rovided by the ISP correctly. This item must be filled in.

On-demand Connection:
nnection: If you select the on
on-demand
demand connection mode, the

system will automatically connect when there is a network access request from the

local area network. If there is no network request within the set time (automatic

disconnection waiting time), the system will automatically disconnect. For users

who are billed based on usage time, this connection method can be selected to

effectively save Internet access costs.

Automatic Connection:
onnection: If the automatic connection mode is selected, the

system will automatically

atically connect after power on. During use, if the network is

disconnected due to external reasons, the system will try to connect at regular

intervals until the connection is successful. If your network service is a monthly

is 1492. Please ask the ISP if you need to change it, and don't change it unless it is

specifically needed.

5.4 Wireless Settings

The wireless settings mainly set the basic parameters of the router wireless

network. The first SSID is reserved by the system and can be edited but not deleted.

The maximum number of SSIDs is 16. As shown below:

Client Isolation: Communication control between wireless clients. After being

turned on, wireless clients cannot communicate with each other. Off by default.

Hidden SSID: When the hidden SSID is turned on, the wireless client will not be

able to search for this SSID information.

- 51 -
 Security Settings: This router supports three security settings: open, WPA /

WPA2-Personal, WPA / WPA2-Enterprise.

The OPEN mode does not need to set a password, and the wireless client can

directly access;

In WPA / WPA2-Persional mode, the user need to set a password with a length

of 8 to 63 characters;

WPA / WPA2-Enterprise mode is authenticated by the radius server, so you

need to bind the radius template. For details, refer to section 2.5.4.

5.5 Radio Settings

The radio setting page displays all radio information in a list with no new

- 52 -
features. Click " Edit " in the operation column to modify the radio settings,

including status, channel, channel bandwidth, transmit power, multicast rate, STBC

mode, Beacon interval, DTIM period, RTS period, max clients, etc., as shown below:

5.6 DHCP Server

DHCP refers to the Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The WL8200-T3 (IT3) has a

built-in DHCP server that can automatically assign IP addresses to computers in the

local area network. It is not easy for users to configure TCP / IP protocol parameters

for all computers in the local area network. It includes IP address, subnet mask,

gateway, DNS server, etc. The DHCP service can solve these problems.

5.6.1 DHCP Server

Click "DHCP Server">> "DHCP Server" on the left menu to set the DHCP server

parameters. As shown below:

- 53 -
 IP Pool Start Address and IP Pool End Address: These two items are the start

address and end address when the DHCP server automatically allocates IP

addresses. After setting these two items, the IP address obtained by the intranet

host will be between these two addresses.

Address Lease: This item refers to the valid use time of the dynamic IP address

assigned by the DHCP server to the client host. During this time, the server will not

assign IP addresses to other hosts.

Default Gateway: This item should be filled in the IP address of the router LAN

port. The default is 192.168.1.10.

DNS Server: Enter the DNS server provided by the ISP.

5.6.2 Client List

Click "DHCP Server"-> "Client List" on the left menu, you can see the

information of all the hosts that have obtained the IP address through the DHCP

server. As shown below:

- 54 -
 Client Name: This field displays the client name that has obtained the IP

address.

MAC Address: This field displays the MAC address of the client that obtained

the IP address.

IP Address: This field displays the IP address assigned by the DHCP server to

the client host.

Effective Time: This item refers to the lease period of the IP address obtained by

the client host. Each IP address has a certain lease time, and the client software will

automatically renew the lease before it expires.

Status: The online / offline status of the client that has obtained the IP address

is displayed here.。

5.6.3 Static IP Distribution

Click "DHCP Server">>"Static IP Distribution" on the left menu to manually set

a static IP address.

The static reserved IP address assignment function can reserve IP addresses for

- 55 -
specific clients, allowing IP addresses to establish a fixed binding relationship with

MAC addresses.

For a client that has established a binding relationship, when requesting an IP

address, the DHCP server preferentially assigns a bound IP address to it. As shown

below:

MAC Address: The MAC address of the client that will reserve the IP address.

IP address: Refers to the IP address reserved for the client.

Status: The status displays "Effective" or "Ineffective", that is, only binding rules

marked as "Effective" will take effect.

New Entry: Click this button, you can add a new reserved address entry in the

subsequent interface, as shown below:

- 56 -
 Enable Entry: Click this button to make the selected item effective.

Disable Entry: Click this button to invalidate selected items.

Delete Entry: Click this button to delete all entries in the table.。

5.7 System Maintenance

5.7.1 IP Session Control

Click "System Maintenance"-"IP Session Control" on the left menu to enter the

IP session control page, where you can set the number of TCP connections that

each client can use simultaneously. If the number of connections reaches the

specified number, the new TCP connections will be rejected. Note that closed TCP

connections are not counted in the number of connections.

The default is 0, which means unlimited. As shown below:

- 57 -
5.7.2 Network Timing

 Appendix A FAQS

Question 1: How to restore the factory settings if the user forgets the device

password?

Take WL8200-X10 as an example. In the power

power-on
on state, long press the Reset

button for 5 seconds and release the reset button, the AP will restore the factory

settings and restart. After restart, the user name and password are reset to the

initial user name and password.

After restoring the factory settings, all settings will be deleted and restored to fit

mode.

There may be differences between different products. Fo

Forr details, please refer to
the product specifications.

Question 2: Can't open the device webpage using the default address of

192.168.1.10?

The address 192.168.1.10 is the default static address of the device. It may

happen that the device webpage cannot b

bee opened through this address in the

following situations:

1. When the AP is in fit mode or fat bridge mode

(1) The device may have obtained another IP address through the POE port.

Please access it through the current address of the AP.

(2) The IP address of the device may be modified;

2. When the AP is in fat routing mode:

(1) The device used to access the AP is located on the WAN side of the AP.

- 60 -
Please access the AP from the lan side.

(2) The address on the LAN side of the device may have been modified by the

administrator;

Question 3: After switching from thefit mode or the fat bridge mode to the fat

routing mode, the page cannot be returned, and refresh cannot be accessed?

When switching from other modes to routing mode to access the network, in

order to ensure security, WAN-side device access is blocked by default. If the device

is accessed from the POE port side before the switching, the switching will fail to

return and cannot access. You need to ensure that you are accessing the device

using https://192.168.1.10 on the LAN side or WLAN device.
