Update Module Firmware

The module’s firmware may be updated using the web interface; please refer to Table 5 for the
procedure to do this.
Updating the firmware will not alter any existing configuration files or certificates loaded on the
module.
You will first need to obtain the version of firmware you wish to install from the Quatech website
or Quatech technical support. The firmware will be a binary image file (.img) and indicate the
version of the firmware in the file name.

 4-4. Wi-Fi Glossary EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol)
Defines how to pass authentication information between the device and authentication server. The
Access Point authentication is handled by the EAP type: FAST, TLS, TTLS, etc.
An interface between a wireless network and a wired network. Access points can be used with Ethernet
or other communications to enable roaming throughout a facility.
FAST (Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling)
Cisco Systems® developed this authentication protocol. It does not use certificates to authenticate, but a
Ad-Hoc Mode PAC (Protected Access Credential), which is managed dynamically by the server. The PAC is distributed
A wireless network composed of devices that contain a network interface card and no access point. one at a time to the client manually or automatically.
Ad-Hoc mode is also called peer-to-peer (point-to-point) communications or BSS network. As long as the
devices are in range and are on the same channel and SSID, they connect and communicate. Use this
mode if a wireless infrastructure does not exist or where services are not required. Gateway
Allows connections (communications) between different subnets on a network.
Authentication Method
Identifies users on a network, based on a username and password. There are two types, open and Infrastructure Mode
shared. Authentication protocols include LEAP, PEAP, TLS, TTLS, EAP-FAST, and PSK. Requires an access point to communicate with other devices on the network. In infrastructure mode,
wireless devices can communicate with each other or with a wired network.
Auto Method
One of the available boot methods. Auto tries DHCP, BOOTP, and RARP, then sets to the last IP address
used if the IP address is not automatically set using any of the previous methods. IP Address

specified range to devices (such as printers) when they are first turned on. The device keeps the IP MSCHAPv2

Authentication mode of WPA used in SOHO environments. The key value(or pass-phrase) is used for
network authentication only (not data encryption). It does not use a RADIUS server like the other modes,
but uses a shared key to provide the initial authentication with the access point or host. Subnet Mask

have ranges of IP addresses that can be described by one or more masks. For example, a mask of
