Application Guide — EIPR Series

Application #10 — Wi-Fi Access Point via the USB Port

The resident USB port on the EIPR-E allows expansion

to wireless networks once an appropriate wireless

adapter is inserted into the port. One possibility is

implementing a Wi-Fi access point — thereby

increasing the number of LAN-side clients.

After connecting a USB Wi-Fi adapter (IEEE 802.11b,

802.11g, etc.), the EIPR can become a Wi-Fi access

point. This will allow Wi-Fi devices to wirelessly

communicate with the EIPR and with each other. Each

wirelessly connected Wi-Fi device can receive a DHCP

assigned address from the EIPR. When wirelessly

connected, each Wi-Fi device can also communicate

directly with any EIPR LAN-connected devices and can

also route through the EIPR WAN port for access to

other subnets or to the Internet. The EIPR supports

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected

Access (WPA, WPA2) security in its communications.

The other EIPR features, such as port forwarding, can

also be applied to the wirelessly connected Wi-Fi

devices. A list of supported Wi-Fi adapters can be

found on the Contemporary Controls website under the

EIPR product page.
