4.2 Ethernet Switch and WiFi Interface

Connection to 2N

®

SpeedRoute can be realized by four port Ethernet switch or by

embedded WiFi access point. These interfaces allow a PC/LAN to be connected to

2N

®

SpeedRoute. A proper network address and mask settings are needed for correct

LAN and Internet connections. Use the UTP or STP cables of the CAT5 category at

least for connecting devices to the 2N

®

SpeedRoute Ethernet switch.

Static Network Configuration

If you are using static configuration for all of your LAN devices, you can disable the

2N

®

SpeedRoute DHCP server using the Network > DHCP > Enable options.

Remember to assign your LAN devices the addresses that fall into the same address

area as the IP address assigned to 2N

®

SpeedRoute in order to ensure a correct

function of the Internet connection. To set the IP address and network mask, use the

Network > LAN programming tool menus and the IP and Network mask options.

Dynamic Network Assignment

IP addresses can also be assigned dynamically to network devices. Enable the

2N

®

SpeedRoute DHCP server in the Network > DHCP >Enable menus and set the

automatic IP address obtaining for your network devices connected to

2N

®

SpeedRoute. Set the 2N

®

SpeedRoute IP address and network mask in the

Network > LAN menus using the IP and Network mask parameters, and define the

range of addresses to be assigned to your network devices by the DHCP server in the

Network > DHCP menus using the Start IP and End IP options. All the addresses to

be assigned and the 2N

®

SpeedRoute address must fall into one and the same address

area.

Combination of Static and Dynamic IP Address
Assignment

It is possible to combine dynamic and static IP address assignments. Set the static IP

address for the selected network devices. Enable the automatic IP address obtaining

option for all the other devices. Set the 2N

®

SpeedRoute IP address in the Network >

LAN menus using the IP and Network mask parameters, then enable the DHCP

server in the Network > DHCP > Enable menus and finally set the range of the

dynamically assigned addresses in the Network > DHCP menus using the Start IP

and End IP parameters. All the static and dynamic addresses to be used must fall into

one and the same address area and each address may be assigned just once for the

network to work properly.

WiFi Interface

2N

®

SpeedRoute’s WiFi card operates in the 2.4 a 5 GHz bandwidths, supports the

802.11a/b/g/n standards. To configure the WiFi card use the Wireless menu. You can

set all wireless network parameters, including WiFi security modes and keys.
