v1.0, February 2009
Install the wireless access point and configure LAN and wireless access:
1.
Unpack the box and verify the contents.
2.
Attach the antenna to the antenna port on the rear panel of the wireless access point.
3.
Prepare a computer with an Ethernet adapter. If this computer is already part of your network,
record its TCP/IP configuration settings. Configure the computer with a static IP address of
192.168.0.210 and 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.
4.
Connect an Ethernet cable from the wireless access point to the computer (point A in
). Securely insert the other end of the cable into the wireless access point Ethernet
port (point B in
). The port could auto sense if the cable is straight-through or
cross-over.
5.
Turn on your computer, connect the power adapter to the wireless access point, and verify the
following:
Power
: The power light on the wireless access point should be steady green. If the
power light is not lit, check the connections, and check if the power outlet is
controlled by a wall switch that is turned off.
Status
: The status light on the wireless access point should be blinking red while the
wireless access point starts up. When the startup process is complete, the status light
should be steady green to indicate that the wireless access point is ready.

Tip:
The wireless access point supports Power Over Ethernet (PoE). If you have a
switch that provides PoE, you will not need to use the power adapter to power
the wireless access point. This can be especially convenient when the wireless
access point is installed in a high location far away from a power outlet.
