Basic Setup  
Begin by finding a good place to set up your router/access point. Some things to  
consider:  
You’ll need to be able to plug your internet connection into it, so it should go within  
reach of the LAN cable from your DSL or Cable modem. You’ll also want a power outlet  
nearby.  
Keep the access point as central in your work area as possible. Signal strength and  
speed fall off with distance.  
Higher is often better. For instance, set it up on the top shelf of a bookcase rather than  
the bottom one, if possible.  
the antenna into the top of your AirStation. It will probably work best if  
ent it to point straight up.

Getting Ready  
Make note of the AirStation’s wired MAC address. The LAN  
or Wired MAC address is the default SSID (wireless network  
name) of the AirStation. You can find it on the bottom of the  
AirStation.  
You may also wish to contact your ISP to ask if other information, such as global IP  
address, subnet mask address, default gateway address, DNS server address, or PPPoE  
parameters, is necessary to access your internet connection. Write down any necessary  
information that your ISP requires for connection.  
Buffalo recommends using a wired network connection, where your computer is  
physically connected to the AirStation with a CAT5 straight cable plugged into one of the  
four LAN ports, to initially set up your router. This type of setup will eliminate possible  
setup problems with the wireless adapter on the computer being used to configure the  
AirStation.  
The computer used to configure the AirStation should be set to obtain an IP address  
automatically using a DHCP server. The WHR-HP-AG108 has a default LAN IP address of  
192.168.11.1 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0.

Connecting your AirStation  
1. Power down the Cable or DSL modem and the computer which will be used to  
configure the AirStation router.  
2. Plug the Cable or DSL’s LAN Ethernet cable into the AirStation’s WAN port. Initially,  
you may need to unplug this cable from your computer, hub or other router.  
3. Plug the provided Ethernet cable into a LAN port on the AirStation and plug the other  
end into your computer’s Ethernet adapter (NIC). If you plan to initially configure the  
AirStation wirelessly (not recommended), you may skip this step.  
4. Power on your cable or DSL modem and wait one full minute, then power on the  
AirStation router and wait one full minute, and finally power on the computer which  
will be used to configure the AirStation. If the red DIAG light on the AirStation is lit or  
flashing after several minutes of being powered on, please consult Buffalo Technology  
Technical Support.

Log in to the Configuration Tool  
Launch a web browser on the computer that you’re  
going to use to configure the AirStation.  
Enter 192.168.11.1 into the URL field. Naturally, if you  
change your AirStation’s IP address, you’ll have to enter  
the new address instead.  
A window will open, prompting you to enter a User ID  
and Password.  
Enter root as the User name and leave the password  
field blank unless you have previously configured a  
password.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Detecting Your Broadband Connection  
Your AirStation’s SmartRouter technology will determine the type of internet  
connection you have automatically, and ask you for any needed information. If  
your ISP assigns IPs automatically (most cable providers do), their DHCP server  
will give your router an IP address. If additional login information is required  
to connect to the internet, the wizard will ask for it. Enter any required login  
information if asked. Contact your DSL  
provider for any missing login information.  
If your DSL provider requires that PPPoE  
information be entered manually, see page  
25.

Home  
This is the opening page of your  
AirStation’s configuration tool. You  
can always get to it from within the  
configuration screens by clicking on  
Home. From here, you can configure  
port mapping for your internet games,  
turn on UPnP for Windows (MSN)  
Messenger, configure your Firewall,  
setup Encryption, choose your Wireless

AOSS  
AOSS (AirStation One-Touch Secure System) is a simple system for configuring  
your wireless network securely. If your router and your client device are  
installed and both support AOSS, then making a secure wireless connection  
between them is very easy.  
Push the AOSS button on the top of your router and hold it in for a few  
seconds. The AOSS light will begin to flash amber. You now have two minutes  
to push the AOSS button on your client device and finish the connection.  
If you have a standalone client device,  
it will probably have a little red button  
labled “AOSS” on it. Push the button!  
About 15 seconds later, you’ll have a  
secure network connection.  
If your client device is a PCI or CardBus  
card, CardBus, the AOSS button will  
probably be in its Client Manager  
Software. Check your client device’s  
user manual for instructions on where  
to push or click the AOSS button.

After you’ve pressed both buttons, it will  
take about 15 seconds for the connection to complete. When it’s finished, the AOSS light  
will glow a solid amber. You now have a secure network connection!

AOSS Notes  
Some things to keep in mind  
Only one AOSS wireless client adapter can be configured with the AOSS router at a  
time. The buttons will need to be re-pressed to connect each additional AOSS wireless  
client adapter.  
It is not necessary to AOSS client devices that have already been configured via AOSS,  
unless significant changes have been made to the wireless network.  
Do not attempt to configure two separate AOSS networks at the same time, as it may  
cause undesired configurations.  
If an undesired client has connected via AOSS, it can be disconnected from within the  
WHR-HP-AG108’s advanced configuration menus.

802.11a (Basic)  
The SSID or network name can be changed  
by entering a custom SSID and pressing  
the Apply button.  
Be careful changing the settings  
under “Advanced Settings”. It’s safe  
to experiment with different SuperAG  
settings, but don’t change the other  
advanced settings unless you have a  
reason to do so.  
SuperAG technology uses channel bonding  
to maximize data throughput. The  
enhanced performance is only available to  
computer or wireless devices that have a  
compatible SuperA or SuperG card, like the Buffalo High Power Dual A + G Wireless USB  
2.0 Adapter. SuperAG mode allows wireless network speeds up to 108* Mbps. Use with  
compression is recommended to use SuperAG on A band. To use SuperAG on G band,  
see page 43.

ꢂ1  
802.11a (Security)  
Buffalo recommends that you choose  
the strongest form of encryption that’s  
supported by all your client devices.  
WEP is a lot better than nothing, and  
almost every wireless device ever made  
supports it.  
TKIP is slower than WEP but much more  
secure.  
AES is the most secure of all, and the  
quickest as well. Use it if you can.  
Setting the key renewal period too short  
can decrease network performance.  
By default, the AirStation broadcasts its SSID. This makes it easier for clients to connect  
to the AirStation. To disable broadcasting, uncheck this box.  
Privacy Seperator prevents wireless clients from being able to browse each other’s

802.11g (Basic)  
f you have a mixed mode network,  
with both 802.11b and 802.11g clients,  
t’s recommended that you check 11g  
protection to ensure that slower 11b clients  
don’t hog all available bandwidth.  
Choosing Auto for Wireless mode lets both  
802.11b and 802.11g clients connect to  
the network. If you would prefer to allow  
only one or the other, you have those  
options as well.  
Be careful changing settings under  
“Advanced Settings”. 802.11g Protection  
and SuperAG settings are safe to  
experiment with, but don’t change the  
other advanced settings unless you have a  
reason to do so.  
SuperAG technology uses channel bonding to maximize data throughput. The enhanced  
performance is only available to computer or wireless devices that have a compatible  
SuperA or SuperG card, like the Buffalo High Power Dual A + G Wireless USB 2.0  
Adapter. SuperAG mode allows wireless network speeds up to 108* Mbps. Use with  
compression is recommended to use SuperAG on G band.

802.11g (Security)  
Buffalo recommends that you choose  
the strongest form of encryption that’s  
supported by all your client devices.  
WEP is a lot better than nothing, and  
almost every wireless device ever made  
supports it.  
TKIP is slower than WEP but much more  
secure.  
AES is the most secure of all, and the  
quickest as well. Use it if you can.  
Setting the key renewal period too short  
can decrease network performance.  
By default, the AirStation broadcasts its SSID. This makes it easier for clients to connect  
to the AirStation. To disable broadcasting, uncheck this box.  
Privacy Seperator prevents wireless clients from being able to browse each other’s  
computers. Check Enable to turn it on.
