3 Operating Instructions
3.1 Wireless AP Mode
A) The button [AP/Wi-Fi] is located at “AP” as below:
B) Connect the AP03(PWP-3211) with mini interface of the USB cable and the other interface connect to the power adapter, connect the power adapter to the power supply, and then the power indicator is remaining on and WLAN indicator is twinkling.
Note: Only use the power supply of 5V/500mA; otherwise it will damage the portable wireless partner or be failure to get online.
C) There are two connection methods to connect the portable wireless AP to the network. Mode C1: connection from MODEN. Mode C2: connection from Router.
C1: Connect the attached network cable with the Router, then the LAN indicator will twinkling. You can get online with the wireless network, but this wireless network is without any safety limits.
C2: Connect the attached network cable with the LAN interface of the ADSL MODEM to wireless network, with the LAN indicator twinkling. Although the wireless network is already connected, it only indicates the connection between the computer and AP03(PWP-3211). You must dial up to get online to the wireless network. If done that, then you can get online to the wireless network. But this wireless is also without any safety limits.
Dialing up to connect the network as above, with the window “Connection --Broadband Connection”, please enter the user name and password provided by China Telecom and then click Connect to get online.
D) Safety Control
1. Use the peer-to-peer network cable to connect AP03( PWP-3211) with the computer, insert the attached compact disk into the CD-ROM drive, copy the folder “SWU” to the computer, and then open this folder and double click the Application” SWU”.
2. Refresh the SWU page, and you will see "SuperReal-******"which means PWP-3211 working properly.
3. Tick the box before “Change Name” and input a new name in the longer box to change the SSID of the wireless network (“SupeReal-” is not subject to any change).
4. Tick the box before “Change Password” and input a new password comprising with 5 digits. The default password is null. If you forget your password, please long press the key [RESET] more than 3s to restart the computer, removing the password you’ve set before and getting it back to null. Now you can set a new password again.
5. Tick the box before “Change Channel”, and you can select a relatively idle channel.
The settings above will not be changed under a new environment. Just leave them there unless you forget the password.
E) Click the wireless network icon on the lower right corner of the computer screen to enter the page “Wireless Network Connection”, refresh the networks list to find “SupeReal-******” with the safety wireless network , click “Connect” to enter a new window, input the new password in “Network Key”, confirm the new password again, and then click “Connect “to get online with your personal safety wireless network.

Annex
1. What are wireless signals affected by?
1) Walls in the house with a limited space are the major barriers, as WLAN applies the wireless microwave frequency band. The key feature of microwave is nearly linear transmission, with terrible diffraction ability. Therefore, the wireless device behind the barrier receives weak signals or even no signal.
2) Physical barriers not only obstruct the wireless microwave signals, but also absorb the electromagnetic energy to generate weak current for leakage. So the floor with reinforced fabric is the major metal barrier for wireless signals in the house. It is almost impossible for the wireless signal to penetrate this barrier. Even if so, the signal is too weak.
3) The working frequency compliant with the standard IEEE 802.11b/g ( 2.4GHz). Most industrial equipments support this working frequency, like microwave oven, Bluetooth device, cordless telephone, or refrigerator. In case of any strong magnetic filed nearby, the wireless network will be disturbed.
4) When two or more wireless devices work in the same environment, there could be channel conflicts or wireless signal cross-talks.
5) Such strong signal interference sources as radio transmitter, welding machine, electric car or high-voltage power transformer within 100m away from the wireless device or cable network may also greatly interfere with the wireless signals or devices.
6) The weather may influence the wireless signals outdoor. Wireless signals are usually weakened obviously in stormy or cloudy days and transmitted farther in sunny days.
2. How can we improve the signal transmission quality?
1) Select the best location to lay the wireless AP as described below:
First, it should be high enough to overcome the barriers and reduce the dead signal area. Second, it should allow direct signal transmission without walls acting as barriers. It is better that the wireless AP is visible to the wireless client in your room.
2) Change the channel to reduce wireless cross-talks. Note: There should be at least 5 channels between your wireless signal transmitting channel and other people’s.
3) Reduce the interference from household appliances to smooth the signals. Lay the wireless AP away from those appliances.
3. Preparation of Peer-to-peer (or Cross) Network Cable
1) Hold RJ45 (crystal head) to keep its clips downward, flat side upward, head outward, and opening towards you. Then we number the 8 holes from left to right respectively 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.
2. Unpack one end of the twisted-pair jacketed and take any two strands (there are four strands) out of the four (one strand in orange white and orange, and the other in green white and green). Insert the four wires into the hole 1, 2, 3, and 6 of RJ45 in order, thereinto, 1+2 in a strand (1: orange white; 2: orange) and 3+6 in the other strand (3: green white; 6: green). Unpack the other end of the twisted-pair jacketed and take out two strands (there are four strands) exactly same as the previous two. Insert the four wires into the hole 1, 2, 3, and 6 of RJ45 in order, thereinto, 1+2 in a strand (1: green white; 2: green) and 3+6 in the other strand (3: orange white; 6: orange). That is, the second end is connected in a reverse way. All wires form two overlapped crosses. (The hole 4, 5, 7, 8 are respectively for wires in blue, blue white, brown white, and brown, with two ends connected in the same way).
