ALL0274 User Guide
Using Client Mode
In client mode, the ALL0274's Ethernet port must be connected to your PC's Ethernet port.
Before using client mode, ensure that the Client Mode configuration is correct.
•
Configuration must be performed in Config mode. Admin connections are not possible
while in Client mode.
•
See Chapter 6 for details of Client mode setup.
If the configuration is correct, the procedure for using client mode is as follows:
1. Use a standard LAN cable to connect the Ethernet port on the ALL0274 to your PC.
2. Use the mode selector switch on the side on the ALL0274 to select "Client" mode.
3. Wait for the restart to be completed, and the Wireless LED to come On.
4. The ALL0274 will then connect, if possible, to the Wireless LAN specified by the current
Client Profile.
•
You cannot connect to the ALL0274 while in Client Mode. You must specify the de-
sired Wireless LAN using Config mode.
•
In Client Mode, the ALL0274 is transparent; it does not have an IP address.
5. You can check the "Properties" of your PC's Ethernet connection to see if it has obtained a
valid IP address:
•
If using
Infrastructure
mode (connecting to an Access Point), the IP address must be
a valid IP address on the LAN to which the Access Point is connected.
•
If using
Ad-hoc
mode, the IP address should be self-assigned ("Auto-configuration").
If other PCs in the Ad-hoc Wireless LAN behave the same way, everyone will have
compatible IP addresses.
