Address Translation).  
DSL & Cable Modem Support. The Wireless Router has a 10/100BaseT  
Ethernet port for connecting a DSL or Cable Modem. All popular DSL and Cable  
Modems are supported. SingTel RAS and Big Pond (Australia) login support is also  
included.  
·
·
PPPoE, and PPTP. The Internet (WAN port) connection supports PPPoE (PPP  
over Ethernet), PPTP (Peer-to-Peer Tunneling Protocol), as well as "Direct Connec-  
tion" type services. Unnumbered IP with PPPoE is also supported.  
Fixed or Dynamic IP Address, the Wireless-G Router supports both Dynamic  
IP Address (IP Address is allocated on connection) and Fixed IP Address.

Advanced Internet Functions  
·
Communication Applications. Support for Internet communication applica-  
tions, such as interactive Games, Telephony, and Conferencing applications, which  
are often difficult to use when behind a Firewall, is included.  
·
Special Internet Applications. Applications which use non-standard connec-  
tions or port numbers are normally blocked by the Firewall. The ability to define and  
open ports for whatever your application may be is supported.  
·
·
Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on  
your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.  
DDNS Support. DDNS (Dynamic DNS) allows Internet users to connect to  
Virtual Servers on your LAN using a domain name, even if your IP address is not  
fixed.  
·
Multi-DMZ. For each WAN (Internet) IP address allocated to you, only one (1)  
PC on your local LAN can be configured to allow unrestricted 2-way communication  
with Servers or individual users on the Internet. This provides the ability to run pro-  
grams which are incompatible with Firewalls.  
·
URL Filter. Use the URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN  
users.  
·
·
Internet Access Log. See which Internet connections have been made.  
Access Control. Using the Access Control feature, you can assign LAN users  
to different groups, and determine which Internet services are available to each  
group.  
·
VPN Pass through Support. PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking)  
software using PPTP, L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no configura-  
tion is required.  
Wireless Features  
·
Standards Compliant. The Wireless Router complies with the IEEE802.11g  
(DSSS) specifications for Wireless LANs.  
·
Supports both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless Stations. The 802.11g  
standard provides for backward compatibility with the 802.11b standard, so both  
802.11b and 802.11g Wireless stations can be used simultaneously.  
·
·
·
Speeds to 54Mbps. All speeds up to the 802.11g maximum of 54Mbps are  
supported.  
WEP support. Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key  
sizes of 64 Bit and 128 Bit are supported.  
Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can  
check the the MAC address (hardware address) of Wireless stations to ensure that  
only trusted Wireless Stations can access your LAN.  
·
Simple Configuration. If the default settings are unsuitable, they can be  
changed quickly and easily.  
LAN Features  
·
4-Port Switching Hub. The Wireless Router incorporates a 4-port 10/100BaseT  
switching hub, making it easy to create or extend your LAN.

Introduction  
·
·
DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dy-  
namic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The Wireless Router can  
act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.  
Multi Segment LAN Support. LANs containing one or more segments are  
supported, using the Wireless Router's RIP (Routing Information Protocol) support  
and built-in static routing table.  
Configuration & Management  
·
Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN for  
configuration.  
·
Configuration File Upload/Download. Save (download) the configuration  
data from the Wireless Router to your PC, and restore (upload) a previously-saved  
configuration file to the Wireless-G Router.  
·
Remote Management. The Wireless-G Router can be managed from any PC  
on your LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (optionally) be con-  
figured via the Internet.  
·
·
Network Diagnostics. You can use the Wireless-G Router to perform a Ping or  
DNS lookup.  
UPnP Support. UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery and  
configuration of the Wireless Router. UPnP is by supported by Windows ME, XP, or  
later.  
Security Features  
·
·
·
Password - protected Configuration. Optional password protection is  
provided to prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and  
settings.  
Wireless LAN Security. WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is supported, as well  
as Wireless access control to prevent unknown wireless stations from accessing  
your LAN.  
NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation)  
technology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the loca-  
tion and even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there  
is no network, only a single device - the Wireless Router.  
·
Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood  
your Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so  
much bandwidth and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable.  
The Wireless Router incorporates protection against DoS attacks.

Configuration Program -  
The Wireless Router contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect to it, and  
configure it, using your Web Browser. Your Browser must support JavaScript.  
The configuration program has been tested on the following browsers:  
·
·
Netscape V4.08 or later  
Internet Explorer V4 or later  
Mac Installation  
·
Mac OSX users may also follow these instructions for setup. (IE browser recom-  
mended)  
Preparation  
Before attempting to configure the Wireless Router, please ensure that:  
·
Your PC can establish a physical connection to the Wireless Router. The PC and  
the Wireless Router must be directly connected (using the Hub ports on the Wire-  
less Router) or on the same LAN segment.  
·
·
The Wireless Router must be installed and powered ON.  
If the Wireless Router's default IP Address (192.168.1.254) is already used by  
another device, the other device must be turned OFF until the Wireless Router is al-  
located a new IP Address during configuration.  
Using UPnP  
If your Windows system supports UPnP, an icon for the Wireless Router will appear in  
the system tray, notifying you that a new network device has been found, and offering to  
create a new desktop shortcut to the newly-discovered device.  
·
·
·
Unless you intend to change the IP Address of the Wireless Router, you can accept  
the desktop shortcut.  
Whether you accept the desktop shortcut or not, you can always find UPnP devices  
in My Network Places (previously called Network Neighborhood).  
Double - click the icon for the Wireless Router (either on the Desktop, or in My  
Network Places) to start the configuration. Refer to the following section Setup Wiz-  
ard for details of the initial configuration process.  
Using your Web Browser  
To establish a connection from your PC to the Wireless Router:  
1. After installing the Wireless Router in your LAN, start your PC. If your PC is already  
running, restart it.  
2. Start your WEB browser.  
3. In the Address box, enter "HTTP://" and the IP Address of the Wireless Router, as  
in this example, which uses the Wireless Router's default IP Address:  
HTTP://192.168.1.254  
Because the default password is blank, you will not be prompted for a password. How-  
ever, you should assign a password. See the Password Setup section later in this  
chapter for details.

Advanced Administration  
If you can't connect  
If the Wireless Router does not respond, check the following:  
·
The Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it is  
powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" command:  
·
·
Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.  
Enter the command:  
ping 192.168.1.254  
If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or  
your PC's IP address is not compatible with the Wireless Router's IP  
Address. (See next item.)  
·
If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the  
range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253 to be compatible with the Wireless  
Router's default IP Address of 192.168.1.254. Also, the Network Mask  
must be set to 255.255.255.0. See Chapter 4 - PC Configuration for de-  
tails on checking your PC's TCP/IP settings.  
·
·
Ensure that your PC and the Wireless Router are on the same network  
segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)  
Ensure you are using the wired LAN interface. The Wireless interface can  
only be used if its configuration matches your PC's wireless settings.

6. To manage your wireless network security by selecting the encryption type (None,  
WEP, WPA and WPA2) from the pull-down menu. Enter the required information for  
your specific security setting selection. Note that all wireless devices within your  
network must have the same settings in order for the network to function properly.  
(WPA2 is an advanced security setting and may not yet be available with some net-  
working devices)  
WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Advanced Administration  
WEP is a basic wireless security setting. It is not full proof and may be hacked into by experi-  
enced hackers. For WEP there are two types of security keys 64-bit and 128-bit. The higher the  
number the more secure. You will have to input the corresponding key (10 digit hex key) for 64-  
Bit and (28-digit hex key) for 128-Bit.  
WPA WiFi Protected Access  
WPA is a more advnaced standard of security. WPA2 is a newer version of WPA. WPA gives  
you a choice of two encryption methods: TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) and AES  
(Advanced Encryption System). You simply enter in a passphrase which will be converted to a  
valid encryption key that will be used throughout your system. Hawking recommends that  
WPA be used within your network for tighter security.  
Note that implementing encryption may have a slight negative effect on your network’s per-  
formance.

Server feature. It allows Internet users to connect to your Virtual  
Servers using a URL, rather than an IP Address. This also  
solves the problem of having a dynamic IP address. With a  
dynamic IP address, your IP address may change whenever  
you connect, which makes it difficult to connect to you.

Appendix A  
Troubleshooting  
This Appendix covers the most likely problems and their solutions.  
Overview  
This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the  
Wireless Router and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps  
and the Wireless Router still does not function properly, contact your dealer for further  
advice.  
General Problems  
Problem 1: Can't connect to the Wireless Router to configure it.  
Solution 1: Check the following:  
·
The Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connections are  
OK, and it is powered ON.  
·
Ensure that your PC and the Wireless Router are on the same  
network segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the  
case.)  
·
·
If your PC is set to "Obtain an IP Address automatically" (DHCP  
client), restart it.  
If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using  
an IP Address within the range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253 and  
thus compatible with the Wireless Router's default IP Address of  
192.168.1.254.  
Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match  
the Wireless Router.  
In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control Panel-  
Network to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.  
Internet Access  
Problem 1: When I enter a URL or IP address I get a time out error.  
Solution 1: A number of things could be causing this. Try the following trouble-  
shooting steps.  
·
·
·
Check if other PCs work. If they do, ensure that your PCs IP  
settings are correct. If using a Fixed (Static) IP Address, check the  
Network Mask, Default gateway and DNS as well as the IP Ad-  
dress.  
If the PCs are configured correctly, but still not working, check the  
Wireless Router. Ensure that it is connected and ON. Connect to it  
and check its settings. (If you can't connect to it, check the LAN  
and power connections.)  
If the Wireless Router is configured correctly, check your Internet

Appendix A - Troubleshooting  
connection (DSL/Cable modem etc) to see that it is working cor-  
rectly.  
Problem 2: Some applications do not run properly when using the Wireless  
Router.  
Solution 2: The Wireless Router processes the data passing through it, so it is not  
transparent.  
Use the Special Applications feature to allow the use of Internet appli-  
cations which do not function correctly.  
If this does solve the problem you can use the DMZ function. This  
should work with almost every application, but:  
·
·
It is a security risk, since the firewall is disabled.  
Only one (1) PC can use this feature.  
Wireless Access  
Problem 1: My PC can't locate the Wireless Access Point.  
Solution 1: Check the following.  
·
Your PC is set to Infrastructure Mode. (Access Points are always  
in Infrastructure Mode)  
·
The SSID on your PC and the Wireless Access Point are the  
same.  
Remember that the SSID is case-sensitive. So, for example  
"Workgroup" does NOT match "workgroup".  
·
Both your PC and the Wireless Router must have the same setting  
for WEP. The default setting for the Wireless Router is disabled,  
so your wireless station should also have WEP disabled.  
·
·
If WEP is enabled on the Wireless Router, your PC must have  
WEP enabled, and the key must match.  
If the Wireless Router's Wireless screen is set to Allow LAN  
access to selected Wireless Stations only, then each of your Wire-  
less stations must have been selected, or access will be blocked.  
·
To see if radio interference is causing a problem, see if connection  
is  
possible  
when  
close  
to  
the  
Wireless  
Router.  
Remember that the connection range can be as little as 100 feet in  
poor environments.  
Problem 2: Wireless connection speed is very slow.  
Solution 2: The wireless system will connect at the highest possible speed, de-  
pending on the distance and the environment. To obtain the highest  
possible connection speed, you can experiment with the following:  
·
Wireless Router location.  
Try adjusting the location and orientation of the Wireless Router.  
·
Wireless Channel  
If interference is the problem, changing to another channel may  
show a marked improvement.  
·
Radio Interference  
Other devices may be causing interference. You can experiment  
by switching other devices Off, and see if this helps. Any "noisy"  
devices should be shielded or relocated.

·
RF Shielding  
Your environment may tend to block transmission between the  
wireless stations. This will mean high access speed is only possi-  
ble when close to the Wireless Router.

Appendix B  
About Wireless LANs  
B
This Appendix provides some background information about using Wire-  
less LANs (WLANs).  
Modes  
Wireless LANs can work in either of two (2) modes:  
·
·
Ad-hoc  
Infrastructure  
Ad-hoc Mode  
Ad-hoc mode does not require an Access Point or a wired (Ethernet) LAN. Wireless  
Stations (e.g. notebook PCs with wireless cards) communicate directly with each  
other.  
Infrastructure Mode  
In Infrastructure Mode, one or more Access Points are used to connect Wireless  
Stations (e.g. Notebook PCs with wireless cards) to a wired (Ethernet) LAN. The  
Wireless Stations can then access all LAN resources.  
Access Points can only function in "Infrastructure" mode, and  
can communicate only with Wireless Stations which are set  
to "Infrastructure" mode.  
BSS  
BSS  
A group of Wireless Stations and a single Access Point, all using the same ID (SSID),  
form a Basic Service Set (BSS).  
Using the same SSID is essential. Devices with different SSIDs are unable to commu-  
nicate with each other.  
Channels  
The Wireless Channel sets the radio frequency used for communication.  
·
Access Points use a fixed Channel. You can select the Channel used. This allows  
you to choose a Channel which provides the least interference and best perform-  
ance. In the USA and Canada, 11 channel are available. If using multiple Access  
Points, it is better if adjacent Access Points use different Channels to reduce inter-  
ference.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
·
In "Infrastructure" mode, Wireless Stations normally scan all Channels, looking for  
an Access Point. If more than one Access Point can be used, the one with the  
strongest signal is used. (This can only happen within an ESS.)  
WEP  
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a standard for encrypting data before it is transmit-  
ted.  
This is desirable because it is impossible to prevent snoopers from receiving any data  
which is transmitted by your Wireless Stations. But if the data is encrypted, then it is  
meaningless unless the receiver can decrypt it.  
If WEP is used, the Wireless Stations and the Access Point must have the same  
settings for each of the following:  
WEP  
Key  
Off, 64 Bit, 128 Bit  
For 64 Bit encryption, the Key value must match.  
For 128 Bit encryption, the Key value must match  
WEP Authentication  
Open System or Shared Key.  
Wireless LAN Configuration  
To allow Wireless Stations to use the Access Point, the Wireless Stations and the  
Access Point must use the same settings, as follows:  
Mode  
On client Wireless Stations, the mode must be set to "Infrastruc-  
ture".  
(The Access Point is always in "Infrastructure" mode.)  
SSID (ESSID)  
Wireless Stations should use the same SSID (ESSID) as the  
Access Point they wish to connect to. Alternatively, the SSID can  
be set to "any" or null (blank) to allow connection to any Access  
Point.  
WEP  
The Wireless Stations and the Access Point must use the same  
settings for WEP (Off, 64 Bit, 128 Bit).  
WEP Key: If WEP is enabled, the Key must be the same on the  
Wireless Stations and the Access Point.  
WEP Authentication: If WEP is enabled, all Wireless Stations  
must use the same setting as the Access Point (either "Open  
System" or "Shared Key").
