Important:
•
The PC’s IP address must imperatively fall within the same addressing range as the one used
by the BeWAN Wi-Fi AP54.
•
The PC’s IP address must be unique, i.e. different from the ones used by other devices
present on the local network (other computers, BeWAN Wi-Fi AP54, router…).
•
The PC’s IP address must fall into a range reserved for private networks. Indeed, your local
network must not use addresses that are reserved for the Internet. This would cause problems
when connecting your network to the Internet.
In case of uncertainty regarding these points, check with a network specialist.
