Configuring the Access Point
Using KickStart
You also need to use KickStart after you have reset the Access Point to
factory defaults (see section
2.8.2: ‘Resetting to the default factory
setting’ on page 19 ).
3.4 Using KickStart
KickStart helps you start the Web Interface: it finds all Access Points in
your network and it opens the Web Interface of an Access Point.
If your network uses DHCP or Auto IP to assign IP addresses, KickStart
retrieves the address assigned to the Access Point.
If your network uses static IP addresses, KickStart allows you to change
the IP address settings for an Access Point.
3.4.1 Installing KickStart
You can install KickStart on any PC in the network to which the Access
Point will be connected. Follow the instructions of the installation wizard.
3.4.2 Launch KickStart
Launch KickStart via the
Start
menu. The application starts up.
When you click
Next
, KickStart will search for all Access Points within
range, whether they have been configured properly or not.
3.4.3 Select wireless ethernet device
In the ‘Select wireless ethernet device’ dialog, select the Access Point
you want to configure from the list. Once you have selected an Access
Point, click
Next
to continue.
If the Access Point you are looking for does not appear in the list, click
Rescan
. KickStart will search for Access Points again. For example, use
this to find Access Points that have just been switched on or reset.
These devices may take up to a minute to find an IP address, and they
won’t appear in the list until then.
If the device that you want to manage is not in the list and is not found
after clicking the
Rescan
button, go to section 4.1: ‘If KickStart does not
find the Access Point you are looking for’ on page 33 .
Section 3.4.4: ‘Device data’ on page 23 explains the data in the ‘Select
Wireless Ethernet Device’ dialog.
