These commands are potentially dangerous as they allow you to overwrite your system disk
unintentionally, so please double-check the destination disk. WILIBOX is not responsible for any
damages caused by improper use of low-level disk write utilities or the given disk images.

Step 1. Download purchased WILI WRAP.2C FW archive from WILIBOX website, Store area. Registration
is required to access your store archive.

Step 2. Extract downloaded WILI WRAP.2C FW archive to temporary folder. You will find files: boot.img,
vmlinuz and initrd.img

Step 3. Remove Compact Flash card from WRAP.2C board. Make sure the power is switched off.

Step 4. Insert Compact Flash to USB writer device. Compact Flash is ready now for WILI WRAP.2C image.

Step 5. Write boot image to selected Compact Flash

Under Linux:

$ dd if=boot.img of=/dev/sda

/dev/sda is the name of you Compact Flash writer device and may be different (e.g. /dev/sdb, /dev/hd<X>,
where X is your hard disk drive).

Under Windows:

Use !PhysDiskWrite utility. In command line type:

physdiskwrite.exe boot.img

Reinsert Compact Flash to refresh file system. Three partitions should appear.

The PhysDiskWrite utility is written by Manuel Kasper as part of m0n0wall project. It is not
required that you use this utility to write boot image but it is the one that was tested by us.
You can use any other utility that can write on a medium raw image of a disk (e.g. dd for
Windows or !WinImage).

Step 6. Copy files vmlinuz and initrd.img to the first partition of Compact Flash card next to boot directory
under Linux, <Flash driver letter>: under Windows.

ready for using.

Connect WILI based WRAP.2C to Your Network

To prepare your WILI based WRAP.2C for use only the standard connection setup is needed. See the
following list to check if you have everything ready for WILI based WRAP.2C:

◊ Prepared WRAP.2C (see section above how to prepare your WILI based WRAP.2C)
◊ Internet connection
◊ DHCP server enabled on LAN (optional)
◊ Administrator computer
◊ WILI client (e.g. your laptop with wireless connection)

Standard Connection Setup

Connect WILI based WRAP.2C to your network as shown in scheme below. The example of the network with
RCMS server presented below shows the optimal range of possibilities provided by WILI. RCMS server is an
optional product revealing the full functionality of WILI management but it is not mandatory.

Follow the instructions to prepare your WILI based device ready for use:

Step 1. Connect prepared WRAP.2C board to the same LAN as Administrator computer via WAN interface.
Your local network should have the Internet connection.

Step 2. Make sure the DHCP server is enabled on your network and WILI WRAP.2C is on the same LAN.
WILI WRAP.2C is DHCP client in default status. . If there is no DHCP server running on your network, the
WILI WRAP.2c will respond to the static IP address 192.168.2.66.

Step 3. Prepare WILI client: make sure wireless communication is turned on.

Licensing Your WILI based Device

After having purchased WILI you get a license key. This key need to be uploaded on WILI based device at
once. Once you have licensed WILI it unlocks all functionality and can be used for unlimited period of time.
After licensing the device it will be set to a valid licensing status and you will get the full scope of benefits:

◊ Full functionality of the purchased WILI firmware release

◊ 1-year free service release updates according to the purchased WILI firmware revision.
During this year any of service release firmware revisions can be used for the unlimited
period of time.
◊ 2-weeks support assistance: 10 business days, up to 5 hours, e-mail communication and
answer provided within 2 business days.

WILI firmware you have purchased comes with no license included (not valid status). This status provides
only a very limited functionality:

◊ It runs only with a default configuration. Only a single BSSID is allowed; DHCP client runs
on WAN interface, DHCP servers run on LAN and Wireless interfaces.
◊ It is impossible to change the configuration. All features are locked down until a valid license
is presented. Any changes made in configuration will be stored in the flash memory of the
device. Thus only a default setting will be used after the reboot.

Follow the simple diagram on how to license your WILI device:
