A NANO STATION WIFI SET UP AND CONFIGURATION
A nano station packs some phenomenal performance with a revolutionary design combining a high speed 4 antenna system, advanced radio architecture, and researched and developed firmware technology allowing throughput, stability and capacity performance rivaling even the highest end WiMax networks.
SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
The system has been proven in extreme temperature and weather conditions. Additionally it has ESD/EMP immunity design to protect against common outdoor radio and Ethernet failures and eliminate truck rolls for
carriers
Ubiquiti’s First Indoor Commercial WiFi Routers
Introducing AirRouter,Ubiquitis first indoor commercial WiFi router featuring powerful airOS features. Its capable of connecting 100m away at 150 Mbps speeds.
This type is designed in such away that it suits 5 by 10/100 base tx and also one can use cat 5e cable with an RJ45 connectors on a provisional Ethernet port,USB port and integrated antenna.
CONFIGURING A NANO STATION
You should always ensure that all the connections are done well before starting the configuration of the system i.e this entails all the elements of crimping, cable management and so on. The colour coding when crimping might differ but the commonly used is white of orange orange, white of green blue,whiteof blue green and finally white of brown brown.Whith all the above processes met, you are now ready to go with your procedural configuration steps;
ü The most reminder one should have at the back of the mind is the default information for airOS and is as follows; default ip 192.168.1.20,default username ubnt and default password ubnt.
ü Anytime a factory default reset is done on AirOS it will return to this values
Make sure the nano is connected to your computers network card with the network cables ,via the power injector supplied with 12v(either from the wall-wart or another 12vdc source).There should there be at least one LED lit on the back of the nano station. On the original shipping box you will find and write down the default ip (192.168.1.20) and username and password should be ubnt in small caps as earlier stated.NB:DO NOT LOSE THESE INFORMATION.
SETTING UP STEPS
1) Set you comp to communicate with the nano station
2) Programmed nano station as receiver(station)and router
3) Choose and connect to a WIFI signal
- Open start
- Control panel
- Network connections(Only on windows xp)
- Enable your network card :under lan or high speed internet ,open lan connection and enable ,if there is a built WIFI card ,it should be disabled, right click and choose on disable
- Right click on lan and choose on properties, enable or disable each task as appropriate
- Double click on internet protocol, fill in the check boxes as a appropriate, click ok twice, there should be 2 LEDs lit on the nanostation
- We’re now entering a static (fixed)ip address, this will be your computer’s ip 192.168.1.1/24 as the gateway and a192.168.1.25 as the ip of the machining :The nano station will be acting like the DNS server. Remember the ip of the machine can be anything from 1 to 254 except 20 that is already taken.
