Channel Number
To communicate with each other, a wireless network occupies one radio
frequency. As the default setting, the KX-HGC200 is preset to
communicate using the channel 6 (2437 MHz).
Client Node
Nodes other than the Master Node in a wireless network.
Device Management dialog box
The dialog box allows you to check and change the setup parameters
written in the Flash-ROM of each KX-HGC200.
IP address
One of the Internet protocols for communicating with the other nodes. For
each wireless computer, setup of the IP address is required. Depending
on whether there is a DHCP server in your home network, how to set an
IP address for each node differs.
Master Node
As the default setting of the KX-HGC200, all the communications
performed in a wireless network are controlled by the Master Node, that is
automatically selected from wireless computers. When the Master Node is
shut down, another wireless computer replaces it automatically, so there
is no need to care about what node is the Master Node. However, it is
possible to set a wireless computer as the Master Node manually. In that
case, do not set more than two one computer as the Master Node.
Network ID
The ID that is created from the Network Name. Actually, this ID is used for
maintaining a wireless network instead of the Network Name. However,
users do not need to care what Network ID is programmed to each node.
Network Management web screen
The web screen can be viewed using Internet Explorer. In the web
screen, the information about the entire wireless network is available
using illustrations or numerical data.
