TCP/IP CONFIGURATION
After connecting the COM-817 into your network, you should con fi gure
it. The default IP address of the Wireless Access Point is 192.168.1.1,
and the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. These values can be
seen from the LAN.
They can be changed as you desire, as an example we use the default
values for description in this guide.
Connect the local PCs to the LAN ports on the AP. There are then two
ways to con
fi gure the IP address for your PCs:
Confi gure the IP address manually
1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC(s). If you need instructions as
to how to do this, please refer to “ Con
fi guring the PCs.”
2) Con fi gure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx
(“xxx” is from 2 to 254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gateway is
192.168.1.1 (The AP’s default IP address)
Obtain an IP address automatically
1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in “Obtain an IP address automatically”
mode on your PC(s). If you need instructions as to how to do this,
please refer to: “Con
fi guring the PCs.”
2) Power off the AP and PC(s). Then turn on the AP, and restart the
PC(s). The built-in DHCP server will assign IP addresses for the PC(s).
Now, you can run Ping command in the command prompt to verify
the network connection between your PC(s) and the AP. The following
example is in Windows 2000 OS.
