300 Mbps In-Wall Access Point
User Guide
Parameter
Description
address. The default IP address is 192.168.0.254.
Generally, ensure that this IP address is in the same network segment as the LAN IP
address of your LAN router connected to the internet, so that the AP can access the
internet.
Subnet Mask
It specifies the subnet mask of the IP address of the AP. The default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
Gateway
It specifies the gateway IP address of the AP.
Generally, set the gateway IP address to the LAN IP address of your LAN router
connected to the internet, so that the AP can access the internet.
Primary DNS Server
It specifies the primary DNS server of the AP.
If your LAN router connected to the internet provides the DNS proxy function, this
IP address can be the LAN IP address of the router. Otherwise, enter a correct DNS
server IP address.
Secondary DNS
Server (optional)
It specifies the IP address of the secondary DNS server of the AP. This parameter is
optional.
If a DNS server IP address in addition to the IP address of the primary DNS server is
available, enter the additional IP address in this field.
Device Name
It specifies the name of the AP. By default, the name is the model of the AP, such as
W30APV4.0.
You are recommended to change the name of the AP to indicate the location of the
AP (such as Bedroom), so that you can easily identify the AP when managing many
APs.
Ethernet Mode
It specifies the Ethernet mode of LAN0 of this AP.
Auto-negotiation
: This mode features a high transmission rate but short
transmission distance. Generally, this mode is recommended.
10M half-duplex
: This mode features a long transmission distance but relatively low
transmission rate (usually 10 Mbps).
This mode is recommended only if the Ethernet cable that connects the LAN0 port
of the AP to a peer device exceeds 100 meters. In this case, the connected LAN port
of the peer device must work in auto-negotiation mode. Otherwise, the LAN0 port
of the AP may not be able to properly transmit or receive data.

6.2.1
Manually Setting the IP Address
