Beyond Quick-Start... - Introduction

Figure 3-2

Connect via a Hub

This method is similar to most standard Ethernet 10Base-T cabling systems.
For “out-of-the-box” installations, the easiest way to access the unit, is by
connecting your LAN administrator’s station and the WavePOINT-II AP
device to the same hub, to ensure that both devices are located on the same
subnet.
