Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,

pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,

may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful

interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off

and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is

connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any

interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for

compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled

environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm

between the radiator & your body.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or

transmitter.

For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be operated. Selection

of other channels is not possible.

The availability of some specific channels and/or operational frequency bands are country

dependent and are firmware programmed at the factory to match the intended destination. The

firmware setting is not accessible by the end user.

Wireless LAN Networking

This section provides background information on wireless LAN networking technology. Consult the

Glossary for definitions of the terminology used in this section.

Transmission Rate (Transfer Rate)

The SMCWBR14S-NL provides various transmission (data) rate options for you to select. In most

networking scenarios, the factory default Best (automatic) setting proves the most efficient. This setting

allows your SMCWBR14S-NL to operate at the maximum transmission (data) rate. When the

communication quality drops below a certain level, the SMCWBR14S-NL automatically switches to a lower

transmission (data) rate. Transmission at lower data speeds is usually more reliable. However, when the

communication quality improves again, the SMCWBR14S-NL gradually increases the transmission (data)

rate again until it reaches the highest available transmission rate.

Types of Wireless Networks

Wireless LAN networking works in either of the two modes: ad-hoc and infrastructure. In infrastructure

mode, wireless devices communicate to a wired LAN via access points. Each access point and its wireless

devices are known as a Basic Service Set (BSS). An Extended Service Set (ESS) is two or more BSSs in the

same subnet. In ad hoc mode (also known as peer-to-peer mode), wireless devices communicate with each

other directly and do not use an access point. This is an Independent BSS (IBSS).

To connect to a wired network within a coverage area using access points, set the operation mode to

Infrastructure (BSS). To set up an independent wireless workgroup without an access point, use Ad-hoc (IBSS)

mode.

AD-HOC (IBSS) NETWORK

Ad-hoc mode does not require an access point or a wired network. Two or more wireless stations

communicate directly to each other. An ad-hoc network may sometimes be referred to as an Independent

Basic Service Set (IBSS).

To set up an ad-hoc network, configure all the stations in ad-hoc mode. Use the same SSID and channel for

each station.

When a number of wireless stations are connected using a single access point, you have a Basic Service Set

(BSS).

In the ESS diagram below, communication is done through the access points, which relay data packets to

other wireless stations or devices connected to the wired network. Wireless stations can then access

resources, such as a printer, on the wired network.

In an ESS environment, users are able to move from one access point to another without losing the

connection. In the diagram below, when the user moves from BSS (1) to BSS (2) the WLAN client devices

automatically switches to the channel used in BSS (2).

Introduction

The SMCWBR14S-NL Draft 11n Wireless 4- port Broadband Router is an high-performance, wireless router that

supports high-speed wireless networking at home, at work or in public places.

Unlike most routers, the SMCWBR14S-NL provides data transfers at up to 300Mbps when using 11n (Draft)

connection. This router is also back compatible with 802.11g or 11b devices. This means that you do not need to

change your entire network to maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 11n’s (Draft) speed when you mix

11n (Draft) and 11b/g devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate when you incorporate the 11n (Draft)

standard into your 11b/g network. You may choose to slowly change your network by gradually replacing the 11b/g

devices with 11n (Draft) devices.
