3.0 Securing a wireless networ k
To avoid having uninvited guests probing your wireless network we strongly
recommend securing your wireless network. There are several security methods
which can secure the network at different levels. To apply a method to your network it
is required that all wireless net work devic es support this method. The stronges t
method of security is WPA2 (WiFi Protected Access).
The strongest method of security is WPA2 AES. It is recommended to use this type of
security. However, it is possible that (older) wireless hardware is not able to use this
type of security, but can only use WPA-TKIP or WEP. Refer to the documentation of
your hardware to be sure if your hardware can use WPA2 AES.
If you wish to use WPA2 AES security, continue with paragraph 3.1 (recommended). If
you wish to use WEP security, continue with paragraph 3.2
3.1 WPA2 AES security for 5GHz

- Repeater
In the following instruct i ons we will inform you how to setup your router as Access
Point or Repeater.
6.1 Access Point ( AP )
Important! Before we change the operation mode to Access Point we need to
provide a static IP address to our network adapter, while the DHCP server from
the EM4710 will be disabled. If you did not have a static IP address you cannot
longer login to your router due to no IP address will be provided anymore from
your router. We will use Windows 10 to show you the instructions how to add a
static IP address to your network adapter.
1. Make sure your modem or router is not connected to your EM4710. Connect your
EM4710 via LAN port to your LAN port of your PC or Laptop by using a network
cable.
2. Click on the Windows start menu icon, type “Control Panel” in the search bar
and click on “Control Panel”. You will see t he foll owing screen:
