If the default settings on the bridge do not work, you will need to configure the bridge. If the default settings do work, you only need to configure the bridge if the network is in a country or region other than the United States or if there are multiple WGE101 bridges on the network. If you have a Windows® computer you may use the NETGEAR Smart Navigator software to configure basic connection settings on the bridge. This software is included on the WGE101 54 Mbps Wireless Ethernet Bridge Resource CD. Additionally, to make advanced configuration changes the Windows computer must have Internet browser software installed. This reference manual gives you the information you need to use the Smart Navigator to configure a WGE101 bridge. System Requirements Before installing the Smart Navigator, please make sure that these minimum requirements have been met: • You have a Windows computer with: — Windows 98SE, Me, 2000, XP — CD-ROM drive — Built-in Ethernet or an Ethernet adapter card — Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5.0 (or later) or Netscape® 6.0 (or later) WGE101 Operating Modes The WGE101 Wireless Ethernet Bridge operates in either Infrastructure or Ad-Hoc mode. • Infrastructure mode is used when you have an access point or wireless router connected to a wired network. The wireless devices and computers communicate with the wired network (and other wireless devices) through the wireless router or access point. For example, with a wireless router multiple computers (both wired and wireless) can share a single cable or DSL broadband Internet connection. • You use the bridge in Ad-Hoc mode if you have a small, wireless-only network and all the devices have wireless transmitters/receivers. In this case, there’s no need for an access point or a wireless router for the wireless devices communicate directly to one another. WGE101 Default Wireless Configuration Settings The factory default settings for your WGE101 54 Mbps Wireless Ethernet Bridge are: • Mode (Infrastructure or Ad-Hoc): Infrastructure • Wireless network name Service Set Identification (SSID): Any Note: Any means the bridge will connect to the access point or wireless router that has the strongest signal. This may not be the closest access point or wireless router. For the WGE101 Wireless Ethernet Bridge to communicate with a specific wireless router or access point, both devices must be configured with the same SSID. • User ID: admin • Password: password • Authentication type: Auto • WEP security: Disabled • Country/Region: United States Warning: Having the bridge set to the wrong country or region may result in the violation of local laws. WGE101-specific default settings: • IP address: 192.168.0.201 • Protocol: Static • Device name: netgearxxxx (where xxxx is the last 4 digits of the MAC address) • Data rate: b/g combo 1 11 Preparing To Use the Smart Navigator Before you can use the Smart Navigator to configure a WGE101 bridge, you must install the software on a Windows computer and connect the bridge to that computer. Installing the Smart Navigator Software You install the Smart Navigator software from the WGE101 54 Mbps Wireless Ethernet Bridge Resour...
