Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)

Both WLAN standards IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g have been developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic
Engineers (IEEE). The 802.11b technology can reach a transmission rate of up to 11 Mbit/s, 54 Mbit/s are possible with
the 802.11g technology.
The XSBoxR4v supports both standards. WLAN adapters, which are based on one of these standards can establish con-
nections to XSBoxR4v. Coverage within WLAN depends very much on the WLAN adapter used as well as the structural
conditions. WLAN devices with differing standards can establish a connection simultaneously and in parallel to the
XSBoxR4v. XSBoxR4v has an internal WLAN antenna, which is not visible on the housing.

Administration interface

The XSBoxR4v administration interface can be reached with a browser. Enter this address in the address line of your
browser: http://192.168.0.1. The browser must be JavaScript and CSS enabled (e.g. Microsoft Internet Explorer from
version 5.5 or Mozilla Firefox).
Note: Please configure your browser so that Javascript is enabled.

DHCP server

XSBoxR4v has its own DHCP server. This is activated in the factory settings. Every computer which is connected hereto
will be allocated an IP address from the DHCP server. It is possible to allocate fixed IP addresses directly to the network
set-up for computers, which are connected to the XSBoxR4v. The following IP addresses are reserved and may not be
used, as the operating mode depends upon these:

192.168.0.1

192.168.0.10 up to 192.168.0.200

Note: Should the XSBoxR4v be used in a network, then no other DHCP server should be operated in this network.
