AP Setup
Host name
Assigning a name to an AP makes it easier to identify on the network. Enter a name of up to 16
alphanumeric characters.
IP address
Sets the IP address of the AP. The factory default setting is specified on a sticker on the AP case.
Always set the IP address. When setting via a LAN using a browser running on a PC, the network
address of the AP must be the same as the network address of the PC.
Subnet mask
If using a subnet, specify the subnet mask.
Default gateway
Specify the IP address of the router for the network to which the AP belongs.
Language setting
Select either “Japanese” or “English” for the terminal and browser display language. The factory default
setting is “English”.
Password
Set a password. Enter a string of up to 31 single-byte alphanumeric characters. The password is case
sensitive. No password has been entered by factory default. At the password input prompt when starting
software setup, you can log in by clicking on the [Setting] button with no password entry.
If you forget your password, initialize the AP using the DIP switch (INIT).
The password is cleared when the AP is initialized. Note, however, that initializing the AP resets all of
its settings to their factory defaults, requiring you to make settings over again. For using the DIP
switches, see Chapter 3.
Ethernet
Port speed
Select the port speed setting. Select one of “Auto”, “100M Full Duplex”, “100M half Duplex”, “10M
Full Duplex”, or “10M half Duplex”. The factory default setting is “Auto”.
Link down sense
Enabling “link down sense” stops the wireless capabilities when the wired link of the access point is
disconnected. The factory default setting is “disable”.
