Membuat RT/RW WIFI-Banyaknya pertanyaan yang diajukan ke penulis mengenai panduan peralatan yang dibutuhkan membuat RT RW Net, mendorong kami menuliskannya dalam blog ini,
pertama yang anda siapkan, adalah bahwa anda sudah memiliki koneksi internet Unlimited di tempat atau rumah yang akan dijadikan sebagai pemancar Wireless LAN(WLAN) anda.
Peralatan yang dibutuhkan antara lain :
1. Access Point

Fungsi Access Point ibaratnya sebagai Hub/Switch di jaringan lokal, yang bertindak untuk menghubungkan jaringan lokal dengan jaringan wireless/nirkabel para client/tetangga anda, di access point inilah koneksi internet dari tempat anda dipancarkan atau dikirim melalui gelombang radio, ukuran kekuatan sinyal juga mempengaruhi area coverage yang akan dijangkau, semakin tinggi kekuatan sinyal(ukurannya dalam satuan dBm atau mW) semakin luas jangkauannya.


2. Antena Omni


Untuk memperluas coverage area hingga beberapa Kilometer, anda memerlukan antena omni eksternal, meski ketika anda membeli access point sudah dilengkapi antena omni, namun belumlah cukup karena hanya berkekuatan sekitar 3-5dB, untuk memperluas area jangkauannya, anda memerlukan antena Omni eksternal, yang rata-rata berkekuatan 15dB.
Antena Omni ini memiliki pancaran atau radiasi 360 derajat, jadi cocok bisa menjangkau client dari arah mana saja.

3. Box Access Point

Untuk melindungi access point anda, maka diperlukan pelindung berbentuk kotak, bisa terbuat dari plastik atau plat besi, rata-rata kotak ini sudah dilengkapi dengan kunci pengaman, dan box ini memang harus diletakkan persis di bawah antena.

4. Kabel Pigtail/Kabel Jumper

Kabel Pigtail atau kabel jumperl diperlukan untuk menghubungkan antara antena omni dengan dengan access point, perhatikan panjang maksimal yang diperlukan hanya 1 meter, selebih dari itu anda akan mengalami degradasi sinyal(loss dB) Pada kedua ujung kabel terdapat konektor dimana type konektor disesuaikan dengan konektor yang melekat pada access point anda.


5. POE (Power Over Ethernet)

Agar kabel listrik tidak dinaikkan ke atas untuk "menghidupkan" access point maka anda memerlukan alat "POE" ini yang fungsinya mengalirkan listrik melalui kabel ethernet atau kabel UTP/STP, dengan alat ini maka anda tidak perlu repot-repot lagi mengulur kabel listrik ke atas tower, lebih praktis dan hemat.

6. Kabel UTP/STP

Meski namanya perangkat wireless, namun peranan kabel juga diperlukan, kabel UTP/STP ini diperlukan untuk menghubungkan antara access point dengan jaringan kabel pada LAN lokal anda, jadi di bawah dia bisa ditancapkan ke komputer Gateway/Router atau ke Hub/Switch, pilihlah kabel UTP/STP yang berkualitas baik guna meningkatkan kualitas arus listrik yang dilewatkan melalui POE.

7. Penangkal Petir (Lightning Arrester)

Sebagai pengaman dari petir maka anda memerlukan alat ini yang berfungsi menyalurkan kelebihan beban listrik saat petir menyambar ke kabel pembumian(grounding), komponen ini dipasang pada kabel jumper antara perangkat access point dengan antena eksternal. Grounding untuk penangkal petir umumnya ditanam dengan batang tembaga hingga kedalaman beberapa meter sampai mencapai sumber air. Ingat grounding yang kurang baik akan menyebabkan perangkat wireless tetap rentan terhadap serangan petir.

8. Tower
Guna mendapatkan jangkauan area coverage yang maksimal, anda perlu menaikkan antena omni eksternal ke tempat yang tinggi agar client WLAN anda bisa menangkap sinyal radio anda dengan baik.


## PERANGKAT CLIENT WLAN ##

Pada sisi client, untuk menangkap sinyal dari "antena omni" anda maka perangkat client sbb :
1. Untuk Client yang jaraknya dari tempat pemancar kurang dari 1 KM, lebih ekonomis jika menggunakan wajan bolic, dimana pada perangkat tersebut biasanya sudah dilengkapi dengan USB Wifi, yang disambungkan dengan kabel UTP plus kabel extended USB, jadi langsung anda bisa menancapkannya ke komputer.


2. Apabila jarak client lebih dari 1 KM, anda membutuhkan 2 perangkat, pertama, access point dan kedua antena eksternal pengarah atau type grid untuk menangkap sinyal dari pemancar anda. Berikut rekomendasinya :
- Jarak 0-1 KM, pakailah wajan bolic lebih ekonomis
- Jarak 1-2 KM, Akses poin merk Edimax/Minitar/Linksys, antenanya anda bisa
pakai Yagi atau Backfire
- Jarak 2-3 KM, Akses poin merk Edimax/Minitar/Linksys, antena Grid 24db
- Jarak 3-10 KM. Akses poin merk Senao SL2611/Mikrotik, antena Grid 24db
- Jarak 10 KM lebih, Akses poin merk Senao ECCB3220/Mikrotik, antena Grid
24db.

Linux

Linux (lee'nuhks/ or /li'nuks/,_not_/li:'nuhks) is a free and open-source operating system developed by Linus Torvalds and friends and was first announced by Linus in a post he made August 25, 1991. The Linux kernel runs on numerous different platforms including the Intel and Alpha platform and is available under the GNU General Public License.

The system can be distributed, used, and expanded free of charge. In this way, developers have access to all the source codes, thus being able to integrate new functions or to find and eliminate programming bugs quickly. Thereby drivers for new adapters (SCSI controller, graphics cards, etc.) can be integrated very rapidly.
Linux may be obtained in two different ways. All the necessary components can be downloaded free of charge from the Internet. This means that an individual operating system can be assembled for almost nothing. An alternative is to use a so-called Distribution, offered by various companies and including a wide range of applications and installation programs that significantly simplify the installation of Linux.
Presently, Linux is successfully being used by several millions of users worldwide. The composition of user groups varies from private users, training companies, universities, research centers right through to commercial users and companies, who view Linux as a real alternative to other operating systems.

Linux distributions, flavors, and variants

There are hundreds of different distributions of Linux that have been released. Below are just a few that we currently have listed on our site. A great site that lists almost every distribution as well as rankings is DistroWatch.

• CentOS
• Chrome OS
• Crunchbang Linux
• Damn Small Linux (DSL)
• Debian
• Gentoo
• Linpus Linux
• Puppy Linux
• Rasbian
• Red Hat
• Slackware Linux
• SparkyLinux
• SUSE Linux
• Ubuntu
• VectorLinux

Top 10 Facebook tips

Below is a listing of our top 10 tips for the popular social networking website Facebook.

Hide users, games, polls, etc.

It quickly gets annoying seeing some users posts, game invites, polls, etc. Hovering your mouse to the right of the post and clicking the Hide button as shown below can hide any post. Once this button is pressed you'll be prompted with the option to hide that user or in the case of a Facebook application the option to hide that application from ever showing up on your profile.

To unhide someone or unblock an application click the Edit Options link in the bottom right corner of the news feed as shown below.

Greasemonkey and FB Purity

Although Facebook does not allow the ability to hide friends getting new friends messages, friends becoming fans of something, and some application messages they can still be hidden with browser add-ons. If you're running Mozilla Firefox, Chrome, Opera, or Safari we suggest installing the Facebook Purity add-on.

Update your privacy settings

Click Account in the top right corner of the Facebook window and then click Privacy settings to adjust who is capable of seeing what on your Facebook profile. We highly recommend going through all the privacy settings to verify your privacy is properly protected.

Anything that is not set to friends only or friends of friends can be seen by anyone searching on the Internet. Below is a few things we recommend for most users.

1. Under Search in Privacy settings uncheck Public Search Results. This will prevent users from finding your account and profile picture in search results such as Google
2. Under Application settings, make sure you're only allowing applications you want to have access to your information. Applications that you grant rights to can have access to your Facebook profile information.

• If you're curious to see how a program or web page connect to the Facebook API can see your profile see Tip135.

Use the Facebook top bar for navigation

Knowing how to properly navigate is vital if you want to get the most out of Facebook. Below is a brief description of each of the available options in the top bar as shown above.

Home (facebook logo) - Clicking this logo takes you to your wall (News Feed) that shows all friends recent posts.

Friend requests - If any friend requests are waiting to be approved this icon shows a notification of how many friends are waiting for approval. This icon can also be clicked when you want to view any friend recommendations or search for friends on Facebook.

Messages - This section allows you to send and receive private messages between one or more people you're friends with.

Notifications - Any time a friend or Facebook application creates a new post you'll be notified in this section. Clicking this icon shows all recent notifications. If you want to change what is capable of sending you notifications including any Facebook applications or games click the See All Notifications link at the bottom and check or uncheck what you want to be notified on.

Search - Finally, the search box in Facebook can be a powerful tool that can be used to quickly find any current friends or people on Facebook. In addition searching for terms such as a company name, product, sports team, music band, etc. will find fan pages and groups that can be joined.

Modify your account notifications

Keep your e-mail and your cell phone clean by updating or eliminate Facebook notifications or keep more up-to-date by adding new notifications. Facebook notifications can be added and removed by clicking Account link in the top right corner, then Account Settings, and then clicking the Notifications tab.

Top News and Most Recent

By default Facebook displays your wall postings in the News format, which means it only displays posts it believes are most relevant to you. These results are based on your past interaction with your friends. If you want to see every post made by all your friends that are not hidden click the Most recent link in the upper right section of your news feed as shown in the above picture example.

If you want to adjust who shows up manually click the Edit Options in the bottom right corner of your news feed.

View High School work friends

If you've added your High School or previous Work locations to your profile, quickly see all classmates and co-workers on Facebook by clicking the link in your Info tab under your profile.

Quickly change profile picture

Your profile picture can be quickly changed to any other picture by visiting your profile, hovering the mouse over your current profile picture, and clicking the Change Picture link that appears in the top right corner of the picture.

Don't post private information on friend's walls on in comments

When you make a post on a friend's wall or in any of their comments realize that any of their friends are going to be able to see that post. If you want for something to remain only between you and a friend send them a Facebook message instead.

Suggestions and random friend invites

As you get more friends on Facebook it will begin making friend, groups, and fan suggestions. These are suggestions made by Facebook and not your friends. Unless these are something you're interested in they can be ignored.

This same rule can be applied to people who may want to be your friend that you don't know. If you don't know someone don't accept his or her friend invite. Once someone becomes your friend they'll have access to any information your friends are capable of seeing.

Tag your Facebook friends in your photos

Always make sure to tag any of your Facebook friends that are in pictures you upload. However, never tag someone who is not in the picture. When someone is tagged in a photo that picture is automatically added to that persons profile and is a great way to share pictures with all friends.

Top 10 computer mouse tips everyone should know

Most computer users don't take full advantage of the computer Mouse. Below are computer mouse tips and secrets that help you get the full potential of your computer mouse and increase your overall productivity while on the computer.

Shift key and mouse click

Many text editors and programs allow you to highlight all or portions of text using the Shift key and the mouse. For example, click at the beginning of a text in the below text box, hold down the Shift key, scroll to the bottom, and click at the end of the text to highlight all of the text.

This is example text to help demonstrate how you can highlight lots of text with only a few clicks. If you were to click at the start of this paragraph hold down the shift key and scroll to the bottom and click everything in-between the two clicks will be selected. This is so much easier than dragging your mouse if you are working with pages and pages of text that you want to highlight. REPEAT: This is example text to help demonstrate how you can highlight lots of text with only a few clicks. If you were to click at the start of this paragraph hold down the shift key and scroll to the bottom and click everything in-between the two clicks will be selected. This is so much easier than dragging your mouse if you are working with pages and pages of text that you want to highlight.

Bonus tip: Holding down the Alt key while dragging and highlighting text in a text editor allows you to selectively highlight text. This can be useful if your paragraph or other text is in a column.

Take full advantage of the scroll wheel

Today, everyone is familiar with a mouse wheels ability to scroll up and down on a page. However, this wheel can also do so much more, below are just a few examples.

• The mouse wheel is not just a wheel, it can also be used as a button. Pressing down on the wheel will act like a third mouse button. This can be used to open a web page in a tab by clicking the wheel on any link and can also be used to close a tab by clicking the wheel on any open tab.
• Zoom in and Out on a web page, word document, excel spreadsheet, etc. by holding down the Ctrl key and scrolling up to zoom in and down to zoom out.
• Holding down the Shift key while scrolling up or down in most Internet browsers to go back and forward between web pages.
• Some mouse wheels can be pushed left or right to also move back and forward on a web page.

Select with double and triple click

Any word can be selected by double-clicking the word. If you want to highlight the whole paragraph or sentence, click the mouse button three times on any word. Try it now on this paragraph by clicking three times fast on any word in the paragraph.

Bonus Tip: If you double-click and then drag your mouse it will highlight one word at a time.

Use the right-click

Take full advantage of the right-click any time you highlight text or want to view the properties of an object. For example, if you highlight a file or text, you can right-click that highlighted item copy it and then right-click anywhere else to paste it.

Bonus Tip: If you highlight or select any file or text and then click and drag it while hold the right button, when you let go the option to move or copy that file or text. This saves you the extra step of having to right-click where you want to paste the item.

Bonus Tip: While in a browser pressing and holding Ctrl while clicking on any link opens a menu with options for that link.

Ctrl key and mouse click or highlight

While holding down the Ctrl key you can left-click to select multiple objects or highlight multiple sections of text. For example, in the below selection box if you wanted to highlight more than one of the items listed you could hold down Ctrl and select each item you want highlighted.

Bonus Tip: Mozilla Firefox users can also hold down the Ctrl key and individually click on each cell in a table they want to copy or drag their mouse down a row to select just that row or text without selecting any of the other text in that table.

Use the mouse side buttons

Many new computer mice also have buttons on the side of the mouse. These buttons can be programmed to do anything, however, by default the left-thumb button can be used to go back on a web page. This makes browsing the Internet more enjoyable since you do not need to move the mouse cursor to the browser back arrow button in order to go back a page.

Use the Windows Snap To feature

Take full advantage of the Windows mouse Snap To feature, which will automatically move your mouse to buttons that appear in a dialog box. For example, if you delete a file or close a window you may get a prompt asking you if you are sure you want to perform the task. With the Snap To feature enabled, the mouse cursor automatically moves to the Ok button, so all you have to do is click the mouse button if you agree. This saves you the time of having to move the mouse cursor over to the Ok button and then click Ok.

To enable this feature open the Mouse properties under the Windows Control Panel and check the Snap To check box under the Pointer Options tab.

Bonus Tip: While changing this feature we also suggest looking at other available options in the Mouse settings. For example, increasing the Motion speed can also help increase your productivity while using the mouse.

Manage the open window with the mouse

Double-click the top title bar of any window to maximize a window or if it is already maximized resize it to a window. You can also double-click the icon for the window in the top-left corner of the window to close that window.

Move the mouse with your keyboard

Instead of using the mouse that came with your computer you can also enable Windows to use the number pad as a mouse.

Customize your mouse

Finally, if you have a mouse with more than two buttons, installing the included mouse software allows you to customize the mouse even more. For example, if you don't use the side buttons to move back and forth in a web page change it to something you do more often, such as switching between open windows or opening the calculator.

Know your hot corners

The corners on your screen are hot corners and give you access to different Windows features. Below, is a brief explanation of each of these corners.

Bottom Left-hand corner

The bottom left-hand hot corner of the screen allows you to access the Start screen, if you're in the Start screen and have the Desktop open, this corner opens the Desktop from the Start screen.

Tip: Right-clicking in the left hand corner opens the power user menu.

Top-left corner of the screen

Moving the mouse to the top-left corner and then down displays all the apps running on the computer. Clicking and dragging any of these apps to the left or right-hand side of the screen will snap that app to that side of the screen. Each of these open app icons can also be right-clicked to close or snap.

Right-hand side of the screen

On the full right-hand side of the screen will be given access to the Windows Charms.

Taking advantage of search

The Search in Windows 8 has been significantly improved when compared to all previous versions of Windows. To search for a file or run a program in Windows 8 from the Start screen just start typing what you're trying to find or want to run.

As you begin typing, the results will start appearing on the left-hand side. In addition to being able to search for files and run programs, the Search also supports limiting the search to apps such as Finance, People, Maps, Photos, Mail, Music, Videos, Weather, and much more. If what you are searching for is not a file or program, click on the app you want to use as the search. For example, if you were searching for "New York" and selected the Weather App you would be shown the weather in New York, NY.

By default, Search organizes the available Apps by how frequently they are used and then in alphabetical order. If you want to keep your favorite app at the top of the Search list, right-click the app and choose Pin. Pinning the app will lock it in place regardless of how often it is used. If there is an app you don't want (e.g. Finance) you can turn on and off any of the search apps through the PC settings, which is found under the Settings in the Charms.

Bonus tip: The Search is also found through Charms and can also be opened by pressing Windows key + F.

Running two apps side by side

Any app can be pinned to the left or right-hand side of the screen. For example, open the People app and then press the Windows Key + . (period) to move that app to the right-hand side of the screen, pressing the same keys again will move it to the left-hand side, and pressing the same keys again makes it full screen. While an app is pinned, any other app or program can be opened and loaded into the available space on the screen. For example, in the picture below, we've opened a browser window and have the People app running to monitor our social networks.

Any open app can also be pinned using your mouse by clicking at the top of the tile and dragging it to the left or right-hand side of the screen.

Bonus tip: The Desktop can also be pinned to the left or right-hand side of the screen.

Note: In order for snap to work properly your resolution must be at least 1,366 x 768.

Windows 8 Task Manager

The Windows 8 Task Manager has been significantly improved over previous versions of Windows. Some of the new changes include showing a total percent usage at the top of your Processes, which makes it easier to determine total memory and CPU usage, improved Performance graphs, a Startup tab to see startup processes and their impact to system performance, and the App history tab (as shown below) that gives you the total resources an app has used over a period of time. Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to start exploring the new Task Manager.

Top 10 keyboard shortcuts everyone should know

Using keyboard shortcuts can greatly increase your productivity, reduce repetitive strain, and help keep you focused. For example, highlighting text with the keyboard and pressing Ctrl + C is much faster than taking your hand from the keyboard, highlighting the text using the mouse, clicking copy from the file menu, and then putting your hand back in place on the keyboard.

Holding down the Ctrl key while pressing the left or right arrow will move the cursor one word at a time instead of one character at a time. If you wanted to highlight one word at a time, you can hold down Ctrl + Shift and then press the left or right arrow key to move one word at a time in that direction while highlighting each word.

Ctrl + S

While working on a document or other file in almost every program, pressing Ctrl + S saves that file. This shortcut key should be used frequently anytime you're working on anything important.

Ctrl + Home or Ctrl + End

Ctrl + Home will move the cursor to the beginning of the document and Ctrl + End will move the cursor to the end of a document. These shortcuts work with most documents, as well as web pages.

Ctrl + P

Open a print preview of the current page or document being viewed. For example, press Ctrl + P now to view a print preview of this page.

Page Up, Space bar, and Page Down

Pressing either the page up or page down key will move that page one page at a time in that direction. When browsing the Internet, pressing the space bar also moves the page down one page at a time.

Tip: If you are using the space bar to go down one page at a time, press the Shift key and space bar to go up one page at a time.

Other Recommended Shortcuts

We also recommend the following keyboard shortcuts, as they can be very useful:

Ctrl + O

Allows you to select and open a file within the current software program. This works in most programs, including Internet browsers.

F2

After highlighting or selecting a file, pressing F2 changes the file name to be editable, allowing you to rename the file.

How do I clean an Inkjet printer?

 
Over time Inkjet printers can become dirty due to excess ink "leaking" out of the ink cartridges. Ink can build up on major components of the printer, causing the print quality to decrease. When this occurs, it may be necessary to clean the printer.

Tip: Before following any of the steps below be sure to try the printer self-cleaning feature. All printers today have some type of self-cleaning ability that is usually accessed by pressing and holding one or more of the buttons on the front of the printer. If this doesn't help or if the printer needs cleaning beyond what the self-cleaning is capable of doing, try the steps below.

To clean your printer, there are several areas that you need to focus on:

• Print Heads
• Ribbon
• Ink Reservoir
• Stabilizer Bar

Many printers include the print heads on the ink cartridges themselves. To clean these, remove the ink cartridges from the printer. Take a piece of paper towel, fold it into quarters and apply some isopropyl alcohol to it and rub the paper towel gently along the print heads on the back or underside of the ink cartridges. Running the paper towel along the print heads several times should be adequate to remove most, if not all, of the ink build-up.

Next, takes some window cleaner (e.g. Windex) and spray it on a piece of paper towel, then clean the ribbon that sits behind the ink cartridge tray. The ribbon is typically white in color.

Then, using a cotton swab, clean up any ink build-up in the bottom of the ink cartridge tray (the ink reservoir). If necessary, you could use a little bit of alcohol on a cotton swab to help clean up the ink.

Lastly, using some sewing machine oil or printer oil, place a few small spots of oil along the stabilizer bar, which is the bar that the ink cartridge tray slides along. This can also help reduce squeaking, crunching, and grinding printer noises.

You may also want to check the paper pickup rollers in the back of the printer. Usually, printers have a back panel that opens up, allowing you to see and access these rollers. Clean these rollers with either a cotton swab with alcohol or window cleaner. You can also use some canned air to blow out any pieces of paper shreds that have built up inside the printer.

Cleaning a Printer

Benefits: When your print job isn’t up to par, you can get rid of smudges, white lines and reduce paper jams by simply cleaning your printer. Of course, the real benefit of cleaning is that it saves you money by prolonging the life of your printer! Your first step in cleaning a printer is always to check your manufacturer’s documentation. If you don’t have a written manual, most manufacturers provide tips on what not to do and provide support for even older printer models on their web sites. Use only the cleaners that your manufacturer recommends and clean only recommended areas of your printer.
Tip: Search for terms like printer maintenance, printer cleaning, and troubleshooting.
Tip: Always check both your manufacturer’s documentation and warnings and advisories on cleaning products to be sure they are compatible with your printer and the cleaning job that needs to be done.
Cleaning the Outside of Your Printer
1. Turn your printer off before cleaning.
2. Clean the outside of your printer with a moist, lint-free cloth. Flour sacking or 100% cotton white t-shirt material works well.
3. Usually a solution of one part vinegar and one part water is safe to use, but when moistening a cloth, be sure to wring out all the excess. Distilled or RO (reverse osmosis) water minimizes mineral residues. If you do use a prepared cleaner, make sure it is safe for both electronics and plastics.
4. Always moisten the cloth. Never spray an aerosol directly onto your printer.
Cleaning a Laser Printer
1. Turn the printer off, unplug it, and allow it to cool down before you begin.
2. Remove the internal paper trays.
3. Remove the toner cartridge and place it on a piece of clean paper.
4. Clean inside the toner cavity with a dry, lint-free cloth and printer brush.
5. Clean the printer mirror gently with the brush. Don't touch the mirror if a brush isn't provided.
6. Wipe away dust and spilled toner. Remove paper fragments.
7. Clean the rollers, but don’t touch the transfer (sponge) roller.
8. Replace the toner cartridge.
Tip: Exposure to light can damage toner cartridges. Always cover your toner cartridge with an extra lint-free cloth or piece of paper after removing it.
Cleaning an Inkjet Printer
Most inkjets have a self-cleaning process you can access from your printer’s control panel. If that process doesn’t remedy the problem, try one of the following. Remember to check your manufacturer’s documentation and the product documentation to be sure it is right for your printer.
1. Inkjet cleaning cartridges flush dirt and debris out of clogged printer nozzles, restoring the quality of your prints and prolonging the life of your print heads. However, take care that the cleaning fluid you use is approved for your brand and model of printer.
2. Before cleaning inside your inkjet, turn it off and unplug it. Let it cool down if necessary.
3. Dust, hair, and lint from inexpensive papers can gum up your printer’s rollers. A computer vacuum is usually a safe way to remove debris.
4. Roller cleaning sheets can help in cleaning print rollers. Again, check documentation before use.
Tip: Most manufacturers recommend against using compressed air since the propellant may add moisture to the inside of your printer.

Membuat RT/RW WIFI

Membuat RT/RW WIFI-Banyaknya pertanyaan yang diajukan ke penulis mengenai panduan peralatan yang dibutuhkan membuat RT RW Net, mendorong kami menuliskannya dalam blog ini,
pertama yang anda siapkan, adalah bahwa anda sudah memiliki koneksi internet Unlimited di tempat atau rumah yang akan dijadikan sebagai pemancar Wireless LAN(WLAN) anda.
Peralatan yang dibutuhkan antara lain :
1. Access Point

Fungsi Access Point ibaratnya sebagai Hub/Switch di jaringan lokal, yang bertindak untuk menghubungkan jaringan lokal dengan jaringan wireless/nirkabel para client/tetangga anda, di access point inilah koneksi internet dari tempat anda dipancarkan atau dikirim melalui gelombang radio, ukuran kekuatan sinyal juga mempengaruhi area coverage yang akan dijangkau, semakin tinggi kekuatan sinyal(ukurannya dalam satuan dBm atau mW) semakin luas jangkauannya.


2. Antena Omni


Untuk memperluas coverage area hingga beberapa Kilometer, anda memerlukan antena omni eksternal, meski ketika anda membeli access point sudah dilengkapi antena omni, namun belumlah cukup karena hanya berkekuatan sekitar 3-5dB, untuk memperluas area jangkauannya, anda memerlukan antena Omni eksternal, yang rata-rata berkekuatan 15dB.
Antena Omni ini memiliki pancaran atau radiasi 360 derajat, jadi cocok bisa menjangkau client dari arah mana saja.

3. Box Access Point

Untuk melindungi access point anda, maka diperlukan pelindung berbentuk kotak, bisa terbuat dari plastik atau plat besi, rata-rata kotak ini sudah dilengkapi dengan kunci pengaman, dan box ini memang harus diletakkan persis di bawah antena.

4. Kabel Pigtail/Kabel Jumper

Kabel Pigtail atau kabel jumperl diperlukan untuk menghubungkan antara antena omni dengan dengan access point, perhatikan panjang maksimal yang diperlukan hanya 1 meter, selebih dari itu anda akan mengalami degradasi sinyal(loss dB) Pada kedua ujung kabel terdapat konektor dimana type konektor disesuaikan dengan konektor yang melekat pada access point anda.


5. POE (Power Over Ethernet)

Agar kabel listrik tidak dinaikkan ke atas untuk "menghidupkan" access point maka anda memerlukan alat "POE" ini yang fungsinya mengalirkan listrik melalui kabel ethernet atau kabel UTP/STP, dengan alat ini maka anda tidak perlu repot-repot lagi mengulur kabel listrik ke atas tower, lebih praktis dan hemat.

6. Kabel UTP/STP

Meski namanya perangkat wireless, namun peranan kabel juga diperlukan, kabel UTP/STP ini diperlukan untuk menghubungkan antara access point dengan jaringan kabel pada LAN lokal anda, jadi di bawah dia bisa ditancapkan ke komputer Gateway/Router atau ke Hub/Switch, pilihlah kabel UTP/STP yang berkualitas baik guna meningkatkan kualitas arus listrik yang dilewatkan melalui POE.

7. Penangkal Petir (Lightning Arrester)

Sebagai pengaman dari petir maka anda memerlukan alat ini yang berfungsi menyalurkan kelebihan beban listrik saat petir menyambar ke kabel pembumian(grounding), komponen ini dipasang pada kabel jumper antara perangkat access point dengan antena eksternal. Grounding untuk penangkal petir umumnya ditanam dengan batang tembaga hingga kedalaman beberapa meter sampai mencapai sumber air. Ingat grounding yang kurang baik akan menyebabkan perangkat wireless tetap rentan terhadap serangan petir.

8. Tower
Guna mendapatkan jangkauan area coverage yang maksimal, anda perlu menaikkan antena omni eksternal ke tempat yang tinggi agar client WLAN anda bisa menangkap sinyal radio anda dengan baik.


## PERANGKAT CLIENT WLAN ##

Pada sisi client, untuk menangkap sinyal dari "antena omni" anda maka perangkat client sbb :
1. Untuk Client yang jaraknya dari tempat pemancar kurang dari 1 KM, lebih ekonomis jika menggunakan wajan bolic, dimana pada perangkat tersebut biasanya sudah dilengkapi dengan USB Wifi, yang disambungkan dengan kabel UTP plus kabel extended USB, jadi langsung anda bisa menancapkannya ke komputer.


2. Apabila jarak client lebih dari 1 KM, anda membutuhkan 2 perangkat, pertama, access point dan kedua antena eksternal pengarah atau type grid untuk menangkap sinyal dari pemancar anda. Berikut rekomendasinya :
- Jarak 0-1 KM, pakailah wajan bolic lebih ekonomis
- Jarak 1-2 KM, Akses poin merk Edimax/Minitar/Linksys, antenanya anda bisa
pakai Yagi atau Backfire
- Jarak 2-3 KM, Akses poin merk Edimax/Minitar/Linksys, antena Grid 24db
- Jarak 3-10 KM. Akses poin merk Senao SL2611/Mikrotik, antena Grid 24db
- Jarak 10 KM lebih, Akses poin merk Senao ECCB3220/Mikrotik, antena Grid
24db.
