HITRON CGN2 USER’S GUIDE
Push-Button Configuration
(PBC)
: when the user presses the
PBC
button on
the AP (either a physical button, or a virtual button in the GUI), any user of a
wireless client that supports WPS can press the corresponding
PBC
button on
the client within two minutes to join the network.
Personal Identification Number (PIN) Configuration
: all WPS-capable
devices possess a PIN (usually to be found printed on a sticker on the device’s
housing). When you configure another device to use the same PIN, the two
devices authenticate with one another.
Once authenticated, devices that have joined a network via WPS use the WPA2
security standard.
6.1.6
WMM
WiFi MultiMedia (WMM) is a Quality of Service (QoS) enhancement that allows
prioritization of certain types of data over the wireless network. WMM provides four
data type classifications (in priority order; highest to lowest):
Voice
Video
Best effort
Background
If you wish to improve the performance of voice and video (at the expense of other,
less time-sensitive applications such as Internet browsing and FTP transfers), you
can enable WMM. You can also edit the WMM QoS parameters, but are disadvised
to do so unless you have an extremely good reason to make the changes.
6.2
THE SETUP SCREEN
Use this screen to configure your CGN2’s basic wireless settings. You can turn the
wireless module on or off, select the wireless mode and channel, run WPS and
configure the wireless network’s SSID. You can also configure authentication and
encryption on your wireless network.
NOTE:
It is strongly recommended that you set up security on your network;
otherwise, anyone in the radio coverage area can access your network.

button to begin the Push-Button
Configuration process. You must then press the PBC
button on your client wireless devices within two
minutes in order to register them on your wireless
network.
Click the
PIN
button to begin the PIN configuration
process. In the screen that displays, enter the WPS
PIN that you want to use for the CGN2, or the WPS

WPS Current Status
This displays whether or not the CGN2 is using Wifi
Protected Setup.
SSID Setting
This displays an entry for each of the CGN2’s SSIDs.
NOTE:
You may have additional BSSIDs, depending on
your contract with your service provider.
SSID Name
Enter the name that you want to use for your wireless
network. This is the name that identifies your network,
and to which wireless clients connect.
NOTE:
It is suggested that you change the SSID from its
default, for security reasons.

Hidden
Use this field to make your network visible or invisible to
other wireless devices.
Select the checkbox if you do not want the CGN2 to
broadcast the network name (SSID) to all wireless
devices in the coverage area. Anyone who wants to
connect to the network must know the SSID.
Deselect the checkbox if you want your network
name (SSID) to be public. Anyone with a wireless
device in the coverage area can discover the SSID,
and attempt to connect to the network.
In Service
This field controls whether or not the SSID is in
operation.
NOTE:
This field is user-configurable for the
Primary
SSID
only.
WMM Mode
Select the checkbox if you want to apply Wifi MultiMedia
(WMM) Quality of Service (QoS) settings to this SSID.
Wireless Security
SSID
Select the SSID for which you want to configure
security.
Security Mode
Select the type of security that you want to use.
Select
None
to use no security. Anyone in the
coverage area can enter your network.
Select
WEP
to use the Wired Equivalent Privacy
security protocol.
Select
WPA-Personal
to use the WiFi Protected
Access (Personal) security protocol.
NOTE:
Due to inherent security vulnerabilities, it is
suggested that you use
WEP
only if it is the only
security protocol your wireless clients support.
Under almost all circumstances, you should use
WPA-Personal
.
WEP Settings
NOTE:
These fields are only configurable when you select
WEP
from the
Security
Mode
list.
