3Com wireless technology has all of the benefits of a local area network (LAN) without the constraints and expense of network wiring. 3Com 11a/b/g Wireless LAN products provide easy, affordable, flexible ways to extend wireless networks to more users. This guide shows how..Page 12: Wireless Network Standards
1: I HAPTER NTRODUCTION Wireless Network Understanding the characteristics of the 802.11a and 802.11g standards Standards can help you 802.11a Ratified in 2002, 802.11a is IEEE’s more recent wireless standard. It operates at the 5 Because there are fewer devices in the 5 GHz band, there’s less potential for RF interference.Page 13: Network Configuration And Planning
The workgroup associates with the wired network through a wireless LAN access point such as the 3Com 11a/b/g Wireless LAN Access Point. Infrastructure configurations extend your wireless LAN to devices that would otherwise have to be connected to the wired network.Page 14: Example Configurations
1: I HAPTER NTRODUCTION Example The following examples illustrate ways you can use the Bridge to Configurations configure Ethernet client devices into workgroups. (Details for setting up specific configurations are in “Installing the Bridge” on page 9.) Wireless Infrastructure Network You can connect several computers, including those with non-Windows operating systems, and network printers, as shown in Figure 1.Page 15: Installing The Bridge

Connecting to an The Bridge is designed to be connected to an Ethernet client device such Ethernet Device as a hub, computer, or printer. CAUTION: the Bridge and an access point, which could disrupt network operation, do not connect a Bridge that is set in Wireless Client (Infrastructure) mode directly to the LAN (for example, through a wall port or through a hub that is connected directly to the LAN).Page 22: Connecting To A Network Printer
2: I HAPTER NSTALLING THE Connecting to a You can connect a network printer directly to the Bridge or to a hub that Network Printer is connected to the Bridge. Used this way, the Bridge allows you to place network printers in areas that are not wired for Ethernet. 1 Configure the network printer as you would for connecting it to the wired LAN.Page 23: Checking The Led Indicators

If your network has a DHCP server, an IP address is automatically assigned to the Bridge. It takes approximately one to two minutes for the Bridge to determine if there is a DHCP server on the network. Use the 3Com Wireless Infrastructure Device Manager (Widman) included on the 3Com Installation CD to locate the Bridge on the network and view its IP address.- Page 25 If the Configuration Management System does not start, the Bridge is ■ on a different subnet than the computer.

About UART A Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) is the fundamental hardware for serial communication, controlling the speed and method of data transfer of the serial port. Applications utilizing a network serial port between an RS-232 interface and a wireless device use a TCP/IP socket connection.- Page 47 Configuring UART Settings For proper operation, it is imperative that these settings always match the settings of the device to which the bridge is connected via the RS-232 port. There are two groups of parameters that need to be configured to accomplish this task: UART Settings and Flow Control Settings.
