3-MBPS WIRELESS ETHERNET HUBS, ADAPTERS, AND BRIDGES
To set up two overlapping Wireless Ethernet cells:
1. Install the first Hub wireless Ethernet as high
as possible on a wall, on a high stand, or
attached to the ceiling, using the steps
described in Section 4.1.
2. Install the second Hub so that the two are
closer together than the distance described
under “Distance Between Cells” on page 38.
Adjusting this distance will result in a larger or
smaller overlap area.
3. Set the hopping sequence of the second Hub
so that each Hub has its own different hopping
sequence. For more information, refer to
Hopping Sequence in Section 5.1.5.
4. Set up a wireless workstation at a point
approximately equidistant from the two Hubs
using the procedures described in Section 4.2.
5. Temporarily disconnect the second Hub from
the power supply. Verify reception of radio
signals from the first Hub. Use the LED
Indicators on the front panel of the
Workstation Adapter to check the received
signal strength. The signal strength should be
in the high to medium range.
