Testing Communication Link
After you have configured at least two of the Model 195Eg wireless Ethernet modems for operation, you can
verify communication with each the following steps:
Status Light – The quickest source of link status is to
view the Status Light on the face of the 195Eg. If the
Status light is solid, the Model 195Eg has a
connection to another Model 195Eg listed in the Peer
Table.
Status Screen/Peer Table – To view further
information on the status of the communication link
(such as connection speed, signal strength and last
update time) you can open the Status Screen from the Web Interface. After press the Status tab at the top of the
screen the Status: Summary will be displayed showing the status of all ports and memory in the 195Eg. Under the
Wireless Status heading click on the View Peer Table (Figure 5). The Peer Table will list all other 802.11b or
802.11g wireless activity seen by the 195Eg and how it is classified.
Find the opposite 195Eg in the Repeater Peers list and information such as signal strength (in dBm), background
noise (in dBm), and time/speed of last data packet will be displayed.
