Note the following:
•
If the Setup Wizard does not start and your browser displays a security warning,
dismiss the warning. For more information, see Dismiss a browser security warning
on page 38.
•
If the Setup Wizard still does not start, see You cannot log in to the AP [router
mode] on page 232.
7. Follow the prompts.
Note the following:
•
Internet connection: If the AP does not connect to the Internet, check the
connection between the AP and your routing device.
•
New admin password: During the Setup Wizard process, you must set a new
admin password (the local device password) and specify answers to two security
questions (you can choose the questions).
•
New WiFi network name (SSID) and WiFi password: During the Setup Wizard
process, you can set a new WiFi network name (SSID) and WiFi password for the
Wireless 1 network. This SSID and WiFi password replace the default SSID and
WiFi password that are printed on the AP label.
•
Firmware update: During the Setup Wizard process, you can update the firmware
(if new firmware is available).
At the end of the Setup Wizard process, the AP restarts. Do not close the browser
page. Your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device might be disconnected.
8. If your WiFi connection was terminated, reconnect to the AP.
If you set a new WiFi network name (SSID) and WiFi password during the Setup
Wizard process, use your new SSID and WiFi password to reconnect.
9. Log in to the local browser UI again by entering your new local device password.
This is the password that you specified during the Setup Wizard process.
The BASIC Home page displays.
You now must change the operation mode to AP mode.
10. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Router / AP / Bridge Mode.
The Router / AP / Bridge Mode page displays.
11. Select the AP Mode radio button.
We recommend that you leave the Get dynamically from existing access
point/router button selected to let the AP get an IP address dynamically from the
routing device in your network.
