Client Bridge (Infrastructure) Configuration
Click on System, Operating Mode, and select Client Bridge
(Infrastructure). Click Apply, and the device will reboot and ask the user to
log in again. Unplug the RJ-45 cable and connect the SpeedTouch 180 to
your ethernet device for example PC, or gaming console, making your
SpeedTouch 180 function as a wireless adapter. The default IP address of
the SpeedTouch 180 is 10.0.0.140. Assign your ethernet device an IP
address statically within the same subnet, for example, 10.0.0.100, so that
you can open the browser and reach the configuration page by typing the
default IP address 10.0.0.140.
Note: Only one ethernet device may be connected to
the SpeedTouch 180.
Ensure that both the SpeedTouch 180 and the 11g WDS-enabled gateway
are using the same SSID.
If you want to use the SpeedTouch 180 as a wireless adapter connected to
your PC, you must remember to release the IP, and set TCP/IP settings to
"Obtain an IP address automatically" after you finish configuring the
SpeedTouch 180. The SpeedTouch 180 will then obtain the IP from the
gateway for your ethernet device (for example, your Xbox), using DHCP.
