The AP is configured at the factory to operate correctly out-of-the-box. Simply
connecting the AP to your existing network will instantly add wireless capa-
bilities to your network with no further configuration required. Belkin ships
software that will allow you to locate and connect to the Access Point on
your network so you can easily change or modify the settings if you wish.
Before you can use the software, you must physically install the Access Point.
Once the AP is installed, you can use the software to modify the settings.
Follow the steps below to install your AP.

Verify the contents of your box. You should have the following:

1. Select a suitable place for your AP as described in the previous section of

switch, or hub. Connect the power supply to the AP by plugging the round
DC connector into the DC jack on the AP. Plug the power supply into the
wall. Verify that the Power LED and the Link LED are illuminated. If both
LEDs are illuminated, this indicates that the AP is connected properly.
